Here is a PDF save of the CHM or "help" file for Version 4. Hopefully, it will help a few guys out (like me:)) who need a manual to follow until the developer releases the official manual. The bookmarks have been created to help finding info. Cheers.

Nice. I just wish the parts about the web server and JSON API would get a thorough update. Would be a lot easier than sniffing mobile app communications to reverse engineer the features that aren't documented.

Is there a stand alone official manual for BI currently available I can download?
I do not have BI yet but would like to read through a manual that would discuss all of BI's settings, options and full functionality descriptions if such a thing exists so I can better review and compare it to other software NVR options out there.

No, the help file is always evolving. Download the demo and read it or convert it.

I dont yet have a windows computer, (imac now..would be buying on the sole decision of chosing to use BI or not), so is kind of a catch situation at the moment...I'll check out the attachment. Outdated will be better than nothing.
Thx

Thanks again for editing the help file, so that now it looks a bit more like a manual and printable as well.:)

In my opinion, the help file was not a really a manual but just a guide to read.
I have a hard time understand the guide, the information is not listed in natural order.
I have to search the FAQ for answer or even type: CTRL + F, to find out certain terminology/word that I don't understand.
But sometimes, I just need to do trial and error approach.i.e. try this and see what will happen. :)

Which Manual you want? If you want Mthievin's just click on the pdf file (scroll to the very top)
The downloading pdf file will begin ( you must logged into the forum first)

Or alternatively, if you have no time to read the manual.....which to me is a bit confusing,
you can try watching a video tutorials from a guy called Richard who made a fantastic
youtube tutorial on BI:HomeTech Video

The help file is the manual.
The PDF above is seriously outdated.

Thanks, but I wan't something to be printed, so I asked for some PDF.
I can't learn without a paper, need putting notes and stickers on it.

Then print your own, Google explains how to convert the file.
