2.02 TECHNICAL OVERVIEW

Your DVR can replace both a time-lapse VCR and a multiplexer in a security installation. However, it has many features that make it much more powerful and easier to use than even the most advanced VCR.

The DVR converts analog NTSC or PAL video to digital images and records them on a hard disk drive. Using a hard disk drive allows you to access recorded video almost instantaneously; there is no need to rewind tape. The technology also allows you to view recorded video while the DVR continues recording video.

Digitally recorded video has several advantages over analog video recorded on tape. There is no need to adjust tracking. You can freeze frames, fast forward, fast reverse, slow forward and slow reverse without image streaking or tearing. Digital video can be indexed by time or events, and you can instantly view video after selecting the time or event.

Your DVR can be set up for event or time-lapse recording. You can define times to record, and the schedule can change for different days of the week and user defined holidays.

The DVR can be set up to alert you when the hard disk drive is full, or it can be set up to record over the oldest video once the disk is full.

Your DVR uses a proprietary encryption scheme making it nearly impossible to alter video.

You can view live video, search image, and control your DVR remotely by connecting via modem or Ethernet. There is a USB port that can used to back up the clip file video to USB-IDE hard disk drives, USB CD-RW drives or flash drives.

2.04 OPERATION / SYSTEM CONTROL

A.  Live Monitoring

1.  The DVR shows live video on either the attached composite or VGA monitor. It supports single, 2x2 and sequence mode display.

2.  The DVR will control cameras with additional PTZ controls as well as basic control; Pan, Tilt and Zoom capabilities. The user can control the camera using GUI controls or by setting up presets. More than 50 types of PTZ camera protocols are compatible with the DVR.

3.  The DVR can hide the video of the selected camera. The user has two options; Covert 1 and Covert 2. When a camera is set up as Covert 1, the DVR displays the camera title and status icons on the covert video. When set up as Covert 2, the DVR displays only the camera title on the covert video.

4.  The DVR can display camera ID, recording status and text-in information on the screen.

B.  Recording

1.  The DVR offers a variety of flexible recording modes. The user can set it up to record all the time or to only record events. It can be set up to continue recording once the hard disk drive is full by recording over the oldest video, or the user can set it up to stop recording when the hard disk is full.

2.  The DVR can record at Standard (CIF) and High (Half D1). The factory default resolution is Standard (CIF). When set to Standard (CIF) the DVR has a maximum recording speed of 120 ips (100 ips for PAL). When set to High (Half D1), the DVR has a maximum recording speed of 60 ips (50 ips for PAL).

3.  If the DVR is set up to record audio, it will record audio from up to 1 input.

4.  The DVR supports not only normal scheduling but also advanced scheduling for after-work hour, on alarm and on priority alarm can be established.

5.  The DVR supports pre-alarm recording from 1 to 300 seconds.

C.  Playback & Search

1.  The DVR provides various search filters for fast retrieval; Calendar, Go To, Date & Time, Event, and search based on Text-string content.

2.  The DVR and Remote Access Software can save any video clip as an “.exe” (Minibank) file. The Minibank file is a self-executable file that includes the compressed video, audio, text and thus does not require additional program to play the video clip on MS Windows based PCs. The Remote Access Software can save the current images as a bitmap or JPEG file. The DVR can save the recorded data onto USB flash memory or onto a USB CD-R(W) drive or USB-IDE hard drive.

3.  The DVR supports one-to-one camera recording action for each event (Alarm In, Motion, Video Loss, Text-in).

D.  Others

1.  It is possible to review the Minibank video clip file on your PC without installing any special software. The file is self executable.

2.  The DVR can trigger alarm or other actions when something happens to video input, such as a video signal loss, text-in or motion event.

3.  The DVR can send an e-mail when events (sensor, motion, video loss, Text-in and/or stop recording) occur.

4.  The DVR has built-in video motion detector. Video motion detector can be programmed for each camera to define regions of interest and sensitivity to trigger video motion detection.

5.  The Self-diagnosis and notification of system status including standard S.M.A.R.T. Protocol are provided for the DVR which allows diagnose the system and hard disk drive status.

6.  It is possible to synchronize the time between the DVRs and a network time server.

7.  The DVR can load saved settings, save the current settings, and load default settings.

8.  The RASplus (Remote Administration System software) can be used for remote access. The user can view video or control the DVR remotely via LAN.
