3. The Digital Video Recording (DVR) and Transmission System shall provide a powerful, intelligent, enterprise-class, digital storage tool that combines Video, Motion Video, Audio, and Data capabilities in a single DVR. This system must be designed to record, search, and transmit Video, Motion Video, Audio and Data transactions, both live and post-event.

4. The Digital Video Recording (DVR) and Transmission System’s default priority shall be to capture and store video, motion video, audio, data and alarms. The system must be configurable to prioritize live viewing and retrieval of video, if required.

5. The Digital Video Recording (DVR) and Transmission System shall be compatible with most existing and new video equipment and incorporate into any TCP/IP or dialup network. Communication options shall include LAN, WAN, Internet, and PSTN, all utilizing the system’s standard equipment, without the need for additional hardware. Compatibility with ISDN and DSL must be supported using additional hardware. The system shall allow for retrieval of system files, and remote software upgrades, utilizing any of the communication options. Simultaneous multiple connections utilizing different network and/or communication types shall be supported.

6. The Digital Video Recording (DVR) and Transmission System shall use an authenticated, proprietary file format (REM) for the integrity of evidence.

7. The Digital Video Recording (DVR) and Transmission System shall allow the user to regulate the data rate, defining the size, frequency, and threshold. This shall allow smaller blocks of data to pass unhindered by larger blocks of data, and ensure that images and system messages are delivered as quickly as possible within the capabilities of the network’s available bandwidth.

8. The Digital Video Recording (DVR) and Transmission System and its components shall be thoroughly tested before shipping from the manufacturer’s facility.

9. The system shall consist of four (4) major components:

a. DVR.

b. A mouse-driven, local user interface (“LocalView”) that requires only a mouse and VGA monitor to operate and configure the DVR.

c. Administration software (“ADMIN”), that runs on a Microsoft Windows-based, personal computer (PC). The Administration software is used for configuring communications from PCs to DVRs, administrating operator accounts for the Digital Video Recording (DVR) and Transmission System, setting up the sequential touring of DVRs and configuring communications from DVR to Alarm Station. The data about multiple DVRs must be stored in a database.

d. Remote viewing software (“VIEW”) running on a PC, to view video from a DVR and to configure communications to hardware connected to the DVR.

B. The DVR shall include, as a minimum, the following features/functions/specifications:

1. The DVR’s operating system shall be Linux, a secure, stable, and multi-tasking networked real-time operating system designed to be used in a distributed environment. Windows® and other non real-time based operating systems are not acceptable.

2. The DVR must be offered in a minimum of six (6) standard configurations, allowing the choice of length of time for storage of video as a function of video capture rate, with maximum settings of either 480 images per second (IPS), NTSC at CIF, or 400 IPS, PAL at CIF. Each standard configuration must include a writable digital video disc drive (DVD-RW) and/or a universal serial bus (USB) port to record incident clips onsite. The same DVR must operate set to either NTSC or PAL utilizing identical software, at either 120VAC or 240 VAC.

3. The DVR must be engineered for durability and expandability, and be of a rugged, modular design, suited for desktop or rack-mount installations. It shall be designed to fit into a 19” EIA rack without additional hardware, or in an optional slide rack-mount kit for convenient servicing and installation.

4. The DVR shall record in a continuous mode (circular buffer), offering either a choice of five (5) different resolutions (NTSC), selectable on a per camera basis: 160× 120, 320 × 240, 640 × 240, 640 × 480 or 704 × 480, or a choice of four (4) different resolutions (PAL), selectable on a per camera basis: 192× 144, 384 × 288, 704 × 288 or 704 × 576. The resolution setting for recording video must be configurable by the Administrator of the DVR for each camera and be automatically optimized for the display of live video transmissions. The recording format shall feature 24-bit, true color with over sixteen (16) million colors, in YCrCb 4:2:0, in a modified H.261/263 Discrete Cosine Transformation (DCT) format, with proprietary Dual Threshold processing, yielding high quality with low bit rate.

5. The DVR shall offer long-term digital storage for recorded Video, Motion Video, Audio, and Data. The DVR must be available in 250, 500, and 1000 GB standard storage versions. The DVR must be able to provide storage capacity up to 4.0 TB with the addition of expansion Hard Drives. The manufacturer’s web site shall include a storage estimator for estimating the typical number of days the DVR will record, based upon the hard-drive capacity of the DVR, desired update rate (IPS), and the number of cameras being recorded.
