Regulatory Notices
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
RADIO AND TELEVISION INTERFERENCE
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits of a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
Changes and modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer or registrant of this equipment can void your authority to operate this equipment under Federal Communications Commission’s rules.
In order to maintain compliance with FCC regulations shielded cables must be used with this equipment. Operation with non-approved equipment or unshielded cables is likely to result in interference to radio and television reception.
This Class A digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
Cet appareil numérique de la classe A est conforme à la norme NMB-003 du Canada.
Video Quality Caution
FRAME RATE NOTICE REGARDING USER-SELECTED OPTIONS
Pelco systems are capable of providing high quality video for both live viewing and playback. However, the systems can be used in lower quality modes, which can degrade picture quality, to allow for a slower rate of data transfer and to reduce the amount of video data stored. The picture quality can be degraded by either lowering the resolution, reducing the picture rate, or both. A picture degraded by having a reduced resolution may result in an image that is less clear or even indiscernible. A picture degraded by reducing the picture rate has fewer frames per second, which can result in images that appear to jump or move more quickly than normal during playback. Lower frame rates may result in a key event not being recorded by the system.
Judgment as to the suitability of the products for user’s purposes is solely the user’s responsibility. Users shall determine the suitability of the products for their own intended application, picture rate and picture quality. In the event user intends to use the video for evidentiary purposes in a judicial proceeding or otherwise, user should consult with its attorney regarding any particular requirements for such use.

Description
The DX4500/DX4600 Series digital video recorder (DVR) is the latest generation in entry-level DVRs. Equipped with an embedded operating system, the DVR offers camera capacity, features, and functionality exceeding other DVRs. The DX4500/DX4600 is designed for the entry-level market that requires 8 or 16 camera inputs; greater internal hard drive storage capacity; fast frame rate recording; and powerful playback, search, and export capability. The DX4500/DX4600 not only replaces the traditional VCR and multiplexer combination, but it also offers the benefits derived from the latest in digital video processing.
Designed to work with today’s broadband networks, the DX4500/DX4600 uses MPEG-4 compression, allowing you to view and control the DVR across local or wide area networks. Recording at resolutions of up to 704 x 480 (4CIF), the DX4500/DX4600 captures crystal clear pictures, creating effective footage for later use and retrieval. Exported video is easily reviewed at the DX4500/DX4600 server or remote client computer using the Export Viewer. Each DVR input channel can be configured individually to meet a specific security application requirement for video retention. Video critical to investigation and archiving is easily exported to a USB memory device or to an optional CD-RW or DVD±RW device.
Operation of the unit is made easy through the front panel, remote control keypad, or USB mouse. The remote DX4500/DX4600 Client application can interface with up to sixteen DX4500/DX4600 servers simultaneously. User-configurable disk partitioning is used to allocate specific hard disk space for storing continuous video data, and event-initiated video data. The retention time can be different for retaining continuous recorded video, and event-initiated recorded video.
For surveillance applications requiring pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ) capability, the DX4500/DX4600 addresses and controls PTZ equipment such as Spectra® domes and Esprit® positioning systems, or third-party cameras. An optional Pelco KBD300A keyboard can be connected to the DX4500/DX4600 to operate PTZ devices. The DX4500/DX4600 supports Pelco C (Coaxitron®), Pelco D, and Pelco P protocols. Pelco C allows you to operate Pelco PTZ cameras up to a distances of 1,500 feet (457m).
With the ability to trigger recording and response to events (such as alarm inputs, motion detection, and video loss), the DX4500/DX4600 Series becomes an automated monitoring system as well. The DX4600 Series DVR supports multi-event recording. Multi-event recording includes any single or combination of events associated with an alarm, motion, or instant recording event. The DX4600 allows you to schedule each camera to record in a single or multiple-event mode across a 24-hour timeline. You can also configure each camera to record at a specific resolution, quality, and image rate when an event is triggered.
The DX4500/DX4600 video outputs provide for efficient control and effective deterrence. The choice of VGA or composite main monitor output provides flexibility for the user. The main monitor output can be adjusted to display one, four, nine, or sixteen cameras, or it can be adjusted for a custom display. The DX4500/DX4600’s spot monitor output can be used for public viewing or alarm call-up.
The DX4500/DX4600 is designed to deliver robust and reliable performance for security professionals. From the incorporation of watermarking technology to prevent alterations to captured video, to the ability to capture log entries, to the inclusion of Pelco’s world renowned customer service promise, the DX4500/DX4600 embodies the ideal entry-level DVR to protect people and assets.
