DIGITAL VIDEO RECORDER INTRODUCTION
Thank you for your purchasing the Digital Video Recorder (DVR) developed
by our company! This product has already obtained CE, FCC, BSMI Class A
Certifications .
Our company has developed 4-, 8-, 12-, 16-CH DVR system,DVR central
monitoring system and various storage devices, aimed at various security
surveillance applications. The entire series of products utilizes the most
advanced digital technology and provides a broad range of functions, in
order to completely satisfy your DVR application requirements.
Our DVR system has built-in digital compression technology for recording
and streaming video. Generally spea king, an CCD camera can deliver clear,
crisp images at about 30 fps (NTSC — National Television Standards Committee — US Television Standard) (25fps for PAL—Phase Alternating Line
— European Television Standard) — real continuous motion requires 24
fps (frames per second, standing for the number of the images delivered in
one second.) The high-performance processor and quick I/O connection
not only provide you with the capability to monitor the camera in real-time
mode, but also utilize the extra processing power to allow for a high frame
rate for recording and remote monitoring via I.E. browser, so that there will
be a minimal loss of video frames. Users can determine the actual frame
rate required for recording and remote monitoring according to the amount
of allocated disk space and the bandwidth available.
For maximum expandability, the system provides a Network Card, allowing
customers to connect a computer system to monitor remotely through the
network. A built-in 3½" floppy disk drive (FDD) may be used for outputting
video documents, and other optional ite ms include memory, storage/backup
devices, and alarm functions. Customers can choose to purchase expandable modules according to actual needs.
This User’s Guide describes all features of the Digital Video Recorder in an
easy-to-read yet thorough manner. The primary goals of this chapter are to
identify the main components of the Digital V ideo Recorder and to provide a
quick reference of the DVR functions for experienced DVR users.
