features:
y 4 Composite Video Input Connectors
y Compatible with Color (NTSC or PAL) and B&W (CCIR and EIA-170) Video Sources
y Auto Detection for NTSC and PAL

Technical Overview
In addition to replacing both a time-lapse VCR and a multiplexer in a security installation, your
DVR 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 record over the oldest video once the disk is full.
User’s Manual

Your DVR uses a proprietary encryption scheme making it nearly impossible to alter video.
You can view video and control your DVR remotely by connecting via Ethernet. There is a USB
port that can be used to upgrade the system or copy video clips to external flash drives.
