INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on your purchase of the B/W Quad Processor from Lorex.

The B/W Quad Processor turns any monitor into a Quad monitor with security features. Connect up to four
cameras to the Quad Splitter and view all four locations simultaneously in Real-Time (30 fps). The Quad
Processor is an ideal security solution for small to medium sized commercial enterprises as it allows you to
use an existing monitor as a 4 Channel Observation System.

Connect the Quad Processor to a Time Lapse VCR or DVR to capture footage and enable alarm recording.
You can also connect PIR motion sensors to the Quad Processor in order to have Motion Detection
capability. To learn more about this system or to find out more about other products available, please visit
