Features
DX-TL4716U is a digital recorder that is equipped with HDD as its main memory and 16ch triplex multiplexer. Addition to these features, this system has a very sophisticated video signal and data processing technique that provides high quality picture, stable operation and reliability. The graphical user interface and pointing devices make the operation very easy and comfortable in live monitoring and also in the handling of data from recording to export. The system offers excellent performance and has features to suit many video surveillance applications.
Refresh rates of 960pps*/system
Thanks to the newly developed multiplexing circuit, every camera can be viewed at 60 pps refresh rate in all screen formats.
pps* : picture per second
Triplex
User can view live and playback pictures on the same monitor in all screen multi-split layouts without disrupting recording.
Dual Multiplexer Outputs
The DX-TL4716U has two video outputs (Output A / B), and both of the outputs can show single-screen, 4, 9, 10, 13 and 16 split-screen, Switched Cameras, Alarmed Camera in live mode and Recorded pictures. On Screen Menu are shown only on monitor Output A. It is also possible to view playback pictures of different cameras at the same time with these two video outputs.
Covert Camera Function
It is possible to hide pictures of selected cameras that are installed in sensitive areas and should only be viewed by authorized personnel. It can be switched by <Multiplexer Setting>.
GUI
MENU, GUI (Graphical User Interface), guides the operators to their desired menu pages quickly. If the users need additional information on MENU functions, just press the HELP key and instructions will appear on screen. The menu supports English, French, and Spanish. Function keys on the front panel or USB mouse can operate the menu on the DX-TL4716U.
Recording rate up to 240 pps/system
Because of the new recording circuit and compression chip, the maximum recording speed is 240 pps in total, this means that the system can record pictures with speed of up to 15 pps on all 16 channels. With this speed recorded pictures are seen by the eye as real-time.
JPEG2000
The system uses JPEG2000 compression. JPEG2000 is the standard and ideal compression method for still pictures. Because pictures are compressed to a user defined file size one by one, the estimated recording time calculated by the system automatically is very accurate. Special playback search functions and transmission over network also benefi t from this compression method. File sizes for each picture quality are minimized to improve storage effi ciency over previous models.
Individual Recording Setting
Recording speed and picture quality (picture fi le size) can be set for each camera individually, it is also possible to set alarm recording setting in addition to normal recording setting. By adjusting the recording speed and picture quality, it is possible to use HDD storage space effi ciently.
Audio Recording
Audio input is featured. The audio such as cash register operation and conversation with customers can be recorded clearly together with the monitoring pictures.
Copy
User can make a copy of recorded picture data by using built in CD/DVD Drive on the DX-TL4716U. Or, also you can copy the data to other digital media such as HDD and USB Memory through Serial Bus Interface.
