The DX4000 Series digital video recorder (DVR) is an entry-level, professional digital video recorder that not only replaces the traditional VCR and multiplexer combination but also offers the benefits derived from the latest in digital video processing.
Designed to work with today's broadband networks, the DX4000 uses MPEG-4 compression, allowing the user the ability to view and control the DVR across a wide area network. Additionally, the smaller file size produced by the MPEG-4 compression standard allows for longer storage times compared with traditional DVR technologies.
With the ability to record at resolutions up to 704 x 480, the DX4000 Series DVR captures crystal clear pictures, creating effective footage for later use and retrieval. With the ability to record up to 120 images per second in CIF resolution (352 x 240 NTSC, 352 x 288 PAL), users can also record full-motion video if desired. Individual adjustments are possible on a per input basis to optimize the DX4000 to meet a given installation’s requirements for length of video retention. Video critical for investigation and archiving can be exported easily to a USB flash memory device or an optional CD-RW or DVD-RW.
With the ability to address and control pan, tilt, and zoom (PTZ) equipment such as Spectra® domes and Esprit® positioning systems, the DX4000 becomes a powerful control point for the surveillance requirements of an installation. In addition, with the ability to trigger recording and alarms on motion or external contacts, the DX4000 series becomes an automated monitoring and notification engine as well.
The DX4000 video outputs provide for efficient control and effective deterrence. The choice of VGA, S-Video, or composite main monitor outputs provides flexibility for the user. The main monitor output can be adjusted to display in single screen or quad format. The DX4000's spot monitor can be used for public view applications, providing an effective deterrent to would-be criminals.
Finally, the DX4000 is designed to deliver robust and reliable performance for security professionals. From the ability to capture log entries detail- ing any faults or user initiated changes to the system, to the inclusion of Pelco's world-renowned customer service promise, the DX4000 embod- ies the ideal entry-level digital video recorder to protect assets and people.
