1.2 Technical Overview

1.2.1 Video Input and Output

The digital video recorder is designed to support either NTSC/EIA or PAL/CCIR standard. To make the auto detection of video standard work, at least one camera must be connected to the video input. The product features video camera inputs with a passive looping output for each. Camera input impedance termination is set independently for each camera automatically. Synchronizing or phasing cameras

is not required to achieve the frame rate of 30 fps for NTSC/EIA or 25 fps for PAL/CCIR.

Video surveillance and playback is supported by VGA monitor connection and optional main monitor connections for both composite and S-video signal formats. The main monitor displays the selected cameras in any available display format. Another composite video output is provided for call monitor that displays any alarm images or the live images of all the installed cameras sequentially.

1.2.2 Video Processing

The video processor controls the switching of the built-in video matrix according to the system configurations. The video encoder keeps analyzing the video signal from the cameras, and encoding the incoming pictures in JPEG format or MPEG-1 format that is digitized and smaller in size at 30 fps for NTSC/EIA or 25 fps for PAL/CCIR. During video playback, the video decoder decodes the digitized format, no matter it is JPEG or MPEG-1, and then displays the decoded pictures on the VGA monitor screen or TV monitor screen.

1.2.3 Video Storage and Retrieval

The encoded pictures are stored in the hard disks, with the stored frame rate for each camera set by the administrator. If any event (Alarm, Motion, or Video Loss) happens, all the encoded pictures for the correspondent camera for the preset pre-record duration will be saved to the hard disk, and the recording rate for that camera will be changed to its alarm recording rate afterwards for the preset post-record duration. When the recording reaches the end of the recording hard disk, the system will automatically switch to the next available hard disk and record from the beginning of that hard disk.

During video playback, the selected pictures can be saved to floppy
