CONTROL PAD

The DVR5100 control pad contains four color-coded function buttons. The color of each function button corresponds to the color of its on-screen icon. This color-matching design lets you navigate the on-screen menus without looking down to read keyboard text labels.

The icon path at the top of the menu bar tells you which menu icons you selected to arrive at your current location. Most functions are no more than one or two levels deep. For example, Figure 28 illustrates the need to return one level to reach the Main menu from the Search/Export menu.

As part of Pelco's robust lineup of video management equipment, the DVR5100 offers a variety of features and technologies that make it an excellent choice for both commercial and residential environments.

It supports various resolutions, ensuring that users can achieve optimal image clarity. The device typically accommodates up to 16 camera inputs, making it ideal for large-scale monitoring needs.

A notable feature of the DVR5100 is its advanced compression technology. By using H.264 encoding, the DVR can efficiently reduce the file size of recorded video without compromising on quality.

The device is compatible with various mobile applications, facilitating real-time monitoring directly from smartphones or tablets.

Additionally, the DVR5100 features customizable recording settings. Users can choose from various recording modes – continuous, scheduled, or event-triggered – to best suit their surveillance needs. The inclusion of motion detection technology further enhances its functionality, allowing the system to capture footage only when activity is detected, thus conserving storage space and reducing the clutter of non-critical recordings.

The user interface of the DVR5100 is designed with simplicity in mind, offering intuitive navigation through its menus and settings. This ease of use is complemented by comprehensive search features, enabling quick retrieval of recorded videos based on time, date, or event type.

In summary, the Pelco DVR5100 is a robust digital video recorder that excels in providing high-quality surveillance capabilities, advanced compression technologies, and user-friendly features. Whether for a small business or a large security operation, the DVR5100 stands out as an efficient and reliable solution for comprehensive video management and monitoring needs.
