Digital video recorder for security applications

The Divar is a video recording system that can record multiple camera signals while simultaneously providing live multiscreen viewing and playback. It combines the functionality of a digital recorder with a multiplexer and a switcher.

The unit has comprehensive search (including a smart motion search) and playback facilities for viewing stored video. Once set up, all recording takes place in the background without requiring operator intervention. Maximum recording rates of 60 (NTSC) and 50 (PAL) images per second in total are guaranteed with unsynchronized cameras. The recording rate and quality are selectable per camera.

All models have extensive alarm handling functions and telemetry control. Alarm functions include motion detection in user-definable areas of the image on any camera input.

The unit can be easily operated and programmed via the front panel control keys and on-screen display menu system. One monitor output provides full- screen, quad and multiscreen viewing; another spot/alarm monitoring. A keyboard can be connected for PTZ control and to improve the ease-of-use.

Via a network, the Control Center PC-application can be used for live viewing, playback and configuration. Six simultaneous users can control multiple Divars. The Divar includes an authenticity check for both local and remote playback. A dedicated PC player is provided for playback of secure video files. Additionally,
