?Can I cut any of the DVR4-Alert’s cables to suit a particular use or application?
The DVR4-Alert is carefully designed and built to give reliable and trouble-free service, and any modifications not autho- rised by Swann could possibly damage the DVR or affect its reliability or performance. To ensure our products work at their optimum performance levels at all time Swann has decided that cutting any cable or any other unauthorised modifications of the product will void the warranty.
?Is it legal to use the DVR4-Alert to watch and/or record people like neighbors, family or staff?
All jurisdictions have specific laws and regulations relating to the use of cameras. Before using any camera for any purpose, it is the buyer’s responsibility to be aware of all applicable laws and regulations that prohibit or limit the use of cameras and to comply with the applicable laws and regulations.
The legality of watching people other than yourself change from country to country and even state to state. Contact your local government’s privacy information body or your local Police for more information on what if any restrictions you may face.
?Can the DVR4-Alert work without a TV connected to it?
Yes. Once you are satisfied with the setup of the DVR4-Alert you can disconnect it from your TV and place it in a secure position where it is less likely to be disturbed or stolen in a burglary. Making the DVR harder to find means the evidence it will record is preserved for handing to the Police.
?Can I connect my Swann DVR4-Alert to my PC?
The DVR4-Alert can be connected to a PC that is fitted with a video capture device only. This would enable you to record the output of the DVR4-Alert to a suitable video format on your PC by connecting the Video out socket on the DVR4-Alert to the Video in socket on your capture device. Check with your PC manufacturer or supplier if you are unsure whether your PC has a video capture device fitted.
