Multiple hot-spot monitoring and dual-monitor
support

You can assign a hot-spot area (a specific monitor win-
dow within a multi-camera view) and configure the system
with dual monitors. This lets you assign up to nine hot-
spot monitor windows to the second monitor to ensure
crucial events are not missed.

MPEG-4/JPEG support

The recorder supports recording and playback for camer-
as that encode in both MPEG-4 and JPEG, giving you
more options when configuring your network monitoring
system.

Flexible recording modes

Different recording modes including manual, scheduled,
hardware alarm, pre- and post-alarm, and motion-base
recording give you greater choice when deciding what to
record.

user friendly.

Built-in intelligence simplifies monitoring

in motion and object detection intelligence. The joystick
keyboard simplifies all operations. You can view hot-spot
areas and multiple screens on dual monitors. Choose
your preferred default layout or customise one to your
specific requirements.

Greater choice when deciding what to record

This recorder lets you decide what to record, thanks to a
wide choice of different recording modes. It also support
high frame rate recording: 240 frames per second.

Easy to search, playback and export

Youll find its easy to search for image data by time, date,
recording type and camera number. You can perform sim-
ultaneous playback of multiple cameras. And you can
