Network Video Recorder<br />
<strong>Chapter</strong> 1 — Introduction<br />
1.1 Features<br />
This network video recorder (NVR) provides monitoring of video from network video transmitters, network<br />
cameras and DVRs, recording of monitoring video (DVR excluded) and playback of video recorded in the<br />
NVR system or DVR.<br />
• Remote monitoring of live images<br />
• Remote monitoring of live images in multiple Client systems through a streaming service (the number<br />
of channels that can be streamed equals the number of channels that can be recorded)<br />
• Up to 20 simultaneous connections to the NVR system<br />
• Software upgrades and multiple systems setup remotely (supported only for devices which provide the<br />
functions)<br />
• Display of system log information (supported only for devices which use the SiRiS protocol)<br />
• Map monitoring of live images<br />
• Centralized system operation and management and event handling<br />
• Enhanced security using the SSL function<br />
• Two-way audio communication and audio broadcasting<br />
• Enhanced security by setting up different authorities for each user group<br />
• Controlling with a network keyboard<br />
• Text-in and alarm function via TCP networking<br />
• Intuitive GUI<br />
• The following are supported only for network cameras and network video transmitters:<br />
− Recording of video and playback of the recorded video<br />
− Instant Recording of monitored images<br />
− Audio recording<br />
− Stable recording using proprietary video database file system<br />
• The following are supported only for DVRs:<br />
− Playback of video recorded in DVRs<br />
− Remote control of panic recording<br />
• Number of devices that can be registered and channels that can be recorded and streamed:<br />
− Registration: Maximum of 1,024 devices including devices which do not use the SiRiS protocol (The<br />
devices which do not use the SiRiS protocol can be registered up to the maximum number of available<br />
recording channels. For example, if the NVR system is a 16-channel model, up to 16 devices that do<br />
not use the SiRiS protocol can be registered.)<br />
− Recording (not supported for DVRs): Maximum of 16 (16-channel model) /32 (32-channel model) channels<br />
− Streaming (not supported for DVRs): The number of channels that can be streamed equals the number<br />
of channels that can be recorded.<br />
NOTES:<br />
• In this document, the “remote system” refers to a network video transmitter or DVR which cameras are<br />
connected to or a network camera. The “client system” refers to a PC running the Client program to<br />
connect to the NVR system remotely.<br />
• If the device is a four-channel network video transmitter which uses the SiRiS protocol, all four cameras<br />
are counted even if some of the four cameras are disabled, and four channels per network video transmitter<br />
are deducted from the number of channels available for recording and streaming.<br />
• This document covers the 16- and 32-channel network video recorders. For simplicity, the illustrations<br />
and descriptions in this document refer to the 32-channel model. Refer to Appendix (p. 141) for the<br />
system specifications of each model.<br />
