Digital Video Recorders (DVRs) consist of three main types, plus a mobile series:
- PC based Digital Video Recorders are complete hardware/software computer-based systems incorporating video capture, video multiplexing, video (and optionally, audio) recording and playback, video display and remote video access via modem, Internet and/or LAN.
- Windows™ Embedded DVRs use PC hardware but all software, including Windows™ is contained on a Solid State Drive, providing much faster software loading speeds as well as a higher degree of security.
- Embedded DVRs do not use a Windows™ operating system and contain no software at all on the hard disk(s). All application functions are contained (embedded) in firmware (software encoded on chips).
- Mobile DVRs are embedded systems meant specifically for use in vehicles. They incorporate anti-shock and anti-vibration mountings and generally have 12V DC power inputs.
There are many low cost embedded DVRs with proprietary hardware on the market but such systems are generally lacking in features, functions and video quality and should not be considered for professional use. Recent advancements in technology, however, have allowed us to create and offer a line of Windows™ embedded DVR systems that provides the same features and functions as software-on-disk DVRs. In addition, Sentry Windows™ embedded DVRs are available in up to 48 security camera configurations.
Sentry mobile systems are state-of-the-art mobile DVRs with similar features to our PC based DVRs, but also with additional features such as vehicle status recording (vehicle speed, braking, turn indication etc). Video can be backed up to CD or Hard Disk, accessed and downloaded over a LAN, or the Hard Disk can be swapped for another.
Sentry PC based DVRs are not simply a collection of computer hardware - they represent carefully selected hardware and software components which are proven to work well together in the demanding video processing environment. Software, hardware and firmware settings are carefully optimized to ensure maximum performance without problems. Sentry PC based DVRs can support multiple numbers of CCTV security/IP cameras - from 4 to 48.
All Sentry PC based DVRs include Watchdog technology for operating system monitoring and system auto-rebooting if an error is detected. All our non-embedded PC based DVRs include a partitioned hard disk with all software loaded into a small "C" partition, and a large "D" partition for video recording. A bootable recovery CD is provided for the "C" partition using system restore software so in the event of any software corruption, the "C" drive can be recreated in it's original condition without affecting any recorded video on the "D" drive.
Microsoft Windows™ 7 is provided as the operating system on Sentry Windows™ based DVRs and Windows™ embedded DVRs. In addition, system restore software is also included on all systems. All software provided includes original CDs and manuals.
