Mobile DVR - Sentry SMD-04HC Digital Video Recorder

Powerful Remote Control: The Sentry SMD-04HC uses software for remote connection, with user ID and password protection. The mobile DVR is accessible through the internet or LAN connection allowing both single and quad views of remote cameras. The software permits the user full control of the DVR (remotely) making it very easy to change settings, start/stop recording and view recorded video.

Excellent Image Quality: Through MPEG4 compression technology, the Sentry SMD-04HC Mobile DVR provides excellent video display, recording and playback quality for 1 to 4 CCTV cameras, select either CIF(352x240) to D1 (704x480) resolution. Recorded video can be chosen from 1 of 5 standard quality levels or from 3 user definable levels.

Video Speeds: Live video display and recording on all cameras is always “real-time” – 30 frames per second (fps) per camera, giving lifelike video.

Video Display: Cameras can be displayed in a quad format or individually, full screen. Auto-switching from camera to camera is supported and the dwell time per camera can be user set. Brightness, contrast, hue, saturation and crispness of each camera are adjustable.

Vehicle Status Sensor: The vehicle status sensor connects the Sentry SMD-04HC Mobile DVR to a vehicles' brake, turning, hazard and reverse signals (see example), allowing this information to be displayed and stored on video recordings. In addition, the vehicle’s speed can be displayed and recorded on video providing that the vehicle uses the Hall IC vehicle speed sensor. These powerful features enhance the video and audio recordings to show whether correct driving procedures were followed, in the event of an accident or incident. The shut down delay (0-100 mins adjustable) function can record continuously for a certain period of time after the vehicle shuts down.

Alarm In/Out: Four “Alarm In” connections allow specific cameras to be put into record mode on receipt of an “Alarm In” signal, including triggering PTZs to move to a pre-set area. Such Alarms could include School Bus “Stop Arms” and/or Flashing Lights or Police Car Sirens and/or Flashing Lights. Two “Alarm Out” connections allow devices such as lights or audible alarms to be activated by motion detection on camera.

Multiple Recording Methods: Video can be recorded continuously, pre- and post, on motion, on alarm or by schedule. Different cameras can have recording methods set independently.

Motion Detection: Motion detection sensitivity can be chosen, so that accuracy of recording can be ensured. 192 detection zones per camera.

Recording Playback: Log files can be searched by date, time and alarm state. Playback can be in single or quad camera displays and switched to single camera full screen (and back again) with the push of a button on the remote control.

Security and Stability: ID and password protection are provided so that some people can simply use the system but cannot make any changes, while others can be allowed to make appropriate adjustments. Because no software is contained on the hard disk, software corruption or tampering is totally avoided. Viruses from Internet connections cannot be written to the system.

Audio Recording: Two channels of audio can be recorded with the Sentry Mobile DVR. Recorded audio can be played back, channel by channel, in synch with a video playback.

Video Export: Recorded video can be backed up to an external USB hard drive (Mobile Video Storage Device), or downloaded to a PC over a local area network using the included client software. Alternatively, the removable HDD can be installed in a Windows™ PC to allow direct access to the recordings.
