Description
DX4700/DX4800 Series H.264 hybrid video recorders (HVRs) bring a new range of performance and capability to the Pelco DX Series product line.
The DX4700/DX4800 Series offers a cost-effective solution to expand existing analog systems with megapixel IP recording. And, the ability to
support two Pelco megapixel IP cameras or Axis
®
cameras, gives new power and flexibility in IP migration. (Due to native display resolution, IP
streams can be viewed in standard resolution at the server and in megapixel resolution at the client.)
DX4700/DX4800 Series models record up to 30 images per second (ips) on all channels. In addition, the DX4800 adds the ability to record full
frame rate video at 4CIF resolution for all cameras.
DX4700/DX4800 Series HVRs provide unparalleled storage selections for systems in this class. With up to 8 TB of internal storage, the higher
storage demands of megapixel and high speed recording can be overcome without sacrificing speed for resolution. DX4700/DX4800 Series HVRs
also match security requirements to storage needs with the unique HDD partitioning feature, which allocates individual disk partitions for normal
and alarm recording. And, video is easily backed up to an optional USB-attached HDD enclosure (up to 1 TB).
The unit provides the unique ability to leverage installed systems: the new DX Series client provides operational functionality for DX8000 digital
video recorders (DVRs), DX8100 Series and DX4700/DX4800 Series HVRs, DX4500/DX4600, DX4100 and DX4000 Series DVRs. Optionally,
DS ControlPoint software allows integration with DX Series products and Digital Sentry
®
systems.
DX4700/DX4800 Series is full-featured and provides a wide range of robust capabilities including the ability to capture and overlay ATM/POS
text with video recording, access instant playback for quick investigative work, and the use of bidirectional audio for enhanced security.
The unit reduces installation overhead with out of the box recording. An intuitive interface makes custom installation easy and reduces learning
time for end customers.
CLIENT APPLICATION SOFTWARE
Fully implemented networking capabilities allow remote viewing of live video, playback, and administration of DVR/HVR server features.
Versatile high-speed search operations include time and date, bookmark, event, pixel, thumbnail, and point of sales (POS) searching. Extensive
scheduling features allow the customization of day, weekday, weekend, and special event recording. The DX Series client provides a graphical
user interface (GUI), allowing for quick and efficient access to setup and operating features.
The DX Series DVR/HVRs support four software applications that run on a PC:
DX Series Client software application: Allows you to log on to, operate, and administer up to 100 DX Series DVR/HVRs. DX Series
servers supports a total of five simultaneous connections when using the DX Series client and Web client applications.
DX Series Export Viewer: Allows you to view exported video. The export viewer is designed to recognize and verify the digital
watermark that is embedded in the Pelco-engineered .exp video format.
DX Series Emergency Agent: Works with networked DX4700/DX4800, DX4500/DX4600, and DX4104 units to alert users when one or
more channels detect an alarm, motion, text, or video loss event. The emergency agent runs on a networked client PC.
DX Series Web Client: Allows you to view live video and operate PTZ features of cameras attached to a DVR/HVR.
