disk space for storing continuous video data and event-initiated video
data. The retention time can be different for retaining continuous
recorded video and event-initiated recorded video.
Operation of the unit is made easy through the front panel, remote
control device, or mouse. For surveillance applications requiring
PTZ capability, the DX4500/DX4600 addresses and controls
pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ) equipment such as Spectra
®
domes and mini
domes or third-party cameras. The optional KBD300A keyboard
operates Pelco and third-party PTZ cameras that support Pelco C
(Coaxitron), Pelco D, or Pelco P protocols.
Multi-event recording on the DX4600 supports single-event recording
or a combination of alarm, motion, or instant event recording at a
resolution, quality, and image rate specific to each camera. With the
ability to trigger recording and in response to events (such as alarm
inputs, motion detection, and video loss), the DX4600 becomes an
automated monitoring engine as well.
The DX4500/DX4600 provides a robust set of features for small- to
multiple-site applications. From the incorporation of watermarking
technology to prevent alterations to captured video, to the ability to
capture log entries, to the inclusion of Pelco's world renowned
customer service promise, the DX4500/DX4600 embodies the ideal
entry-level DVR to protect people and assets.
APPLICATIONS
The remote client-to-server connectivity allows operation from a remote location, connecting multiple servers simultaneously. The remote client can be used to operate
and administer both DX4500/DX4600 and DX4000 servers installed at multiple locations. For example, small sites can use the DX4000 to record and display video
from 1 to 4 cameras; medium sized sites can use the DX4500/DX4600 to record and display video from 8 or 16 cameras. Additionally, the remote client is an application
for the Microsoft
®
Windows Vista
®
operating system and supports all editions.
The remote client can export a video data file in AVI or native format from a DX4500/DX4600 server, or in AVI format from a DX4000 server. It can also store the file
at a specified destination on the remote computer’s hard drive or other allocated storage media. Use the Windows Media
®
Player or similar viewer to view video
exported in AVI format. Use the DX4500/DX4600 Export Viewer to playback video exported in native format or to view authenticated watermarked video. Use the
DX4000 Backup Player to view authenticated watermarked video.
The remote client can play back video from the live view or search modes of the DX4500/DX4600; the DX4000 can play back video from the remote client’s date/time
search mode. For the DX4000, the playback mode, playback controls, and playback speed and volume controls are available in the remote client’s date/time search
mode. With only a few clicks of a button, the remote client can quickly print a DX4500/DX4600 live view playback/search mode image or a DX4000 date/time search
mode playback video image.
