DESCRIPTION

Simultaneous Playback of Recorded Images
The multi-playback screen allows images that are recorded at the same time by up to four cameras to be played back simultaneously. In addition to standard playback, a variety of modes, including reverse and variable speed playback, can also be used for more detailed image confirmation.

MPEG-4 and JPEG recording
Select MPEG-4 recording when you want smooth motion images even with limited network speeds or a smaller volume of image data, and select JPEG when you want to take beautiful images at set intervals.

Enhanced recording functions
The detection range on the PC can be limited by dividing the screen into a grid of 100 squares and masking all unnecessary squares. This suppresses the detection of motion in those squares to detect and record the desired motion with greater accuracy. Other convenient recording functions include alarm recording, manual recording, motion detection recording, and timer recording.

Recording format exchange
Desired parts of recorded motion images, still images, and audio can be converted to common formats for handy data exchanging.

Graphic display of recorded images in list form
Recorded images are easily displayed. Screens with graphic expressions, such as a calendar or date and time, make it easy to check images according to the camera name, recording time zone, or recording method. This also makes it easy and convenient to retrieve and play recorded images, and to convert or edit files.

Enhanced viewer functions
You can choose either of two layout modes: the full-screen mode, which fills the screen with the image, or the window mode, which also displays a title, menu, and tool bar. The multi-camera display lets you monitor up to 16 cameras or view the playback of up to 4 cameras. The order of the display images and the size of the display frames can be easily changed by drag & drop operation.

Sequential display function
When monitoring with multiple cameras, the camera displaying the image can be automatically switched at preset intervals. This is also handy when recording the images for later viewing, as it lets you check all of the locations regularly and completely.

Recording
Recording file format	Original file format: Images and voices are recorded continuously in a moving image file.
Recording media	Hard disk, network dirive^*1
Recording resolution	5 sizes (160 x 120 to 1280 x 1024)^*2
Image quality (JPEG only)	Favor clarity, standard, favor motions
Recording interval	Not specified (based on camera’s image update interval), specified: 5 images/second to 1 image/hour Recording interval designation and sound recording can be done simultaneously.
No. of camera units for simultaneous recording	Dependent on camera type and performance of PC. See the hardware specifications below.
Recording capacity limit function	Maximum recording capacity value can be set for individual camera units (whether to save new data by overwriting or to stop recording when the set capacity is reached can be selected). In addition to a capacity limit for each camera, there is also a capacity limit for the entire storage media.
Motion detection recording (JPEG only)	The unit can be set to activate recording when motion is detected (sensitivity and threshold value can be adjusted) or to record for a certain time length before and after motion detection.^*3 Motion detection can be disabled in specified areas. Motion detection can be confirmed on-screen.
Timer recording	Programming of start and stop schedules based on day of week and time. Key word can also be set for recording. (10 schedules can be registered per camera).
Alerm recording (JPEG only)	Recording is triggered by the reaction of a sensor mounted to the camera. A certain time length before and after the sensor reaction can also be recorded.
Disk capacity limit function	Monitors the free space on the specified recording disk, and stops recording when the free space becomes smaller than the set value.
Image operation
Continuous play back	Playback of images with voices, playback of image files. Playback speed can be varied. Playback in reverse is possible. Simultaneous playback of images from multiple cameras is also possible.
Recorded image view	A list of recorded image files, or a graphical list can also be displayed.
Operation of recorded images	Recorded images can be copied or deleted.
Format conversion	All or part of the recorded images can be converted to MPEG-1, MPEG-4, or JPEG format files, or only the audio portion can be converted to WAV files.
Image search
Recorded image search function	Search recorded images in 1-day units using the recording time, or using a key word set before recording. Searching can also be done for particular, desired folders.

*1-1 Folders on the network allotted to the drive can be specified for saving data.
*1-2 When a network drive is specified as a folder for saving data, the amount of data flowing over the network increases. This may remarkably degrade the operating performance for watching or recording camera images, watching previously recorded images, etc., and may also result in errors.It is recommended that a folder on a local disk be specified for saving data.
*2 MPEG-4 camera using an MPEG-4 connection: 640 x 480, 320 x 240, 192 x 144 MPEG-4 camera using a JPEG connection: 1280 x 1024, 640 x 480, 320 x 240, 192 x 144
*3 The detection level varies depending on the camera resolution, image quality setting, subject conditions, network conditions, etc.

JPEG

resolution (dot)	size (KB)
resolution (dot)	favor clarity	standard	favor motion
1280 x 1024	approx.100	approx.77	approx.60
640 x 480	approx.50	approx.35	approx.27
320 x 240	approx.25	approx.16	approx.10
194 x 144	approx.10	approx.7	approx.5
160 x 120	approx.7	approx.5	approx.3

The approximate recording capacity is calculated by using the following formula:
Size (KB) x Frame rate (images/sec) x Recording time (sec)
Example
· The calculation for a 1-hour recording of 640 x 480 resolution images at a frame rate of 5 images/sec in Favor Clarity mode is as follows:
50 KB x 5 images/sec x 3,600 sec (1 hour) = 900,000 KB ≒ 879 MB
· In case of images with voices, 4 KB is added per each second:
900,000 KB + 4 KB x 3,600 sec = 914,400 KB ≒ 893 MB

MPEG-4

resolution (dot)	MPEG-4 bit rate*
640 x 480	768kbps
320 x 240	384kbps
194 x 144	128kbps

*MPEG-4 bit rate: This depends on the value set at the camera for MPEG-4 bit rate for image distribution.

The approximate recording capacity is calculated by using the following formula:
MPEG-4 bit rate (Kbps)/8 bits x time (sec).
Example
· The calculation for 640 x 480 resolution images at an MPEG-4 bit rate of 768 Kbps is as follows:
768 Kbps/8 bits x 3,600 seconds (1 hour) = 345,600 KB ≒ 337.5 MB
· In case of images with voices, 4 KB is added per each second:
345,600 KB + 4 KB x 3,600 sec = 360,000 KB ≒ 352MB
