Description
The DX1104-080 digital video recorder (DVR) is a compact recorder that can store and play back images from four cameras and audio from one
camera. The DVR can be placed on a shelf or desktop for easy access to the front panel controls for operation and programming.
Live video from all four cameras can be viewed while recording. Recording can be done continuously or for a scheduled time in a 24-hour period.
Each camera has its own alarm input for alarm recording.
An 80 GB hard drive generally allows continuous recording up to four weeks under the most common recording conditions. Recording time will
vary depending on image size, number of cameras recorded, resolution selection, and record rate.
Recording can be stopped at any time to play back video. Search functions during playback allow frame-by-frame viewing, fast playback, and
playback of alarm events.
The DVR uses proprietary compression algorithms to prevent alteration of the video image, as well as password protection to guard against
unauthorized or unintentional recording or playback.
The DX1104-080 lets you load the latest software version (available from Pelco’s web site) into the DVR via a USB flash drive that is supplied
with the DVR. The USB flash drive can also be used to save recorded video and audio from the DVR to a PC.
