Introduction
What is the…
DV-IP HD ?
A comprehensive digital recording solution, the DV-IP HD is a stand-alone high-performance
recording system offering reliable, networked, scalable CCTV with High Denition recording
capabilities at an affordable price.
The DV-IP HD is the ideal companion to the DM CamVu 2000, allowing multiple megapixel video
streams to be viewed and recorded simultaneously in high denition.
Ideal for installations were high record rates and network capabilities are required.The DV-IP HD
offers JPEG or MPEG-4 recording at scalable quality settings and global record rates of up to
200pps at 4CIF resolution.
Dedicated Micros renowned MultiMode record feature enables an operator to set different recording
rates, resolution and compression formats across scheduled, normal and alarm modes for each
individual camera.
Available with 8 camera inputs, all offering telemetry control, the DV-IP HD has built in Alarm
functionality and onboard Activity detection software.
To give operators maximum viewing exibility, the DV-IP HD can be congured to contain a mixture
of spot or main monitor outputs. Camera channels can be viewed in single or multi-screen mode on
a local monitor or remotely over an IP connection.
The accompanying Infra-Red (IR) Remote Control has a colour coded ‘Softkey’ interface with
conguration menus common to both local monitor and web interface, making for easy set-up and
operation.
Dedicated Micros trademark plug and play intuitive set-up and user-friendly interface helps keep
installation and operator training to a minimum.
The DV-IP HD includes as standard internal storage with expansion available via external high-
speed SATA ports. A DVD-R Writer and USB ports are provided for external video archiving.
The unit also offers integrated text support, allowing users to connect with cash registers in retail
applications to monitor Point Of Sale (POS) locations. Capturing and associating video with the
relevant text information allows the operator to search video footage by time, event, and text data to
provide evidence of fraud or to aid identication of regular offenders.
Among the many other features included as standard on the DV-IP HD are; multiway display, picture
in picture viewing and remote monitoring using NetVu ObserVer (utilising DM’s unique TransCoding
capabilities to provide uent live and replay images).
With telemetry control of up to 16 cameras (including coax telemetry), control of dome cameras,
audio recording, activity detection plus many more exciting features, the DV-IP HD is the ideal
product when high-performance video recording and transmission is required at an affordable cost.

DV-IP HD
The DV-IP HD includes a unique colour-coded, soft key menu structure and onscreen Graphical
User Interface (GUI). Context sensitive, the menu structure always represents the area of the menu
the user is in, allowing them to quickly select the options and settings they need without having to
trawl through menu pages and options. The colour coded buttons displayed on the monitor match
those on the IR Remote Control, whilst control can also be conducted through an attached USB
Mouse or supported Keyboard (KBC1 / KBC2).
VIDEO TIMELINE
The Video Timeline feature is a new intuitive interface for the control and navigation of playback
video. With control via the IR Remote Control or supported Keyboard, the colour-coded on-screen
display matches the buttons on the Remote Control or Keyboard allowing the user to control the
video forward or backwards in incremental steps of seconds, minutes, hours, days and weeks.
MAPS
Users can now navigate around their CCTV installation using graphical maps. Selecting the relevant
camera from the map will instantly connect the user to that cameras image stream. With the ability
to load bespoke map images and oor plans to reect their installations, the Maps feature is ideal for
quickly identifying camera locations around a site or CCTV network.
Point&go provides the user with easy to use, fast, accurate telemetry control via an attached
monitor. With no need for a telemetry keyboard, users are able to use Pan & Tilt control of a
Dedicated Micros Oracle Dome simply by clicking an area of the monitor. The camera will instantly
respond, positioning the selected area in the middle of the screen, ideal for tracking movement
through a scene.
ePTZ
Dedicated Micros ePTZ uses an advanced image ‘interpolation’ algorithm that reveals detailed
information that simple pixel-stretching digital zoom commands cannot. Users can operate ePTZ as
they would Analogue Zoom - moving around the scene and zooming in / out using the IR Remote
Control or a supported Keyboard - even on static analogue cameras. Electronic Zoom can be
carried out on both live and playback video. Providing the ability to retrospectively control and view
an image, a great aid in post-event analysis.
Absolute Positioning
Using Camera Selection Maps and the unique Absolute Positioning capability of Dedicated Micros
Oracle Dome cameras, an operator can, with one mouse click, select a camera and send it to view
an area of the site (Pan and tilt). Absolute Positioning is ideal for following someone from camera to
camera around a site and greatly increases event response time, particularly for operators unfamiliar
with a site layout and camera location.
Design of the manual
For ease of use, this manual has three parts:
1. Installation Shows details of how to install the unit and connect external devices.
2. Conguration Shows details of the units menus.
3. Operation Shows quick reference details on how to control the unit.
The order and layout of these pages has been designed to help the setup process. It is recommended
