Product Description
The Embedded Network Video Recorder is designed for use within a surveillance
system, and performs recordings and playbacks pictures from network cameras
in the system. It is a recording device using a hard disk drive to record camera
pictures instead of using video tapes so that pictures recorded by repeated over-
writing will not experience deterioration of the recorded picture quality. Up to 4
(for NVST MP-04) or 8 (for NVST MP-08) or 16 (for NVST MP-16) cameras can
be connected via a network and it is possible to record their camera pictures.
It is possible to perform the settings or operate the NVR using a web browser
installed on a PC connected to a network, or remote controller. Recorded video
can be played back from remote site by a PC. Up to 4 PCs (web browsers) can
access this unit concurrently and it is possible to perform the settings and oper-
ate this unit. The NVR is compatible with most major brand cameras and its
ability to automatically search and fnd the available cameras on the network can
greatly reduce the user effort when expanding the system.
