Zicom Electronic Security Systems Limited (BSE Code: 531404 & NSE Code: ZICOM), India’s leading electronic security company, has launched the first-of-its-kind, next-generation Intelligent Hybrid Mini ‘Digital Video Recorder’ (DVR) with the unique capability of connecting IP as well as Analogue Cameras. This compact ‘Hybrid Mini DVR’ is specifically designed to cater to the new demands of facilitating use of both IP and Analogue in the same premise without much hassle of integration or increased investment. It is rich on features, powerful and delivers better performance, and the portable size makes it easy to handle. The product is available in 4, 8 and 16 Channel.
The new series DVR features a new ARM 9 RISC processor that offers saving in chip with higher capability that enables greater flexibility. In addition, it has a more powerful multimedia processing which is capable of multichannel video input encoding and intelligent video analysis – a single DSP chip which independently allows 8 to 10 channels of 656 video input.
Its user-friendly Graphical User Interface (GUI) allows users to interact with the device through graphical icons and visual indicators as opposed to the typical text-based interfaces, typed command labels or text navigation. Its channel – zero encoding enables a remote view of multiple channels in real time in the web browser or CMS with the lowest bandwidth speed. Therefore one need not lower the DVR image quality and bandwidth requirement to see better live image remotely.
The latest intelligent Hybrid Mini DVR also features powerful networking that supports Internet protocols, PNP & remote IP address configuration. It offers two-kilomega Ethernet ports, which are capable of high-speed video transmission and download. With its latest video surveillance technology, it displays and records at the full frame rate of 30 fps per channel of video
One of the most advanced features in this Hybrid Mini DVR is its Synchronous Playback Facility that allows one to view video footage at a specific point of time from multiple cameras simultaneously. For e.g. if one wished to view all the video footage shot by several cameras at 10:00 AM, one could use Synchronous Playback Facility instead of examining the video footage from each camera individually.
The new Hybrid Mini DVR has a newly designed in-display, which encompasses advantages of PC-based DVRs. It offers high-resolution image ports, enabling 1280 x 1024 pixels or 1024 x 768 pixels on VGA display. This function not only restores true-picture images but also decodes network camera image in high resolution. Moreover, the high-definition video is not just in real-time display, but also works in playback.
Zicom’s new DVR has an aesthetic, practical control panel that combines the channel indicator display and keypad for alarm view. It supports mouse and shuttle switch, and features a new OSD design with a Windows operating system. All functions can be easily operated by one single mouse or shuttle switch. It also supports clear guidance for configuration. DS-9016HFI-S Intelligent Hybrid DVR also has higher security performance, such as power consumption and RAID, to prevent hard-disk malfunction. Besides supporting standard algorithms for video and audio encoding and decoding, a Linux operating system is embedded.
