Eneo Introduces New Generation Of Digital Recorders
Eneo Introduces New Generation Of Digital Recorders

Innovative design, enhanced user interface, pentaplex operation plus numerous other features - eneo offers the successor to the BTR models with its BCR series. A comparison of the new generation against the old.Compression methodThe MPEG4 ASP standard has now replaced JPEG 2000 to guarantee even higher image quality along with a low memory requirement.Operating modeWhilst digital recorders in the BTR series can carry out three tasks at the same time in triplex operation, the BCR recorders manage five with their pentaplex function: record, playback, live mode, backup and network functions.Access via web browserAccess to BTR series recorders is exclusively via the bundled Viewer software. But digital recorders in the BCR series also offer control via a web browser. Additionally, the bundled Viewer software has been upgraded and now features an even more clearly arranged user interface.Further improvementsBCR series digital recorders offer a higher internal hard disk capacity (max. 2 TB). Whilst BTR recorders achieve a maximum recording resolution of 720 x 288 pixels, the BCR successors upstage with a maximum resolution of 704 x 576 pixels. As opposed to the BTR forerunners, BCR models come with a DVD writer, infrared remote control and a mouse as standard equipment. Covert camera operation is also possible.Valued functionsVersions with four, eight or 16 loop-through video inputs continue to be offered, so that a model matched ideally to small as well as large applications can be selected. Playback of video imagery can be displayed in 4, 6, 8, 9, 13 or 16 channel split; furthermore the image can be frozen in live mode, and items and objects can be enlarged with the 2x zoom. The BCR series features a VGA output for PC monitor connection, a spot monitor output as well as RS-232 and RS-485 interfaces plus of course an Ethernet port. The integral motion detector can reliably detect movement by using the programmable grid.Both series also have the price in common. The purchase price for a BTR-3116, for instance, is only slightly different from that of a BCR-3016.

A Class Of Its Own: Eneo DCR-32N/250DVD

The eneo DCR-32N/250DVD is a new duplex digital recorder from the top class.  It works based on the Windows operating system, which guarantees compatibility to numerous applications. Furthermore, the DCR-32N/250DVD can be very easily installed into existing networks thanks to the Windows OS.  A program (Watchdog) designed especially for the recorder monitors all hardware and software functions and launches automatically within a few seconds should a system error ever occur, which guarantees that video surveillance is uninterrupted.32 video loop-through inputs also make the DCR-32N/250DVD the ideal choice for very large video surveillance systems.  It offers recording rates up to 200 fields per second.Standard equipment on the DCR-32N/250DVD includes a 250Gbyte EIDE hard disk drive; but the storage capacity can be upgraded to a total of six hard drives and therefore to at least a current capacity of 1500Gbyte.  This, plus the efficient MPEG-4 compression method, support recordings over very long time periods.  The integral CD/DVD writer also makes export of very large amounts of data simple.Furthermore, the recorder features a programmable motion detector and supports PTZ and zoom controls.  Camera images can be displayed as full frame, quad, 3+4, 3x3, 2+8 and 4x4.Of course, the DCR-32N/250DVD also has audio and alarm inputs and outputs, VGA, S-VHS/FBAS outputs, a RS-232 port and even ten spot monitor outputs.  A total of six USB 2.0 ports give options for mouse, printer or external storage media connection.  Remote Software is included in the shipping package.
