1Overview
The remote software gives you full control of multiple
Bosch Security Systems DVR4C digital video recorders
via a PC. Remote live viewing, search, playback and
system configuration are available. The software consists
of three programs: Live Viewer, Playback Viewer, and
Configuration Tool. By installing the DVR4C remote
software on a Windows PC you can monitor real-time
and recorded images via a LAN, a WAN, a telephone
line (with limited functionality*) or the Internet. To
manage multiple DVR4Cs easily, the DVR4C remote
software supports camera lists and group modes. An
Archive Player is also provided so that archived video
recordings can be viewed without requiring the remote
software to be installed.
