Both video footage and still images can be easily archived using
optical media, an internal hard disk, or an external hard disk
connected to one of the 6 USB ports (front 2, rear 4). You can define
precisely what you want to copy — an entire recording or just one
portion, a specific camera or time period, etc. You can even "mirror"
an entire hard disk to create a backup copy. And since viewer
software is automatically copied with the data, both video footage
and still images can be examined on any Windows computer.
Simplicity extends to searching through all data recorded by the DX-TL5000E. Date-
time search, start/end-point search, alarm list search — all of these are instantly
available from the menus. Up to 8 bookmarks can be registered for instant retrieval.
The motion detection search enables you to pinpoint when something suspicious
happens, such as a file being removed from a restricted-access area.
Instead of investing in motion detectors, you can rely on the DX-TL5000E to perform the same
function using the output of the security cameras. Image-processing firmware inside the recorder
is able to pick out visible changes within a specified area covered by any camera. You can even
adjust time-base sensitivity to match either fast or slow movement.
PTZ control (also available remotely over a network) lets you pan, tilt and zoom leading brand
cameras. Using the number keys and jog-shuttle control on the DX-TL5000E, simply pick a
camera and then move it as desired to get a better view of any area of interest.
Operation is facilitated by use of the optional DX-KB5UE keyboard. You can
also control focus, exposure, presets and auto-pan in this way.
