The unit is capable of displaying video images from four cameras
on one monitor by splitting the screen. A full-screen display, eith-
er by using the sequential switching function or designating a

a list of alarm events and played back.

The user can designate time and date of
recorded video images and play back
retrieved images.
Security Lock
There are two levels of security lock — Administrators and
Users. — offering users the best option for their security needs.
Buzzer
Depending on the user’s preference, the unit can be setup to
emit a warning buzzer when (1) there is an alarm; (2) HDD
becomes full; (3) recording suddenly stops; (4) an abnormality
occurs; (5) an operation button is pressed.
TV-System Switching between NTSC / PAL
A changeover switch in the back directs video signals of surveil-
lance camera input / monitor output to NTSC or PAL circuit.
(Note: this switch only route the video signal to an appropriate
circuit and does not mean that the unit converts a NTSC input to
PAL format, or vice versa.) Also, the AC power source is for 120
