8 Channel Security DVR - EZWatch Professional Grade - High Resolution

The DVR8-PR is the perfect answer for video security applications where the home or small business owner wants better performance than multiplexers and time lapse recorders but with a limited budget. This system is designed for small retail security or surveillance applications and offers the performance and stability of EZWatch Pro in a powerful compact DVR. Supporting up to 8 cameras out of the box at 30 frames per second (FPS), it can easily be expanded to 8 cameras by adding a second capture card at any time.
H.264 Technology
This system uses the new industry standard H.264 high quality compression technology for video storage and supports a full 30 frames per second (FPS) live viewing and recording on all cameras connected to the DVR card. This technology was developed to provide the highest quality video compression with the lowest storage requirement. All of our professional grade surveillance DVRs utilize this advanced technology and include 1 available audio input for every security camera connected to the surveillance system.
Remote Viewing
One of the most popular features of our EZWatch Pro system is the ability to remotely view live and recorded video from any high speed internet connection or 3rd generation cellular telephone. Our built in web server ensures that you can connect from any system with Internet Explorer, avoiding the need to install additional software to view your surveillance system. We also include a client software package that allows multiple, simultaneous connections. This enables you to monitor multiple surveillance sites at the same time from one location.
Easy & Flexible Operation
Our EZWatch Pro system supports a variety of recording modes, alarms, notifications and schedules. Motion detected recording is easily accomplished; allowing you to adjust sensitivity levels for individual security cameras and block out areas you would like the software to ignore. Custom schedules can be created for recording with a mix of motion recording and continuous recording throughout the day.
The smart guard system allows for many triggers to be configured such as; object missing detection, foreign object detection, signal loss, security camera view blocked, security camera out of focus and general motion. On detection, the system can respond in a variety of ways which include; sending an email alert, making a telephone call, sounding an alarm, redirecting an optional Pan/Tilt/Zoom camera to that location or triggering an external relay. Of course if you ever need help with configuring anything on your system, our free technical support is available for as long as you own your EZWatch Pro surveillance system.
