1. Introduction 1.1. Digital video recorder for security applications The HVRM-S400E is a video recording system that can record up to four camera signals with associated audio signals while simultaneously providing live multi screen viewing and playback. The unit has comprehensive search and playback facilities for viewing stored video.
- The HVRM-S400E sets video signal’s impedance (75Ω) automatically Impedance is set as 75Ω basically. If connecting a device to video output, impedance will be “Hi-z” status. - The HVRM-S400E automatically configures itself as a PAL or NTSC unit by detecting the signal format of the first connected camera (lowest camera input number) 2.
