The Bosch Divar digital video recorder series are
extremely compact, low profile units that combine
advanced digital recording and multiplexing, not only
saving space, but ensuring integrated functionality.
The Divar has been designed with both operator and
installer in mind, by making the unit easy to use and
install, and maintenance free. The Divar allows
simultaneous recording and playback of video images.
"Overwrite protection" of marked video clips prevents
the loss of vital material.
The images per second (IPS) record rate and image
quality are selectable for each connected camera. This
makes it possible to prioritize recording between high-
risk areas and low risk areas. By having a higher
refresh rate only for critical or high-risk security areas,
considerable hard disk space can be saved. Recording
rates of 50 IPS (PAL) or 60 IPS (NTSC) are
guaranteed, without the need for synchronization.
As well as control of external alarm inputs, the Divar's
motion detector triggers an alarm when movement in a
user-definable area of the image is detected.
Smart motion search can be used for easy retrieval of
motion that has taken place within a user-specified
part of the image during a specified time-span.
The Divar is expandable with an optional keyboard,
allowing AutoDome control as well as enhanced
playback control.

Where video is required for evidence of an incident, it
is simple to archive the video with a dedicated PC
player for playback of the secure video files to a DVD
or CD with the internal or external DVD writer. The
Divar uses video authentication that can automatically
detect any alteration of the recorded video.
For easy installation, a "Quick install" feature is
included. Additionally, on-screen menus are provided
in several languages and context sensitive help is
always available by just pushing the yellow button. A
configuration tool is supplied to simplify setting up a
system using a PC. Because Divar is available with
Bilinx, functions usually requiring hands-on access to a
camera now use the video cable to communicate with
Bilinx cameras.
Owing to its high degree of integrated functionality,
the Divar can be the central element in a self-
contained security system with up to 256 cameras.
Because the Divar is fully compatible with any
standard 10/100 Base-T network, it is ideal for
distributed security surveillance systems.
An optional ATM/POS bridge enables financial
transaction details to be recorded together with video.
This makes the Divar suitable for use at cash
dispensers, check out desks and other similar
applications where it is sometimes necessary to verify
or identify what happened during a particular
transaction.
