The DVR8-BU 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 to medium retail security or surveillance applications and offers the performance and stability of EZWatch Pro in a powerful DVR. Supporting up to 8 cameras out of the box at 7.5 frames per second each (FPS), it can easily be expanded to 12 cameras by adding a third capture card at any time.

Fast Setup

The DVR is ready to go right out of the box with Windows XP Home Edition, two 4 channel EZWatch Pro value grade capture cards and EZWatch Pro software preinstalled onto the system. Use your own standard security cameras or choose from our full line of compatible security cameras.

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.
