The Lorex DM120 Digital Monitoring System with Color Camera lets you easily turn your PC or laptop into an advanced video monitoring station. The DM120 uses a single-port video-grabber that is compatible with existing analog observation systems to connect directly to your PC or laptop, and includes remote-monitoring software. With the DM120 system, your PC can help you protect your home or business, record video evidence for security purposes, and more. The DM120's video-grabber uses a standard RCA connector for video input, and a standard USB connector for output to PC, as well as using the JPEG format for video compression. The remote-monitoring software allows digital recording of live video to your PC's HDD (hard disk drive), as well as remote viewing of live video streaming from over the Internet. Including a software-based, pixel motion detection capability, the DM120's monitoring software features individual selection of security-alarm functions, digital freeze and zoom-in options, and password security protection. When the alarm feature is activated, the system will automatically dial the telephone number which you have selected, and play a personalized alarm message. The camera that comes with this unit utilizes a high-resolution color CMOS (complimentary metal-oxide semiconductor) image sensor with a six-millimeter fixed lens that allows 512 by 492 effective pixels and has a light sensitivity of one Lux. This unit runs includes a 12-volt DC power supply, a 65-foot connecting cable that allows it to be installed virtually anywhere on your surveillance system, and an operating temperature of -14 to 122 degrees Fahrenheit. Technical Features: Video-grabber connection: RCA video input to USB output Software application platform: Microsoft Windows Minimum processor suggested: Pentium II 350 MHz processor or better Minimum suggested memory: 64 MB RAM and 40 MB HDD (for application) Operating temperatures: -14 to 122 degrees Fahrenheit Designed as an upgrade to your analog surveillance system, the Lorex DM120 lets you view and record your camera-feed from a remote computer location so you can monitor and protect your business or home from across the hall or around the world. This system requires a PC or laptop in order to function. Users should note that to use the DM120 application software and video-grabber it is suggested you have at least: a Pentium II 350 MHz processor with 64 MB RAM, as well as 24-bit or higher VGA display, at least a 33,000 bps modem connection, and Windows 98 or higher. About Surveillance Camera Technical Features Lux rating is the measurement used to indicate how sensitive a camera is to light. The lower the Lux level, the better the camera's ability to work in low-light conditions. The camera's resolution should be greater than, or equal to, the resolution supported by the system's recorder or monitor. The S/N, or signal-to-noise ratio, is an important measure of a camera's quality. A poor camera, low-light conditions or poor wiring causes "noise" which consumes processing power and disk space. A camera with a wide dynamic range is ideal, especially for recording areas in which both indoor and outdoor light are present. CCD (charge-coupled device) sensors provide high-quality images that are less susceptible to noise. CMOS (complimentary metal-oxide semiconductor) sensors offer less image quality, but are usually more cost-effective and energy efficient.
