CIR

The CIR captures video from PAL or NTSC legacy cameras. The CIR provides telemetry interface for PTZ camera control, full duplex audio, digital inputs and outputs. It is responsible for recording the data locally and streaming the data to networked devices such as Control Stations or NVR’s. The CIR can also interface with IP cameras directly.


The CIR provides the peripheral device interface and intelligence for the system. It is able to analyse and process video and digital data through the use of mathematical 'Transforms' to obtain accurate motion detection in unison with any digital inputs information to perform its functions in accordance with user specific requirements.

NVR

Network Video Recorders provide a networked archive of video data allowing authorised Surveillance Control Stations to replay or download historic data (typically: from a few seconds, to many months ago). NVR's can be employed to provide a data backup to increase system availability. They are used particularly where the primary CIR may be at risk from criminal damage or where radio networks may be temporarily unavailable. On larger systems they provide extended data storage for archive material and video data distribution that otherwise may be overwritten at a CIR. NVR’s can record data streamed to them by either a CIR or directly from an IP camera. NVR’s are available in RAID versions for improved data security.
