Piczel 7204 4 Channel Surveillance System with H.264 Codec DVR, 500GB HDD, 4 CCD IR Turret Dome Cameras, and Cables 

Description

The latest technology at an affordable price
This complete four camera system comes with a pentaplex DVR that incorporates the latest dual stream H.264 video codec technology. Up to four times more video is stored on the same size hard drive as previous models. Piczel's dual stream video processing records the highest quality video possible to the hard drive while adjusting the image compression to optimize the DVR's internet transmission speed. Smartphone monitoring, e-mail with images, SMS text messaging with an image, or standard text only alarm notification messages provide maximum access and connectivity while you are on the move. The included Central Monitoring Station (CMS) Software gives you the ability to monitor up to 64 cameras on one PC screen, with video streaming from multiple DVRs from the Piczel 5200 series, and 7200 series systems.

Selectable grid video motion detection
Video motion detection can be set to record activity to the hard drive, log the event in a list to simplify searches at a future date, and send an e-mail with an attached image of what just happened. To make the video motion detection more accurate and useful, a 13 x 10 grid of squares is displayed over each camera view during the motion detection setup process (see the included graphic with the product photos). With 130 small squares superimposed on a camera's view, you can select each square that you choose to be active, triggering an alarm event when there is activity in front of the square. By the same process, you can deactivate any square that lies in an area of known activity that would cause a false alarm, such as a pathway for a pet, or a public access area.

Intuitive menus and controls
Colorful on-screen graphics and descriptive icons make navigation of the menus and control of the DVR very intuitive and easy to use. A mouse allows you to quickly click and drag over schedules, motion detection grids, and on-screen DVR controls. An IR remote control is also included for ease of operation. Pentaplex capability allows you to view live video, record all channels, play back selected channels, connect via the Internet, and back up a file all at the same time. Motorized Pan/Tilt/Zoom (PTZ) cameras, such as the Piczel 3505 (Sam's # 248586), can be controlled with the mouse, IR remote, PC, or via free mobile phone apps. Timed, motion detection, and "NO" recording can be scheduled for any hour of any day for each camera, giving you total control over what to record, and when. Back up or copy video files quickly to a flash drive via a USB 2.0 port, or to a PC via the internet. Generate your own private password to access all data and functions, or user passwords that offer limited access.

Cameras with accurate reproduction
Turret dome cameras offer the stylish look and tamper proof features of a metallic dome camera, plus the night vision and weatherproof capabilities of a bullet camera. The 3-axis internal ball design allows you to position the camera on target. The 24 Infrared emitting LEDs allow night vision for reflective objects up to 65 feet away, and facial recognition up to 15 feet. The rugged cast aluminum case protects the camera and cable from tampering. Cameras can be used outdoors when mounted under a protective covering from direct rain such as an awning, eave, or soffit. Accurate daylight color reproduction is ensured by the Super HAD CCD™ imager. "White" colored grass, trees, and other similar vegetation is not an issue as displayed by lower end CMOS/IR LED type cameras.

Plug-N-Play installation with lifetime customer support
All Piczel systems are packaged with everything you need to connect and operate the system with no special tools required. Professional style locking BNC video connectors are used on all cameras and DVRs for long term stability, and compatibility with cameras and accessories made by other major CCTV manufacturers.
