An alarm input (trigger voltage) of 3-24 V DC, from an alarm panel or PIR, will cause the unit to send out a “universal” infra-red record signal. Once a domestic VCR receives this, it starts recording the event that caused the alarm condition. After an adjustable delay the unit sends out a stop signal,
resetting itself for the next activation. The
unit can be used with any CCTV system and provides a low budget solution
to event only recording. It
is mains powered with a re-chargeable battery back-up.
Due to its small dimensions, this unit fits neatly on top of or
next to a normal domestic VCR. When used in conjunction with an Advanced Vision Controller in a domestic environment, the controller can take a signal from the coaxial TV aerial lead to prevent the need to run cables in the lounge or living room. As well as being activated by PIR detectors the unit can be activated by the front door bell, so recording anyone who called when you are away. If the unit is set to record for 2 minutes each time it is activated & the VCR is set on long play then the unit can easily cover a holiday. 8 hours of recording / 2 minutes recording each activation = 240 activations. We use this very effectively in schools over the holiday periods & in isolated storage areas. No need to go every 24 hours to change the tape and reduce the amount of tape to be reviewed. Why record hours of in-activity.
