DNS-722-4 / DNS-726-4 2-Bay Network Video Recorder (NVR)

Trustworthy Surveillance

+ Reliable network camera surveillance recorder for home and business + Record video from up to 8 network cameras to network storage (HDD is not included) + View real-time video of all 8 cameras from anywhere in your home or ofce, or remotely via the Internet + Allows concurrent viewing and recording
The answer to expensive, outmoded, analog CCTV surveillance systems has arrived. When coupled with D-Links high-resolution and feature-rich IP cameras, the Network Video Recorder (NVR) offers a comprehensive video display, storage, and management solution. The D-Link NVR provides reliable high-quality remote monitoring functionality at a fraction of the cost of conventional surveillance systems.

Instant Live View

D-Links intuitive GUI interface simplies viewing live and recorded video from the NVR. The camera status page shows connection and recording status, along with frame rate and bit rate information for each camera. Total available recording time for the system is also clearly displayed for each NVR.
Powerful Event Management

Convenient Interface

+ Effortless network camera setup and management + User-friendly interface provides simultaneous live view, recording and playback + Continuous or scheduled recording with automatic overwrite function + Reliable backup and power failure recovery functions
Live Monitoring & Camera Adjustment
The NVR centrally controls the digital output, e-mail notications and recording for all the connected cameras. Input triggers from camera motion detection or digital input interfaces can additionally be monitored. These events will be logged, with optional notications via e-mail or output devices. Users can set up multiple contact lists for event notication. A straightforward logging system organizes events by date for easy recall.
Users are provided with a variety of options for viewing and organizing camera footage on-screen. For a system with multiple channels, users can simply drag and drop selected cameras to the viewing area. Camera names and recording status is displayed via OSD to aid in identication. Presets from within the interface can be set to instantly restore a previously saved view. A single camera may be viewed full-screen with optional two-way audio. Users can control pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ) functions from within the interface using the provided interface buttons or by directly clicking on the video.

Intelligent Playback

Precision Technology
+ Smart Search technology accelerates and simplies event investigation1 + Green solution: Consumes less power and eliminates the need for a dedicated PC for continuous recording + Live monitoring includes full-screen, snapshot and pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ) control + Precision playback with step/ fast forward/rewind and video enhancement + Export video as AVI or ASF with timestamp + Calendar search and video preview before playback
Searching through recorded data can be tedious and frustrating. However, the NVRs smart search function makes detecting notable events effortless. By selecting a target area on the video and setting search sensitivity, the smart search will traverse the video database based on specied search criteria to locate noteworthy events. Search criteria include options such as motion detection, missing or abandoned object, lost focus or camera occlusion. (DNS-726-4 only) After selecting a desired video period for display, the NVR can instantly begin playback. The DNS-726-4 supports 4 channel simultaneous playback and the DNS-722-4 supports 1 channel playback. Playback speed control allows for up to 16x speed fast forward or fast backward play. The step playback option displays one frame at a time. Additionally, users can enhance the recorded video with controls such as brightness, contrast, and sharpness. During playback, if a user uncovers video that needs to be exported, two formats are available. The AVI and ASF le formats will transpose a timestamp on the exported video. If a printer is connected to the users PC, the NVR can also print the selected still image.

Extensive Recording Functionality
A clear single-page interface assists with conguration including compression, resolution and frame rate for all connected cameras. The NVR records video from up to 8 local and remote IP cameras. A total of 2 NVRs can be combined and administered with D-Links bundled 16 channel management software. Once cameras have been set up, a highly congurable scheduling system allows for continuous recording or recording during specically allotted timeframes. Each camera can be set to record independently at preset intervals. The NVR also provides event recording based on specic triggers. The NVR can be congured to overwrite the oldest data automatically when HDD space runs out, allowing for continuous and uninterrupted recording. Users can specify the number of days the recording should be kept (within the limits of the HDD capacity). For example, if the NVR has the capacity to store 7 days of recording, using the overwrite option, the NVR will record the 8th day and delete the 1st day. The NVR also provides the option to stop recording when the HDD is full. Should the disk reach capacity, a notication can be sent via e-mail or to an external device such as an audible alarm or LED display via a DI/ DO interface only.

SURVEILLANCE

Easy Setup and Conguration
+ Directly connectable to the Internet (PPoE) without the need to install a remote router + Supports PPPoE, DHCP and Static IP assignment + 2-bay SATA 3.5 HDD interface + Up to 3TB of hard disk storage space of recorded video2 + RAID 0/1 and JBOD support
The D-Link NVR ensures the security and integrity of IP camera footage. Administrators may lter external connections to the NVR by IP address, limiting access and thus increasing security. Administrators may also choose access privileges for users by specifying the cameras they may access to for live view, playback, audio and PTZ functions. Recorded data is stored in a secure database. This recorded data can be backed up to additional storage locations periodically or whenever needed. The NVR also includes the option to protect data using a RAID 1 conguration. RAID 1 duplicates the recordings database onto two separate drives. In the event of an HDD failure, data integrity is maintained on the secondary HDD. A UPS can be used as emergency power supply for the NVR. The UPS uses a USB interface to notify the NVR to perform a proper shutdown before battery power runs out. In the event of a power failure without a UPS, the NVR will boot up automatically once power is restored. Of course, the security of data is irrelevant unless the device itself is protected from theft. For this reason, the sleek NVR enclosure is compact and easy to conceal in a secure remote location. A front panel lock protects the HDD and a rear panel lock can be used to secure the NVR with a cable.

Complete Network Functionality
The D-Link NVR takes advantage of existing network architecture, taking advantage of features such as PPPoE and ADSL services. The NVR can acquire an IP address from a DHCP server to become easily searchable during installation. Dynamic DNS is supported for systems operating without a xed IP address. The NVR can then be reached from the internet using an easy to remember domain name provided by the DDNS service. Maintaining an accurate record of time is essential if recorded data is to be used as evidence. To ensure that the recorded time is always accurate, the NVR can update the system clock from an internet server using the Network Time Protocol (NTP).

Dependable Data Security

The Multi-NVR Viewer supports simultaneous display of up to 16 channels. Easily organize the view by directly dragging and dropping video onto the display window. Cameras managed by the NVR can be viewed as individual sites or categorized into groups. The Playback Manager includes a clean and simple web GUI interface that allows users to play, search or export video. The Backup and File Manager is a exible backup utility that simplies the process of backing up video data from the NVR to external storage.

Network Setup Using D-Link NVR
Aninternal SATA drive is required to store video les. RAID 1 mirroring requires the use of two internal SATA drives. 3TB capacity when two 1.5TB 3.5 hard disks are installed in your NVR. Disk capacity may increase pending future advances in HDD technology.
3 To avoid data incompatibility in RAID 1 operation,
use SATA drives from the same manufacturer. Formatted drive capacity for RAID 1 operation is dependant on the drive capacity of the lowestsized drive. Older generation SATA drives may be incompatible. For a list of SATA drives that have been tested to work with your D-Link NVR, visit D-Link support web sites.
