Description
The REC 1-channel digital recorder is the ideal substitute for an existing video recording system
consisting of an analogue video long-play recorder and quad/multiplexer. The user-friendly operation
and simple programming enable fast installation of the equipment and simple, intuitive handling.
The 1-channel digital recorder processes video signals sent by multiplexers. The data isstored on the
built-in, portable hard disk. The hard disk is automatically overwritten if this feature isselected. This enables
continuous, loss-free recording of video data in constant high quality over severalyears. No tape-changing
is necessary. If required, individual pictures and complete video sequences canbe transferred to a PC and
archived for later use.
