Stack DVR2-400 Video System - Single Channel Recorder

For video recordings on the move, Stack�_ miniature Solid-State Digital Video Recorders (DVRs) provide the optimum solution and are specifically designed for use in harsh environments. Stack recorders employ broadcast standard MPEG-2 video compression to record real-time video and audio direct to a Compact Flash (CF) card. The card can be removed with ease and played on a PC or laptop using a standard media player application.

For the most demanding applications, the DVR2-400 can be used in harsh environments including high vibration and extreme temperatures and has a IP67 standard waterproof rating and utilises Mil-type connectors. Stack�_ DVR2-400 offers professional performance even under the most difficult conditions including wet and/or high vibration environments. The unit is fully waterproof and boasts an extended operating temperature range of 0��C to 70��C.

The DVR2-400 offers 9 x recording bit rate (1 Mbps Min. 15 Mbps Max.) 9-140 Mins / Gbyte, Up to 18 hours of DVD quality (Composite) video can be recorded on a single 32GB CF card.

As well as the conventional record mode, the DVR2 range also provides a continuous loop record mode, whereby once the CF card becomes full, the DVR continues recording, overwriting the oldest recordings. The DVR2 range also include an ��vent Recording��mode, to enable specific externally triggered events to be recorded, with user selectable pre-trigger and post-trigger periods.

Note
Stack recorders can be connected to a PC over USB and then put into card reader mode, so that MPEG2 files on the CF card can then be played back in a media player on the PC (whilst the CF card is still in the DVR).
