Lorex SG14C6044A 14-inch Real Time Quad Observation System with Built-in 1280-hour Time Lapse VCR and Multiplexer

Description

14" Combo w/ 4 Cameras / MLPX

The Lorex SG14C6044A 14-inch Real Time Quad Observation System with Built-in 1280-hour Time Lapse VCR and Multiplexer provides convenience and versatility with a built-in 1280-hour time-lapse VCR that includes 40-hours of real-time capability. This system allows you to view up to four camera locations in multiple viewing options such as quad, sequential, picture-in-picture, full screen, zoom and freeze. Featuring a built-in multiplexer, a dual-motion sensor for pixel and camera based activity, and two-way audio the Lorex SG14C6044A is a complete, feature-rich, self-contained surveillance system perfect for everything from the home or business application, to professional security installations.

The SG14C6044A's 14-inch color monitor can be operated via its built-in main panel or via remote control. Constructed within a durable metal cabinet, this monitor includes four DIN/BNC (Bayonet Neill-Concelman, RF-type) composite video inputs, and four RCA audio inputs. Also included are four alarm inputs with one alarm output. Run via 120-volts AC power, the SG14C6044A's monitor achieves 380 TVL (TV lines) at center resolution and has an operating temperature of 41- to 104-degrees Fahrenheit. The built-in VCR is a dual Azimuth, four-head recorder that has a 250 TVL resolution and 14 selectable recording options. The SG14C6044A's VCR features four selectable recording modes, those being alarm, panic, repeat, and timer so you won't miss a crucial event. As an additional feature, this VCR has a warning buzzer that can sound for an alarm, or to notify you that there is an issue with the signal or that you have reached the end of your tape. The VCR also includes a power-loss memory that can store the most recent 35 events, so you won't lose valuable footage.

The camera that comes with the SG14C6044A utilizes a 0.25-inch color CCD (charge-coupled device) image sensor, and a 3.6mm fixed lens. Powered from the monitor via the connecting cable, this camera achieves a horizontal resolution of 330 TVL and can receive a usable picture in very-low-light conditions with a minimum illumination of 0.5 Lux. The SG14C6044A's camera comes with its own 62-foot connection cable allowing you to install it virtually anywhere, and can operate in temperatures ranging from 14- to 122-degrees Fahrenheit.

• Operating temperature: 14 - 122 degrees Fahrenheit for camera; 41 - 104 degrees Fahrenheit for monitor/VCR
• Monitor/VCR dimensions: 17.5 x 14.5 x 7.5 inches (W x D x H)
• Camera dimensions: 2.5 x 3 x 2 inches (W x D x H)

Designed primarily for indoor use, the Lorex SG14C6044A offers you everything you need in a security surveillance system. Though only one camera is included, the SG14C6044A allows up to four cameras to be controlled, viewed, and recorded all by a single unit. User's should note that the CCD image sensor in the camera may become permanently damaged if exposed to long hours of direct sunlight or halogen light, so the cameras should not be mounted or pointed directly at the sun or other bright-light sources.

About Surveillance Camera Technical Features
Lux rating is the measurement used to indicate how sensitive a camera is to light, and stands for the level of light reflected off a piece of paper by a candle from one meter away. Thus a sensitivity of three Lux would mean a camera could generate an acceptable picture of a piece-of-paper-sized object that was illuminated by the equivalent of three candles from one meter away. The lower the Lux level, the better the camera's ability to work in low-light conditions. The camera's resolution should be greater than or equal to the resolution supported by the system's recorder or monitor. The S/N, or signal to noise ratio, is an important measure of a camera's quality. A poor camera, low-light conditions or poor wiring causes "noise" which consumes processing power and disk space. A camera with a wide dynamic range is ideal, especially for recording areas in which both indoor and outdoor light are present. CCD (charge-coupled device) sensors provide high-quality images that are less susceptible to noise. CMOS (complimentary metal-oxide semiconductor) sensors offer less image quality, but are usually more cost-effective and energy efficient.
