"Instead of requiring a serial port, the PBe leverages the user's Ethernet network," said Robert Siegel, GE Security's General Manager for Video and Software Solutions. "Because a serial connection is not needed, wiring is simplified and costs are reduced."
Data, which is synchronized with recorded video, can be viewed on a GE DVMRe or StoreSafe® Pro unit or via a remote connection using WaveReader software. Users can search for data by any combination of time, date, camera, transaction number, or transaction text.
The new PBe provides installers with system set-up flexibility since it can be connected to computers or laptops for setup and configuration. Installers simply enter multiple addresses in a multi-drop ATM or POS network.
All data is stored in nonvolatile memory, so settings are retained even when power is removed from the unit. GE's new ProBridge with Ethernet is available now.

GE Security Provides Networked Connection Between ATM Text and Video Recorder
BRADENTON, FLA. (USA)
GE Security´s new ProBridge with Ethernet, or PBe, captures ATM or point-of-sale (POS) transaction text and associates it with recorded video without needing a serial port or its associated wiring costs. When connected to a presently installed 10/100 Ethernet network between the ATM or POS and video recorder, the PBe converts text to a format that is easily read by GE Security's digital video multiplexer recorders and can address up to 16 IP-based terminals.
