"The video quality is amazingly clear - a big improvement over what we had before," says James Hutcheson of Riverside Nursery, an early user of DVR5100. "And searching for video events is instantaneous. What used to take hours now takes just a few seconds."

With the ability to record up to 30/25 (NTSC/PAL) images per second (ips) at 4CIF resolution on each channel, DVR5100 shatters previous performance barriers for DVRs in its class. Combined with reliability and storage management (with up to 1 TB of internal storage), the DVR5100 Series is made for a wide range of video security applications - from retail to banking and beyond. And because DVR5100 is Endura enabled, it can operate either as a stand-alone or as part of an Endura system.

The value and performance of DVR5100 is extended even further with unique EnduraStor technology. Video recorded at higher frame rates can automatically be reduced to 2 ips after a predetermined time, effectively giving users more days of storage. And with built-in Truimage viewing capability, the frame rate and resolution of the video being recorded is identical to the frame rate and resolution seen in live display.

"We can review operations without having to walk around the entire facility" says Steve Hergenrader of Break the barriers, another early user of the DVR5100. "Image quality lets us see exactly what's going on. The quality and reliability of the DVR5100 gives me peace of mind - it lets me go home and rest easy at night."

Yvonne Schwemmer, Pelco Product Sales Manager for the DVR5100, says, "We have set a new standard for ease of use with the DVR5100. The front panel control includes a joystick, jog and shuttle, which are integrated with an intuitive colour-coded, icon-based interface. This makes the DVR5100 easy and effortless to use. We've also provided a powerful quick export function that writes digitally authenticated video to the standard DVD writer or a USB stick. Users won't have to fuss with user manuals to operate the DVR5100."
