Introduction  
Digital versatile recorder for security applications  
Versions  
The Divar is a video recording system that can record multiple camera signals  
while simultaneously providing live multiscreen viewing and playback. It  
combines the functionality of a digital recorder with a multiplexer and a  
switcher.  
There are various Divar models; 6-channel, 9-channel and 16-channel, each with  
various storage capacities. In addition, a Divar can have one or both of the  
following:  
An internal DVD writer  
The unit has comprehensive search (including a smart motion search) and  
playback facilities for viewing stored video. Once set up, all recording takes  
place in the background without requiring operator intervention. Maximum  
recording rates of 60 (NTSC) and 50 (PAL) images per second in total are  
guaranteed with unsynchronized cameras. The recording rate and quality are  
selectable per camera.  
Bilinx-enabled camera inputs  
A Divar with an internal DVD writer allows you to make archives locally  
without the need for a PC. The writer supports DVD+RW, DVD+R, CD-R and  
CD-RW media.  
A Divar Bilinx supports the use of Bilinx cameras. Bilinx technology embeds  
control commands in the video signal enabling direct camera access and control  
through a single video coaxial cable.  
All models have extensive alarm handling functions and telemetry control.  
Alarm functions include motion detection in user-definable areas of the image  
on any camera input.  
The unit can be easily operated and programmed via the front panel control  
keys and on-screen display menu system. One monitor output provides full-  
screen, quad and multiscreen viewing; another spot/alarm monitoring. A  
keyboard can be connected for PTZ control and to improve the ease-of-use.  
This manual describes the 16-channel version with an internal DVD writer and  
Bilinx-enabled camera inputs.  
Both 6-channel and 9-channel versions operate in exactly the same way except  
that fewer cameras can be connected, there are fewer camera keys and the  
number of multiscreen views is reduced. Instructions that only apply to the  
internal DVD writer or Bilinx functionality are indicated by a double (**) or  
triple (***) asterix respectively. If your unit has neither of these facilities, then  
please skip these instructions.  
Via a network, the Control Center PC-application can be used for live viewing,  
playback and configuration. Six simultaneous users can control multiple Divars.  
The Divar includes an authenticity check for both local and remote playback. A  
dedicated PC player is provided for playback of secure video files. Additionally,  
a web browser on a PC can be used to view live images or playback recordings  
from a Divar.  
ATM/POS transaction data can be recorded and viewed if the Divar is  
connected to an ATM or POS device via an ATM/POS bridge unit and has a  
license installed.

Triggers and alarms  
Various types of events can change the way the unit works. These events can be:  
Background events  
Triggers and alarms can change background tasks that you, as user, may not  
even notice. Unit responses that are not visible to the user are, for example, a  
change in recording speed, the activation of the output relay and event logging.  
The unit can also be configured to record and automatically protect video clips  
upon the activation of an alarm input. A trigger may change the way the camera  
images are displayed on the monitors without requiring your intervention.  
An alarm input signal applied to the unit.  
A motion detection signal from a camera.  
A loss of video from one of the cameras.  
An internal alert from the unit itself.  
The way the unit reacts to events depends on how it has been programmed.  
An event causes either a trigger or an alarm. A trigger can change the way the  
unit works but does not require a response from the user. An alarm can also  
change the way the unit works but, in addition, it usually activates several  
indicators and requires that the user acknowledges the alarm situation.  
The unit can react to an event in any one of the following ways:  
Alarms  
A beeper sounds  
A status message is displayed  
An alarm icon is displayed  
The border around a cameo can change color  
An alarm indicator  
The indicator flashes  
An output relay is activated  
,
, or  
flashes  
Alarms and Triggers  
The view modes on the monitors change  
A controllable camera is moved to a pre-defined position.  
Recording speed changes  
The unit changes the way it operates via pre-defined profiles.
