LTC 3995 Series digital video recorders from Phillips

June 2000 Surveillance

The Philips LTC 3995 Series are video recording systems that record video images digitally onto an internal hard drive. Playback of the high quality images it produces is accomplished using a standard video monitor. Says Tony Janse, Product Manager at Philips CSI South Africa, "The latest state-of-the-art advanced technology design is incorporated in these units making them easy-to-use for a variety of CCTV surveillance applications including banking, educational, industrial, retail and medical installations."

Specifically designed with surveillance and security in mind, the LTC 3995 digital recorders offer three recording modes of compression: fully automatic recording at user defined time intervals, manual recording and event alarm recording. Event alarm can be activated by alarm contact or an external device.

Pictures are recorded using advanced compression technology to maintain high quality colour or black and white images. The images are stored in the internal 4,3 GB hard drive. Up to eight external hard drives can be added through an external SCSI interface. In the playback mode the user can either quickly select individual images or browse through by a search feature without vertical jitter.

Says Janse, "The use of a hard disk for storage of images in these recorders provide a reliable solution for modern surveillance and observation. Since the picture is digitally recorded, the image quality remains the same regardless of how many are stored or re-recorded."

"Unlike a VCR, which requires head cleaning and frequent maintenance, the LTC 3995 Series digital recorders are virtually maintenance free. Once installed, the system operates without the need for maintenance," he adds.
