The Lorex DVM-2051 Digital Video Security System with Color Camera lets you easily turn your PC into an advanced video monitoring station. The DVM-2051 uses a video-grabber, which is compatible with existing analog cameras as well, to connect the included color camera to your PC, and includes certified DVS application software. With the DVM-2051 system, your PC can help you protect your home or business, remotely turn devices on or off, record video evidence for security purposes, and more.
The DVM-2051's color camera is weatherproof, includes a 63-foot connection cable that allows you to install it virtually anywhere, and runs off of an included 12-volt DC power supply. The DVM-2051's video-grabber uses a standard RCA connector for video input, and a standard USB connector for output to PC. The DVS application software allows digital recording of live video to your PC's HDD (hard disk drive), remote viewing for DVR (digital video recorder) from anywhere on the network, and DVR image-print functionality to PC media. This unit features alarm notification via telephone, pager or email, and the ability to turn appliances on and off via X-10 protocol compatibility. The DVM-2051 is Windows 2000 and XP certified, and includes automatic notification of software updates.
