» Dectel Remote Image Management

Our management solution has been designed to reduce the involvement of branch/site staff and head office management in the day to day running of security surveillance systems. Our development of the hardware, software and remote administration service reduces your input to the absolute minimum, and in normal operation there is no need for any staff involvement.

Typical functions of traditional systems have involved staff in film change, daily tape rotation and the creation of audit logs. These actions also have a resource issue on the head office security team through support and training for the branch/site staff.

With the obvious benefits that are available from digital storage mediums in terms of instant access to information, DectelÂ?s remote management service has been designed to remove the burden from branch/site and head office, whilst complying with the recommendations and procedures detailed in the various codes of practice for ensuring data integrity.

Elements of the service include:

  • Validation of recorder installation

The Multiscope II has the flexibility to record with any number of cameras from one to the biggest city centre system. The ability to access both live and recorded information from any number of remote sites, linked to simultaneous multi user access, increases the effectiveness offered to the user, and provides more comprehensive support to staff in multi site retail style environments.

Regardless of the number and location of recorders a remote LAN/WAN user can view any camera from any recorder as if it were just one system. This is due to the open architecture style networking ability, which can be connected to any type of network.

Using secure RAID Level 5 recording the Multiscope II has virtually no limit on the size of its database. Images are recorded using high quality, encrypted MJPEG Compression.

It is simple to search for images by time and date, camera number or motion detection. These images are easily archived to either CD or Videotape.
