MemoCam

MemoCamTM is a complete stand-alone digital CCTV system in a single device. It is a high performance B/W camera with automatic digital recording contained in a single compact enclosure.

The MemoCamTM system includes a CCD camera, a video compression engine, a removable Memory Card and a PIR detector. It automatically records events on the memory card following an alarm. The recording can be activated by an external open contact, an internal PIR detector, video motion detection or by an external remote control unit.

To analyze the recorded events, the memory card can be removed from the MemoCamTM unit and images downloaded to a PC using a Memory Card Reader.


Main Features
  • Stand-alone integrated CCTV system packaged in a standard PIR detector case.

  • B/W camera.

  • Automatic recording upon alarm.

  • Standard 16 Mb Multi media card can contain up to 3000 recorded images on a single card.128 Mb card can contain up to 24000 images.

  • Automatic setup using the Memory Card.

  • User defined image quality, frame rate, and recording time per event, delay between frames, and more.

  • Remote Control unit.

  • Covert case.

 

Benefits
  • The stand-alone MemoCam replaces the classic Time Lapse DVR + PIR detector + Camera equipment set.

  • Modular solution from single camera to multiple site/multiple camera systems.

  • Easy to use PC software.

  • Economical system expansion.

 

Applications
  • Image and event recording anywhere, especially where wire connections are impossible or difficult.

  • Unattended automatic recording at any site.

  • Mobile applications.

 

Operation

One or more stand-alone unit can be placed at a different site location and set-up using the memory card.

When the MemoCamTM is armed, using the remote control unit the camera starts recording when the alarm is triggered. The recording process can also be activated by pressing the REC button on the remote control unit, whether the unit is armed or not. All images are stored to the memory card.

Device Setup

All camera functions are configured on the Memory Card. The configuration parameters are setup using the MemoCam™ software on a PC connected to a Memory Card reader. Configuration parameters include:

  • Recording.

  • Triggering.

  • Arming.

  • Maintenance (e.g. Clear the memory, Status of available memory, etc.)

  • Image retrieval.

  • Time and Date.


Remote Control Unit

Each camera is equipped with a remote control unit with the following functions:

  • Arm.

  • Disarm (Code-protected).

  • Record frame.

  • Preset functions.


Arming/Disarming

Each camera can be armed or disarmed using the remote control.


Event Recording

A new event file is recorded upon alarm activation. Each event is recorded according to the MemoCam™ configuration as follows:

  • Fixed memory mode - Recording stops when the memory card is full.

  • Cyclic mode - When the memory card is full, new events are recorded over previous events in the memory card queue.



Image Retrieval

Compressed images can be retrieved from the removable memory card using a memory card reader connected to a PC via a USB Card Reader.
