Introduction
What is …
SD Range ?
A comprehensive, digital recording solution, the SD Range allows customers to improve the
functionality of their CCTV solution without increasing their budget.Offering either JPEG or
MPEG-4 recording at scalable quality settings in PAL or NTSC format, the SD Range provides the
user with both high quality video images and minimum storage consumption.
Available with either 8, 12, 16 or 32* camera inputs and offering telemetry control, the SD range has
built in Alarm functionality and onboard Activity detection software. The MultiMode recording feature
enables different recording rates, resolutions and compression formats to be set across scheduled,
normal, and alarm modes for each individual camera.
Its size and design enables it to be an ideal desktop solution, a perfect replacement for an existing
VCR/Mux installation, or an outstanding rst-time CCTV solution.
The user interface has a colour coded ‘Softkey’ interface and the conguration menus are common
to both the local monitor and web interface, making for easy set-up and operation.
The SD Range includes both an integrated CD-R Writer and USB ports for video archiving. The unit
also offers integrated text support, allowing users to connect with cash registers in retail applications
to monitor Point Of Sale (POS) locations. Capturing and associating video with the relevant text
information allows the user to search video footage by time, event, and text data to provide evidence
of fraud or to aid identication of regular offenders.
Among the many other features included as standard on the SD Range are; multiway display, picture
in picture viewing, remote monitoring using NetVu ObserVer, which uses DM’s unique TransCoding
capabillities to provide uent live and replay images, plus Dedicated Micros’ trademark plug and play
set-up with a user-friendly interface to keep installation and operator training to a minimum.
With telemetry control of up to 32 cameras, including coax telemetry, control of dome cameras,
audio recording and activity detection. The SD Range is the ideal product for single site and small to
medium sized businesses wishing to deploy a fully functional digital recording solution.
* 4 camera input model available after future development.

If any of these items are missing please contact Dedicated Micros Technical Support team.
Note: Before installing the SD DVR, carefully read all Safety Instructions and the following
information on where the unit should be located.
Choosing a location for installation
• The SD is designed to be desk, shelf or rack mounted. Rack mounting brackets are
available as an optional accessory.
• Ensure the SD unit is properly ventilated to protect from overheating.
• Ensure there is a 3cm gap on both sides of the unit.
• Ensure the IR receiver on the front of the unit faces the operator position, and is not
more than 10 feet (3 metres) from the operator. An IR Remote Control Extender is also
available.
• Ensure the unit is not located anywhere it could be subject to mechanical shocks.
• The unit should be located in an area with low humidity and a minimum of dust. Avoid
places like damp basements or loft spaces.
• If the unit is to be installed in a closed assembly, the maximum operating temperature
must not exceed 40°C (104°F).
• Ensure there is reliable earthing of the mains outlet when tted to supply connections
(other than direct connection to the branch circuit).
• Any branch circuit supplying the unit must be rated at 15Amps.
• It is recommended that an uninteruptable power source be connected to the unit in
case of power failure (to ensure continuous operation of the unit).
Electrical Connections
Please ensure the following are available and have been tested prior to the installation:

Quick Overview Of Default SD Record Settings
SD units provide out of the box:
High performance recording on ALL cameras with minimal conguration.
Consistent recording duration and smooth motion video per camera regardless of the number of
cameras.
The product range has Normal, Medium and Low record rate models.
Normal
Continuous 5pps MPEG4 recording on all cameras, on all channel variants (default out of the box).
Medium
Continuous 2pps MPEG4 recording on all cameras, on all channel variants (default out of the box)
Low
Continuous 1pps MPEG4 recording on all cameras, on all channel variants (default out of the box)
Complete Flexibility
The picture quality can be increased if less than 30 or 60 days standard recording is required.
The advanced record menu can be used to congure individual cameras to suit specic
requirements e.g. Entry/Exit routes. Various storage sizes are available dependant on the
combination of the number of cameras, the 30 or 60 day storage options, and the Normal, Medium
and Low record rates selected.
With Global record rates of up to 100pps (PAL) and 120pps (NTSC), the SD Range offers recording
of up to 5pps on each camera, out of the box, at a record duration of 7, 14, 30 or 60 days (the
default is 14 or 30 days depending on variant).
Note: It is the Installer/Owner’s responsibilty to ensure that the record duration is set to the
necessary requirements of the application.
MultiMode Recording
The unit supports MultiMode recording, which is a storage technology developed by Dedicated
Micros. This offers the ability to set different recording rates, resolutions and compression formats
across scheduled, normal and alarm modes for each individual camera.
By varying the quality, bit rate and le size of the recorded images, the MultiMode function can
increase recording capabilities of the unit.
MultiMode offers:
Ability to set different recording resolutions.
Ability to set and switch MPEG or JPEG compression recording as required.
Ability to set PPS recording rate per camera.
Dynamically switchable resolution when switching from Normal to Event recording.
Dynamically switchable compression between MPEG4 and JPEG from Normal to Event
recording.
Differences between MPEG-4 and MJPEG(JPEG)
JPEG (short for Joint Photographic Experts Group) is an ISO/IEC standard algorithm for the
compression of digital still images. It can reduce les sizes to ve percent of the original size
although some detail is lost at that level of compression. Ratios of 10:1 to 20:1 may provide little
noticeable loss. The more the loss can be tolerated, the more the image can be compressed.

SD Range
A video sequence of a scene consists of a number of pictures or frames. In a static scene, the initial
frame contains an image. If there is no movement in the scene, all subsequent frames will contain
the same data. MJPEG recording will record and compress each image individually.
MPEG-4 is used primarily to compress audio and visual (AV) digital data (moving images and
sound). MJPEG is an informal name for multimedia recording where each video frame is separately
compressed as a JPEG image.
If this redundancy were removed and only the changes in scene were recorded, it would be possible
to get a better compression ratio.
MPEG-4 recording uses a keyframe (I-Frame) to record the full scene, then uses the following
frames to record the differences between the I-Frame and each subsequent frame (P-Frames) i.e.
the difference between I-Frame and frame 1, then the difference between frame 1 and frame 2, etc.
These frames enable the true picture to be recorded but the time between I frames determines the
step back/forward interval that can be used.
The advantage of MPEG-4 recording is that, in static scenes, it requires less disk space to record a
time period than the equivalent JPEG recording. It is important to select an I-frame rate sufcient for
accurate recording whilst maintaining the lower recording requirement of MPEG-4. Note that I-frame
rates are auto set on the SD.
MPEG-4 is better suited to recording static scenes with little or no movement.
Motion JPEG (MJPEG) uses intraframe coding technology similar to the I-frame part of MPEG-
4, but does not use the P-Frame interframe prediction. This makes the degree of compression
capability independent of the amount of motion in the scene as each scene is recorded entirely. This
means that more storage space is required to record a given scene, but there is a lower processor
overhead, and each frame is an individual separate image.
MJPEG is better suited to recording high motion scenes, or scenes during an alarm state.
Note: Dedicated Micros recommends using MPEG4 as a background recording setting; switching
to MJPEG on event or alarm.
