High capacity storage is not the only outstanding feature, it has High Definition recording capability in 4 Channels mixing 1080P, 960P, 720P AHD & any Standard CVBS Video Cameras.  The DVR1080P records continuously, and its “Pixel Recognition” technology enables the device to begin recording when there is an event or change in its immediate viewing range when parked. This “event” will be marked and not recorded over until it is reviewed and the GPS model records vehicle location(s) with Time and Date Stamp for archiving.

The exclusive allocation file system solves the file fragmentation and lost file issues found in other systems. For Fleet Operators employing a variety of vehicles our DVR1080P has variable operating Voltage from 8 – 36 Volts. Security is provided with a lockable door protecting the dual SD Cards. Super stable, Anti-shock, Aviation quality connectors plug in and screw tightly to ensure durability and easy installation.
