Product overview
The MobileView PENTA digital video recording system (DVR) has two models

The central component of the MobileView system is a high-quality DVR, which
records images from eight or sixteen cameras (monochrome or color) depending
on model, dual-channel audio and other information such as the time, date, and
vehicle number. You can adjust image storage capacity by changing your
recording speed, selected resolution, and drive size.
The DVR begins capturing video within 90 seconds of receiving the vehicle’s
ignition signal. It continues to capture data while that signal is present and for a
programmable shutdown delay period after the vehicle ignition signal expires.
Surveillance and event-based video data is stored on a mobile-rated, removable
hard disk drive caddy. When available storage capacity is full, the DVR
automatically overwrites the oldest data with new data in a FIFO (first-in, first-out)
fashion.
Note: Most MobileView products are not supplied with mounting hardware.
Exceptions are noted in the appropriate sections of the manual.
The MobileView solution uses Video Manager software for the review of
surveillance and event-based video stored on the DVR. Video Manager is also

used to configure MobileView operating parameters. The Fleet Manager
application adds remote management tools to automate video download, device
health checking, e-mail notifications, and more.
Retrieving and viewing images
The DVR stores the captured digital images as monochrome or color files, which
you can download to a computer using the MobileView Video Manager software.
The DVR connects to a viewing station through a wired or wireless Ethernet
connection. The viewing station is generally a laptop or desktop PC running the
Windows XP (or Vista) Professional operating system. When you are connected
to the viewing station, you can view or observe live video and log data stored on
the DVR. You can also transfer recorded data to long-term storage media such
as DAT tapes or recordable CDs.
Note: An Ethernet crossover cable is required to connect the DVR to the viewing
station via a wired Ethernet connection.
