"P" irises feature additional capabilities for improving footage clarity.)

CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)

Q: What is the maximum distance for the night vision?

A: The maximum distance for night vision is 100 feet.

Q: How many cameras are included in the system?

A: This system includes eight cameras.

Q: What is the storage type for the recordings?

A: The recordings are stored on the recorder’s hard drive.

Q: Does the system support recording audio?

A: This security system records audio.

Q: Are there any subscription fees for using the mobile app?

A: This system is a one-time purchase and there are no hidden costs.

Q: Can the system be set up without connecting a TV or monitor?

A: This system offers secure app-based Bluetooth setup, so there is no need to connect a TV or monitor for setup or viewing.

Q: How large is the local hard drive? Does the content just keep recording over itself once it's full? With 8 cameras, what is the timeframe max recording the hard rive can handle before it loops back over and starts recording fresh content?

A: Thank you for the question and happy to help. This system includes a 2TB HD for local recording. There is not an easy way to estimate max recording as you have the ability to record 24/7 or via event based recording. As a guideline though, if all were recording at all times you could assume at least 5 days of full recording before prior footage would be over-written. Once a clip has been identified you also can remove via USB drive to store safely for future use. We also offer 4TB solutions should longer duration be of value to you. Thanks, Night Owl SP Digital Support Team

Q: Can the spot light function be turned off?

A: Absolutely — yes, the spotlight can be turned off on those cameras! You have full control over the spotlight in the camera settings. You can: • Turn the spotlight off completely • Set it to activate only when motion is detected • Adjust sensitivity, schedules, and other deterrence settings All of this is managed through the Night Owl Protect app or directly through the NVR’s camera settings menu. If you need the exact steps, I can provide them too. — Night Owl SP Digital Support Team

    Good But Could Be Better

    Easy set up. Picture is good although I still cannot read license plates going by. I had a hard time setting the sensitivity using the slider button. It kept reverting back to High Sensitivity even though I saved it. I selected the appropriate areas not to record then used the Vehicle, Person, Motion and Face for my settings depending on camera location and that seemed to set my sensitivity. The previous Night Owl system I had lasted 10 years. Hope I can get at least 5 years out of this one before I have to replace it. I do recommend.
