Night Owl is excited to offer our U.S. designed and engineered 4K UHD Bluetooth digital video recorder with customizable storage. With secure app-based Bluetooth setup, there is no need to connect a TV or monitor for setup or viewing. You can easily configure your system right from the app on your smartphone or tablet with the Bluetooth connection. While a TV or monitor is not required, with Google Assistant you can use simple voice commands to stream camera footage directly to your TV or monitor, all while remaining hands free. When used with compatible cameras, smart detection technology including human detection, facial capture, and vehicle alerts reduce the risk of false alarms, keeping you safe and well protected. Facial capture lets you see who is on your property by snapping a photo and sending the image to your smart device. Proudly designed and engineered in the USA, our security DVR uses a wired connection for uninterrupted viewing with no delays. Our app gives you control of your DVR and easy access to your recordings, regardless of where you are. Night Owl never charges fees for storage or access to your videos. All recordings are securely stored on a pre-installed hard drive for convenience (hard drive not included with all models). You can view and download the recordings as you need them. This system provides the latest technology to give you the ultimate security experience. NOTE: This DVR is compatible with our DP2 and DP8 series wired cameras and WNIP2 and WNIP8 series Wi-Fi devices.
A: Unfortunately, Night Owl is not able to guarantee compatibility with any 3rd party brands. Often, cameras of the same technology will function with our systems, but we make no assurances. We can only ensure that our products will function with compatible Night Owl product. We apologize for any inconvenience.
Q: What type of wire connections are the video inputs?
A: Hi Mitchell. The wired inputs on the rear of the DVR are BNC ports. You can add up to 8 compatible Night Owl wired BNC cameras to this DVR. You can also add up to 4 compatible Night Owl Wi-Fi devices. Thank you for the question and for choosing Night Owl.
A: Good afternoon. We sell security systems with recorders intended to capture security recordings from cameras. This is a standalone DVR meant to be used with compatible Night Owl cameras. We, Night Owl, do not have a recorder to be used for recording cable TV. Thank you.
Q: Will this work with a fiber optic internet connection
A: The DVR must be connected to a Router or modem using the included Ethernet cable.
A: You have to put your own hard drive in this one. It does say that it doesnt come with one. It is very easy to do though.
Q: Can I connect a wireless camera although I already have wired cameras connected?
A: Yes, you can add up to 4 compatible Wi-Fi devices.
Q: Will this unit accept an internal hard drive?
A: Yes, its very easy to install.
