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

Q: Does the DVR need a wired internet connection or can it connect wireless? Also, I live in ND where the temperatures can be -30. I know the specs say minimum of 14 but I'm curious if anyone has installed in cooler weather and if they function.

A: Thanks for a couple of great questions! The DVR does require a wired Ethernet connection to your modem or router for smartphone viewing. In terms of temperature, the listed values are what we've test the camera down to, they can work in cooler temperatures, but length of time exposed may be a factor.

Q: The cameras on this unit states "one-way audio" ability. Does the BNC connection collect audio for each camera? Does DVR automatically record audio & output to speaker output plug on DVR? How sensitive is each camera's microphone?

A: Great question HorizontalMike. The DVR has four RCA audio inputs to which microphones can be connected. The cameras included do not have microphones built in, you would need to purchase them from another manufacturer. Audio recording can be turned on or off as needed. Be sure to review local laws regarding audio recording.

Q: 1st Question = Can I get alerts on my phone when camera is on motion activated recording. 2nd Question = Can I have a single camera on motion and the others on full time recording.

A: Great question Cooker! The answer to both questions is absolutely YES! Motion alerts can be sent to your smartphone and you can schedule your cameras in any combination you like!

Q: Does the system record in color or just black in white?

A: Great question Richg. The DVR is capable of recording in full colour. Black/White refers to the color of the camera body itself. Daytime vision is shown and recorded in colour. Nightvision is recorded in black and white infrared.

Q: I understand that this system can do continuous recording or H.264. Is it possible for the system to record on motion or Motion JPG? I would prefer not to have to sort through hours of video to locate an event/incident.

A: Great question Gil! With this system you can record in motion only giving you the ability to save time by only recording relevant events! Thank you for your interest in Defender, whichever model you choose, you’ll get the peace of mind you’re looking for with Defender!

Q: Is daytime footage in color ?

A: Thanks for your question Steveo. These cameras record full colour during the day in a bright setting. Once night falls or the room is dark, black and white infrared will activate.

Q: Does this system record audio? If it doesn't can you recommend a system that does?

A: The head unit has connection for audio but the cameras in this kit do not have audio outputs .

Q: I have ordered the 16 camera system but am unsure If I can hook the dvr to my hdmi port on the back of my PC. Will my PC monitor serve/operate same as hooking the dvr to a HD TV? Thanks for any response.

A: Great question. You would need to connect the DVR directly to the monitor. If you connect it to a laptop or a computer tower, those connections are usually video outputs and do not accept video from other devices.
