    • Camera Infrared Distance: 100 feet (The distance over which the camera's infrared, or night vision, capabilities can detect objects.)
    • Camera Iris: Fixed (The iris is the opening on a camera that controls how much light reaches its image sensor, which in turn affects image/video clarity. Fixed and manual irises are generally suited for locations with consistent levels of light. Automatic and "P" (precise) irises automatically adjust in response to changing levels of light and are suited for a wider variety of environments. "P" irises feature additional capabilities for improving footage clarity.)
    • Image Sensor Type: CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)

Night Owl is excited to offer our U.S. designed and engineered 4K UHD Bluetooth digital video recorder with wired 4K UHD spotlight cameras and pre-installed hard drive. With secure app-based Bluetooth setup, there is no need to connect a TV or monitor for setup or viewing (optional). Our patent pending recorder has built-in Bluetooth technology, making it easy for you to configure your system right from the app on your smartphone or tablet. 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. Each camera has 1-way audio (speaker) which works with our built-in siren and preset voice alerts. From within the app, you can easily activate the built-in siren, startling intruders and sending them packing. Have a guest but can’t get to them? Use a preset voice alert to let them know! 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. Motion-activated spotlights flood your yard with bright lights when human motion is detected, instantly warding off trespassers.

Q: are these continuous recording or only motion detection

A: As soon as motion is detected it begins to record to same disc space, but you can set it to record 24/7

Q: What all comes in the box?

A: 6 4K cameras with mounting hardware, 6 black 60' CAT5e patch cables and a mouse + HDMI cable (Both mouse and HDMI are useless and too short by the way, I used my own) Note that typically wireless mice will not work with these systems so be aware. And the NVR with integrated POE switch and a 2TB drive. Also, some crappy short patch cables but again I used my own. It has to be CAT5e or CAT6 so be aware. The NVR software is VERY, almost too, SIMPLE. Not many options.

Q: If u use the Bluetooth system to start can u still plug in a TV monitor to look at the cameras or do u have to choose just one

A: Great question. You can view the system from the app and from a TV or monitor. You can do both at the same time or choose your preferred method. To setup and view the system from the app on your Smart Device you will need to connect the DVR to your router or working network access point via Ethernet cable. To view on a TV or monitor (1080p minimum) you would simply connect the DVR using the provided HDMI cable. Thank you for choosing Night Owl!

Q: What is the maximum distance I can have a camera from the dvr? Can I just buy more cable to extend it out to 200 or 300 feet?

A: The max run from the DVR is 160ft. If you extend further then 160ft you will need to power the camera where it is mounted.

Q: Do you have to be on the same internet network to view the camera recordings and/or access the live stream?

A: No you don't. You can be in different network to view/access live stream. And Yes, from another county also with different internet service provider using the cell phones.

Q: Hi..when the recording space gets full..will it just continue to over write the oldest recordings? And if yes.. also never running out of recording space then..right ? Thks..jt

A: It does loop back and record over older videos but this is pretty standard with recording devices of most kinds. It does have options or settings for what it should do once storage is full.
