1. GENERAL INFORMATION AND SPECIFICATIONS
1.1. INTRODUCTION
DVR stands for Digital Video Recorder with one common goal, allowing end-users to record / retrieve real time
video files with a few mouse clicks. Within the last decade, video encrypt/decrypt algorithms achieved noticeable
improvement along with the availability of large capacity digital storage devices that draw attention to designing
DVR systems. With this in mind, 247Security Inc. has designed and built the mDVR510x Series equipment to
make this transition smooth for the in-vehicle applications, specifically the transportation industry.
The mDVR510x employs high performance video compression H.264 standard to optimize video/audio data
stream so that it can be sent over a network or stored directly on a local disk. The compression algorithm mainly
runs on a DSP Engine, therefore freeing up valuable resources within the system to do other jobs. The mDVR510x
has features such as dynamic bit rate, controllable frame rate (max 30fps/channel), image quality control, real-
time previewing on all channels, alarm triggers, sensor configuration, easy retrieval and transfer of video files over
WIFI/LAN, GPS tracking and much more. In addition, mDVR510x allows end-users to independently manipulate
these parameters for each camera if desired.

2.2.1. POWER INPUT CONNECTOR
The mDVR510x has a built-in Intelligent power switcher that can operate from +8V ~ +24V DC-IN. The
ON/OFF signal connects to the vehicle’s ignition signal. The mDVR510x uses this signal to trigger the power shut-
off delay and the timing circuitry. The mMVR5100 will remain ON until the shut-off delay time has been reached.
The system will then go through its normal shutdown procedures before completely powering down. The GND
(Common DC ground) signal should be connected to the vehicle common ground.

2.3. CABLE REQUIREMENTS
2.3.1.POWER CABLE
A 15 ft three wire power cable is included for connection between the DVR and your vehicle power and ignition
signals. It is highly recommended that in-line fast blow fuses (7.5 - 10 amps) be installed on the two power input
connections for safety pre-cautions.

2.3.2.EVENT MARKER CABLE
A 15 ft cable is already connected to the Event Marker and pre-wired to a 2X3 Molex connector; the Molex
connector will then connect to the event marker port on the back of the DVR. The event marker uses 3 digital
outputs for Video Lost, Recording & Power LED’s and 1 digital input for the push button. The push button is used
for pre/post trigger recording which when pressed, marks the video files at that specific moment. Pre-event and
Post-event time locking can be configured in the DVR setup.
