OVERVIEW HNDR-S4824
Honeywell 2004.05.31 (v 2.0) 7
OVERVIEW
1. Introduction
HNDR-S4824 supports 16 analog video channels. Video, Audio, and Text Event-Logs are digitized and
stored on two internal hard-drives. Using a ‘Proprietary Wavelet Algorithm,’ average file size is 1-5KB
while still maintaining clarity high enough for facial-recognition. In addition, Wavelet-compressed
images are impossible to manipulate.
Due to our proprietary Wavelet Algorithm, HNDR-S4824 processes analog video into crisp, clear, and
court-admissible pictures that are up to 500% smaller than comparable to JPEG images. HNDR-S4824
also allows users to record and playback audio for one channel.
Setting-up HNDR-S4824 is as easy as setting up a VCR. HNDR-S4824 starts to record as soon as power
is supplied and CCTV cameras are connected. HNDR-S4824 offers an easy setup, as well as advanced
menus. With ‘Quick Setup’, HNDR-S4824 can be setup and begin recording in 5 minutes. The default
settings offer qualified and efficient way without the hassle of confusing menus.
Equipped with two IEEE 1394 ports (Fire-Wire), HNDR-S4824 can expand its recording capacity to up to
4TB easily. For easy backup, Windows' FAT32 formatted HDD is compatible with HNDR-S4824. Simply
back up the desired data and connect the HDD to your PC to review critical images. And with one USB
port, user can copy small sized images.

Basic Configuration
3. Monitoring
Once power is supplied to HNDR-S4824, all connected channels will be displayed by split monitoring
mode (When 8 analog channels are connected, 9-spilit screens will show). The following steps apply for
all HNDR-S4824’s monitoring menus.
<Note>
HNDR-S4824 supports dual monitor (A, B). Monitor A(Normal) supports all functions, but Monitor
B(Spot) doesn’t support spilit screen, menu setting and zoom function. However when Monitor A runs
