Introduction
Help protect what matters most, even when you can't be there.
Logitech Alert™ Video Security System comes with everything you need to help
protect what's
important to you-smart cameras, powerful software, and the
ability
to keep you informed.
Set up is simple and takes just minutes. HomePiug® networking uses your exist-
ing electrical wiring and outlets
to connect the camera to your network without
new wires or configuration hassles.
You can view live video from your system from Internet-connected computers.
And if someone
or something moves in front of a camera, video is recorded
directly
to the camera's microSD™ card. You can receive an alert in e-mail, on
your mobile phone, or both.
Logitech Alert Video Security.
Set it up yourself, count on it when you need it.
