Overview
The RoomWatch a great camera for use as a mobile or temporary CCTV solution.
n a commercial setting you might use the RoomWatch to target specic problem areas such as
tills, stock rooms or areas prone to vandalism. The beauty of the camera is that it has both R to
give some light at night as well as a P R movement detector so you can "activate" recording only
when necessary.
2 way audio gives the RoomWatch extra functionality, not only can you see and hear what is
happening on location you can actually talk back to site. This might be something soothing like
re-assuring your child or pet or more sinister such as warning o a shoplifter or prowler.
Setting up the RoomWatch is easy using your Zip DVR or NVR interface and once set up the
RoomWatch is a fully mobile unit that you can move to wherever suits you without having to re-
program it.
