Overview of the System
The DX4000 serves as the center of a video surveillance system to which many computers can be connected. Figure 1 illustrates that computers
can be connected either directly to the DX4000 or remotely over a network. Figure 1 shows the maximum number of cameras and alarm sensors
that can be connected to the DX4000. Note also that monitors can be connected to the system and can be placed in key locations to view live
video for individual cameras. Two types of backup devices can be connected to the DX4000: a writable CD drive and a USB flash memory device.
Refer to Figure 2 for an example of how computers can be connected to the DX4000 over the Internet.
