The SVAT PI1000 consists of a DVR and color camera contained inside a compact and realistic looking PIR motion sensor. This makes it an excellent choice for those looking for an all-in-one monitoring and recording solution in a unit that is compact, easy to install and use, and most importantly, discreet.
Video is recorded in the MPEG-4 format and is stored to the included 1GB SD card, which goes right inside the DVR. Recording can be continuous or set to begin when motion is detected. Given its limited storage resources, most users will program it for motion recording. To further conserve storage space, users can choose between different quality settings and recording speeds.
Recorded footage can be viewed by transferring the SD card to a computer or by attaching the unit to a TV monitor via its RCA connection. This unit operates on the included AC adapter or on 4 AA batteries (not included).
