PV-1000AHD Feature Focus:
Wi-Fi Functionality for Remote Control
With the integrated Wi-Fi connectivity, you can control and monitor recordings remotely through your smartphone via the LawMate PV-Cam Viewer App as long as they are on the same Wi-Fi network. This feature is valuable for discreet surveillance, allowing you to make adjustments or review footage on your phone instead of taking out the DVR. Remote access minimizes disruption and maximizes operational efficiency.
Third-party cameras connection option
The new addition of a BNC male connector adds the option to connect the PV-1000AHD DVR to any compatible third-party camera, allowing for compatibility beyond LawMate’s models and offering flexibility for if you have preferred existing camera equipment.
Digital and Analog camera In
The PV-1000AHD supports both analog cameras and digital cameras. For digital cameras, it is compatible with the bestseller BU-18Neo Button camera, which was previously only compatible with the PV-500Neo Pro DVR. As for analog cameras, LawMate released a new BU-18AHD button camera, which offers 1080p recording quality.
Multiple recording modes
The PV-1000AHD offers four different recording modes, allowing you to capture video based on specific needs and situations: Standard or continuous recording, best suited for situations where constant surveillance is required, such as monitoring an area or recording long events. Motion detection records only when motion is detected within the camera’s view. This helps save storage space and battery life by avoiding unnecessary footage when there is no activity. It is useful for security monitoring or covert surveillance, as it captures only relevant events. Pre-Event recording captures a short amount of footage before the recording is manually triggered. It ensures that you don’t miss the moments leading up to an event, which is helpful in unexpected situations where reaction time is limited. Pre-Motion recording is similar to pre-event recording, but this mode saves footage a few seconds before motion is detected. It is ideal for situations where you need to see what happened just before movement occurred, ensuring you capture the full context of an event.
Built-in Storage and up to 512 SD Card Support
The DVR features built-in 32GB eMMC storage for Pre-Event and Pre-Motion recording modes. When a selected video period is recorded, it is saved to the memory card, freeing up eMMC storage for new recordings. The PV-1000AHD supports up to a 512GB SD card. This gives you plenty of storage for long recording sessions or high-quality video. With both built-in and expandable storage, you won’t have to worry about running out of space, even for important or long-term recordings.
Compact and Discreet Design
Measuring only 140mm x 84mm x 19mm, the PV-1000AHD’s slim design makes it easy to carry and conceal. Its lightweight and small form factor make it ideal for undercover applications, allowing for convenient integration into various surveillance setups without drawing attention.
