The recorder of a security camera system ensures that your images are stored on a local disk. A recorder ensures that you do not have to take out expensive cloud subscriptions to store the images externally. The recorder also ensures that your images are saved if you lose or break the internet connection. In this article we will tell you in detail what you should pay attention to when purchasing a recorder.
The recorder of a camera system is used to store the images captured by cameras. The recorder is usually quite flat and has a built-in hard drive. Depending on the amount of images you want to record, several hard disks can sometimes be placed in the recorder. With a connected TV screen (HDMI connector) it is possible to directly view the images from the connected cameras. You can therefore view live images via the screen, but it is also possible to view images from the past. A recorder automatically deletes the oldest images when the memory is full. There are no monthly or annual charges for a recorder.
The recorder is also connected to the internet connection. This internet connection allows the recorder to connect to the internet. If you install the app on your phone, it can connect to the recorder and play live images. You can also view old images. If you are close to the recorder and connected to the same network, you can also quickly review the images.
