The Longwatch Micro Remote Video Engine is an extremely compact, fully sealed unit comprised of a robust embedded computer running the Windows XP embedded operating system and the Longwatch Video Engine software.
The Micro is particularly designed for applications that require low power consumption or robust performance in wide temperature extremes. All electronics are protected in a ruggedized, aluminum sealed housing that can be conveniently mounted for many different applications. There are no moving parts inside the Micro.
The Micro unit continuously records high quality video from up to two IP camera inputs. The Micro generates and transmits live video as well as video event clips from the plant or remote sites back to the Video Control Center in your central location.
The video clips can be triggered from multiple physical event triggers, such as door switches, motion detectors, PLC outputs, SCADA based alarms, or manually initiated from the SCADA system. Additionally, the Micro can perform video image analysis which transforms any camera connected to the system into a motion detection device.
The Micro also supports access control peripherals such as card readers and keypads enable central management of employee access permissions and can remotely monitor, lock and unlock entry points.
