Mobile DVR solutions are RUGGED Digital Video Recorder systems that have been built SPECIFICALLY for TRANSIT / TRANSPORTATION based video surveillance. A mobile DVR (digital video recorder) has been specially designed for applications in buses, trucks, taxi, trams, metro, ambulance and other private vehicles.
The main difference between a regular DVR and a mobile DVR lies in the environments in which they are meant to be used.
POWER SUPPLY –  a regular DVR draws power from adaptor / indoor power supply And has steady voltage – DC 12V and constant power supply. Whereas, a mobile DVR is powered by the vehicle & supports wide voltage input/ unstable voltage during engine start-up or braking when voltage falls to 8V or less or spikes up to as high as 36V.
ANTI-VIBRATION MECHANISM –  a mobile DVR is constructed keeping in mind the Vibration which is inevitable in vehicles as they are constantly in motion; which may lead to mechanical failure. The mobile DVR uses materials used for anti-vibration / shock-proof mechanisms.
DUST PREVENTION & HEAT DISSIPATION – a regular DVR is installed in open/well ventilated area and has simple design to dissipate heat working temperature range -10° ~50°C. A mobile DVR is made for installation in confined spaces and compartments where working temperature may range from -20° ~70°C and up to 95% humidity. The material & construct of the DVR allows heat dissipation and reduces dust from entering.
CONSTRUCT – a regular DVR utilizes BNC connector cable whereas the mobile DVR has aviation specification interface in place to combine devices- a rugged and solid Interface which ensures continuous transmission of power, signals and other data without failure.

DATA TRANSMISSION – regular DVR requires LAN connection / and recommended 4G/3G dongles for data transmission. Does not have GPS, or any secondary data storage option.
A Mobile DVR utilizes Wi-Fi, 4G & 3G networks, which enable real-time transmission of data collected from the vehicle in – video, location, speed and inertial measurements.

Q. What is the difference between a regular DVR and mobile DVR w.r.t remote monitoring?
A. A regular DVR for remote monitoring has the option of cloud and DDNS. A DVR can be directly viewed through the cloud, whereas in the case of mobile DVR a server needs to be created.

The mobile DVR supports AHD technology- supports only analog HD cameras. Analog High Definition.
The mobile DVR is powered by the vehicle it is installed in – connected with the vehicle battery (“RUN” terminal of the ignition switch), and powers on only when the vehicle engine is turned on.

Starting Up the DVR
To start up the DVR with vehicle ignition- DVR + Vehicle Battery Connection:

The ignition switch is connected to the positive pole of the vehicle batteries. Please make sure that the connection is correct, and then follow the procedure below:

1. Connect the “DC IN +” of DVR to the positive pole of vehicle batteries;
2. Connect the “DC IN -” to the negative pole of vehicle batteries;
3. Connect the “KEY +” of DVR to the vehicle ignition switch;
4. Lock the hard disk/ SD Card;
5. When the vehicle is switched on, the DVR will start up with the vehicle.

A. DVR starts along when the engine is turned on, the only time taken is for booting. When the engine is switched off the DVR shuts down within 12 seconds. (Thanks to a built-in super capacitor which works as backup power- in case of sudden outage, the super capacitor keeps the device power on, write all the recorded data into the SD card/HDD and then shutdown the system.)
Yes, the mobile DVR comes with a smart power management system. If the DVR detects that the battery’s voltage is lower than the given value, the device will shut down automatically and switch to its ultralow standby consumption.
Yes, the mobile DVR can handle power/voltage fluctuation. It has an internal power management circuit which stabilizes – unstable/ fluctuation in voltage. It can handle drop in voltage (for example while braking) as low as 8V or spike in voltage as high as 36V.
The Mobile DVR has a built-in super capacitor used as backup power -when the device has a sudden outage, the super capacitor will keep the power on the device running, to write and record data into the SD card/HDD and then shut down the system.
Approximately 4 seconds (in DVR model with dual SD card only)
At present there are the following mobile DVR variants:
The mobile DVR come with anti-vibration mechanism/construct keeping in mind the constant vibration which is inevitable as the vehicles are in motion; which may lead to mechanical failure. The mobile DVR has an anti-vibration & shock-proof mechanism/construct.
The G-sensor or G-shock sensor works by detecting any movement of the vehicle. G-sensor supports in motion detection by Identifying driving habits, and detecting – heavy acceleration/hard braking/sharp turns/crash etc.
A. The following types of alarms can be setup in the DVR:
Video Loss – alarm will be triggered if the camera stops working or if incompatible camera is connected.
Fatigue Driving alarm – You can set up the fatigue driving time, to remind the driver to avoid fatigue driving. The duration is calculated from the time when the device is started.
