Remote Viewing and Recording on Pelco CCTV System

[ianmatari 0]

I have several pelco dvr and cameras and.. I have a requirement to remotely view and record (mainly remote recording), of CCTV cameras.

 

the whole idea is to centrally view and record. So there will be recording locally from individual DVRs, and also remotely on a central Server. Central Recording server and DVRs will be connected thru internet(network).

 

So my main question is, if there is a software that allows remote viewing and recording of Pelco CCTV systems.

 

ps: the reason i want this is, incase the local DVR HDD gets damaged(eg. fire), i will have a central backup of all the recordings.

 

Thanks.

Is your remote recording on the same network as the CCTV system? If not, you may have a very difficult time getting reliable recording over the internet.

Yes its the same network..

I am not super familiar with Pelco gear, but there is normally a way to transfer all of your stuff via FTP. Perhaps you could setup a NAS with a built in FTP server and have that do what you are looking for.
