8 channel or two 4 channel dvrs

[mr.verbal 0]

Hi I've been doing some research and I currently have NUVICO NVDV-410 N model in one of my stores. Its a reliable model and I've had no problems with it so far.

 

I need a camera and dvr setup for another store I have. I need two 4-channel dvrs. One for watching customers and merchandise. And another one for only me to see in my office for watching employees and behind the counter.

 

Should I use one NUVICO 8-channel dvr or two NUVICO 4-channel dvrs? Does the NUVICO 8-channel dvr have a function where you could split the displays as I described above? I looked at the current NUVICO models the JV series , DV3 series, and the DV4 series. What are the major differences between them?

 

Also what kind of cameras should I purchase? The NUVICO brand or any other brand? And I need the cameras to be in color and medium quality video.

 

If anyone can make any suggestions to this setup please do so.

Thank you for your time.

Nuvico DVR"s have covert camera selection which would not show on screen unless you have the password to see them, and if you use just one DVR then less chance of curious eyes wondering what the other is for. We have had good results using the Nuvico cameras, just depends on what the requirements are for the camera's.

thanks for the suggestion RickA. So with one 8 channel dvr I could split into two screens (two 4 screen monitors). If thats the case, I would get the 8 channel dvr. If anyone has any further camera suggestions it is welcome. Thanks.

Without knowing a little more on the camera requirements, there are a lot of camera's on the market that will fit the general specs you have laid out. You can take a look at the ones we have or any of the suppliers here on the forum. I am sure that we can provide suggestions on camera's if you provide some more info, such as types of shots, locations and lighting conditions.
