Lorex is an international leader in video surveillance solutions. It offers consumers a wide range of products that include wireless security cameras, network security cameras, observation systems, security DVRs, and surveillance systems. In this article, we will take a look at the Lorex LW2702 Wireless Surveillance System.
This model has just been released and is already receiving accolades for its many innovative features. Of special mention are the digital wireless cameras that have a range of 450 feet, and 40 feet in night vision mode. The receiver is built into a seven-inch LCD screen that can record what the camera stores on a SD card. The system can be connected to a television for big screen viewing via an RCA output.
The LW2702 is a perfect starter kit for small office suite or a modest home. It is very easy to set up and use. Using Ultra Digital Wireless technology that offers homeowners the very latest advancements, it is able to minimize interference caused by other equipment like cordless phones, wireless routers, and Bluetooth devices. Image quality is also excellent, as is the sound.
There is a secure connection between the cameras and the receiver which gives the homeowner complete privacy.The out-of-range notifications and signal strength functions help you to find the best spot to install the cameras. The LCD monitor has an inbuilt video recorder and a wireless receiver. The system comes with five images for display use on the monitor,for when the camera system is not in use.
The SD memory card can hold 16 GB. Recording can be pre-set to various modes, i. E. When the camera detects motion, a daily time recording, or a manual start and stop recording. Searching for a particular event is made easy with date-stamped recordings. If you want high resolution, you can record at 640 x 480 VGA. For maximum recording time, set the resolution at 320 x 240 QVGA.
The cameras have a two-way intercom function,as well as IR Night Vision. They are covered in a robust metal housing which makes them weatherproof so they can be used outdoors as well as indoors. The cameras images can be set to rotate,or you can view them one at a time or all four at once, the choice is yours.
The intercom function enables communication between the cameras and receiver. Therefore, you can speak and listen to the person in the camera's immediate area. An on-screen menu facilitates easy changing of the settings and also makes searching for recordings quick and simple. The system displays each camera's signal strength on the screen.
The LCD receiver looks just like a digital picture frame and has a minimalistic and clean design. There are no buttons on the front of it. At the rear, you will find the speaker for audio, the antenna, the SD slot, the on/off switch, and a stand for use on a desk or table. There is also a wall mount, an AV port, and the navigation menu and talk button for the intercom.
One of the most useful features on the Lorex LW2702 Wireless Surveillance System is the PIR (Passive Infrared) sensor. Most DVR cameras activate when the pixels change which means that you often get unwanted recordings, e. G. A tree moving or an animal walking past. With the PIR function, recordings will only start when body heat and movement are picked up by the sensor.
