The Focos EAVS digital network video server integrates the highest levels of both alarm and monitoring products, enabling organic linkage between alarms and monitoring. It effectively solves the problem of video linkage mechanisms, organically unifying remote alarm and remote video services, and strengthening the effectiveness and continuity of security measures.
The EAVS alarm unit is composed of several major components, including a 64-bit embedded microprocessor control chip, a wireless communication module, and a 4G+TCP/IP communication module. The alarm host uses the ARM Linux operating system, based on which the embedded database SQLite has been ported, and intelligent telephone alarm software has been developed, featuring active voice alarm, remote arming/disarming, and remote alarm telephone setting functions. Data transmission between the alarm host and each wireless sensor network node is wireless. The system employs wireless sensor network technology, assembling home security sensors into a star-topology wireless sensor network. When a smoke alarm or infrared alarm signal is detected, it can proactively call the homeowner, allowing them to be aware of potential security risks immediately. Users can also remotely set new alarm phone numbers, arm and disarm the system remotely, achieving simple control of the alarm control panel. Adding control functions to the system enables remote telephone control of home appliances, significantly promoting the networking, digitalization, and intelligentization of the home. Simultaneously, the alarm unit can also include 8 wired zones and 64 bus zones. The bus zones are determined by the DIP switches of each detector’s single-zone module, allowing the CPU to identify the zone based on the transmitted data. The detector transmits alarm information to the control panel, which automatically determines the source of the alarm signal and responds according to the pre-set automatic response program. It also provides users with comprehensive on-site information, including video images and audio signals, providing necessary decision-making basis for accurately assessing the reliability and severity of abnormal events and prompting users to take appropriate preventative measures.
EAVS’s video unit integrates video recording and video service functions, employing the higher-level H.265 compression standard, allowing users to achieve lower compression bitrates while maintaining the same image quality. The system uses a Linux operating system; however, the increased complexity of the compression algorithm necessitates enhanced processing power from the video encoding chip. It integrates video acquisition, compression, storage, PTZ camera control, and remote transmission, ensuring system stability and reliability. Equipped with multiple network interfaces and using the TCP/IP protocol, it enables remote transmission over LANs and WANs, providing automatic early warning, alarm, and recording functions. By fully integrating alarm and video recording technologies, it offers greater practicality for customers.
The EAVS network digital alarm video server effectively combines alarm and video units, ensuring seamless communication between alarms and video. It enables automatic early warning, alarm, and recording functions over LANs and WANs, making it one of the most integrated security products currently available.
