store system w 4-8 cameras ?
Have a friend looking to buy a convenience store and would like info/recommendations on a pc-based system that would have 4/6/8 ? cameras recording to the PC - in case of pettty theft/ hold up etc .
Any online pointers to " the benefits of x cameras over the alternatives". for instance, with a DVR system, would it be best to go with 2- 4 input cards vs 1 8 input card ? How many fps ? how many cameras per aisle ? overwrite the aisles every ... 5 minutes , 30 minutes ? How much disk space per minutes etc etc.? I see wireless systems as an option, but wouldn't they be subject to jamming by a prospective robber etc ?
He asked me my opinion since I know computers , but other than the yellow pages/ google etc I don't know how to research this. Since he brought it up I realized that I didn't know anything about this and looking to learn. A lot of what I read here is over my head and specific ( Napco firmware , surguard mrl2 etc). Thanks for pointers/ info as to what he should consider when buying a system.
