Many Remote Alert customers, are using our online security camera monitoring application, not just for security camera monitoring but for other important business monitoring applications. Remote Alert is ideal, for Retail sector, Tourism and Visitor attractions, Bars and Restaurants who would like to manage customer throughput, indoors, or outdoors, at their business premises. For example, one of our first Remote Alert client’s, a small Jewellery shop in Edinburgh, purchased our Remote Alert security camera monitoring package, to allow management to monitor an indoor IP wireless security camera system, remotely. The Edinburgh based Jewellery shop, currently has a number of indoor CCTV security cameras in operation, with a security video recorder, where they can view all CCTV camera footage from videos 24 hours a day. However, their traditional CCTV camera system doesn’t allow them to view the cameras, or video footage, remotely, from a computer device. (more…)

Many Remote Alert customers, when purchasing our security camera monitoring package, request if our range of wireless CCTV network cameras will allow them to view car registration plates, in car parks, driveways, online, from our Remote Alert security camera monitoring application.

To show a working example, from a Fife based Taxi car company, of an IP security wireless camera in operation, overlooking the parking area where his taxi cars are cleaned and fuelled, the saved pictures clearly show a good view of the car registration number.  The saved images have been taken by one of our wireless CCTV security cameras, Y-cam, which has a weatherproof housing for outdoor camera installations.  In darkness, at nightimes, the security camera images will produce a different result because infrared led’s normally reflect on vehicle registration plates.

When setting the Infrared IR LED lighting on the YCAM Knight or Black you select Camera in the admin section, folowed by Night Vision Setup, you will be presented with the following page like below:- 

In our experience we find that the above settings work well indoors when there are a lot of reflections from surfaces See Below:-

Switching “Black and white mode” off gives a good low light colour image see below:-

Our suggestion is to play around with the setting at different times of the day and night to find which  settings suits your required image using the built in Infrared LED Lighting on this wireless IP Camera, and on YCAM have launched the outdoor housing it makes the Knight and Black camera a lot more flexible. TIP Remember keep a note of settings and a snap shot to help to see best images.

If we were looking through glass we would switch off the “Infrared LED Control” and switch on “Moonlight mode” This would give a good low light image at night.

Outdoor Y-Cam making an appearance @IFSEC 2008

Members of the Camvista team attended the IFSEC 2008 Security Exhibition at the NEC in Birmingham, England, in early May 2008  The IFSEC Security exhibition is the `Global` security show for the security industry.  Thousands of visitors attend IFSEC, over 4 days, to meet up with over 800 security related products exhibitors who showcase new security products at the NEC based exhibition.  Exhibiting at IFSEC 2008 was Remote Alert’s security camera manufacture, Y-cam, who launched their new outdoor housing for their wireless security video cameras, the Y-cam white, Y-cam Knight and the Y-cam Black IP wireless security cameras.  Would appear, by seeing at first hand, the Y-cam Exhibit at IFSEC 2008, that the launch of their new outdoor housings for their Y-cam wireless video cameras has been a great success by the number of visitors to their impressive Y-cam Exhibit at the NEC in Birmingham.   Looks like the new outdoor housing units for the Y-cam wireless surveillance video cameras are going to be a real winner for the security camera sector.  Already we’ve received so many enquiries for Remote Alert to work with outdoor Y-cam wireless security cameras.   See below a picture of the Y-cam Exhibit stand at IFSEC 2008
