Question

Which Cameras or Encoders can perform Dual Recording?

Answer

By design, the Dual-Recording feature is specific only in Bosch Cameras.

3rd party cameras are integrated into Bosch Systems like BVMS-VRM via our Video Streaming Gateway (VSG)

Cameras/Encoders that are capable for dual recording: (iSCSI + SD Card or iSCSI + iSCSI)

Note: Dual recording can be achieved with or without BVMS-VRM

  • CPP-ENC XFM series (VIPX1600 XFM 4) starting with FW 4.21,

  • CPP 3 starting with FW 4.54

  • CPP 4 starting with FW 5.0

  • CPP 6 devices with any FW version

  • CPP 7 devices with any FW version

  • CPP 7.3 devices with any FW version

  • CPP 13 devices with any FW version

  • CPP 14 devices with any FW version

You can verify this in Configuration Manger, Recorder 1 = Primary & Recorder 2 = Secondary
