A digital video recorder (DVR) is located in the site office to capture images locally.
The cost for this is just £6-700 per week on a lease rental with a minimum term of 12 months.

Abloy Launches Virtually Silent Door Operators
Following extensive research and development, Abloy Security has launched its new DA300 automatic swing door operator, specially designed to provide virtually silent operation.
Also included in this fixed cost is installation, training and ongoing maintenance as well as remote central monitoring.
Cameras are triggered by built-in PIRs and automatically pan, tilt and zoom in to where movements are detected.
High quality images are recorded on local DVR as well as being transmitted, via ADSL connections, to a central monitoring location where operators can take control of the cameras to follow the action whilst alerting the local police or guarding company to attend the scene and secure the site.
This will reduce the number of false alarms as each incident is monitored and confirmed prior to alerting the police.
Operators can take full control of on-site cameras to follow the action and can give verbal warnings over the system to warn off intruders.
Full incident recordings are also made in the control centre to ensure that all evidence is captured to aid prosecutions and detailed reports of every incident are subsequently sent to the client.
The cameras are powered by a combination of wind and solar power to provide continuous, no cost operation.
This also enables cameras to be quickly and easily positioned anywhere on site without requiring cabling or specialist installation expertise.
According to Jon Bateson of Maxsys Electronics: "This new CCTV solution eliminates the cost of ownership and delivers enhanced security for a fraction of the cost of using manned guarding services".
"It provides a visible deterrent to intruders and will play a major role in reducing the incidence of shrinkage at construction sites across the UK." This solution delivers significant advantages over traditional "wired" alarm systems and low cost, single camera installations.
It offers the same levels of performance as fixed wire installations and can be rapidly deployed to protect different areas without requiring expensive ducting to be laid.
It also enables construction companies to view all their sites from central location reducing the need for costly site visits to check on progress.
