FAQs

What is the maximum resolution supported by this DVR?

The Kenable Eagle XVR/DVR supports up to 5MP resolution for connected cameras.

Can I use both Face Recognition and SMD Plus simultaneously?

No, Real-Time Face Recognition is mutually exclusive with SMD Plus and Perimeter Protection. You must choose which AI feature to enable for your operational needs.

What types of cameras can I connect to this recorder?

This Penta-Brid recorder supports HDCVI, AHD, TVI, CVBS (analog), and IP cameras. It auto-detects the signal type.

How does AI Coding benefit me?

AI Coding reduces bit rate and storage requirements by up to 50% compared to H.265, while preserving key human and vehicle details, leading to more efficient storage management.

How do I perform a factory reset?

A factory reset option is typically available within the device's system settings menu via the local interface or web browser. Please note that this will erase all custom configurations.

What is the purpose of Perimeter Protection?

Perimeter Protection helps to drastically reduce false alarms by filtering out common nuisance triggers like animals, leaves, or light changes, improving the accuracy of intrusion detection.

Does this recorder have remote access capabilities?

Yes, typically devices like this offer remote access via a mobile app or web browser, provided they are connected to a network with internet access.

Troubleshooting

No video feed from cameras

Verify camera power supply and BNC/network cable connections. Check if the camera's signal type is correctly auto-detected or manually set. Ensure camera resolution is supported.

Excessive false alarms

Review and adjust sensitivity settings for motion detection. Ensure Perimeter Protection or SMD Plus is enabled and correctly configured. If using Face Recognition, ensure it's not conflicting with other AI features. Clean camera lenses.

Face Recognition not identifying faces accurately

Ensure cameras are positioned correctly with adequate lighting. Verify that the target faces are within the database and meet the required resolution and clarity. Note that Face Recognition conflicts with SMD Plus and Perimeter Protection; ensure only one is active.

Poor recording quality or stuttering playback

Check the hard drive status and ensure it's properly installed and formatted. Verify that the recording bitrate is set appropriately for the camera resolution and frame rate. Ensure network bandwidth is sufficient if accessing remotely.

Device is unresponsive

Perform a power cycle by disconnecting the power for 30 seconds and reconnecting. Check the power adapter. If the issue persists, consider a factory reset (note: this will erase all configurations).

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly reduces false alarms with AI-powered SMD Plus and Perimeter Protection.
  • Offers advanced features like real-time face recognition and facial attribute analysis.
  • Supports a wide range of camera types (HDCVI, AHD, TVI, CVBS, IP) for maximum flexibility.
  • Optimizes storage and bandwidth usage with AI Coding and H.265+ compression.
  • Auto-detects camera signal types, simplifying the installation process.
  • High 5MP resolution for detailed imagery.

Cons

  • Real-Time Face Recognition conflicts with SMD Plus and Perimeter Protection.
  • Requires careful configuration to select the most beneficial AI features.
  • AI features require dedicated processing, potentially impacting performance on very high channel counts simultaneously.
  • No mention of cloud storage integration in provided details.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The XVR/DVR supports auto-detection for HDCVI, AHD, TVI, CVBS, and IP camera signals, simplifying the initial connection process. Connect your cameras to the appropriate inputs and power them on. The device will automatically recognize the signal type. Access the device via its web interface or local monitor to configure recording schedules, motion detection zones, and AI features.

Compatibility: This recorder is compatible with HDCVI, AHD, TVI, CVBS, and IP cameras. Ensure that the resolution of connected cameras does not exceed the recorder's 5MP capability for optimal performance. For AI features like Face Recognition and SMD Plus, ensure cameras are positioned to capture clear views of faces or target intrusions.

Care: Keep the device in a well-ventilated area to prevent overheating. Regularly clean the ventilation grills with a soft brush or compressed air. For the external power adapter, ensure it is not damaged and is used in a dry environment. Software updates for firmware should be periodically checked and applied to ensure optimal performance and security.
