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
Cameras/Encoders that are not capable for dual recording:
VIP platform devices. E.g. VIP-X1, VIP-X2, VJ-800x, VJ-1000 etc. (i.e. all devices below FW 4.10)
VIPX platform devices. The latest FW version is 4.15.0002
CPP 5 platform devices (VIPX16 XFE and VJM 4000). The latest FW version is 6.31.0019
The VSG is also not capable of offering dual recording.
But the same camera can be added to multiple VSG's.
