Security camera systems are undeniably important to help protect your business from theft and vandalism, as well as to provide video to police if anything occurs at your business. However, a quality PC-Based DVR Security Camera system can be used for many more purposes when configured properly. Security cameras are generating content 24 hours a day, which can easily be used to help your business stand apart from the rest of your competitors. Benefits are not limited to specific businesses, but can be adapted to virtually any business, to help customers remember you, talk about you, and refer others to you as well.
First, it is important to ensure that you have a camera system that can support easy remote viewing by your customers. We always recommend PC-Based DVR Card/Software packages for this application, because they offer the best remote viewing options, and can generally support hundreds of simultaneous logins. The system that we have used for most of our forward thinking business customers is the Alnet Systems PC-Based DVR Cards, which install into a standard Windows XP or Windows Vista PC, and allow for remote viewing from hundreds of simultaneous users. This system allows you to permit access to specific cameras only, so that you can specify certain cameras only to be viewable by customers. If you currently have a more limited VCR Based or Standalone DVR Security Camera system, you can easily remove the DVR or VCR and install a PC with a DVR Card. The cameras will plug directly into the DVR Card, instead of the standalone DVR or VCR, allowing for a simple upgrade to your existing camera system. The PC-Based DVR systems are easily upgradeable by installing additional cards into the PC, allowing you to keep your existing cameras for security, and adding additional cameras for content.
Once you know that your system is capable of broadcasting video to your customers, it is time to look at some of the hidden benefits of your business security camera system. The type of business is important to consider when you are looking at using your cameras to the benefit of your business. Think of something that can help make an impact to your customers with video content. For example, our shipping facility uses our camera systems to take snapshots and video of packages as they are being shipped. When our packages are shipped out, customers receive an email with a JPG image of their package as it is being checked before it is boxed. That way, customers can see their items, and it provides a great personal touch, as well as helps catch any errors before the customer even receives their package.
Other uses include auto repair facilities, with cameras showing the bays of their facility as well as the parking lot. These cameras can be embedded into a web page, so customers can simply view the cameras live by viewing their website. This allows customers to view their vehicle while it is in the parking lot, or in the shop being worked on by the technicians. The Auto Repair market in general has suffered in the past 20 years from trust issues with the public, stemming from some facilities that break the public trust. Customers can see the trustworthiness of your business, when they can view their car at any time; it lets them see that there is nothing to hide. Several auto shops that have installed these systems not only saw a greater amount of traffic to their websites, but also improved the return rate of their customers and saw a boost in customer referrals. Storage facilities have used cameras, to install into specific high-rate storage units, and provided customers with a login through their website. By being able to view their storage facility with an Infrared Night vision camera at any time through their website, their customers were more confident in the security of the facility.
Restaurants and Bars, especially in popular destination locations, have used publicly accessible video surveillance cameras on their website for years, to allow their customers to call their friends and family and see them on the web. These web cameras can easily be tied into a PC-Based DVR Surveillance camera system to provide features to countless customers and help increase traffic to the restaurant or bar by patrons.
Pet kennels are also a business that deals with the public trust. Clients have to trust the facility to provide adequate food, water and love to their pets while they are out of town or on vacation. By placing strategic cameras in the kennel areas, as well as in the areas around the building, and providing logins to their customers, these dog kennels can provide their customers with the ability to watch their dogs over the internet, from their PDA Phone, Windows Smartphone or Laptop from anywhere in the world. Now customers not only have a greater peace of mind about leaving their pet, but they trust the facility more, and are more likely to not only use the service again, but also refer additional clients.
Every day, millions of people leave their children with daycare facilities, despite the fact that nightmares about how children have been mistreated at some facilities still spatter across the news. This makes it very difficult for parents to choose the facility that they can trust with their children. It is easy to show parents that your daycare center can be trusted, and provide value-added service to the parents at the same time by installing a remote viewable CCTV security camera system. Not only will this show the parents that you are serious about the security of your facility, but you can also set up a user account for the parents, so that they can connect in and view their children over the internet using a web browser, or even with their PDA Phone or Windows Mobile Smartphone. This makes the choice of where to entrust their children an easy decision.
The above examples are in no way the only extended application of security cameras for improving your business model. They are just meant to show some of the limitless possibilities of a quality DVR surveillance camera system. Once cameras are in place, it is time to simply ask yourself, how you can use the content to improve upon your business model, improve customer trust and loyalty, and improve sales at your facility. It is time to stop looking at security camera systems as just security devices, and to start considering them as genuine business assets that can be used to improve your overall business model.

The Pulsar Digisight N550 is unlike any other NV rifle sight on the market, as it relies on digital technology and infra red illumination to enhance the image instead of traditional NV Gen 1 or Gen 2 image intensifier tubes.
The green image normally associated with NV devices is not present in digital units as the N550 does not use a green phosphor screen, the image instead appearing on a sharp black and white LCD screen. Green was commonly thought as the most effective colour for the human eye to view at night, so it would be interesting to find out how the N550 image compared.
Scott Country first saw the N550 in the "flesh" at the Tackle and Guns Trade show in Stoneleigh and we were lucky enough to be one of the first in the UK to put it through its paces..
N550 LIGHT-FREE TUNNEL TRIAL
We had heard great things about the N550, and we were excited to see if it lived up to our expectations and couldn't wait to try it out. UK Distributors Thomas Jacks had access to a custom built light free tunnel for the afternoon, so we put the N550 through its paces.
The dark tunnel consisted of a long blacked out tunnel with a range of targets to acquire at the far end of the range, this was ideal for testing a Night vision device.
To get a comparison we tried a Gen 1 + Riflescope to see how it performed, and using the Built In IR I could easily make out the rabbit shaped targets and it performed as expected.
Eagerly we mounted the N550 to the plastic dummy stock, and I raised the eye piece to my eye and what I saw was a revelation. The image was sharp and defined with a depth of clarity that far exceeded my expectations.
The best way to describe the image is that it is like a crisp clear CCTV camera image, but in black and white.
The N550's built in reticle can be cycled through various profiles, and I chose a traditional cross hair, and practised lining up for shots against the rabbit targets. With the built in IR turned on, the N550 could easily pick out targets in the light free tunnel, giving virtually daylight quality images.
N550 SET-UP
Setting up the N550 on a firearm couldn't be easier, with the adjustable dovetail fitting most rifles from 11mm dovetail to weaver. As part of the ongoing product development for the N550, Pulsar will shortly be releasing their own reticle design software, which is currently in its BETA stages.
This will allow the user at home, to create their own bespoke reticles for their requirements. You can then have a reticle for a 25yard range onboard an air rifle, or a mildot reticle for 200m lamping foxes at night. We at Scott Country have been testing the new Pulsar software and are offering a free of charge reticle design service when you buy a Digisight from us.
Zeroing is simplified using Pulsar's one shot zero system which allows you to adjust the reticle position using a single live shot. I found this very easy to use, and although I needed two or three shots to convince myself it was zeroed correctly, it's certainly a way of saving ammo.
Most people find gauging distance at night is particularly difficult and this poses a problem when zeroing conventional NV riflescopes.
I have found this a problem in the past using a Gen 1 device at night, but with the Pulsar N550 the one shot system makes this easier, although with the N550 being resistant to bright light exposure, you can use it in the daylight also. This is great news for zeroing during the day before you go out lamping at night.
THE N550 IN THE FIELD
Taking the N550 out in the field for the first time was an exciting prospect but there was little in the way of quarry about, primarily due to the awful weather.
It was a very dark and gloomy night with almost 100% cloud cover so no hope of starlight to assist the unit, I wondered how it would fare. As there wasn't a rabbit to be seen I set up a target at 100m and turned on the optional IR flashlight (or so I thought) and looked through the eye piece.
I could easily see every detail and blades of grass and twigs were clearly visible.
I reached to turn off the optional IR Flashlight to see how the built in IR compared, to find that in fact it was turned off!!!
The unit was performing this well already without the IR flashlight!!
With the optional IR flashlight on I actually found it overpowering at air rifle ranges, the image was so bright I had to look away for a moment. Looking at trees with nesting crows over 200meters away with the IR flashlight on this time, I was stunned at how clear the image was, and it blew a Gen One riflescope out of the water.
I have only ever used one Gen 2 riflescope before, and the N550 was easily comparable at less than half the cost of the Gen 2 unit. I spent a bit of time with the N550 handheld as a viewing monocular, and my Yukon MPR capturing footage at various distances and throughout an evening to see how it performed.
Watching pigeons flighting to roost was fantastic, and as I lay still and motionless a badger cub ran past me and I managed to catch sight of it as it went through a hedgerow.
I was most impressed as the clock got close to 11pm and I sat and watched some rooks nesting in trees, which were easily 250 metres away. I could see them clearly and watched them getting ready to bed down for the night, just as they were spooked by a rifle shot in the distance and flew off again.
N550 FUNCTIONS
The functions of the N550 were all very easy to operate at night and I could change the reticle, adjust the brightness, focus and zero with the touch of a button.
The SumLight function of the N550 is operated by push button and switches the N550 into enhanced sensitivity mode, this was particularly useful with the mist closing in.
Some time ago I tested a riflescope that could take pictures of what you were shooting at when you pulled the trigger, well the N550 goes one step further.
Being a digital night vision device the N550 can output a video stream to a mobile personal recording device such as the Yukon MPR, allowing you to record your night's hunting.
THE RESULT
The Pulsar N550 Digisight offers a true night vision riflescope with the capability of day light use which is ideal for those of us who dont have two rifles. No need to switch between day and night scopes, or having to add on a bulky NV add on scope device.
Offering clear and precise viewing out to 250meters with the IR flashlight, the N550 is ideal for vermin control on centrefire rifles, as well as for hunting small ground and roosting vermin with air rifles.
