| Example 1: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Basic stand-alone operation |
|
|
|
|
|
| This is the operation of the DVRi in its most basic form. The unit is connected to a video feed from a diver / rov - recording is controlled via the DVRis own control software. The video data is stored to the removable caddie drive in the front of the unit. When the drive is full or when review is required, the drive is ejected and carried to the offline PC - where it is docked into a custom or USB connected recepticle. |
|
| Typical Usage: - small jobs, drill support etc |
|
|
|
- first time users |
|
|
|
|
|
- VHS procedures can still apply to the movement of caddies |

| Example 2: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Basic controlled operation |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| This setup is very comon with simple structural inspection jobs. The DVRi is controlled by an inspection management tool (Coabis / Scope / Netlink etc) - data storage is as per example 1- direct to caddie disks, which are moved around as per VHS tapes. |

|
| Network storage example |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| After a short period of time, it becomes apparent to the novice user that moving caddie disks between online and offline (or ROV shack and office) becomes labourious and frustrating that the video cant be accessed quickly by inspection co-ordinators and QA staff. The soluiton is to store the video centrally on the network - that way the video can be reviewed instantly. Typically a server or NAS (network attached storage) unit is used to store the video data on. |

| Advanced Network storage example |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Once a network is in place - there are no limits to how far the systems can be expanded. Add more storage, add more recorders, add more reviewers...... |
