Features
Overview: The Logitech Alert 750n Indoor Master System is an
indoor video security system with home network
compatibility. The system includes the Alert 700n indoor camera, a separate
power supply, a network adapter, plus cables and mounting accessories. The system
also includes powerful software that allows you to monitor the system live on your
computer or from anywhere on a free, secure website. You can also record, store, and play
back video on your PC or the included 2 GB microSD card. Up to six indoor or outdoor
cameras can be used in this master system.
Camera: The Logitech Alert 700n indoor camera can provide
HD-quality video security (960 x 720 @ 15 fps). The 700n's High Power Night
Vision, powered by 2 Osram infrared illuminators, lets you "see" up to 50 feet in complete darkness.
During the day, the built-in IR cut filter enables the camera to function better
in the daylight. The camera's 130° wide
angle lens delivers much more viewing area than most cameras. The built-in microphone lets you monitor and record audio with the video
(see note below). The camera can be placed on a desktop with the included stand,
on a wall or ceiling with the included adjustable
wall/ceiling mount, or on a window (pointed in or out) with a suction cup window mount.
Note: Be sure to comply with the laws in your state or locality
regarding recording audio along with the video.
Easy Setup: The Logitech Alert 750n Indoor Master System can be
installed using a simple 3-step procedure: install the supplied Logitech Alert
Commander software, connect the Network Adapter to your home network, and plug
in your camera. Because the system uses HomePlug networking, there's no need to
install new wiring. HomePlug networking uses your existing electrical wiring and
outlets to connect your cameras to your network and transmit video securely. You
can easily expand the system with up to six cameras, including the
Alert 700e outdoor
camera and additional
Alert 700n indoor cameras.
Logitech Alert Commander: Included with the system is the powerful
Logitech Alert Commander software. The software gives you the option of
monitoring the system on your PC in Live Mode, or by recording video for later
viewing, either on your computer's hard drive or on the camera's built-in
microSD card. The Alert Commander software lets you configure and control the
system, display between one and six video windows, and select from four viewing
modes.
Free Remote Monitoring: The Logitech Alert Commander software includes
programs that allow you to see live video from your cameras from an
internet-connected computer (Web Commander), or through a free app for your
iPhone, Android, or Blackberry mobile device (Mobile Commander).
Premium Service Upgrade: The Web and Mobile Commander
Premium Service is a subscription-based upgrade that allows you to manage your
Logitech Alert system remotely over the Internet or from your smartphone. For
$79.95 per year, you can search and play recorded video that is stored on your
camera's DVR. This allows you to quickly review the event that triggered an
alert, or simply see what's been going on all day. You can also change motion
zones, turn motion alerts on/off, add recipients to email alerts, adjust the
sensitivity of the audio, and pan or zoom your cameras for a closer look. If you
have multiple sites, they can all be controlled remotely from a single
subscription.
microSD Card: When motion is detected, the camera records video
and audio to a microSD card, even when
your PC is turned off. The supplied 2 GB card gives you enough space for up to a
week's worth of recording for a typical home location. Larger capacity cards, up to 32 GB, can record up to
several months worth of video and audio. When you turn on your computer and
connect to the network, the recorded video is backed up to your hard drive.
Dropbox: You can upload and back up your security videos to
Dropbox, an automatic cloud-based service. Dropbox is password protected, so
your videos are stored securely. Storage plans are available starting at up to 2
GBs free to up to 100 GB for a few dollars a month. Dropbox also allows you to
store Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files as well. Opening a Dropbox account is
done through the supplied Logitech Alert Commander software.
Motion Detection Zones: The Alert Commander software allows you to set
up motion detection zones on the viewable video, typically around windows and
doors. When movement is detected in any of the detection zones, the camera will
automatically record the action. Up to 16 motion detection zones can be
specified for a single view.
Alerts: You can set up alerts that will automatically notify you
whenever a camera detects motion. Notifications can be sent to an email address
or to your mobile phone.
Digital Pan-Tilt-Zoom: As you monitor the system, you can use keyboard
commands to zoom in or out, pan left or right, or tilt up or down (within the
full wide angle shot) to get better
detail.
