From the Manufacturer

SENTINEL11 Overview

Protect your hard-earned possessions, assets, and family; know who has been on your property; rid yourself of uneasiness when you travel on vacation or business. The SENTINEL11 offers some of the most advanced surveillance options available but in a hassle-free, do-it-yourself approach so you can have a fully functioning security system for your home or business in less time and for less money. The SENTINEL11's online viewing feature allows you to conveniently access your DVR's live or recorded video footage on any computer in the world with Internet Explorer. Checking in on your property is easy and means you will never miss a moment. This DVR is loaded with features that will help keep your property safe and secure. Record over 3 years worth of continuous video on the built-in 500GB hard drive. The SENTINEL11 is a clutter-free complete video security station with an amazingly slim 15" LCD monitor and feature loaded DVR.

Top 5 Reasons to Buy

Fast & Hassle-Free Setup

The SENTINEL11 is one of Defender's complete do-it-yourself systems that are incredibly easy to set up and use with no need to hire a professional installer. Auto-start recording ensures that your system will automatically begin recording as soon as you plug it in to a power outlet. You can easily monitor entryways, offices, shops, warehouses, children's rooms, garages, or any other area in your business or home.

Smartphone Compatible

Access live or recorded video footage directly from your Smartphone mobile device. Now you will always be informed.

View Video Online with No Service Fees

Regardless of where you are in the world, you can view your DVR's live or recorded video footage on any internet accessible computer with Internet Explorer®. See what is happening on your property and check in on your employees or family members. (Requires a router, Windows operating system, Internet Explorer browser, and broadband Internet connection for online viewing).

Record Over 3 Years Worth of Video Footage

We use the only hard drive ever designed specifically for DVR security systems. The SENTINEL11's 500GB hard drive can hold over 3 years of continuous video. Optimized for 24/7 surveillance, the hard drive provides reliability and quality. Your DVR will alert you when your memory space is full so that you can overwrite your old video, stop the unit from recording, or use the built-in USB port to back up and transfer your video footage.

Cutting Edge H.264 Compression

The SENTINEL11 utilizes H.264 compression—the latest and most advanced compression level available for a DVR system. You will see an amazing picture but save almost 50% on storage space! H.264 maximizes your hard drive.

More Features

4 Professional Grade Hi-Res Night Vision Cameras

The hi-res indoor/outdoor color cameras provide you with clear, crisp, and enhanced video at 420 TV lines of resolution. They allow you to better distinguish facial features, which can help in the positive identification of individuals. Knowing what is going on outside of your business or home is important to you. Place the cameras in your store or outside your home to increase your security perimeter. Each camera is built with professional grade aluminum housing and a sunshade to help prevent glare and is built from durable aluminum and designed to function in both indoor and outdoor situations without deterioration or rusting.

Stylishly Integrated 15" LCD for All-In-One Surveillance

The SENTINEL11's DVR is built into the sleek 15" LCD profile. This all-in-one security system is space saving as well as stylish due to its compact design. The SENTINEL11 instantly transforms your viewing area into a vibrant, clutter-free security base station.

USB/DVD/CD Backup

A built-in USB port gives you the option of backing up and transferring your video footage with a USB flash drive, external USB hard drive, or an external DVD/CD writer (peripherals not included). Your video footage then becomes portable for easy viewing and archiving on any PC.

Advanced Motion Activated Recording

You have the option to record video only when motion is detected. Finding important video footage using the playback feature is easy, and will also save you time and conserve hard drive space. You can even set individual cameras to detect motion while the others continuously record. Advanced motion detection settings ensure that false alarms are not triggered—the easy motion detection "mask" allows you to block out areas with constant movement, such as roads or blowing trees so that only suspicious activity is recorded.

View in the Dark with Automatic Night Vision

The cameras come equipped with night vision, allowing you to see any monitored area (up to 15ft away) in total darkness. Each camera has 11 infrared LEDs that activate automatically when it becomes dark and deactivate during the day to save energy. You will always be able to see what is happening in your yard or at your business after-hours.

Covert Monitoring Keeps Camera Locations Discreet

Covert mode hides your field so that you have the option of keeping your camera locations a secret. The DVR will record video footage from the camera, but the monitor will display a blue screen, giving others the impression that no cameras are connected.

Adjustable Pre-Event Recording Time

Never miss the events leading up to an incident. When the system is in Motion Activated Recording mode, you can set the DVR to store a small amount of video footage before movement ever actually happens.

Two Way Internet Communication

This system comes equipped with audio support and allows two way audio communication between the DVR and a remote PC when connected via the Internet (microphones for the DVR and remote PC are required).

24/7 Scheduled Recording to Meet Your Needs

You can fully customize a weekly recording schedule. You can choose which days of the week and hours of the day you want to continuously record, motion record, or not record at all. Each camera can be scheduled with different settings (up to 30 frames per second per camera).

Find Your Video Footage Easily with Time, Date, and Event Search

Simply choose the desired date and time range, and the requested video clips will appear. Clips are also labeled by event, which makes it easy to find footage that was captured by motion detection.

We'll Get You Online with Our 24/7 Lifetime Live Customer Support

Assistance is available for you whenever you need it. Simply visit www.defender-usa.com for illustrated networking guides, simple tips on how to protect your property, and instructional videos on topics such as camera placement. Our customer support team can be reached by phone 24/7, or by e-mail and live web chat services so that you will always have access to an expert.

Easy Navigation with the Included Mouse and Remote

Controlling the DVR is easy with the included remote or USB mouse. Simply point and click to change your DVR's settings or view individual cameras. Mouse navigation and the simplified icon based menu make the DVR extremely easy to use.

Customize Your Camera Display

Display all four cameras in Quad Screen mode (four camera split screen), or show just an individual camera in Full Screen. Zoom Mode allows you to enlarge a portion of the camera's view to get a closer look, and Sequence Mode cycles through all camera views at preset interval times.

Hear What Your Cameras Hear with Audio Support

This system includes 1-channel audio support to help you effectively watch over your belongings or family with more than just video. Connect a microphone to this DVR to record and play back audio (microphone not included. Included cameras do not support audio).

Endless Location Options with 60ft of Wiring per Camera

The included 60ft camera wiring gives you flexibility in the installation of your cameras and allows you to increase each camera's range. If you need additional 60ft cable lengths, you can purchase the DF10W. The single wire also conveniently carries both the power and video signals, so you are only running one wire per camera (maximum 180ft cable length per camera is recommended).

Nationwide Installation Service

Don't have time to install your system? Defender can have your systems installed for you in any zip code across the continental United States, plus key population centers in Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico. Our trusted network of security installers will not only install your system but also take the time to train you on its features and functions so you can get the most out of your Defender security system.

I bought 2 of this system because of the 5 star reviews but apparently I didn't get as lucky as the other guys who bought this troublesome system. Comes withuseless, cheap screws...almost every single one broke half way in even when the holes were pre-drilled. I had to leave some of them in to not damage the plastic mounting base. Hopefully the camera won't fall off. Image quality is decent but not impressive. after 1 hour of rain one of the "outdoor" cameras burned out and was filled with water on the inside. 24/7 customer support is non-existent...no one ever picks up the phone. I would not buy this again.

I have a camera that is full of water and called customer support. After being on hold for 15 minutes I had to leave a message. The next day I received a call back and was told THAT THESE CAMERAS ARE NOT FOR OUTDOOR USE. She told me to read there web page something about IP rating!!! Like I know what that is?!?! Might be great for inside but worthless outside!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Spent $800.00+ and can through it in the trash!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bought this on 12/05/2009 for my house; it's fun and very easy to install.

I put one facing my drive way and one at front door, two at my backyard.
Sitting in my family room watching monitor, I can see if my cab or friends are arrived. I can also see what my dogs were doing when I was on vacation.

After 5 months of excellent performance, one of the camera died, but I think it's acceptable.

This system has become one of the must have in my life.

Update on 07/22/2010:
I woke up this morning and found this system died completely! Really good system, but only last 8 month.
