Recording 40 high-resolution channels

Issue 6 2025 Surveillance, Products & Solutions

With the new MK4 revision of the DMS 2400, Dallmeier introduces a more powerful version of its proven video appliance. The MK4 variant enables the recording of up to 40 high-resolution video streams, offering significantly increased capacity.

The DMS 2400 (MK4) appliance combines the software SeMSy Recording Server with compact server hardware. The appliance is suited for video security systems in stores, petrol stations or private properties that require the highest recording quality within a small footprint.

Thanks to matched components, the system achieves a high storage speed, enabling the recording of up to 40 high-resolution video streams at a frame rate of 30 frames per second. Two lockable 3,5-inch hard disk bays at the rear provide a storage capacity of up to 48 TB. The compartmentalised Linux operating system and the SeMSy Recording Server application are installed on a separate flash module.

Flexible platform and intelligent functions

The pre-installed SeMSy Recording Server software is designed as an open platform. In combination with the appropriate licences, third-party cameras can be recorded with motion detection and configured via the ONVIF protocol. Additionally, the appliance is equipped with a database for analysing the results of Dallmeier cameras and Panomera systems using EdgeAnalytics technology. The received events, objects and classes are stored with the relevant metadata almost in real time and can be specifically analysed using the SmartFinder function in SeMSy Compact.

Efficient Panomera recording

A cost advantage becomes apparent when recording Panomera cameras. “Only one licenced recording channel is required for the first sensor of a Panomera multifocal sensor system. All additional sensors only require free channels that do not need to be licensed. This reduces licencing costs and enables particularly economical system planning,” explains Christian Linthaler, chief sales officer at Dallmeier.

Like all Dallmeier recorders, the DMS 2400 (MK4) supports mobile access via the SeMSy Mobile Client. This solution allows security personnel to access live images and recordings from various locations. AI-based object classification pre-selects relevant events and presents them clearly. Operation is intuitive via sliders or the innovative “trackwheel” with haptic feedback. The SeMSy Mobile Client is available for both smartphones and tablets.
