The included accessories
UMLTIMAX makes a family of new-generation CCTV recorders based on H.264 compression.
The advantages of the devices are described in the article "ULTIMAX - the market leader in digital CCTV recording"
ULTIMAX-508 is a high-quality network DVR, capable of recording video with 4CIF (704 x 576) resolution at 12 FPS (each channel), or with 2CIF (704 x 288) at 25 fps. It can be an ideal solution for medium (8 channels) CCTV systems with typical requirements, e.g. in schools. The device supports all advanced functions implemented in the series, first of all - local recording and network transmission based on H.264 algorithms, providing good video quality at substantially lower bitrates than the previous standards, saving available disk capacity and bandwidth of the network. The DVR can also record 8 audio channels.
ULTIMAX DVRs are managed in IP networks by ULTIMAX Client software. It allows to manage (configuration and control of all functions):
ULTIMAX DVRs, ULTINET video servers, and ULTICAM cameras. More on the features of the software can be found in the article:


This site also contains files that can be downloaded: the program, user manual (full version), hard drive capacity/number calculator.

We also offer more advanced model:
ULTIMAX-708 M77080
Main features of ULTIMAX-508
  • H.264 compression.
  • Independent operation system: ROTS (Real Time Operating System).
  • Recording of images from 16 channels with 4CIF resolution (704 x 576) at 12 FPS or 2CIF (or lower) at 25 FPS.
Notice! Fully independent (for each channel/camera) adjustment of recording parameters (resolution, number of frames per second, bitrate, pre- and post-alarm periods) enables the user to configure the system according to individual needs.
  • Online viewing of images from every camera with original quality
    • On the local monitor,
    • On a remote computer - with ULTIMAX client program.
  • Audio recording of up to 8 audio channels (OggVorbis compression, 16 Kbps) and network transmission of one selectable channel.
  • Possibility of creating up to 15 user accounts with individual access rights.
  • Multi-level, individually configurable structure of passwords and access rights to various functions.
  • Possibility of creating 4 time intervals during one day for different kinds of recording:
    • continuous,
    • triggered by motion detection,
    • triggered by alarm,
    • motion and alarm,
    • motion or alarm.
  • Fully independent (for each channel/camera) adjustment of recording parameters (resolution, number of frames per second, bitrate, pre- and post-alarm periods).
  • Independent choice of recorded channels for different alarm inputs.
  • Possibility of using many PTZ protocols, programming presets and switching sequences, as well as patrol routes (cruises).
  • Possibility of defining parameters of RS-232 port: symbol rate, data, stop, and parity bits, flow control. Different modes of work: "Console", "PPP" or "Transparent Channel".
  • Possibility of active or passive cooperation with ATM/cash machine. The DVR can actively obtain or passively receive the credit card number from the machine linked through the network or serial port. The number can be mixed with live video, recorded and played back.
  • Network software allows to manage several DVRs and other ULTIMAX and ULITCAM devices (video servers and IP cameras). Easy operation thanks to user-friendly graphic interface, including mouse pointer.
  • Cooperation with external recorders/devices (CD/DVR, hard disc, USB flash drives) connected via USB port - easy backup, review and playback of recordings.
  • Support of largest hard discs (SATA) - up to 2 TB each. There can be installed up to 8 such disks (total capacity of 16 TB)!.
  • Simple, intuitive mouse-navigated menu (in English or Polish).
  • Easy backup of archives
    • to external memory devices connected via USB (HDD, DVD, USB flash),
    • to client computer in the network (with ULTIMAX Remote Client Software.
  • Precise motion detection. Possibility of defining channels that are to be recorded after triggering alarm in a camera path - unique function that eliminates waste of disc space typical for the majority of DVRs which trigger recording of all channels.
  • Possibility of setting for each camera up to 4 privacy areas/masks.
  • Possibility of setting day schedule for alarms caused by:
    • loss of video signal,
    • motion detection in a defined area.
  • Possibility of sound or OSD warnings about alarm situations.
  • "Alarm fortify" function - remote alarm. ULTIMAX client software will create in the network a communication tunnel with the front DVR. After an alarm has been triggered (sensor alarm, video motion detection etc.), the DVR will send alarm information to remote client software. The software will display the information in client log and make warning sound.
  • "Voice talk" function - bidirectional voice connection between remote computer and DVR. ULTIMAX client software can create in the network a voice communication channel - the voice from client post is transmitted to the DVR which can play it through its audio output. In the opposite direction - the DVR sends sound from its audio line output to the client computer which can play it through the sound card and speakers.
  • Possibility of remote PTZ control provided by ULTIMAX Remote Client Software.
  • Possibility of embedding maps (BMP files with deployment of cameras) which enable the operator of a bigger monitoring system to quickly localize the spots and manage the surveillance network.
  • Firmware update via: FTP, RS-232, USB, Remote Client.

Additional information
Efficient operation in LAN
In the ULTIMAX - the market leader in digital CCTV recording article there are tables comparing different models of ULTIMAX family.
HDD capacity calculation: assessment of the total volume for recording video data requires adoption of certain record parameters and video storage time. The formula below gives the amount of disc space (in MB) for saving one hour recording from one channel:

qi= (di*3600)/(8*1024)

where di means bitrate in Kbps.

For ULTIMAX DVRs there can be selected bitrates from 32 Kbps to 8000 Kbps.
