What does the CCT do?
Calculate Time Differences:Calculates the exact time you need in order to locate the video footage for your case, when the DVR date and time are incorrect. Enter your DVR information, including: the location, time currently on the DVR as you're looking at it, the date and time of your occurrence, and the actual time you're viewing the DVR. Once you click "calculate," you will immediately be informed of the exact date and time that you need to turn the DVR to in order to find the video footage at your specific occurrence time. The calculator will give you the difference in days, and hours, as well as the exact "Go to Date" and Go to Time."
Record your DVR's/Cameras: Enter the location of the DVRs/cameras you are viewing and CREATE a DATABASE of your DVRs. Every time you use the calculator and enter a location, you are automatically creating a database of your DVRs/cameras. Enter DVR details for future reference. DVR details include: location name, phone number, contact person's name and phone number, make and model of DVR, length of time recorded, if there are exterior or interior cameras, and whether cameras were operable. Also,you can type in any additional notes in the notes box.
View database as a list: Every DVR you enter is kept in a list in date order. This list can be searched using any keywords, including: date, business name, street name, etc. The list can also be sorted by distance from a location. Simply enter an address and hit sort. The list will then give you any DVR you have previously entered within 1/2 mile of that location.
View database on a map: Every DVR you enter will be GPS plotted on a map. The map will use your current location to give you all DVRs near your location or enter an address and see all DVRs around that address. Click on any of the markings on the map to view full DVR details that you have entered.
Export database: Export an excel report directly to your email account on file. The report will contain all DVR details entered as well as the calculations that you performed. Great way to strengthen your case with detailed notes on who, what, where, and when in addition to the DVR details that you were viewing.
