1. A method for activating communication between at least one wireless input capture device ICD(s) and a corresponding digital input recorder (DIR) or another ICD forming a base system, comprising the steps of: providing the base system; at least one user accessing the DIR via a user interface either directly or remotely and making a single click-select activation, which automatically activates predetermined actions within the system, including the DIR searching for signal from the ICD(s) and establishing communication with them; activating direct cross-communication between the ICD(s) that provides for data exchange including input data relating to the environment under surveillance and direct communication between any of the ICD(s) and the DIR that includes data exchange including input data relating to the environment under surveillance, settings, and inputs captured by the ICD(s); without requiring further interaction with the system by the user following the single click-select activation, thereby providing a secure surveillance system for a target environment.
