Features
◆
1/2.8" Sony STARVIS CMOS sensor
2.16M Pixels (Total)
2.12M Pixels (Active)
◆
40x Optical Zoom
High reliability built-in 40x optical zoom lens with autofocus, auto-iris and auto-D&N functions.
◆
Full HD Resolution
1920x1080p 60/50/30/25fps
1280x720p 60/50/30/25fps
◆
DAY & NIGHT (ICR)
The ICR will automatically engage depending on the ambient light, allowing the camera to be
effective in day and night environments.
◆
DNR (Digital Noise Reduction, 2D+3D)
The DNR technology eliminates noise thus generating a distinct and clear image. This camera
DNR function utilizes both an adaptive 2D filter reducing noise in the brightness of the image
and an adaptive 3D filter reducing noise caused by movement.
◆
Privacy mask Function
The privacy zone function makes it possible to hide specific areas of the scene from view.
◆
On Screen Display
This camera supports an OSD function and the camera can be controlled by selecting text
displayed on the monitor screen.
◆
Intelligent motion detection
The camera can transmit an alert signal when it detects motion of an object on the screen.
This feature is useful when several screens have to be monitored simultaneously.
◆
Digital Image Stabilizer(DIS)
The Image Stabilizer function reduces image blurring caused by, for example, vibration,
which allows you to obtain images without much blurring.
◆
Output
Digital output: LVDS
Analog output: CVBS
◆
Protocol
This camera supports multiple control protocols: VISCA, PELCO-D, PELCO-P.

Cautions
◆
Power Supply
This camera must always be operated at 9V to 15V DC
◆
Handling of the unit
Be careful not to spill water or other liquids on the unit.
Be cautious not to get combustible or metallic material inside the camera body.
If used with foreign matter inside, the camera is liable to fail or to cause fire or electric shock.
◆
Operating and storage location
Avoid viewing a very bright objects (such as light fittings) during an extended period. Avoid
operating or storing the unit in the following locations:
-Extremely hot or cold places (operating temperature -10℃~ 50℃, however, we
recommend that the unit be used within a temperature range of 0℃~ 45℃)
-Damp or dusty places
-Places exposed to rain
-Places subject to strong vibration
-Close to generators of powerful electromagnetic radiation such as radio or TV
transmitters.
◆
Care of the unit
-Remove dust or dirt on the surface of the lens with a blower (commercially
available).
-Avoid the use of volatile solvents such as thinners, alcohol, benzene and
insecticides. They may damage the surface finish and/or impair the operation of the
camera.
