System overview
This discreet, aesthetic camera mounts flush in a ceiling or wall.
Its easily-painted cover plate blends in with almost all
surroundings. The 12MP sensor operating at 30 fps provides full
panoramic surveillance with complete area coverage, fine details
and high speeds. The camera offers full situational awareness
and simultaneous E-PTZ views in high resolution.
The 360° version of the camera, when mounted centrally on a
ceiling, gives complete wall‑to‑wall coverage. The 180° version
has a higher effective resolution and is ideal for wall mounting
or for ceiling mounting in corridors.
Application variants
The camera has a choice of application variants that set up the
camera for optimum performance in a specific environment.
Select the application variant best suited to your installation.
The application variant must be selected before any other
changes are made, as the camera reboots automatically and
resets the factory defaults when the application variant is
changed.
This camera has the following application variants:
– Client-side dewarping
– Edge dewarping
Using the camera
To access the features of the camera, use a web browser. The
browser provides live viewing of the camera streams in the
interface window, and also allows you to access and change the
extensive list of settings and parameters for camera
configuration. Refer to the software manual for more
information on the browser interface.
