RE-BCC8FD
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
This camera is made to allow the resumption of license
plates of vehicles in slow or fast motion. It can operate in
any light condition thanks to the built-in infrared
illuminators. Thanks to a High-Light Suppression system is
not influenced by the headlights of the vehicle is that
dipped beam.
ASSEMBLY
The cameras are equipped with a mounting bracket for
wall built to allow the passage of cables within it. The
bracket is mounted generally at the output cables. The
fixing base has 4 holes for fixing to the wall with dowels.
The housing is waterproof and can be installed outdoors
without any protection.
The housing is air-conditioned and is equipped with a fan
which is activated at above 45 ° and a heater that is
activated at below -5 ° C.
POSITIONING
The positioning of the camera it is very important for a
good yield of the license plate reading.
The optimal recovery of the plate is carried out at a
maximum distance of 30 m. depending on the adjustment
of the lens.
The first thing to check is therefore that the distance as
the crow flies (not walkable on the ground) between the
camera and the point where you will find the means, does
not exceed this distance otherwise the infrared lighting
will not be effective.
The second thing to consider is to position the camera so
that the light of the headlights is not directly oriented
towards the camera, while maintaining an angle of
approximately 30 ° with respect to the illumination of the
headlights. The camera will then be placed in detected
position with respect to the road surface so as to avoid
that the dot headlights directly against the camera.
Satisfied 2 above, orienting the camera needs to be done
so that the plate remains as long as possible in the field of
vision of the camera.
SENSOR BRIGHTNESS 'BACK
The camera is equipped with a CDS sensor which allows to
detect the ambient light and is placed posteriorly to avoid
false detections due to the headlights of cars. The sensor
is placed in the rear of the housing grommet.
Absolutely necessary to avoid that light sources should be
to distort the detection of this sensor, because in this case
the camera will not operate properly at night. Above all
we must avoid the presence of illumination lights around
the camera that would prevent the LEDs.
CONNECTIONS
The connections on the output cable from the camera are
the following:
BNC video output - At the BNC bayonet socket
connecting the video cable which then leads to a AHD
DVR.
The RE-BCC8FD cameras
are cameras able to work
only with DVR AHD last
generation able to will
handle the full HD 1080P 1920x1080 (2 MP). The old
analog CVBS video is no longer supported.
pin DC12V - must connect a 12VDC power supply
stabilized by at least 2,000 mA, such as RE-AL5 model
(not included).
The requested plug is the standard 5.5 mm. Attention to
use STABILIZED feeders that provide 12V in any load
condition. The use of a different supply voltage from
12VDC can generate video disorders and in the worst
cases damage the camera. Attention to extension cables
power too long or small section, which could introduce an
excessive fall of species voltage at power IR illuminator.
RS485 port- This connection allows you to connect an
RS485 BUS which serves to remotely control the IR

illumination power and the OSD configuration menu. To
send the commands you can use a PTZ console or our
DVR that has RS485 port.
The two terminals of the RS485 port are connected with a
twisted pair to the control mechanism, respecting the
order A + / B- without swap them.
To send commands using the following settings:

TARGET
Adjust zoom / focus - The camera is equipped with a
manual lens adjustable from 5 to 50 mm.
Once the camera is positioned it is necessary to adjust the
zoom and the focus of the lens by acting on the two
adjustment rings
Acting initially on ZOOM (most advanced ring) and adjust
the amplitude of the frame (wide angle / zoom) based on
the area to be framed. Remember that in most wide angle
corresponds inevitably less image detail.
Generally, it is good to fit a narrower width as possible
around the location where it will lie in the plate, so that
the same appears as large as possible in the frame.
Once defined the field of view act on FOCUS adjustment
(rearmost ring) to focus perfectly framed area. Recall that
each lens has its own depth of field to which it is possible
to put in focus in a perfect way only a portion of the space
in front of the camera. Concentrate on the most important
area where you will find the plate of the vehicle to adjust
the focus optimally.
It may be helpful for an optimal adjustment to position a
car stops at the exact point where it carries out the
reading of the license plate.
The objective also has a central ring for the aperture
(OPEN / CLOSE) which should be left in the full open
position.
IR LIGHT
The camera incorporates an internal infrared illuminator
that emits illumination invisible to the human eye, but
visible tothe camera. L'Illuminator turns itself on when it
gets dark and the camera switches alone in night vision
mode. The illuminator ignition allows the vision of
absolute darkness plate until its flow rate of 30 meters
illumination.
Note that in this camera, the illuminator is used for the
vision of the automobile license plate and does not allow,
if not marginally, the night vision of the medium or
environment. If this is required it must be the coaching of
another conventional camera.
IR brightness adjustment- E 'can adjust the brightness
of the illuminator to adapt to the distance of the shot. If
the plaque comes too close, within 10 m. for example,
agree to reduce the brightness to avoid that is too
bleached.
To properly adjust the lighting going into a real and
illuminators dark conditions lit by placing a retainer means
in the license plate reading point. If the license plate is
bleached with unreadable characters must reduce the
power of the LEDs. Acting on the adjustment so as to
optimize the illumination on the plate.
The power of the LEDs is adjusted with the button on the
camera cable or it is also possible remotely via RS485
serial port (see below).
Adjusting the IR LED power- Using the up and down
button increases and decreases the brightness of the
LEDs. The camera does not have indicators that show the
power of the LEDs selected, as this is physically visible on
the degree of power illuminator.
Once you reached the desired level must press the button
in a central location to store the power selected so that it
will be maintained in the event of mains failure.
BUTTON ON BOARD ROOM AND OSD MENU
On the electronic card there is a button that allows access
to the OSD less of the camera.
In this there are many settings menu. Care should be
taken that four of these are essential to enable the
reading of the day and night plaques.
LENS - This setting should be kept to MANUAL, having
these cameras a manual lens.
EXPOSURE / SHUTTER - This setting is factory value
1/400 and it is possible to maintain this value unchanged
until the speed of the means
less than 100 Km / h. If the means traveling at speeds
top is good to set a faster shutter as 1/1000 and beyond.
More it provides for the high speed of the medium to
resume more it will take a short amount of electronic
shutter time. However most it will shorten the shutter
time as it reduces the overall brightness of the night
video.
For this reason, if you anticipate lens means, as in the
case of driveways, it is also possible to lengthen the
shutter time of 1/200 to obtain a brighter image night.
The maximum speed of the means to resume can not
exceed 180 km / h.
EXPOSURE / AGC- This setting is factory preset to an
average value (6). You can increase the AGC to increase
nocturnal brightness, even in the face of most video
noise.
DAY & NIGHT - This setting should be kept to EXT so
that the happend / night passage is decided by the
external sensor of brightness.
