REHXT0550-1, Quick Installation Guide
1. Description
This manual applies to the REHXT0550-1 network camera.
The Network Camera provides a network service for a progressive-scan image sensor that can be
monitored on a real-time screen regardless of distance or location. By using its dedicated program,
many users are able to access the Network Camera at once, or a single user can monitor various
network cameras at the same time. It also enables users to play, store and retrieve a monitored image
by using a PC. All the settings and real-time monitoring screens are also provided through web access.
The Network Camera is fully featured for security surveillance and remote monitoring needs. It is
based on a DSP compression chip, and makes it available on the network as real-time, full frame rate
Motion JPEG and H.264 (or MPEG-4) video streams.
The alarm input and alarm output can be used to connect various third party devices, such as door
sensors and alarm bells.
