Ideal Digital Video Camera for Security
2308X Series is a compact camera that offers easy system
integration.Coming with the built-in zoom lens,the user can monitor
the scene from variable angle without the extra lens.
And,with the D.S.P. technology,such intelligent controls as auto iris ,
auto back light compensation and auto white balance are possible to
realize clear detailed picture. Additionally,through RS-232C/RS-485
linkage, remote Focus/Zoom operations are also possible,along with
manual control.All these features including highly sensitive 1/4-inch
CCD make the ideal digital processing CCTV camera 2308X Series
more effective surveillance activities.
Built -in Optical power zoom lens
2308X Series with highly durable built-in zoom lens offers auto focus,
auto iris , and optical zoom functions enabling the user to monitor
a scene with clarity in any desired angle of view. With the x23 optical
zoom lens and up to x8 digital zoom processing,zoom ratio of the
2308X is expanded to x184.
High Resolution & sensitivity SONY CCD
The chassis features a highly sensitive 1/4-inch CCD pickup with
approximately 380,000(NTSC), 440,000(PAL) effective pixels
minimizing residual image and geometric distortion. All images are
reproduced with a high horizontal resolution of 470(NTSC),
450(PAL) TV lines for fine detail.
Remote Control through RS232C/RS485 Interface
Remote control operations are possible through RS232C/RS485
interface for Focus and Zoom (optical:up to x23,digital ~ x8) control.
In addition,the unit lets you command white balance and exposure
manually using RS232C/RS485 interface.
Compact size for various applications
2308X Series comes in the compact aluminum case enabling
the users put the unit into the other forms of other outer case
( such as large dome camera or built in P/T/Z applications)
according to the particular purpose.
1. Features
AI / Fuzzy Control Circuit with DSP
Advanced DSP(Digital Signal Processor) technology automatically
adjusts operations such as Iris , White Balance flexibly adapting to
environmental conditions.
Auto Iris :the iris is adjusted so that visual output is kept at a fixed
level,even if brightness of the surrounding changes.
Auto White Balance :color adjustment according to the color
temperature of the light source illuminating the subject.
white balance can be obtained even with fluorescent
lights, halogen lamps or outdoor.

conditions. It is composed of five modes.
ATW ( Auto Trace White balance )
: do automatically under any condition in range 2,800°K ~ 8,000°K
It can be adjustable red and blue point of desired white position
INDOOR ( Indoor Preset WB )
: Use to set the preset illumination condition as 3200°K.
OUTDOOR ( Outdoor Preset WB )
: Use to set the preset illumination condition as 5400°K.
MANUAL ( Manual WB )
: Use to adjust to desired color temperature manually.
(0 ~ 99 decimal value )

MANUAL 50 ( It can be adjust )
AWC LOCK → PUSH → . . . .
(LOCK means Manual white balance status. Press NEAR(+) / FAR(-)
key continuously, LOCK mode becomes PUSH mode and white balance
acts automatically, and then white balance mode is locked as manual.)
ⓒSet Focus Mode
: It is composed of three modes.
AUTO : Use to focus automatically all the time.
MANUAL : Use to focus manually by pushing NEAR(+) / FAR(-)key.
Even though MANUAL mode, it will be focused in about 5 seconds after
zoom in(TELE) / out(WIDE), and return to MANUAL mode automatically.
This is for focusing accurately after zooming.
ONESHOT(option) : It is similar to MANUAL mode.
But there are some difference.
In case the focus mode is ONESHOT, it is focused whenever ONESHOT
(AUTO/MANUAL key) key is pushed. It will be returned to MANUAL mode
after the fixed seconds even though can not be found best focus.
(Taking time is able to set in Special Menu. ) In this case
push ONESHOT(AUTO/MANUAL key) key again, it will be in best focus.
PUSHAUTO(option) : While pushauto key is pushing, focus mode is auto.
☞ caution
1. According to Model, focus mode is Auto -> Manual -> Oneshot
or Auto -> Manual -> Pushauto.
