GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Sidewinder SW720 24VAC Series is a pan-tilt-zoom camera system that provides
standard definition or High Definition 720p/1080p color video over 75 Ohm video
coaxial cables. The camera provides 360 degree continuous rotation in both the pan and
tilt axes, and provides an optical zoom magnification of 36 times in the standard
definition model and 20 times or 30 times in the high definition model. A self-cleaning
hydrophilic coating is provided on the front lens window of the camera to ensure clear,
crisp video images and to reduce maintenance. An electrically conductive Indium-Tin-
Oxide coating is provided on the inside of the front lens window to heat it and prevent
fogging.
The Sidewinder SW720 series of 24VAC cameras operates on AC power within a
voltage range of 18VAC to 30VAC measured at the camera and an operating frequency
of 47Hz to 63Hz. Power, control and video signals are brought out of the side of the
camera on an 18 Pin MS style male connector.
Camera PTZ control is implemented using an RS-485 serial data port which supports
several industry standard camera control protocols, including Pelco D protocol and
COHU protocol. Standard definition models are provided with an NTSC 1Vpp video
output. High definition models are provided with 3 75 Ohm 1Vpp analog video outputs in
Y-Pb-Pr format.
The Sidewinder SW720 series of 24VAC cameras are also available with an electric
brake option to hold the camera in position during transport.
