network, assign an IP address or use the
included null-modem cable for modem
installation.

Camera

Digital, 24-bit color.

Image sensor

1/3 inch Sony super HAD interlaced CCD.

HxV: 768x495 (NTSC), 752x582 (PAL).

Resolution (pixels): 704x480 (NTSC)
704x576 (PAL).

Exposure

Backlight compensation.

Automatic AGC.

Automatic and fixed White Balance.

Electronic shutter: 1/60s (1/50s)-1/10.000 sec.

to 25-55mm on a 35mm camera. Ideal for
outdoor monitoring (in outdoor housing).

Image

Image frame rate: up to 30 (25) frames/s at
352x240 (352x288) resolution. Up to 12 (10)
frames/s at 704x480 (704x576) resolution.
NTSC (PAL).

JPEG still images and Motion-JPEG video.

High-speed hardware-based image
compression, generating high quality JPEG
images.

5 levels of compression are available. The file size
of a JPEG compressed image depends on the
actual content of the image. Images containing
a lot of detail will generate larger files. Image
quality is controlled through the level of
compression. High compression yields smaller
files at the expense of image quality, while low
compression results in larger files, but maintains
image quality. The table below shows average
file sizes, derived from real life tests.

Configurable maximum bandwidth limitation
to prevent network saturation. 30 (25)
frames/s typically requires about 1.5 Mbit/s.

General I/O

Accepts dial-in and dial-out via external
modem (not included).

Event triggered remote image storage via
e-mail and FTP.

System Requirements

Compatible with operating systems such as
Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows XP,

Operating Environment

Requires proper environmental housing for
outdoor use.

Operating temperature: 40–122º F (5–50º C).

Humidity: 20-80% RHG, non-condensing.

The DC-Iris lens must be used and correctly
configured for use in environments where
strong light conditions prevail. Avoid aiming
the camera directly towards extremely bright
objects such as the sun, as this may damage
the CCD image sensor.
