✜ Sensor IN/Alarm OUT Ports
Equipped with a sensor input, these cameras can
receive triggers from an external sensor. Also, two
alarm relay outputs can be used to trigger external
devices to perform a variety of actions.
✜ IEEE802.1X Compliant
These cameras support IEEE802.1X port-based
network access control. This means they can be
integrated to a network environment that uses the
IEEE802.1X client-authorization protocol for security
purposes.
Other Convenient Features
✜ Solid PTZ/Cropping Functions
To minimize data size when network bandwidth is
limited, Solid PTZ and Cropping are useful features. The
Solid PTZ function allows users to select a specified area
within the camera's field of view at a lower resolution
such as VGA. By doing so, users can electronically pan,
tilt, and zoom within the image.
(See Fig. 4)
In addition,
the Solid PTZ function can be used in conjunction with
motion detection, allowing users to monitor only areas
where there is movement and to automatically track
moving objects within the camera's field of view.
The cropping function allows users to freely crop
portions of the full-resolution megapixel image to
accentuate a monitoring area or to remove areas that
do not need to be monitored.

✜ Date/Time Superimposition
The date and time of images recorded by these
cameras can be superimposed on the video while it is
being monitored and recorded. This makes it easy to
identify the exact date and time of an event during
playback. Also, because the information becomes
part of the video image, it is a useful feature when
providing video evidence to authorities. In addition, up
to 20 characters on a single line can be used to display
further information such as the monitoring location and
the camera name.
✜ Privacy Zone Masking
These cameras can mask up to seven unwanted or
prohibited areas within an image for privacy protection.
✜ Analog Composite Video Output
An analog composite video signal can be output via
the BNC connector. This feature is ideal for storing
images to a local recorder.
✜ 24 V AC, 12 V DC, or PoE Operation
These cameras offer a choice of three types of power:
24 V AC, 12 V DC, or PoE (Power-over-Ethernet, IEEE
802.3af). They automatically adapt to whichever
power source is used, making installation fast and
effective.
✜ Network Features
• Simultaneous Access for up to 10 Users
• Multicasting Capability
