Introduction Characteristics Ⅵ The camera uses a high-resolution 380,000 pixel, high-Senstivity CCD to realize high picture quality with horizontal resolution of 540 TV lines. Ⅵ Frame Rate Supports a maximum frame rate of 30 fps when resolution is 640 x 480 in the JPEG compression format. Ⅵ Supports Multicast Support for multicast enables sending of an image data to multiple PCs on the network at one time without lowering the frame rate. Ⅵ Built-in CF (Compact Flash) Slot Interface with alarms and enables storage of a recording file in the CF card. Please purchase the CF card separately. Ⅵ Motion Detection Feature Enables output of alarm upon detecting motion of images within a specified area. Ⅵ Built-in Web Server Enables browsing using the Internet Explorer. Operating Precautions Ⅵ To save energy, turn off the power supply of the system when not in use. Ⅵ This camera is intended for indoor use. It cannot be used outdoors. Ⅵ Do not install or use the camera in the following locations. • Places exposed to rain or water • Places containing vapor or oil soot, such as kitchens • Places exceeding the operating ambient temperature range (0˚ to 40˚) • Places where corrosive gases are generated • Places nearby radiation or X-rays as well as sources of strong radio waves or magnetism • Places subject to vibration • Places with excessive dust Ⅵ Insufficient ventilation may cause the camera to malfunction. Be careful not to block ventilation around the camera. This camera radiates heat from its surfaces (top panel facing ceiling and side panel). Do not install at a location that may trap heat, such as near the walls. Ⅵ Do not install at a location that may expose the camera directly to cool air, such as nearby the air outlet of air conditioners. This may cause moisture to condense within the dome cover. Ⅵ Dew condensation may occur when there is a drastic change in the ambient temperature of the camera, hence causing a malfunction. When the camera is installed at such locations, turn on the power after allowing it to dry for a few hours. Ⅵ Do not point the camera lens at a strong light source such as the sun. Doing so may cause the camera to malfunction. Ⅵ This camera contains a built-in AGC circuit. As a result, gain increases at dark places and screen may appear grainy. This is not a malfunction. Ⅵ When an equipment that generates a strong magnetic field, such as transceivers, is used near this camera with the AGC turned on, beat noises may appear in the image. When using a transceiver, therefore, place it at least 3 m away from this camera. Ⅵ If this camera or cable connected this unit is used near a location where strong electrical or magnetic waves are generated (eg. radios, TVs, transformers, monitors, etc.), noise interference may occur in the image or its color may be affected. Ⅵ When this camera is used in the White Balance (ATW) mode, the colors captured may differ slightly from the actual colors due to the operational principles of the auto-tracking white balance circuit. This is not a malfunction. 6
