Planet Technology 23x Indoor Speed Dome Camera CAM-ISD48 - Manual (Page 5)

2. Preface
Congratulations for the purchasing of the world most compact PTZ (Pan, Tilt
and Zoom) camera. The camera is designed and manufactured not just to
meet the requirements for traditional CCTV and modern digital surveillance,
but also increase the systems’ overall performance.
This camera line incorporates high resolution color CCD, with two types of
lens available: power zoom or vari-focal. Some image and special effect
functions are related to the type of lens, while other functions are the same
across the line.
The PT mechanism provides controllable panning (360
o
) and tilting (90
o
)+
auto-rotation (180
o
) functions, giving users the capability to manipulate the
camera for precise locating on target. The built-in micro-controller allows users
to program up to 64 presets for quick and accurate capture to specific view
positions. Moving speed, ranging from 0.25 to 300 degrees per second and is
selectable to controller, is variable in 16 optional levels. Dwell time of each
view position is also selectable from 1second up to 255 seconds.
System function includes I/O for alarm function for intrusion management, ID
setup
(maximum to 128) and impedance matching option for multiple node
system, 3 control protocols, 3 options of baud rates, RS-485 communication
format. This device is driven by DC12V power. It can be controlled by
keyboard, PC, video server or standalone DVR.
For the power zoom version, a number of image related functions (such as
DSP functions, lens functions, special effects of video…) are managed via
OSD (On-Screen-Display) menu. These functions are explained in the section
of OSD with details. The CCD can be set up for automatic switching to
black-white mode for night-vision ready when illumination is low.
This camera is designed to be water-resistant for outdoor use, under the
condition of normal temperature range from -10
o
to 50
o
C. A companion
outdoor housing is also available for severe weather condition (extreme low or
high temperature environment).
