u 20-bit Image Processing Technology
u CCD sensor with Wide Dynamic Range
The LTC 0498 Dinion2X Day/Night camera is a highperformance, smart, surveillance camera. It uses a 1/3inch, wide dynamic range CCD sensor and
incorporates advanced (20-bit) digital signal
processing for outstanding picture performance.
The 20-bit image processing enhances sensitivity; the
2X-Dynamic extends the dynamic range. This unique
combination provides a sharper, more detailed image
with outstanding accuracy in color reproduction even
under harsh lighting conditions.
The Dinion2X camera is easy to install and ready to
use, and offers the best solution for demanding scene
conditions. The day/night feature ensures the highest
image quality possible at any time. Depending on the
available light the camera will automatically switch
from color to monochrome.
All Dinion cameras are supplied ready to operate.
Simply attach the lens, connect video and then power.
Six distinct pre-programmed operational modes are
stored in the camera. Recall the mode that suits your
application for optimized performance.
The camera automatically detects the lens type. The
lens wizard ensures accurate back-focusing for
perfectly sharp pictures at all times. For especially
challenging situations where fine tuning or special

Functions
Detail in Extreme Lighting
In harsh lighting, the difference between the brightest
and the darkest parts of a scene can be extreme. To
produce a clear picture in these conditions, the CCD
sensor in the Dinion2X generates two images; one long
exposure to resolve details in the scene’s darkest
areas, and one short exposure to resolve details in the
scene’s brightest areas. The Digital Signal Processor
(DSP) of the Dinion2X combines these dual shutter
images, mixing pixels from each exposure to produce
the most detailed image possible.
20-bit Image Processing
The highly accurate digital signal processing optimally
captures the detail in both bright highlights and deep
shadows simultaneously. By combining 20-bit image
processing and wide dynamic range, the Dinion2X
maximizes the information visible in the picture even
with strong backlighting.

Wide Dynamic Range
The superior wide dynamic range handling for all
lighting conditions reveals details previously unseen.
2X-Dynamic and SmartBLC
Using 2X-Dynamic technology, pixel-by-pixel analysis
provides the user with the most detailed information.
Turn on SmartBLC to automatically compensate the
image without the need for complicated set-up or
without compromising dynamic range.
Detail Enhancement
Features such as Autoblack and Sharpness further
improve the details in a scene, pixel by pixel.
Day/Night Mode
The day/night mode provides enhanced night viewing
by increasing the IR sensitivity. The IR filter can switch
from color to monochrome automatically by either
sensing the illumination level or via the alarm input.
The filter can be switched manually via the alarm
input, through the camera menu or via the Bilinx
coaxial control interface. An internal through-the-lens
IR detector enhances the monochrome mode stability,
as it prevents reverting to the color mode when IR
illumination is dominant. IR contrast is also measured
and used to handle reflected IR light in outdoor
scenes.
Privacy masking
Four different privacy zones allow specific parts of a
scene to be blocked. Pre-program any part of the
scene to be masked.
Default Shutter
The default shutter speed captures fast moving
objects when sufficient light is available. When light
levels fall and other adjustments have been exhausted,
the shutter speed reverts to a standard setting to
maintain sensitivity.
Bilinx Technology
Bilinx is a bidirectional communication capability
embedded in the video signal of all Bosch Dinion
cameras. Technicians can check status, change camera
settings and even update firmware from virtually
anywhere along the video cable. Bilinx reduces service
and installation time, provides for more accurate setup and adjustment, and improves overall performance.
In addition, Bilinx uses the standard video cable to
transmit alarm and status messages, providing
superior performance without additional installation
steps.
Lens Wizard
The Lens Wizard automatically detects the lens type
and helps focus the lens at the maximum opening to
ensure proper focus is maintained throughout the 24hour cycle. No special tools or filters are required.
Ease of installation
Several features are available that make installation
easy:
• Power and alarm connections have cable connectors
which can be removed even when the camera is
mounted.
• A built-in test pattern generator produces signals to
test and fault-find cables.
• A multi-language On-Screen Display (OSD) increases
user compatibility.
Programmable Modes
Six independent, pre-programmed operating modes
support typical applications, but are fully
programmable for individual situations. Switching
between modes is easy via Bilinx or the external alarm
input.
High efficiency
A high efficiency power supply improves maximum
operating temperature.
Video Motion Detection
The built-in video motion detector allows you to select
a programmable area with individual thresholds. The
global scene change detector minimizes false alarms
caused by sudden lighting condition changes, such as
switching on or off the indoor or security lighting.
When motion is detected, alarms can be displayed in
the video signal, the output relay can be closed or an
alarm message can be transmitted via Bilinx.
SensUp Dynamic
By increasing the integration time up to 10 times on
the CCD, the effective sensitivity is dramatically
enhanced. This is especially useful when relying only
on moonlight for illumination.
Typical applications:
• Entrance foyer or lobby with glare
• Outdoor perimeters
– low light
– IR light
• Traffic monitoring
– highway
– traffic intersections
– emergency response coordination
• Tunnels
• Car parks (outdoor)
• Restricted access locations such as:
– prisons
– ports / freight terminals
– military facilities
– border control and homeland security
• Casino and gambling centers.
