u Ultra high resolution 960H sensor

u High Dynamic Range to see bright and dark details

simultaneously

The FLEXIDOME 5000 camera is the ultimate solution
for virtually any indoor or outdoor surveillance
application. This vandal-resistant dome camera uses a
high performance 960H 1/3-inch CCD sensor with a
resolution of 720TVL. The sensor, the high dynamic
range engine and the advanced image processing
technology combine to provide a detailed image with
outstanding accuracy in color reproduction even under
harsh lighting conditions. True day/night performance
ensures the highest image quality possible at any time,
day or night. The camera is easy to install and ready to
use, and offers the best solution for demanding scene
conditions.

System overview

The cast-aluminum housing, polycarbonate dome, and
hardened inner liner can withstand the equivalent of
55 kg (120 lbs) of force. The enclosure contains the
full-featured camera and integral varifocal lens. Ideal
for outdoor use, the cameras are protected against
water and dust to IP66 and NEMA Type 4X standards.
The camera enclosure provides the extra protection
necessary for applications such as schools, banks,
prisons, parking garages, retail and industrial
buildings.

u High impact, vandal-resistant, weatherproof housing

u Bilinx communication for remote set-up and control

u Easy to install

Installation is quick and easy, as the camera comes
completely assembled and ready to use. Using the
proprietary pan/tilt/rotation mechanism, installers can
select the exact field of view. Mounting options are
numerous, including surface, 4S (USA), wall, corner
and suspended ceiling. The compact, sleek design and
virtually flush-mount appearance complements any
decor.
The camera is supplied ready to operate. Six distinct
pre-programmed operational modes are stored in the
camera. Recall the mode that suits your application for
optimized performance.

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 camera 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 advanced image
processing technology in the camera combines these
dual shutter images, mixing pixels from each exposure

to produce the most detailed image possible. The
superior wide dynamic range for all lighting conditions
reveals details previously unseen.

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.

Ease of installation

The lens wizard helps focus the lens at the maximum
opening to ensure proper back-focus is maintained
throughout the 24-hour cycle. No special tools or
filters are required.
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.
Several other features are available that make
installation easy:

• Video BNC and power connectors on flying leads.

• A built-in test pattern generator produces signals to
test and fault-find cables.

• A multi-language On-Screen Display (OSD).

• A high efficiency power supply improves maximum
operating temperature

Cable compensation is used to avoid the need for
amplifiers in long distance coaxial connections up to
1000 m (3000 ft). It can prevent the image quality
degradation caused by signal losses from long cable
lengths.

Bilinx technology

Bilinx is a bidirectional communication capability
embedded in the video signal of this camera. Installers
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 set-up 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.

Ideal picture performance

There are many settings available to help fine-tune the
picture performance to match your installation
environment. These include:

• Smart BLC – automatically and dynamically
compensates for strong backlight

• Peak White Invert – reduces glare from highlight
areas

• Contrast and sharpness – enhance details in bright or
misty scenes

• SensUp – sensitivity is dramatically enhanced by a
factor of 10

• Default shutter – improves the motion performance in
auto exposure mode

• Dynamic noise reduction – dynamically reduces noise
in the picture

Privacy masking

Fifteen different privacy zones allow specific parts of a
scene to be blocked. Pre-program any part of the
scene to be masked.

Video Motion Detection

The built-in video motion detector allows you to select
four programmable areas with sensitivity thresholds.
When motion is detected, alarms can be displayed in
the video signal or an alarm message can be
transmitted via Bilinx.

Lens Options

With this dome camera, there is no compromise
between scene coverage and aesthetics of the camera.
The camera brings the widest choice of lens selection.
Choose lenses between 2.8 to 10.5 mm for wide
coverage, 9 to 22 mm VF lens for standard coverage,
or 18 to 50 mm for long-rang coverage.

Typical applications

• Entrance foyer/lobby with glass

• Warehouses and loading bays

• Prisons and correctional facilities

• Airport locations including:

– baggage handling
– fuel and equipment storage

• Stadium
