1. Overview
The ZC-PT series integrated indoor PTZ camera is a new sub-compact model
designed to deliver superb performance and durability combined with an intelligent
and stylish housing that is suitable for any security and surveillance installation. The
ZC-PT-XT series is a new weather resistant integrated outdoor PTZ camera. The
ZC-PT and ZC-PT-XT series support a standard wiring concept for easy installation,
and can be integrated with CCTV products, such as DVRs, control keyboards and
CCTV accessories to provide a total surveillance solution.
The PTZ camera range includes four models of new generation advanced DSP colour
cameras:
ZC-PT226 model: 26× optical zoom / 12× digital magnification
ZC-PT223 model: 23× optical zoom / 12× digital magnification
ZC-PT222 model: 22× optical zoom / 12× digital magnification
ZC-PT218 model: 18× optical zoom / 12× digital magnification
The PTZ camera delivers the power of a 312 x zoom, enabling it to capture clear
images from a long distance away. Continuous auto focus, back light compensation,
auto exposure and digital slow shutter functions are provided to ensure clear and high
quality images. The key features incorporated to meet your needs include a
removable IR cut filter to 24-hour operation, additional privacy masks specially
designed to prevent any intrusive monitoring in specific areas and a wide dynamic
range function. The Home function allows the user to specify a preset position as the
‘home position’ or function (sequence/auto-pan/cruise). The PTZ camera can then
5
return to its home position or function when the user does not operate any of the
controls for a set period of time. The unique scheduling function also enables users to
program a preset point or function (sequence/auto-pan, cruise), which is
automatically triggered at a certain time.
The PTZ camera provides variable pan/tilt speeds ranging from a fast patrol of 400°
per second to a slow sweep of 5° per second with 0.225° pan accuracy for fast and
accurate tracking capability. The 360° continuous rotation and -10°~190° tilt travel
allows an object passing directly underneath the PTZ camera to be tracked. Up to 256
preset points can be programmed for precise location of target areas, and you can
also define 8 sequence, 4 auto-pan and 1 cruise route for the camera to operate
automatically. An RS-485 communication port is available for remote control
purposes.
Page 7
User’s Manual
The PTZ camera provides 8 alarm inputs and 2 alarm outputs, and the smart alarm
management mechanism can be programmed using the OSD setup menu; certain
functions (Preset/Sequence/Auto-Pan/Cruise) can be activated when an alarm is
triggered.
More than 10 built-in protocols including, GANZ-PT, GANZ-S, Pelco-D, -P, VCL,
Philips, AD-422 (Manchester) etc. provide connectivity to other surveillance systems,
allowing the integrated PTZ camera to be used in conjunction with systems from other
manufacturers.
Dependability and ultra high reliability are key factors of the camera design. Every
PTZ camera is assembled with meticulous care and thorough testing at our ISO 9001
certified factory. High performance, reliability, and reasonable pricing make this
camera an ideal solution for even the toughest surveillance requirements.

various models are described below.
18×/26× Model:
AUTO
The optimum focus is achieved using the internal digital circuit. There are 3
modes for users to select for different conditions.
Normal AF (auto focus) mode: The PTZ camera will automatically adjust the
focus of the picture.
Zoom trigger mode: When the zoom ratio is changed using the TELE or
WIDE buttons on the control keyboard or another control unit, the PTZ camera
will automatically adjust the focus again after a period of time (the preset value
is initially set to five seconds).

3.3.5 AE MODE
The exposure is the amount of light captured by the image sensor and is determined
by how wide you open the lens diaphragm (iris adjustment), how long you leave the
sensor exposed (shutter speed) and other exposure parameters. This option allows
users to define how the Auto Exposure (AE) function will work.
18×/26× Model:
AUTO
In this mode, the camera’s IRIS and AGC (Auto Gain Control) circuits work
together automatically to adjust the light exposure of the image sensor in
order to obtain a consistent video output level. In these conditions, the shutter
speed is fixed at 1/60 (NTSC) or 1/50 (PAL). Users can adjust the internal
brightness reference level using auto exposure compensation to control the
brightness of camera. The exposure compensation value can be selected
between <0> and <16> and the gain varies from -10.5 dB to 10.5 dB. Each
step is 1.5 dB and an exposure compensation value of <7> is equal to a gain
value of 0 dB. The camera will not compensate for brightness if exposure
compensation is set to <OFF>. The default setting is <OFF>.
BRIGHT
The brightness control function adjusts the IRIS and AGC gain using an
internal algorithm. The brightness is controlled by the gain in dark lighting
conditions and by the iris in bright lighting conditions.
SHUTTER
This option means that the shutter speed is the main factor controlling the
exposure, and both IRIS and AGC will function automatically in conjunction
with the set shutter speed to achieve consistent exposure output.
GAIN
The automatic gain control function means that the gain is the main factor
controlling the exposure, taking priority over SHUTTER and IRIS. The
internal circuit will function automatically to obtain a consistent exposure.
IRIS
This option gives the IRIS function a higher priority. The shutter speed and the
AGC circuit will function automatically in conjunction with the ARIS setting to
obtain consistent exposure output. Opening a lens controls the amount of light
23
reaching the surface of the selected device. Increasing the F-stop number
(F/1.6, F/2, F/2.4, etc.) allows less light to pass.

22×/23× Model:
AUTO
In this mode, the camera’s shutter, IRIS and AGC control functions work
together automatically to adjust the light exposure of the image sensor in
order to obtain a consistent video output level. IRIS OFF SET is used to set
the level of IRIS variation.
SHUTTER
This option means that the SHUTTER setting takes priority over IRIS and
AGC; the IRIS and AGC circuits will function automatically in conjunction with
the set shutter speed to obtain a consistent exposure.
IRIS
This option means that the IRIS setting takes priority over SHUTTER and
AGC; the SHUTTER and AGC circuits will function automatically in
conjunction with the IRIS setting to obtain a consistent exposure. If the IRIS
setting is modified manually, exposure compensation depends on the AGC
circuit.
AGC
This option means that the AGC setting takes priority over SHUTTER and
IRIS; the SHUTTER and IRIS circuits will function automatically in conjunction

3.3.6 WBC MODE
A digital camera needs to find a reference colour temperature, which is a way of
measuring the quality of a light source, in order to correctly calculate all the other
colours. The unit for measuring this ratio is degrees Kelvin (K). You can select one of
the white balance control modes depending on the conditions. The following table
shows the colour temperature of some light sources.
