IV. Description of Functions
1. IR Lamp
The latest LED Array technology is adopted for this IR High Speed Dome
Camera. LED Array is highly integration of traditional LED. Comparing with
traditional LED, it has some advantages as below.
A. Higher brightness: Since LED Array is integration of LED, the brightness
and the viewing distance are greatly increased.
B. Longer lifespan, due to the difference of the transparent material and the
heat-dispersion effect, the lifespan of the LED Array is about 10 times as the
traditional LED.
C. More evenly distributed light: The half-intensified beam angle of the
traditional LED is about 10°, well it is 10°-120° (variable angle) for LED Array,
which together with multi-angle disposal make the light evenly distributed and
can light the whole room.
For this unit, the latest 3rd generation IR LED Array technology is adopted,
campared with the 1st and 2nd generation IR LED Array, it has advantages as
below:
A. The light giving out efficiency is much higher. The latest technology is
adopted for the 3rd generation IR LED Array, under the same power
consumption, the brightness is 2.5~3 times as the previous LED Array. At
night, the visible distance is up to 150m or so.
B. The heat produced is much less when the IR lamp is turned on. Since the
light generating efficiency of the 3rd generation IR Led Array is much higher,
under the same power, less power is turned into heat and wasted, thus the
lifespan of the IR Lamp is much longer.
2. Whole-day (24 hours/day) monitoring
The camera module inside is IR sensitive with IR-cut. In the daytime, the
image is color and vivid. Well, at night, it turns to B&W, at the same time, the
IR lamps will be turned on, which ensures the image crisp. Therefore
whole-day (24 hours) monitoring is realized.
3. OSD Menu Operation
All the functions of the pan/tilt and the built-in camera module can be
- 9 -
conveniently configured and carried out through the OSD menu. These
functions include: Preset Positions, Tours, Pattern Scan, Left & Right Scan,
Privacy Mask, Alarm, Language Choosing, and the configuration of the
parameters of the Camera Module etc. The user can also edit the title of the
IR High-speed Dome Cameras and the preset positions through multiple
Input Modes, so that the titles are easier to be remembered and identified.
The above functions make the IR High-speed Dome Camera really realize
intelligent control and in-time monitoring.
4. Trace the Target
The users can control the movement of the unit by operating the joystick
of the keyboard so that they can trace the moving object or change the
monitoring area. The angle of view or the size of the image of the object can
be changed through adjusting the focal length. In the default Auto-focus,
Auto-Iris state, following the movement of the unit, the lens will quickly adjust
itself to get clear image according to the change of the object.
5. Automatic Adjustment of Focal Length/Movement Speed
When the focus is long and in the mode of manual adjustment, due to the
high sensitivity of the IR High-speed Dome Camera, even the slightest
movement of the joystick would make the image move quickly, which causes
image losses. Based on human design, the IR High-speed Dome Camera
can automatically adjust the horizontal and vertical moving speed of the
pan/tilt according to the current focal-length, which makes the manual
target-tracing operation much easier.
6. Configure and Invoke Preset Positions
The preset position function works in this way: the IR High-speed Dome
Camera stores the data of the pan/tilt angles and lens focal-length in current
state; when needed, invoke these data, then promptly move the pan/tilt and
camera module to the corresponding position. Through the OSD menu, the
user can quickly and conveniently configure, invoke, delete the preset
positions and edit the title of the preset positions. When the user invokes the
preset position through the OSD menu, the unit will move to the preset
position promptly, at the same time, the title of the preset positon editted by
the user will be shown. The unit supports 128 preset positions.
- 10 -
7. Automatic Tours
The automatic tour function is a built-in function of the IR High-speed
Dome Camera. Through beforehand programming, the user can arrange the
preset positions into the automatic tour in the desired order. When it’s needed
to run the tour, operating through the OSD menu, the user can make the IR
High-speed Dome Camera automatically move as per the order of the preset
positions configured in the tour with preset time intervals.
● The staying time at each preset position can be configured.
● Altogether 4 tours can be configured with the unit.
● Sixteen preset positions can be stored in one tour.
8. Left & right Scan
Left/right limiting positions can be conveniently set through OSD menu.
After configuring well, the user can run the left/right scan directly through the
OSD menu, then the IR High-speed Dome Camera will automatically run
horizontally between the left limiting position and the right limiting position, at
the preset speed.
9. 360° Scan
360° endless scan is supported. When running 360° scan, the unit will
rotating endlessly. There are low, medium and high 3 grades optional for the
running speed of the 360° scan.
10. Pattern Scan
The unit can store the user’s operating track and invoke it when
necessary. A 4-minutes operation is acceptable to be stored for one Pattern
Scan track. Altogether 4 Pattern Scan tracks can be stored in this unit.
11. Privacy Mask
Within the monitoring range, if some privacy zones should be shielded
from being monitored, some mask zones can be set within the monitoring
image. Altogether 8 Privacy Mask zones can be set in the unit.
12. Alarm Function
The user can set the key areas as alarm points. Through the linkage with
the external-connected detector, once there is alarm signal transmitted to the
unit, the unit will promptly adjust the camera module to shoot the alarm point,
at the same time, it will output alarm signal through the alarm output port.
- 11 -
13. Idle Time Function
Users can set the function that is to be carried out in idle time as the Idle
Time Function. If the user exit the OSD menu after finishing with other
operations, and if the IR High-speed Dome Camera is in still state without
running, then after a period of time during which nobody operates the unit,
the unit will automatically begin to carry out Idle Time Function that is
configured in advance. The functions that can be set as Idle Time Function
include invoking preset position, running left&right scan, running tour etc. The
length of the period of time after which the Idle Time Function is to be carried
out can be set, the range is 1~240minutes.
14. Memory recalling function once power off
The unit has memory recalling function when power is off. If the unit is
running preset position, left & right scan, 360° scan, auto tour etc functions
when the power is off, then once the power is on, the unit will automatically
resume the ever-running functions after finishing self-checking
15. Camera module Lens Control
Users can adjust the Focal-length through controlling the keyboard to get
panoramic view or close view that they desire.
Focal Length Control
Users can adjust the Focal-length through controlling the keyboard to get
panoramic view or close view that they desire.
Focus Control
The system takes automatic focus as the default. While moving, the
camera module can automatically focus on the center of the object view to
get clear image. Under special circumstances, the user can manually adjust
the focus to achieve desired image effect.
● Manual focus can be realized through controlling the keyboard or matrix.
For details, please refer to the operation manual of the controlling keyboard
or matrix.
● In the state of manual focus, the user can control focal–length to make the
lens focus on objects. If the IR High-speed Dome Camera is configured to
resume auto-focus upon joystick operation, when there is operating on the
joystick, the IR High-speed Dome Camera will automatically focus. If a period
- 12 -
of time is configured for auto-focus resuming, once there is no controlling
order received, after the period of time, the IR High-speed Dome Camera will
resume auto-focus.
Under the following circumstances, the camera module can not carry
out auto-focus:
● When the object is not in the center of the view.
● When simultaneously observe a far object and a near one, clarity for both of
the images can not be guaranteed at the same time.
● When observing objects with extreme brightness, such as neon lights,
spotlight, etc
● When the object is behind the glass with water drops or dust
● When the object moves very fast
● When the object is large-sized and drab, such as wall
● When the object is too dark or fuzzy
Iris Control
● The system takes automatic-iris as the default. The iris can automatically
sense the change of the environmental light and make quick adjustment, so
that the brightness of the image is stable.
● The user can manually adjust the iris through controlling the keyboard to
obtain desired brightness for the image.
Automatic Back Light Compensation (BLC)
Automatic Back Light Compensation can be realized via district dividing.
In extremely bright background, the camera module can compensate the
brightness of the relatively dark objects, while adjust the light of the bright
background, avoiding that the whole image is too bright to watch due to the
too high brightness of the background while the object is too dark to be
distinguished, so that clear image can be got.
Automatic White Balance
According to the ambient brightness, the camera module can
automatically adjust the White Balance to re-display the real colors.
