Introduction
High-quality, high efficiency video & audio transmission via IP network
The network surveillance camera allows you to v iew live video over internet. Your
control center can be set up anywhere with internet access without being
restricted by locations. Surveillance video is processed by the most up-to date
compression technology and transmitted in MPEG-4 compression format, whose
transmission efficiency and video quality remain uncompromised by the network,
minimizing the lagging of live surveillance video. In addition, wireless LAN is also
supported. The wireless model makes the network usage more handy without the
hassle of cable installation.
Great usability in every surveillance aspect
The network surveillance camera’s ease of use begins with its web-based user
interface, using Microsoft Internet Explorer to browse the live video or the
provided Windows client Surveillance Management Cent er(SMC) that off ers many
additional benefits: its user interface can display video up to 9 camera servers at
the same time. Recording can also be done simultaneously and you can use it to
view recorded video from the archive and backup your recorded file with audio.
- Page 10 -
Unparalleled surveillance functions where nothing slips through your
watch
The network surveillance camera’s motion detection fun ction sends out the alarm
when any movement of any object occurring on the scene is detected, which
makes it ideal for home and after-hour facility security . 16 preset positions can be
programmed and the auto-cruise function will make t he tour accordin gly as if you
were taking the patrol rounds in person.
You can also program the cameras to take snapshots or record video when the
alarm is triggered by the event. These snapshots can be transmitted via FTP or
email. Event recording is done by a client PC on the netw ork as the camera send s
snapshot in JPEG format as part of the responses to the triggered event.
Optional centralized management software for large scale surveillance
services
The software suite performs as a central control station on a client PC that controls,
manages, and monitors up to 9 network surveillance camera server units over the
network at the same time. You can talk to your surveillance camera just by a click on
the managed camera to start 2-way audio conversation. The flexible and diversified
SMC offer you handy surveillance solution on Windows platform.

How to Connect？
Both NSC3615 / NSC3621 equip with 1DI / 1DO connector and PC compatible
mono microphone and speaker. You can also find 2 pinholes (NSC3615:rear view
/ NSC3621: back side view of bottom) on surveillance camera. One is Factory
Default and the other one is Reset. Factory De fa ult brings all camera setting
to factory default setting and Reset triggers a warm system reboot when the
pinhole is pushed by a needle for 2 seconds(and release afterwards).
