g
advanced network monitoring system. From the Web browser (Internet Explorer) installed on your PC, you can operate the camera via the network in an easy-to-use manner.
The camera supports bidir ec tional audio communications, enabling you to communica te wit h people at the camera from your PC while monitor ing the surveillance video, ins tead of just hearing sounds from the camera.
The camera has 2-megapixel CMOS sensor that pr oduces clear images at ultra- high resolution. Using multi-stream video tra ns mission, it can simultaneousl y del iv er up to four video/ima
it allows video/image compression format, resolution, and other image conditions to be set as desired for each stream, you can choose the optimal v ideo/image for your application.
Installation of the H DMI option board (sold separately ) on the camera enables you to monitor surveillance video in full hi-vision.
You can freely control camera lens orientation with your PC mouse. With a 10× built-in optical z oom lens , t he ca mera offers a zoom magnification of up to 160× in conjun ction
with the electronic zoom func tion. By installing an SD memory card or external hard disk (sold separately), surveillance video can be recorded
on the camera side. The camera's motion sensor function can work in conjunction with any exter nal alarm device, facilitat ing the

Surveillance video can be viewed in H.264 format. This searches your local net wor k for cameras and allows IP
addresses to be set at once. This downloads image data recorded on the camera to your PC.
This plays back image data that has been downloaded to your PC. This allows you to simultaneously monitor multiple camera video
images on a multi-view screen. This allows you to record and play back v ideo im ages from the
camera on your PC that are distributed over the network.
