High-quality monitoring via the network

You can monitor a high-quality live image from the camera using the Web browser on the computer connected to the 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX network. The maximum frame rate is 30 FPS for the SNC-CS3N and 25 FPS for the SNC-CS3P.

Up to 50 users can view the image from one camera at the same time.

Available Web browsers

Microsoft Internet Explorer Ver. 5.5 or 6.0

(Available OS: Windows 98/ 98SE/ Me/ NT4.0/ 2000/ XP)

High-sensitivity and superior picture quality

The 1/3 type Exwave HADTM CCD offers superior picture quality – high horizontal resolution, high sensitivity, an excellent signal-to-noise and a low smear level.

Image recording on the built-in memory

You can record still images from the camera onto the camera’s built-in memory (about 8 MB). You can record a still image at the moment when a trigger by the external sensor input, built-in activity detection function or manual trigger button occurs, or still images sequentially for a determined period before and after the trigger. Periodic recording of still images is also possible.

Image transmission using an E-mail or FTP server

You can send a still image from the camera as an attachment of an E-mail or to an FTP server, at the moment when a trigger by the external sensor input, built-in activity detection function or manual trigger button occurs. You can also send still images sequentially for a determined period before and after the trigger to an FTP server, or send them periodically.

If you use the FTP client software of the computer, you can also search for and receive the still image recorded in the built-in memory.

Alarm output

The camera is equipped with two sets of alarm outputs. You can use them to control peripheral devices by synchronizing with the external sensor inputs, built-in activity detection function, manual trigger button, or timer.

Transparency-type RS-232C interface

If you connect peripheral devices to the camera via the RS-232C interface, you can control the devices from the computer via the network and receive data from these devices.

Analog video output

The analog video output allows connecting a VTR or TV monitor for local image recording and monitoring.
