Scene Change Detection Pinpoints Interference
For example, if the camera has been tampered with by a manual change in its angle, removal of the lens, defocusing, or blocking the
lens with cloth
or paint, thisAlarmAlarm feature detects
the interference and sends an alarm.

540 TV lines Horizontal Resolution Captures the Details
Optimized filtering and broadband digital signal processing developed for the Super Dynamic III DSP deliver the finest details, with 540 TV lines of horizontal resolution in colour (typical) and 570 TV lines in B/W.
Automatic Switching to B/W for Night Surveillance
For optimal surveillance, day and night, the camera automatically switches to B/W mode, for greater sensitivity, when darkness falls. In daylight, it automatically switches to colour mode. Mode selection can also be set to manual operation.
