18AXIS 231D+/232D+ - Configuring the Network Dome Camera

IR cut filter ON and OFF, according to the current lighting conditions. This is only possible when the iris is set to Auto Iris, and the exposure control is set to Automatic.

•Wide dynamic range - Corrects the exposure when the contrast is extreme between light and dark in an image. Test the different levels to find the one that works best of your light conditions.

•Backlight compensation - this setting is used to make the subject appear clearer, for example, against a bright background.

Image Settings

•Auto focus enabled (default setting).

•Sensitivity - sets the speed of the auto focus. High is used when focusing on objects that move frequently. Low improves the stability of the focus.

Note: In certain situations, the white balancing system will not operate effectively. Problems may occur if the image contains no white color at all, or if the dominant color is not white. In these circumstances, the white balance may incorrectly be based on another visible color in the image, and colors may become dis- torted. A pale background picture with reddish or blue foreground objects is very symptomatic of this con- dition. In such cases it is recommended that a fixed white balance setting is selected.

MPEG-4 Settings

Here you can adjust the MPEG-4 settings and for controlling the video bit rate. The MPEG-4 standard provides many different coding tools for various applications in different situations. As most MPEG-4 clients do not support all of these tools, it is usual to instead define and use subsets for different clients or groups of clients. These settings allow you to define the type of viewing client to use.

Adjusting the maximum bit rate and setting it to variable or constant is a good way of controlling the bandwidth used by the MPEG-4 video stream.

MJPEG

In some situations the image size may get quite large due to low light or complex scenery. Adjusting the maximum frame size is a good way of controlling the bandwidth and storage used by the MJPEG video stream in these situations. Leaving the frame size at Unlimited will provide consistently good image quality at the expense of increased bandwidth and storage usage during low light. Limiting the frame size will prevent excessive bandwidth and storage usage, but image quality will suffer. To prevent increase in bandwidth and storage usage, the maximum frame size should be set to an optimal amount.

231D+, 232d+ specifications

Axis Communications, a leading provider of IP security solutions, offers a range of high-performance cameras designed for various surveillance applications. Among their products, the Axis 232D+ and Axis 231D+ stand out for their robust features and advanced technologies, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments.

The Axis 232D+ is a high-speed dome camera that delivers exceptional video quality, thanks to its 1/4-inch progressive scan CCD sensor. It offers a resolution of 704x480 pixels and can capture incredibly detailed images at up to 30 frames per second. With its pan/tilt functionality, the 232D+ can cover a wide field of view, allowing for extensive monitoring areas while maintaining high precision and responsiveness.

In addition to its impressive image quality, the Axis 232D+ features advanced digital zoom capabilities, enabling users to zoom into specific areas without significant loss of detail. The camera is equipped with a powerful infrared capability, allowing it to capture images in low-light conditions effectively. This makes it an ideal choice for 24/7 surveillance in all lighting scenarios.

On the other hand, the Axis 231D+ offers similar high-quality video performance but introduces some distinctive features. It also utilizes a 1/4-inch progressive scan CCD sensor and supports a wide dynamic range (WDR) for improved image quality in challenging lighting conditions. The 231D+ is designed for easy installation and integration into existing systems, making it a versatile option for various surveillance needs.

Both models leverage Axis' digital PTZ technology, providing users with the flexibility to pan, tilt, and zoom remotely via an intuitive web interface. This user-friendly aspect simplifies monitoring and allows quicker responses to incidents when they arise.

Furthermore, both the Axis 232D+ and 231D+ support Power over Ethernet (PoE), eliminating the need for separate power cables and simplifying installation, especially in hard-to-reach locations.

In conclusion, the Axis 232D+ and 231D+ represent Axis Communications’ commitment to delivering high-quality, versatile surveillance solutions that meet the demands of modern security challenges. Their advanced imaging technologies, robust features, and user-friendly design make them noteworthy additions to any security setup. Whether it's for large outdoor areas or indoor environments requiring vigilant monitoring, these cameras provide the performance and reliability critical for comprehensive security.
