34AXIS 233D - Dome Configuration

Guard Tour

Aguard tour displays preset positions, one-by-one, in a pre-determined order or at random, and for configurable time periods. Once a preset position has been set and added to the guard tour, the following settings can be made:

Move Speed - sets the speed of the Pan/Tilt movements to the preset position.

View Time in seconds or minutes.

View Order (or Random).

OSDI Zones

On-screen Direction Indicator (OSDI) Zones can be included in the overlay text to aid the user to navigate the camera. Each OSDI Zone is set up with coordinates and a descriptive name.

The camera uses the coordinates of the center of the image to set the lower left and upper right zone areas. First navigate to where you would like the lowermost left point of the OSDI Zone to be located. By clicking the Get button the coordinates are set. Proceed to where the upper right point of the zone should be located and click its Get button. Give the zone a descriptive name and click Ok. See Overlay Settings, on page 19, for information about including the name of the OSDI Zone in the overlay text.

Advanced

Limits

Define the pan, tilt, zoom and focus limits for the AXIS 233D. Movements to the left and right, up and down, can be restricted to narrow the area under surveillance. The near focus limit can be set to avoid focusing on objects too close to the camera.

Note: Once a limit has been saved, this position cannot be exceeded by the AXIS 233D unless the values have been reset and saved to a greater value first (reset the default values of the mechanical restrictions).

Move speed sets the speed of the camera's Pan/Tilt movements. The default setting is maximum speed.

Controls

Shortcut command buttons can be created to provide direct access to various commands provided by the AXIS 233D. The buttons are then displayed in the PTZ Panel which is available on the Live View page by clicking Ctrl Panel (see page 10). Axis’ VAPIX® API allows you to create your own commands.

Control Queue

The administrator can set up a queue for the PTZ controllers. Once set up, the PTZ Control Queue buttons appear on the Live View page offering one viewer exclusive control for a limited amount of time. Other users will be placed in the queue.

233D specifications

Axis Communications, a pioneer in the field of network video solutions, has continually pushed the envelope in surveillance technology with its innovative products. Among its esteemed offerings, the Axis 233D stands out as a formidable tool for both security professionals and organizations seeking comprehensive monitoring solutions.

The Axis 233D is a high-performance PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) network camera designed for demanding surveillance environments. One of its main features is the ability to provide high-resolution video streaming at 30 frames per second, ensuring that users can capture clear and detailed images, even in dynamic situations. This camera supports a resolution of up to 2 megapixels, which enhances its ability to deliver crisp visuals, crucial for identifying individuals and objects in the monitored areas.

Equipped with advanced pan, tilt, and zoom capabilities, the Axis 233D can cover expansive areas with ease. The camera offers a 360-degree endless rotation for pan movements and a wide field of view, making it ideal for large spaces like parking lots, shopping centers, and public transport stations. The powerful zoom lens allows operators to focus on specific subjects from a distance, which is essential in security monitoring.

The Axis 233D also employs robust technologies to ensure excellent performance in various lighting conditions. With integrated WDR (Wide Dynamic Range), this camera can balance scenes with significant contrasts in lighting, ensuring that both bright and dark areas are clearly visible. Additionally, features like digital noise reduction contribute to clearer images in low-light situations, making it versatile for day and night operation.

Another characteristic that sets the Axis 233D apart is its network functionality. This camera supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), simplifying installation as it requires only a single Ethernet cable for both power and data transfer. It also leverages Axis' advanced video compression technologies, including H.264, which optimizes bandwidth usage while maintaining high image quality.

Furthermore, the Axis 233D is embedded with intelligent video analytics, enabling proactive monitoring. Functions such as motion detection and object tracking help users respond quickly to potential security threats. This capability is critical in real-time environments where each moment counts.

In summary, the Axis Communications 233D is a high-end surveillance solution that marries advanced technology with user-friendly features. With its PTZ functionalities, exceptional image quality, robust performance in varying light conditions, and intelligent analytics, it serves as an indispensable asset for security professionals looking to enhance their surveillance systems effectively. As security needs continue to evolve, the Axis 233D remains at the forefront of addressing those challenges.
