3. GENERAL DESCRIPTION4. HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
Do not direct the camera lens to the sun or strong lighting or light reflection. Exposure to direct sunlight
could cause the CCD's color filter to deteriorate, leading to image discoloration.
Do not give the camera a great shock or vibration, as this will damage the camera.
It is recommended that the camera be always used in locations where the ambient temperature ranges from
–10°C to +50°C (continuous active for operation at temperature below 0°C) and the humidity is under 90%
to ensure that no condensation is formed.
To clean, wipe with a dry soft cloth. Never use benzene, thinner or chemically processed towel as the
camera's plastic or other parts may be deformed or discolored.
When dust has settled on the camera's lens, lightly clean using a commercial camera blower or cleaning
paper.
Installing the LAN cables in close proximity to fluorescent lamps or other electrical appliances can
downgrade the picture quality. In such cases, change the wiring.
If there is a strong electric or magnetic field near the camera, such as television transmission antennas,
motors or transformers, this may distort or roll the monitor picture. In such cases, run the entire wiring route
through metal conduit tubing.
Shielded (STP) network cables must be used with this unit to ensure compliance with EMC standerds.
If the Day/Night mode is used, the subject may go out of focus when the display is switched between color
and B&W modes. In such cases, use a lens designed for visible light of up to the near-infrared region.
Install cables so as to prevent their damage and provide ample cable slack if they need to be stretched taut.
The IP address, subnet mask, and gateway IP address must be set.
Transmission to multiple receivers using the unicast function could result in a reduction in the frame rate.
When using the multicast function, the network must be compatible with the multicast system.
When a connection is established between the transmitter and multiple receivers, if the data rate requested
by each receiver differs, the transmission will be limited to the minimum set data rate.
In transmission streaming mode, data is constantly transmitted from camera to network even when no
communications are performed between the two.
Personal computers running Microsoft Windows XP are required when performing initial settings for the
network color camera.
TOA's software decoder does not support Macintosh or Unix operating systems.
3. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The N-CC2360 Network Color Camera can be connected directly to a LAN (10BASE-T/100BASE-TX). Since it
can simultaneously transmit MPEG-4 and JPEG data, smooth moving images can be monitored and high-
definition still images monitored and recorded. The N-CC2360 can transmit bi-directional sub-band ADPCM or
PCM quality voice. Its power supply features PoE compatibility in addition to 24V AC or 24V DC operation,
permitting simplified wiring work and cable savings during construction by supplying power via the network.
The supplied software decoder permits the system to be remotely monitored and easily configured on a
personal computer. Since it is equipped with a Day-Night function that increases sensitivity by automatically
switching color images to monochrome under poor lighting conditions, and a 64x Electronic Sensitivity Boost
function as well as a Wide Dynamic function, the camera enables monitoring even in dark or backlight
locations. Camera functions can be easily set, and color and brightness remotely adjusted from distant
locations using a network browser.
