IV. Description of Functions
1
. IR Lamp
The latest LED Array technology is adopted for this IR High Speed Dome
Camera. LED Array is highly integration of traditional LED. Comparing with
traditional LED, it has some advantages as below.
A. Higher brightness: Since LED Array is integration of LED, the brightness
and the viewing distance are greatly increased.
B. Longer lifespan, due to the difference of the transparent material and the
heat-dispersion effect, the lifespan of the LED Array is about 10 times as the
traditional LED.
C. More evenly distributed light: The half-intensified beam angle of the
traditional LED is about 10°, well it is 10°-120° (variable angle) for LED Array,
which together with multi-angle disposal make the light evenly distributed and
can light the whole room.
For this unit, the latest 3
rd
generation IR LED Array technology is adopted,
campared with the 1
st
and 2
nd
generation IR LED Array, it has advantages as
below:
A. The light giving out efficiency is much higher. The latest technology is
adopted for the 3
rd
generation IR LED Array, under the same power
consumption, the brightness is 2.5~3 times as the previous LED Array. At
night, the visible distance is up to 150m or so.
B. The heat produced is much less when the IR lamp is turned on. Since the
light generating efficiency of the 3
rd
generation IR Led Array is much higher,
under the same power, less power is turned into heat and wasted, thus the
lifespan of the IR Lamp is much longer.
2. Whole-day (24 hours/day) monitoring
The camera module inside is IR sensitive with IR-cut. In the daytime, the
image is color and vivid. Well, at night, it turns to B&W, at the same time, the
IR lamps will be turned on, which ensures the image crisp. Therefore
whole-day (24 hours) monitoring is realized.
3. OSD Menu Operation
All the functions of the pan/tilt and the built-in camera module can be
