Advanced Features
Activity Detection Function
The Activity Detection function detects changes
within an area of the picture designated by the
user.
When activity is detected, the camera
superimposes a blinking ALARM indication on
the video monitor and outputs an alarm trigger
signal to external equipment. Up to three user-
defined detection areas can be selected. The
on-screen, superimposed ALARM message is 10
seconds in duration, while the alarm trigger
signal output can be selected within the range
of 0.5 and 10 seconds.
Privacy Zone Masking
(See Fig. 2)
With the Privacy Zone Masking function,
unwanted or prohibited areas within an image
can be masked. Up to two masking blocks can
be selected in width and height. The masking
areas are selectable from either the inside or
the outside of the masking blocks.
User-friendly Operation
On-screen Set-up Menu
Camera settings can be adjusted via the on-
screen menu using the cursor keys on the side
panel of the camera. Up to two customized
settings can be stored in the memory to quickly
recall specific setup conditions.
Camera Title Indication
The SSC-DC573/DC573P/DC578P cameras also
feature a camera title indication function. To
easily identify individual cameras, users can
assign a title of up to 24 characters to each
unit, which can then be superimposed onto a
video monitor screen. The position of the
superimposed title is selectable from OFF, TOP
LEFT, TOP RIGHT, BOTTOM LEFT, or BOTTOM
RIGHT.
