Bi-Directional Audio
U
sers can connect an external microphone to these
cameras in order to pick up audio from a preferred
location. These cameras are also equipped with a
speaker output,enabling users to send an alert or
make an announcement from a remote location –
significantly expanding the possibilities of their
m
onitoring applications.
V
oice Alert
The Voice Alert function allows users to upload up to
three pre-recorded audio files to these cameras,for
playback upon an alarm trigger or on a pre-specified
time schedule.
High Level of Security
Intelligent Motion Detection
T
he built-in IMD function can trigger a variety of
a
ctions such as the storage and transfer of images or
c
an trigger an external device through its output
r
elays. False alarms caused by noise and repeated
m
otion patterns are minimized thanks to an advanced
Sony algorithm. Plus, when used in conjunction with
DEPA-enabled recorders or software,a multitude of
filter functions is available to actuate triggers based
on more specific movement.
Intelligent Object Detection
*4
These cameras can detect objects that have been
abandoned or have become stationary for a specified
duration. Up to four detection ares can be
designnated. This feature is useful for detecting
suspicious objects left in public places, or for
detecting stalled cars or accidents on the road. Like
IMD,filters can be used when configured with DEPA-
enabled products.
*4
The intelligent object detection function and the intelligent
motion detection function cannot be used simultaneously.
Sensor IN/Alarm OUT Ports
Equipped with two sensor inputs, these cameras can
receive triggers from external sensors. Two alarm
outputs can also be used to trigger other devices to
perform a variety of actions.
Pre-/Post-Alarm Image Storage
These cameras are capable of storing both pre-and
post-alarm images on 16 MB of built-in memory or
on removable storage media.
Image Transfer Using FTP/SMTP
*5
All of the pre-/post-alarm images stored at the time
of an alarm event can be transferred to an FTP server
for viewing at a later time. Also, a still image
generated at the time of an alarm event can be sent
to a designated e-mail address.
*5
All images transferred using SMTP are in JPEG format.

perational Flexibility
Selectable JPEG, MPEG-4, H.264
Compression Formats
T
hese multi-codec cameras support three compression
f
ormats, JPEG, MPEG-4,and H.264. The“industry
s
tandard”JPEG compression format can be selected
w
hen high-quality still images are preferred. MPEG-4
p
rovides clear moving images efficiently over networks
w
hen bandwidth is limited. For more efficient
compression, when bandwidth is even more limited,
the H.264 compression format,which is approximately
twice as efficient as MPEG-4, is also available.
Dual Encoding Capability
W
ith a dual encoding capability, these cameras can
g
enerate both MPEG-4 and JPEG images
s
imultaneously. For example,you can set up your
system to transfer MPEG-4 images over a WAN or an
Internet VPN, where network bandwidth is limited,
w
hile storing high-resolution JPEG images on a server
c
onfigured on the LAN.
Wireless Capability
These cameras support IEEE802.11g
*

and IEEE802.11b
compliant Wireless LAN Cards. In addition,the
optional SNCA-AN1 External Antenna can be used to
transmit wireless signals over a longer distance.
A wireless system configuration can save you time
and money during installation.
*2
When the SNCA-CFW5 (IEEE802.11g/11b Wireless LAN
Card) is used with the SNC-RX Series and SNC-CS50,the
typical transfer rate is approximately 3 Mb/s. When used
with the SNC-RZ50, the typical transfer rate is approximately
9 Mb/s when using the CF Card slot and approximately
3 Mb/s when using the PC Card slot.
“Day/Night” Function
These cameras can switch from day mode (Color)
to night mode (B/W) by replacing the camera’s
infrared cut filter with a clear filter. Users can toggle
between the two modes, manually, on a predefined
schedule, using an external sensor, or automatically in
response to surrounding light conditions. When these
cameras are in night mode, they are sensitive to
near-IR illuminators, allowing them to operate even in
zero lx

conditions.

Zero lx means absence of visible light to the naked eye.
