The SNC-RZ30P is equipped with a 100Base-TX (RJ-45) interface and
has a web server capability with an assignable IP address. These fea-
tures, coupled with the camera’s built-in software, allow the user to
control the unit and view live images over a network. All that is required
is a PC running a standard web browser. And, by installing the option-
al IMZ-RS Series Intelligent Monitoring Software, up to 32 cameras can
be simultaneously monitored, recorded and controlled from a single
PC or multiple clients.

Matching high-quality images with available network
The SNC-RZ30P, which uses the industry-standard JPEG compres-
sion format, has a number of selectable parameters that make it easy
to match the quality of the image to your bandwidth requirements. For
example it has a compression ratio selectable between 1/5 and 1/60.
Also, with a maximum setting of 25 fps, the frame rate can either be
set manually at a fixed frame rate, or at a variable frame rate based on
the bandwidth available. Furthermore, the image resolution can be
selected from a choice of 736 x 544, 640 x 480, 320 x 240 or 160 x
120. With a high-speed network connection, you can obtain high-
quality video images, and with a limited bandwidth connection, you
can set the parameters so that your images are still very clear with no
image break-up.

Advanced image handling
Because the SNC-RZ30P supports both FTP and SMTP protocols,
JPEG still images can be transferred, as required, either to an FTP
server or sent to a specified e-mail address as a JPEG attachment.
The FTP server can either be located remotely or on the SNC-RZ30P
using its embedded FTP server capability. You can view the sequen-
tial stored alarm images through the optionally-added HTML file using
a general browser (Digest Viewer).

It couldn’t be simpler to locate almost any position in the viewable area
surrounding the SNC-RZ30P thanks to its high-speed
PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) capability. Of all the PTZ-capable network
cameras currently available, the SNC-RZ30P has one of the widest
ranges in its class: a pan range of 340°, a tilt range of 115°, plus an
excellent 25 x optical / 300 x digital zoom capability. The full 340° pan
range can be covered in 2 seconds, and the -90° to +25° tilt range can
be covered in 1.5 seconds. In addition to the wide range of motion and
high-speed movements, the SNC-RZ30P incorporates gearless
direct-drive motors that ensure exceptionally quiet operation.

Unattended operation
The SNC-RZ30P has a built-in activity detection function that makes it
easy to keep track of activity on site, even when not actively monitoring.
This can be set to trigger an alarm or a switch. For example, movement
in the field-of-view of the camera can set off an audible alarm or turn on
a lamp. What’s more, the SNC-RZ30P can be configured with up to
three external sensors for expanded functionality. Any or all of these
sensors can be set to trigger an alarm, or to send a signal to a solenoid
to perform functions such as locking a door. Other functions can also
be performed such as sending the image that was captured at the time
the alarm was triggered to an e-mail address or to an FTP server.

Also, because the SNC-RZ30P has 8 MB of RAM designated as a
buffer and a high-speed data-transfer capability of up to 25 fps,
hundreds of images from before and after the alarm was triggered can
be buffered in the RAM, or optional PC memory card and transferred.
