Bosch LTC 0485/61 1/3-inch NightSense Color Box Camera w/110VAC

Description

LTC 0485 Series Dinion XF Color Camera
The LTC 0485 Series of High Performance 1/3-inch Digital CCD Color Cameras create the best possible image, even under the most difficult light and scene conditions. Based on unique 15-bit digital video processing technology and employing XF-Dynamic, these cameras provide excellent sensitivity with extended dynamic range. By employing the best 1/3– inch CCD available, advanced front end processing, combined with the outstanding Dinion DSP, the cameras achieve an astonishing sensitivity, providing better color images in low light situations and sharper daytime images. Intelligent White balance algorithms, supported by a White Balance Hold function and even full manual white balance, ensure the most accurate color reproduction possible. All Dinion cameras are supplied ready to operate. Simply attach and focus the lens, and connect power to provide optimal pictures under virtually all scene conditions. No tools are required for back focus and power connection. For extra challenging situations where fine tuning or special settings are required, the camera parameters can be individually set using the control buttons on the side of the camera and On-screen Display (OSD). Also, to aid installation, the camera automatically detects the lens type, and using the Lens Wizard ensures accurate (back) focusing for perfectly sharp pictures at all times.
Features
XF-Dynamic
Extended dynamic range is brought to a new level on the LTC 0485 Series Camera by XF-Dynamic technology. XF-Dynamic automatically processes the highly accurate 15-bit digital signal to optimally capture the detail in both the highlight and lowlight areas of the scene simultaneously, to maximize the information visible in the picture.
Bilinx Technology
The LTC 0485 series cameras incorporate Bilinx. Bilinx is a bidirectional communication capability embedded in the video signal of all Bosch Dinion cameras. With Bilinx technicians can check status, change camera settings and even update firmware from virtually anywhere along the video cable. Bilinx reduces service and installation time, provides for more accurate setup and adjustment, and improves overall performance. In addition, Bilinx uses the standard video cable to transmit alarm and status messages, providing superior performance without additional installation steps.
Video Motion Detection
The built-in video motion detector allows you to select up to four fully programmable areas with individual thresholds. The global scene change detector minimizes false alarms caused by sudden lighting condition changes, such as switching on or off the indoor or security lighting. When motion is detected alarms may be displayed in the video signal, the output relay can be closed in addition to alarm message transmission on Bilinx.
Auto Black
The automatic black level feature, enhances contrast by removing veiling glare from the picture or when contrast is reduced by fog or mist.
Default Shutter
When viewing moving objects a fast shutter speed is required. When using a fast shutter speed the lens opening or gain control needs to be increased to maintain the video signal. The camera sensitivity is limited by the fast shutter speed. The default shutter setting of the LTC 0485 offers the best of all worlds, fast shutter speed as long as there is sufficient light, however as the light level falls, when other adjustments have been exhausted, the shutter reverts to the standard setting maintaining the cameras excellent sensitivity.
Back Light Compensation (BLC)
Offering a fully programmable BLC area of interest, and a variable BLC level, the camera can be easily set up for even the most challenging entrance applications.
Lens Wizard
The LTC 0485 Series automatically detects the type of lens installed. The Lens Wizard will focus the lens at the maximum lens opening, to ensure that focus is maintained throughout the entire 24–hour day/night cycle. No special tools or filters are required.
Programmable Modes
The camera supports 3 independent operating modes. The 3 modes are preprogrammed for typical applications, but are fully programmable for individual situations. Switching between modes is easy via Bilinx or the external alarm input.
NightSense
The LTC 0485 cameras feature NightSense. With NightSense the sensitivity is increased by 9 dB in monochrome mode. NighSense can be automatically activated in low light situations, or remotely using Bilinx.
SensUp
By increasing the integration time on the CCD up to 10 times, the effective sensitivity is dramatically enhanced, especially useful where there is no artificial lighting and you rely on the moon, stars and scattered radiation.
