Features

High-quality monitoring via the network
You can monitor a high-quality live image from the
camera using the Web browser on a computer connected
to a 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX network. The
maximum frame rate is 30 fps for SNC-RX550N and 25
fps for SNC-RX550P.
Up to 20 users can view an image from one camera at the
same time.
The camera supports JPEG and MPEG4 image modes
(video codecs) and can operate in either the "Single
codec" or "Dual codec" mode. The "Single codec"
mode allows monitoring in one of the two video codecs,
and the "Dual codec" mode allows monitoring in JPEG
and MPEG4 simultaneously.

mechanism and high magnification auto-
focus zoom lens
The camera is provided with a high-speed (300°
rotation/second) pan/tilt mechanism, which allows 360°

Image transmission using an e-mail or
FTP
You can send a still image from the camera as an e-mail

an external sensor input, built-in object detection
function or manual trigger button. You can also send still
images sequentially for a determined period before and
after the trigger to an FTP server, or send them
periodically.

programs composed from the preset positions. You can
activate the preset positions by synchronizing them with
an external sensor input or built-in object detection
function.
Intelligent object detection function
The camera is provided an intelligent object detection
function to watch images. This function combines
"Moving object detection" that detects moving objects
in camera images with "Unattended object detection"

The camera is equipped with two sets of alarm outputs.
You can use the alarms to control peripheral devices by

Clicking on a desired point in the viewer allows you to
pan and tilt the camera in the direction of that point.
