Observe that the setting sun in the backlit image on the left makes it difficult to discern any
objects of interest; the thermal image on the right is not affected by the bright sun and therefore
provides detail and contrast.
The SR-Series is designed to be a drop-in replacement for current systems employing daylight
cameras. Initial setup of the system includes connecting power supply leads for the input power
and a BNC cable for monitoring output video. Optionally, a serial cable can be connected to
allow control of the camera settings and focus (focus control available on SR-100 and SR-100P
only, all other cameras are fixed focus).
2.2 Serial Remote Control
The SR-Series cameras have serial communication leads to connect for control of camera focus
and other features. Each camera is pre-configured at the factory to support either RS-232 or
RS-422 protocol (the serial protocol is not user-configurable). Users can control the camera
using devices that support the Pelco® D protocol
interface.
