4. Карактеристике производа

The ACTi A821 camera incorporates advanced features for reliable outdoor surveillance:

  • Резолуција од 6 мегапиксела: Delivers high-definition video for clear image capture.
  • Day & Night Functionality with IR LED: Automatically switches between color and black-and-white modes, supported by infrared LEDs for visibility in complete darkness up to 85 meters.
  • Superior Low Light Sensitivity: Achieves clear images in minimal ambient light conditions (0.003 lux in color).
  • 5к оптички зум објектив: Features an f2.7-13.5mm/F1.6 auto-focus lens, allowing for flexible field-of-view adjustments (102.1° to 34.5° horizontal).
  • Extreme WDR (150dB): Wide Dynamic Range technology ensures balanced exposure in scenes with both very bright and very dark areas.
  • H.265/H.264 Video Compression: Efficient video encoding reduces bandwidth and storage requirements.
  • 3D Digital Noise Reduction (DNR): Enhances image clarity by reducing visual noise, especially in low light.
  • Audio podrška: 2-way audio capability with line-in and line-out ports.
  • Power over Ethernet (PoE) / DC12V: Flexible power options.
  • IP68 Weatherproof and IK10 Vandal Proof: Designed to withstand harsh outdoor conditions and protect against physical impact.
  • Digital Input/Output (DI/DO): For integration with external sensors or alarms.
  • Taiwan IoT Cybersecurity Certification Level 1 (TAICS): Ensures a baseline level of cybersecurity.

5. Подешавање

5.1 Физичка инсталација

The ACTi A821 camera supports various mounting options:

  • Zidni nosač: Securely attach the camera to a vertical surface.
  • Монтажа на стуб: Utilize an appropriate bracket to attach to a pole.
  • Монтажа за привезак: Suspend the camera from a ceiling or overhang.
  • Угаони носач: Install the camera in a corner for wider coverage.

Ensure the mounting surface is strong enough to support the camera's weight (approximately 2.82 lbs) and any associated cabling. Use the provided mounting hardware or suitable alternatives for secure installation.

5.2 Ожичење и прикључци

Connect the camera using the following interfaces:

  • Ethernet Port (RJ-45 pigtail connector): Connect to your network for data transmission and Power over Ethernet (PoE). If using PoE, no separate power adapter is needed.
  • ДЦ 12В Улаз за напајање: If PoE is not available, connect a DC 12V power adapter (not included) to the camera's power input.
  • Audio Line-in/Line-out: Connect external microphone and speaker for 2-way audio communication.
  • Digital Input/Output (Terminal block): Connect external devices such as alarm sensors or relays.

After connecting, ensure all cables are properly secured and protected, especially in outdoor installations, to maintain the IP68 rating.

5.3 Почетна конфигурација

Once powered on and connected to the network, the camera can be accessed and configured using ACTi's unified software solutions. Refer to the ACTi software documentation for detailed instructions on network discovery, IP address assignment, and initial camera settings. The camera features a reset button for factory default restoration if needed.

6. Операција

6.1 Основни рад

Приступите преносу уживо са камере view и снимљено фуtage through the ACTi software or a compatible network video recorder (NVR). The camera automatically adjusts its imaging parameters based on ambient light conditions, switching between Day (color) and Night (B/W with IR) modes.

6.2 Напредне функције

  • Зумирање и фокусирање: The 5x optical zoom lens allows for remote adjustment of the field of view. The auto-focus function simplifies installation and ensures sharp images.
  • ВДР (широки динамички опсег): Enable Extreme WDR (150dB) in scenes with high contrast lighting to improve visibility in both bright and dark areas simultaneously.
  • ИР осветљење: The built-in IR LEDs provide illumination for clear black-and-white video in complete darkness. The IR working distance is up to 85 meters.
  • аудио: Utilize the 2-way audio feature for communication or environmental sound monitoring.
  • Управљање догађајима: Configure event triggers (e.g., motion detection, digital input) and define corresponding responses such as recording, notification, or activating digital outputs.
  • ViewПодешавање угла: The camera allows for pan (0°-355°), tilt (0°-75°), and rotation (0°-355°) adjustments during installation to achieve the desired coverage.

7. Одржавање

  • Чишћење: Periodically clean the camera's dome cover with a soft, damp крпом да бисте уклонили прашину, прљавштину или мрље од воде које могу да блокирају view. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
