    Overview Features • This camera uses a 1/4" Exmor CMOS image sensor • A title composed of up to 11 lines can be set for (approx. 0.92 million effective pixels) that supports displaying on the screen. 20 characters can be used on HD (high definition) to produce high-quality images. one line. • Using progressive scan, images with a wide dynamic • Adjustable AE response speed range can be obtained with the newly developed image signal processor (Wide Dynamic Range function). Furthermore, it is possible to automatically With consideration given environmental protection, switch to this Wide Dynamic Range function, which this module is designed to operate with low power enables you to obtain optimal images ranging from consumption and also incorporates lead-free and the dark areas of a subject to the light areas. halogen-free circuit boards. • FCB-EH3150 is equipped with a bright zoom lens with 12× optical zoom and F1.6 aperture (optical zoom + digital zoom = 144×). • Low-noise images can be obtained even in low-light environments using the Noise Reduction function. • Video signals can be output as digital and analog Y/Pb/Pr outputs. Depending on register settings, you can select from a variety of digital output methods: 720p/59.94, 720p/50, 720p/29.97, 720p/25. • An infrared (IR) Cut-Filter can be disengaged from the image path for increased sensitivity in low light environments. The ICR will automatically engage depending on the ambient light, allowing the camera to be effective in day/night environment. • VISCA is a communications protocol, which enables the camera to be controlled remotely from a host computer/controller. • Six memory locations are provided to temporally save and recall up to six sets of camera settings. • A Privacy Zone Masking function (max. 24 blocks) is available.

When the power is off, the camera is able to accept only the lowest level of Timing Chart VISCA Commands; the display and other features are turned off. As VISCA Command processing can only be carried out one time in a Vertical cycle, it takes the maximum • I/F Clear 1V cycle time for an ACK/Completion to be returned.

If the Command ACK/Completion communication Clearing the buffer can also be carried out from the time can be cut shorter than the 1V cycle time, then control application software when the power is on. every 1V cycle can receive a Command. • Address Set VISCA is a protocol, which normally supports a daisy General Commands chain of up to seven connected cameras via RS-232C interface. In such cases, the address set command can be used to assign addresses from 1 to 7 to each of the seven cameras, allowing you to control the seven cameras with the same personal computer.

The horizontal angle of view of FCB-EH3150 is The Auto Focus (AF) function automatically adjusts approximately 53.4 degrees (wide end) to 4.6 degrees the focus position to maximise the high frequency (tele end). Digital Zoom enlarges the center of the subject by expanding each image in both the vertical content of the picture in a center measurement area, and horizontal directions. When 144× zoom is used, taking into consideration the high luminance and the number of effective picture elements in each strong contrast components.
