The
splash-resistant body* expands the scope of applications
by letting you install the camera outside, like on house or store
eaves.
* IPX4 equivalent
splash-resistance
The included
Power Transfer Unit supplies the camera the power through the LAN
cable. It allows you to install the camera anywhere , like on the
ceiling where no power outlet is.
*1 Proprietary Power over
Ethernet. (not compatible with IEEE802.3af.)
*2 Use a LAN cable that is no more than 30 m (98 feet 5 inches)
long to connect the camera and the power transfer unit.
*3 LAN cables are sold separately
In dark
surroundings, the built-in LED will light automatically*
when the sensor detects the movement of people or
animals.
*
Auto-illuminating darkness:approx. 40 to 100 lux. (depending on
setting circumstance)
Cameras
simultaneously send MPEG-4 images in three resolutions
(VGA*1, QVGA, and SCIF), and JPEG images in the same
three resolutions in favour motion, standard, and favour clarity
image-quality types. MPEG-4 is recommended for viewing smooth
motion images, and JPEG is recommended for recording higher quality
images.
*1 When viewing in
VGA, only MPEG-4 playback offers a maximum of 30
fps.
· MPEG-4 Visual License
This product is
licensed under the MPEG-4 Visual patent portfolio license for the
personal and noncommercial use of a consumer for (i) encoding video
in compliance with the MPEG-4 Visual Standard (“MPEG-4
Video”) and/or (ii) decoding MPEG-4 Video that was encoded by
a consumer engaged in a personal and non-commercial activity and/or
was obtained from a video provider licensed by MPEG LA to provide
MPEG-4 Video. No license is granted or shall be implied for any
other use
The sensor
detects people, animals, etc., due to temperature changes. When
detected, the image or a series of images is sent to you by
e-mail*2 or FTP data transfer*3 for easy
checking.
*1-1 The sensor detects heat by
picking up the infrared light naturally emitted from people and
animals. Certain thermal environments, sunlight, air conditioners,
heaters, etc., may cause detection errors or decrease the range of
the sensor.
*1-2 The time needed to send
images by e-mail from the camera will vary depending on the
condition of the network. When setting the camera to send e-mail
images to a cell phone, we recommend setting a longer interval
time. If the interval is set too short, more images will be
e-mailed to your cell phone and therefore your cell phone charges
may be higher.
*2 POP before SMTP authentication
and SMTP authentication (PLAIN LOGIN and CRAM-MD5) are
supported.

In this mode, the
camera captures an image only when motion is detected based on the
preset threshold or sensitivity of the camera. The image can
be stored
temporarily in the camera, or sent
to you by e-mail or FTP data transfer.
*1-1 The sensor's detection
history can also be e-mailed to you once each day at a preset
time.
*1-2 POP before SMTP
authentication and SMTP authentication (PLAIN LOGIN and CRAM-MD5)
are supported.
In accordance
with preset settings,*1 the camera will automatically
transfer images and a data log by e-mail,*2 FTP, or
HTTP. This lets you check images only when
needed, and helps prevent you from
forgetting to check them.
*1 Preset settings can include
timer, alarm, and motion detection. With JPEG connection only.
*2 POP before SMTP authentication and SMTP authentication (PLAIN,
LOGIN and CRAM-MD5) are supported.
It's so
reassuring to see your pet's happy face while you are out. A simple
mouse operation is all you need to enlarge the image, using the 10x
digital zoom, so you get a clear view of your pet's
expression.
1-1 Area is multiplied by
10x.
1-2 This feature is not available
when viewing on a cell phone.
When the subject
darkens, the camera automatically adjusts the brightness to show
you the image. You see clear, easy-to-view images even in the
dark.
1-1 The image tends to blur more
than that in standard mode when viewing a moving subject in low
light or when using the pan, tilt, or zoom function.
*1-2 Some subjects may require
additional time for focusing with the auto focus
function.
*1-3 When viewing a dark subject
in Color Night View Mode, spots of white or colored light may
appear in the image. This is a natural characteristic of the MOS
image sensor, and does not indicate a malfunction.
Still images from
the camera can be checked on any cell phone that is capable of
Internet access.
* Models that
support JPEG only.
These are the
world's first*2 network cameras with standard IPv6
support. Thanks to the dual-stack IPv4/IPv6 structure, they can be
installed both on an IPv4 network today, and on an IPv6 network in
the future. By passing the stringent requirements for Phase 2
certification, these cameras have also become even more reliable
and interoperable.
*1 To connect using IPv6, it is
necessary to subscribe to the ISP's "IPv4/IPv6 Dual-Stack" or "IPv6
over IPv4 Tunneling" service. The camera will not work in an
IPv6-only network.
*2 The world's first network cameras of their kind (as of August
2004), featuring an originally developed IPv6-ready protocol
stack.*3 This logo mark is issued by the IPv6 Ready Logo Program
Committee, an IPv6 promotion group established mainly by the IPv6
Forum.
This system
supports HTTPS data encrypted communications. By encrypting the
network camera's image and other data for network transmission, it
prevents electronic eavesdropping for greatly improved
security.
* For JPEG
only.
You can record
the moving images captured by the camera on your PC. This lets you
enjoy natural motion that isn't possible with still
pictures.
*Recording is
possible for only one camera. To record images from multiple
cameras, use the BB-HNP15.
