• Detail enhancement
• Bilinx communication for remote set-up and control
• Easy to install
VBN-5085 Description
The DINION 5000 family combines high resolution with high dynamic range in a
true day/night analogue camera. The high performance 960H 1/3-inch CCD sensor
with a resolution of 720TVL, the high dynamic range engine, and the advanced
image processing technology combine together to provide a detailed image with
outstanding accuracy in colour reproduction even under harsh lighting
conditions. True day/night performance ensures the highest image quality
possible at any time, day or night. The camera is easy to install and ready to
use, and offers the best solution for demanding scene conditions.
VBN-5085 System overview
The camera is supplied ready to operate – simply attach the lens, connect video
and then power. Six distinct pre-programmed operational modes are stored in the
camera. Recall the mode that suits your application for optimized performance.
The lens wizard ensures accurate back-focusing for perfectly sharp pictures at
all times. For especially challenging situations where fine tuning or special
settings are required, the camera parameters can be individually set using the
control buttons on the side of the camera and an Onscreen Display (OSD).
VBN-5085 Functions
Detail in extreme lighting
In harsh lighting, the difference between the brightest and the darkest parts of
a scene can be extreme. To produce a clear picture in these conditions, the CCD
sensor in the camera generates two images; one long exposure to resolve details
in the scene’s darkest areas, and one short exposure to resolve details in the
scene’s brightest areas. The advanced image processing technology in the camera
combines these dual shutter images, mixing pixels from each exposure to produce
the most detailed image possible. The superior wide dynamic range for all
lighting conditions reveals details previously unseen.
Day/Night mode
The day/night mode provides enhanced night viewing by increasing the IR
sensitivity. The IR filter can switch from colour to monochrome automatically by
either sensing the illumination level or via the alarm input. The filter can be
switched manually via the alarm input, through the camera menu or via the Bilinx
coaxial control interface. An internal through-the-lens IR detector enhances the
monochrome mode stability, as it prevents reverting to the colour mode when IR
illumination is dominant. IR contrast is also measured and used to handle
reflected IR light in outdoor scenes.
Ease of installation
The lens wizard helps focus the lens at the maximum opening to ensure proper
back-focus is maintained throughout the 24-hour cycle. No special tools or
filters are required.
Six independent, pre-programmed operating modes support typical applications,
but are fully programmable for individual situations. Switching between modes is
easy via Bilinx or the external alarm input.
Several other features are available that make installation easy:
• | Power and alarm cable connectors which can be removed even when the camera is mounted. |
• | A built-in test pattern generator produces signals to test and fault-find cables. |
• | A multi-language On-Screen Display (OSD). |
• | A high efficiency power supply improves maximum operating temperature. |
Cable compensation is used to avoid the need for amplifiers in long distance
coaxial connections up to 1000 m (3000 ft). It can prevent the image quality
degradation caused by signal losses from long cable lengths.
Bilinx technology
Bilinx is a bidirectional communication capability embedded in the video signal
of this camera. Installers can check status, change camera settings and even
update firmware from virtually anywhere along the video cable. Bilinx reduces
service and installation time, provides for more accurate set-up and adjustment,
and improves overall performance. In addition, Bilinx uses the standard video
cable to transmit alarm and status messages, providing superior performance
without additional installation steps.
Ideal picture performance
There are many settings available to help fine-tune the picture performance to
match your installation environment. These include:
• | Smart BLC – automatically and dynamically compensates for strong backlight |
• | Peak White Invert – reduces glare from highlight areas |
• | Contrast and sharpness – enhance details in bright or misty scenes |
• | SensUp – sensitivity is dramatically enhanced by a factor of 10 |
• | Default shutter – improves the motion performance in auto exposure mode |
• | Dynamic noise reduction – dynamically reduces noise in the picture |
Privacy masking
Fifteen different privacy zones allow specific parts of a scene to be blocked.
Pre-program any part of the scene to be masked.
Video Motion Detection
The built-in video motion detector allows you to select four programmable areas
with sensitivity thresholds. When motion is detected, alarms can be displayed in
the video signal, the output relay can be closed or an alarm message can be
transmitted via Bilinx.
Typical applications:
• Entrance foyer or lobby with glare
• Outdoor perimeters
– low light
– IR light
• Traffic monitoring
– highway
– traffic intersections
– emergency response coordination
• Tunnels
• Car parks (outdoor)
• Restricted access locations such as:
– prisons
– ports / freight terminals
– military facilities
– border control and homeland
• Casino and gambling centres
