Specifications

The VB150 Network Camera Server offers the
following additional features for enhanced
performance and expert operation.
Wireless (802.11b) Capability
Simply insert a wireless LAN card into the VB150’s
PCMCIA card slot and transmit data – without
connecting a long network cable. Wireless means
you also have the freedom to place the VB150
virtually anywhere.
Built-in Motion Detection
The VB150 can detect image changes caused by
people or objects. Based on these changes, it can
capture pictures, send data to control external
devices, or record data in a log. Various settings such
as detection
area, sensitivity,
duration, and
area ratio can be
made by using
the supplied
software.
Easy Setup
Initial setup is quick and easy by using a standard
(RJ-45) Ethernet connection.

Special Privileges
The Administration Tools software offers numerous
ways to successfully manage the VB150, VB101
and VB-C10 system. In contrast to the Viewer for
PC software or the Viewer for Java,
Administration
Viewer
delivers a superior level of control. Those
using the Administration Viewer may connect
beyond the preset service times. Once connected,
administrators do not have to adhere to the
preset time limit. Any pending control requests
are temporarily suspended. Viewing restrictions
set by the Viewing Restriction Tool can also be
ignored, giving administrators freedom to pan,
tilt, and zoom as much as they choose. They are
also informed when the status of an external
device has changed (such as a window opening).
When used with the VB150, a setup tool for the
motion detection feature is also available.
Effortless Still Image Capture
VB Collector software is used to view pictures
recorded by the VB150, VB101, and VB-C10.
With VB Collector, you can collect and display
still images based on inputs from an external
device or schedules. It monitors the Network
Server at specific times (such as dates, weeks, or
months), then downloads the recorded images
to a PC. With the VB150, images stored on a
memory card can be saved to a hard drive on a
remote computer. Since images are saved in the
PC which has the VB Collector software installed,
or a designated PC (with VB150), they can be
securely saved when the Network Camera Server
exceeds its storage capacity. The VB101 can
store up to 10,000 images (32Kb each), while
the VB150 can store up to 30,000 images
(128Kb each). Downloaded images can also be
easily viewed in the Web browser.
VB Administration Tools
Canon software provides the administrator with
unrestricted control and unprecedented ease.
