Surveillance--PVS
(v2.3 SP2)
31.1
Introducing PVS
Have you ever wanted to see everywhere at
the same time? All traditional lenses have
blind spots, and even PTZ cameras can only
'look' in one direction at a time. The PVS
option with ImmerVision IMV1™ - 1/3" lens
eliminates blind spots, and allows viewing and
recording a full 360° field of view (360° x 180°).
Unlike a standard fish-eye lens, any portion of
the image can be selected and viewed without
any annoying 'fish-eye' distortion.
The PVS option provides:
• Multiple viewing modes for camera
viewing and video playback;
• Virtual PTZ control for viewing and
playback;
• Digital zoom control for viewing and
playback.
Tip: Using the PVS control during recording does
not affect the recording. The whole image is always
recorded.
Sample Uses:
• Jewellery store, or other location with large
product display areas.
• ATM vestibule security
• Receptionist or guard station security
31.2
Technical Information
The PVS option uses an ImmerVision 360 lens
with 1/3" sensor, CS mount, and automatic
iris.
Resolution: The PVS option provides a digital
manipulation of a panoramic image (NTSC:
640x480; PAL: 640x576). This lens is intended to
work in conjunction with other cameras with
standard lenses for visual identification of intruders.
Remote Software: With the remote station (and
IRM) software, PVS control is supported only for
playback.

access to the internet. Additional licensing for
remote PCs is not needed.

look for setup.exe on the CD.
