Canon VB150 Security Camera User Manual


 
Before Using the VB150
1
Panorama picture creation function and various settings *
The camera’s entire recordable area can be created as a panorama picture and saved. The saved
picture can then be used to easily and visually set view restrictions and presets.
Camera position preset function *
When presets such as camera angles (direction in which camera is aimed or zoom position) are
stored in advance, the camera can be controlled by simply selecting the desired preset from the
viewer. Up to 8 sets of presets can be stored.
View restriction function *
Restrictions can be applied to zoom magnifications and angle settings to prevent clients from
seeing certain camera angles. When using the VB150 to operate a fixed point camera over the
Internet, for example, it is possible to consider privacy when distributing videos ( P.1, “Request
Concerning the Disclosure of Live Pictures”).
Built-in Web server and FTP server
The VB150 has a built-in Web server. If Web page data is written onto a flash memory card (sold
separately), the VB150 will be able to distribute Web pages and videos over the Web. Since the
VB150 also has a built-in FTP server, Web page data can be sent from a remote location as a file
(FTP).
Easy setting and administration
Since the VB150 provides settings pages that utilize the Web, you can use a PC and Web
browser to make settings and perform administrative tasks remotely without going to the location
where the VB150 is installed. The VB Administration Tools can be used to create panorama
pictures, view logs, and to specify preset, view restriction, and motion detection settings.
Plenty of expandability
The VB150 includes 2 card slots, allowing a modem, wireless LAN or flash memory card to be
added to suit various applications.
Log function
The Log function lets you save log information such as errors and access conditions in a file
and send it to specific email addresses.
Strengthened security function
Passwords can be used to restrict destinations where videos are sent. (Up to 50 clients can be
registered).
Picture recording via link with external device or schedule
Still pictures can be recorded based on ON/OFF events from an external device or schedules set
in advance. Up to 30,000 still pictures can be recorded. Moreover, if VBCollector is used, still
pictures recorded by the VB150 can be automatically collected by a PC and viewed.
* Only available when VC-C50i/VC-C50iR/VC-C4/VC-C4R/NU-700 is connected to the VB150.
