Metal Frame
for Easy Installation
The VK-S214R/VK-S214ER come
in the compact metal frame so you
can install it in the casing of your
choice. The solid metal frame allows
the camera to track an object with
reliability.
Built-In
Optical Power Zoom Lens
The VK-S214R/VK-S214ER’s built-
in 22x optical zoom lens is highly reli-
able and offers auto focus, auto iris and
zoom functions, letting the user moni-
tor a scene from any desired angle of
view. In conjunction with 12x digital
zoom, the total zoom ratio is 264x.
High Resolution
The chassis is equipped with a high-
sensitivity, high-resolution 1/4-inch
CCD pickup featuring approximately
380,000 (VK-S214R) / 440,000 (VK-
S214ER) effective pixels. Thanks to a
high 470 (VK-S214R) / 460 (VK-S214ER)
TV-lines horizontal resolution, picked-
up images are reproduced with detail
and clarity.
AI (Artificial Intelligence)
Digital Signal Processing
Control
AI Auto Iris: Adjusts iris so that
video output is kept at a fixed level,
even if surrounding illumination chan-
ges.
AI Auto White Balance: Provides
natural color reproduction according
to ambient lighting.
Backlight Compensation
You can control the video signal
level for backlight compensation.
Remote Control through
RS-232C
Remote operations are possible
via the RS-232C, which allows control
of the camera’s focus, iris and zoom.
2H Vertical Enhancer
Vertical edges are digitally en-
hanced to make recorded images
clear and stable — useful when moni-
toring a moving object.
The VK-S214R/VK-S214ER are compact chassis-type CCTV cameras designed for easy integration into
surveillance systems. A built-in zoom lens permits the user to monitor the scene from variable viewing
angles — ranging from wide to telephoto. And remote focus, iris and zoom control are possible with the
RS-232C connection. These features plus a 1/4-inch high resolution color CCD pickup make the
VK-S214R/VK-S214ER suitable for surveillance situations.
