Description
The IXE Series is an extended platform network based camera with a built-in, Web-based viewer for live streaming to a standard Web browser
(Microsoft
®
Internet Explorer
®
or Mozilla
®
Firefox
®
). The camera features open architecture connectivity for third-party applications and is also
Endura Enabled
and compatible with Digital Sentry
®
to record, manage, configure, and view multiple live streams.
The camera supports two compression formats and more than a dozen resolutions. The two standard compression formats include H.264 and
MJPEG. The dual streams can be configured to a variety of resolutions, frame rates, and bit rates.
The IXE Series 2.1 megapixel camera is avialable in two camera styles: color or day/night. The day/night model has an mechanical IR cut filter
that increases camera sensitivity in low light situations. The camera uses a 1/3-inch imager and accommodates CS mount lenses.
The camera also includes built-in Power over Ethernet (PoE), which supplies power to the camera through the network. If PoE is not available, the
camera is prewired for 24 VAC.
BUILT-IN ANALYTICS
The IXE Series models are available with preloaded Pelco Analytic Suites or ObjectVideo
®
(OV) Analytic Suites. Analytics enhance the flexibility
and performance of the camera.
Standard in six EP network cameras is Pelco’s Camera Sabotage analytic: a behavior that detects contrast changes in the camera’s field of view.
IMPORTANT:
Endura
®
or a third-party system that supports Pelco's Analytics API system is required to configure and enable the analytic suites that are
preloaded on the camera. Refer to the specific product documentation for instructions on how to configure and enable Pelco analytics.
OV Suites require an OV ready-compliant system with OV Ready
video management system to configure and enable the OV Analytic
Suites that are preloaded on the camera. Refer to the ObjectVideo documentation for instructions on how to configure and enable OV
analytics. Pelco's Camera Sabotage analytic is not included on cameras preloaded with OV Analytic Suites.
MODELS
* To configure and enable Pelco Analytic Suites, you are required to use either a Pelco interface remote operation from an Endura 2.0 or later system, or you can
use open API communicating through Pelco’s API Guide for Video Analytics version 0.55.30 or later (available at www.Pelco.com/IP).
† To configure and enable OV Analytic Suites, an OV Ready-compliant system with an OV Ready video management system is required.
Getting Started
Before installing your camera, thoroughly familiarize yourself with the information in this section of the manual.
NOTES:
Pelco recommends connecting the camera to a network that uses a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server to address devices.
Do not use a hub in the network setup of the camera.
To ensure secure access to the IP camera, place the camera behind a firewall when it is connected to a network.
