AutoDome Camera Systems

Since the development of integrated high-speed dome, pan/tilt cameras, AutoDome has been synonymous with innovation, superior performance and reliability.

Bosch AutoDome systems are designed to meet your security needs. They easily integrate with our entire security product line, including Divar digital recorders and Allegiant matrix switchers. Our Unity domes, which have the same appearance as the AutoDome but contain a pre-configured fixed camera and lens combination, are the perfect complement to the AutoDome installation.

Full integration gives you a complete, easy-to-install, low-maintenance CCTV system from a single supplier.

Remote control, configuration and updates can be performed over the video cable (coax or Passive UTP) when using Bilinx compatible control and configuation devices such as the CTFID configuation tool.

The Bosch commitment to world-class support begins with a three-year warranty and easy access to technical support. Our international sales organizations are committed to meeting your product, service and training needs. More options, better quality, more support ??? only from Bosch.

Options to Explore

What to consider when choosing your AutoDome

In order to select the right AutoDome for your application, there are a number of factors to consider, including lighting conditions, mounting locations and visibility. These will dictate which features and options are necessary and which camera you should choose. The following explanations cover the major options available in the AutoDome line.

Camera Options

Day/Night

The Day/Night camera option offers the best of both worlds, producing high-quality color video during the day or when light levels are high, and then switching to monochrome and removing the infrared filter to improve IR sensitivity at night or when light conditions are low.

Color

Color cameras are the most popular camera choice for standard lighting conditions. Offering high resolution and high sensitivity, these cameras produce excellent color images for all types of security applications.

Monochrome

Monochrome cameras are used when the ultimate sensitivity or higher resolution is required. Since monochrome cameras are more sensitive to infrared radiation, they can be used in lighting conditions too dark for a color camera.

Zoom Range

The zoom range defines how close you can get to the subject that you are watching. A 16x optical zoom is ideal for general viewing indoors, while 18x and 26x optical zoom allows you to get in really close while maintaining full details. When you need to get even closer, digital zoom extends the range even further.

Housing Options

Pendant housings are for indoor or outdoor applications. Suspended in-ceiling housings are for indoor applications only. Pressurized housing for special environments.

For more information visit www.autodome.com 04

Bubble Options

All AutoDomes are available with either a clear or a tinted bubble. The clear bubble offers maximum sensitivity by allowing as much light through as possible. The tinted bubble offers covertness by making it difficult to see the camera from the outside. In addition to these standard bubble types, there are several other colored bubbles that can be purchased separately. Each offers varying levels of covertness, aesthetics and sensitivity.

We also offer the exclusive rugged bubble to protect your AutoDome camera from vandalism. Designed to meet stringent strength standards without compromising optical clarity, the rugged bubble can withstand impact equivalent to a 10-pound (4.536 kilograms) weight dropped from a height of 10 feet (3.048 meters).

* Available in standard and rugged bubble.

Mounting Options

The following photos show the various mounting options available for indoor and outdoor systems. Mounting choices are specified within the order number for each individual EnviroDome, AutoDome or BasicDome unit.

Fiber Optics

Fiber optics is the preferred transmission medium to bridge long distances in hostile electromagnetic environ- ments such as subways and railways. AutoDome and EnviroDome systems are available with a bi-directional fiber transceiver, which allows both video and control signals to be transmitted over a single fiber.

Bosch IP Network Video Solution

AutoDomes seamlessly integrate into your IP network infrastructure using the Bosch IP Network video products. Control, view and configure your cameras from anywhere in the world over your network.

Address Each AutoDome has a numerical address in the control system in which it is located. This allows the appropriate dome to be operated. The address may be set manually on the unit via dip switches or remotely (see Fast Address).

AutoDome Fully integrated, high speed, pan/tilt camera built into a protective dome housing allowing full 360?? coverage of the scene.

AutoTrack A patented technology that integrates motion detection into the camera allowing tracking of object and zooming in to optimize size and perspective.

Auto Focus The lens continuously adjusts to the correct focus automatically for the sharpest picture.

AutoIris The lens iris opening is automatically adjusted to allow the correct illumination of the camera sensor.

AutoPan The camera pans continuously between right and left limit settings.

AutoPivot As the camera tilts through the vertical position, the camera is rotated to maintain the correct orientation of the image.

AutoPlayback This function records the sequence of movements of the AutoDome (P/T/Z) for later playback allowing a set pattern to be repeated automatically. This function is often called Guard Tour.

AutoScaling As the camera zooms in to increase the size of objects on the monitor screen, the pan and tilt speeds are reduced so that the relative speed on the screen remains constant for similar joystick control positions.

BasicDome Bosch solution for an economical dome package that incorporates a vast amount of the AutoDome features into a modular, discrete package.

Bilinx A communications format that allows remote control, configuration and updates to be performed over the video cable (Coax or Passive UTP)

Bi-Phase Pan/Tilt/Zoom protocol for Bosch products.

Day/Night An AutoDome that has normal color operation in situations where there is sufficient illumination (day conditions), but where the sensitivity can be increased when there is little light available (night conditions). This is achieved by removing the infrared cut filter used for good color rendition and/or integrating a number of frames to increase the signal to the noise ration of the camera.

EnviroDome AutoDome with environmental protection that allows it to be used outdoors in almost any climate.

Fast Address A system for setting the address of the AutoDome remotely from the control system.

Preset Tour A sequence of preset shots combined to provide a pre-programmed tour of the area covered by an AutoDome camera.

Guard Tour Allows recorded tours with a combined duration of 15 minutes. Recorded tours consist of control commands and can be played back as needed. All camera position information is stored for maximum flexibility (including pan, tilt, zoom, etc.).

IP 66 The IP code (Ingress Protection) indicates the degree of protection provided by enclosures for electrical equipment. The first number indicates protection of internal equipment against the ingress of solid foreign objects. The second number indicates protection of internal equipment against harmful ingress of water. Higher digits refer to higher levels of protection. See also NEMA rating.

NEMA rating (National Electric Manufacturers Association) Specification standards in reference to the operating environment for a variety of electrical devices.

Pan Camera movement in the horizontal direction.

Pre-Position A pre-selected and stored combination of pan, tilt and zoom positions that allow a set view to be recalled. Also known as Preset Shot.

Pressurized Dry Nitrogen Housing A housing for outdoor applications that protects against smog, humidity, dirt and dust.

Privacy Masking The ability to mask out a specific area to prevent it being viewed.

RS232/485 A communication interface for third party control and firmware upgrades to the AutoDome products.

Sector Blanking The ability to blank out video in any of the 16 pan sectors.

Slow Shutter With this option the camera can reduce the shutter speed to as little as one second, thus increasing the sensitivity to nearly 0.002 lux in select models. Comes as a standard feature on all color and day/night EnviroDomes.

Spot Focus Activates Auto Focus for three seconds after camera movement.

Tilt Camera movement in the vertical direction.

Zoom Changing the effective focal length to allow different fields of view to fill the picture area. Zoom can be optical, where the lens is adjusted, or digital, where a portion of the view is magnified electronically.
