User Manual
FAQ
What is the difference between this bi-spectrum camera and traditional security cameras?
This Hikvision HeatPro camera combines both visible light (CMOS sensor) and thermal imaging (vanadium oxide uncooled focal plane array) technologies in a single unit. Traditional cameras rely solely on visible light, which can be limited in complete darkness or adverse weather. The thermal imaging component detects heat signatures, allowing the camera to identify subjects based on temperature differences rather than visible light, providing reliable monitoring in challenging conditions where conventional cameras might fail.
How far does the night vision capability extend?
The infrared night vision illuminates subjects up to 49.21 feet (15 meters) in complete darkness. This measurement represents the effective range for the visible light imaging with infrared illumination. The thermal imaging component operates independently of visible light and can detect heat signatures beyond this range, though specific detection distances for thermal imaging depend on environmental factors and target characteristics.
What video resolutions does this camera support?
The camera captures visible light video at up to 2688 x 1520 resolution, which exceeds standard 1080p HD. The thermal imaging component operates at 1280 x 720 resolution. Both imaging systems support H.265, H.264, and MJPEG compression formats, with the camera capable of recording at 30 frames per second for smooth motion capture in surveillance applications.
Can this camera be used outdoors in extreme weather?
Yes, with an IP66 ingress protection rating, this camera is designed for outdoor deployment. The IP66 certification indicates complete protection against dust ingress and resistance to powerful water jets from any direction. The operating temperature range spans from -40°F to 149°F (-40°C to 65°C), and it tolerates up to 95% humidity, making it suitable for installation in harsh environmental conditions including extreme cold, heat, and high moisture environments.
What power options are available for this network camera?
The camera supports both 12V DC direct power and IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE). The PoE capability allows the camera to receive both data connectivity and electrical power through a single Ethernet cable, simplifying installation by eliminating the need for separate power wiring. This flexibility enables deployment in locations where direct power access might be challenging or where cable management is a priority.
What storage options does this camera support for video recording?
The camera includes local storage capability through a memory card slot, typically supporting SD cards for on-device recording. This provides backup storage in case of network interruptions or as supplementary storage to network video recorder systems. The camera also supports remote management, allowing integration with centralized surveillance systems that may include network-attached storage, cloud storage, or dedicated network video recorders for comprehensive video management.
What storage is included?
The system includes Memory Card of storage for applications, files, and everyday business data.
