CC5MPX Digital Camera

1. Introduction

Figure 1-1 CC5MPX Camera

The CC5PMX Series digital network cameras are designed to meet the stringent

operational requirements necessary for remote battery powered installations while

producing images of up to 5 megapixels. Both cameras can operate over a wide

temperature range and have several advanced power saving modes to suit a variety

of needs.

CC5MPX will be used to refer to the series throughout the manual,

unless otherwise specified.

The CC5MPX incorporates an integrated rugged environmental enclosure to reduce

cost and installation time. Communication options include Ethernet, RS-232, and

RS-485. The CC5MPX is fully web-enabled with FTP and Email capabilities.

Campbell Scientific’s PakBus protocol is supported by the CC5MPX for

integration with Campbell Scientific dataloggers. When required, an optional lens

defroster is available.

The camera contains an onboard SD memory card that can turn the camera into a

powerful image and video logger. The onboard memory card enables the CC5MPX

to archive images and video internally.

The CC5MPX can operate in a stand-alone mode with image acquisitions triggered

by the camera’s own precision real time clock. Image and video acquisitions can

also be triggered by events through an external signal or motion detection.
