1 INTRODUCTION
The D12 cameras are powerful yet compact MOBOTIX network
cameras that are capable of creating high-resolution live video
streams (QXGA format: 2048x1536 pixels) with high image rates.
When showing VGA video (640x480), the camera can deliver up to 30 fps.
Even Megapixel video (1280x960) will still generate up to 10fps. The camera
transmits realtime sound from the microphone in the browser (using the ActiveX
plug-in) or in MxControlCenter.
The MOBOTIX D12 is avail-
able as SECURE or IT model
with different features. Apart
from the standard version,
the MOBOTIX D12 is offered
in two additional versions:
the D12D-180° offers a 180°
panorama view and the
D12M-CS is equipped with
the CS-Mount lens (24-
54mm) already used in the
M22M-CSVario.
Because of the low power
consumption of only 3Watts, the MOBOTIX D12 cameras feature the highest oper-
ating temperature range in the market from -30 to + 60°C (-22 to 140°F). Since
MOBOTIX cameras neither fog up nor require heating, power can be supplied via
the network cabling using standard PoE products. All models can cover wall out-
lets, thus providing for perfectly protected cabling.
Like all other MOBOTIX cameras, the D12 models have more to offer than only the
camera features. The integrated software features include a multitude of functions,
such as video motion detection, long-term recording, alarm messaging and
video IP telephony to name but a few features. Unlike in camera systems from
other manufacturers, buying and installing additional software on the computer is
thus unnecessary. Instead of
using a web browser, you
can also download the free
MxControlCenter from the
MOBOTIX website, which
allows displaying multiple
cameras on one monitor,
allows for comfortably
searching and evaluating
the alarm video clips and
provides alerting features
(including audio).
