ICD-879 [NTSC] 1/2″ High Resolution and High Performance True Day/Night Camera

ICD-879 : [NTSC] 1/2″ High Resolution and High Performance True Day/Night Camera

Model ICD-879 is the latest addition to Ikegami’s renowned stable of high sensitivity TV cameras which allow wider light spectrum coverage to the near infra-red spectrum to provide clear picture reproduction in very low light conditions. The ICD-879 series has a true Day/Night change-over function with well-designed electronically controlled moving filter system.
This latest model, also, comes equipped with an improved CCD sensor providing higher resolution of amazing 540TVL horizontal resolution in colour mode and 570TVL horizontal resolution in monochrome mode, and the ICD-879 series inherits various user friendly facilities such as local and RS-485 remote camera setup and adjustment capability, intelligent sensing area spot management BLC function, various modes selection in Auto White balancing including wider spectrum coverage ATW-1 and ATW-2, different modes of AGC control, Privacy Masking Facility, CRT or LCD display optimum monitoring control and electronic shutter function, and these are enhanced by low noise, improved -126dB low vertical smear suppression performance. These variable and precise functions make the ICD-879 series the ideal tool for single camera to large scale integrated system applications with I-LAN* RS-485 remote control giving sophisticated visual information management.

True Day/Night Function
Well designed moving IR cut filter system, inter-connected with the Automatic Gain Control system makes the ICD-879 series the ideal Day and Night TV camera, capable of providing a high quality crisp picture reproduction with 570TVL horizontal resolution under ultra low light conditions down to an amazing 0.011lux minimum scene illumination performance.

Privacy Screen Masking
The ICD-879 series comes with an 8 zone privacy masking function, managed by the rear control panel locally, or remotely via I-LAN over RS-485 link. Each zone has a minimum 8 pixel square sized area. This provides pin-point accuracy to cover sensitive areas that need to remain unseen.

Remote and Local Setup Functions
Camera ID numbering, Day/Night Change-over and thresh hold control, Auto White Balance, Detail Correction Management, Sync System Selection, Electronic Sensitivity and Shutter controls, BLC On Off and Spot area setting, etc. All these are controllable, either locally via the camera rear panel switch array, or remotely via I-LAN software over RS-485 link. This makes the ICD-879 series the ideal tool for integrated system applications were high quality visual information management is required.

Intelligent BLC-Back Light Compensation
Well-designed back light compensation facility allows the user to designate two desired areas in a screen to provide compensation for strong back light conditions, resulting in an optimum balanced clear picture reproduction.

High Sensitivity and Low Smear and Noise
Improved interline transfer CCD performance allows a much wider sensitivity from the visible to the near infra-red spectrums to provide better picture reproduction under low light conditions. The improved DSP, digital signal processing circuit permits good Signal-to-Noise ratio with good performance of -126dB(ICD-879P/879) vertical pixel overload protection to suppress the vertical smear that occurs with intense strong light sources.

Electronic Sensitivity Control
As the ICD-879P/879 is equipped with an electronic sensitivity control function of up to 32 times, it covers the scene which requires high sensitivity.
