Almost jokingly, I then showed her the SecurityProbe with camera capabilities and she loved the thought of being able to see the dogs. Also, with several sensor ports, she could add smoke, water and other sensors, if she discovers a need in the future. Mostly, the cameras were a huge hit. “I can see if they are all huddled up or walking around and being active,” she said.

It’s nice to sell outside of the data room temperature monitoring market.

Typical applications for our camera solutions include:

• hallway or cashier surveillance
• rooftop monitoring
• heightened data center security

Below is a screenshot from our web site that was given to us by a customer. What is nice about our solution is that most of the shelf cameras will work with our hardware. Even pan, tilt and zoom hardware can be plugged in. Basically, any camera that supports the industry standard Pelco-D bus.

The maximum rate is 30 fps at 320×240 pixels with “fast network” selected. Thus, the frame rate depends on the number of enabled camera channels, image size (320×240 or 640×480 pixels), and network speed option selected – slow or fast. We can also attach microphones so that you can listen in…
