Each V6201 Series megapixel camera is available with an MPEG-4 and MJPEG embedded dual video encoding system, offering video compression with image resolution up to 1280 x 960 at 20 frames per second (fps). With its day/night function, the fixed camera can automatically switch from color mode to black and white in very low light environments, making it a solid solution for 24/7 surveillance applications observing perimeters, parking lots, lobbies and other high-incident locales. A privacy mask can be defined to prevent users from viewing objectionable areas.
