The Vista SmartPIR camera mimics a passive infrared alarm sensor offering a number of options to suit the majority of covert surveillance requirements. Combining with a 1/4! CCD 480 TVL color covert camera and a passive infra red sensor, it provides user-defined motion-detection capabilities. The unit can be powered either by 12V DC regulated PSU or by a 12V DC battery pack (not supplied), making it suitable for both permanent, temporary, or emergency CCTV solutions.

It enables the user to record alarmed images that are saved in JPEG format onto an internal, removable, 32Mb or 64Mb flash memory card. As a direct result, this camera can function as a standalone CCTV system to record images which can later be played back on a standard CCTV monitor or a conventional PC using a smart card reader. Such a facility means the installer!|s customer does not necessarily need to invest in a complete CCTV system.
