NetBotz Camera Pod 160 Installation Manual
Introduction
Product description
®
®
The American Power Conversion (APC ) NetBotz Camera Pod 160 is a
motion-sensitive camera capable of sending image data through a USB
connection to a Rack Monitor 450, Rack Monitor 550, or Room Monitor 455.
The NetBotz 160 can be triggered remotely by the appliance in response to a
number of environmental alarms or events, such as a temperature spike or the
action of opening a door. The NetBotz 160 can also provide constant
surveillance of an area or entrance.
The NetBotz 160 includes the following features:
• Image processor that generates images up to 1280 x 1024 resolution,
24-bit color, and up to 30 frames per second.
Note: The maximum frame rate describes the maximum
number of images that the camera imager is capable of
producing each second. The actual frame rate is dependent on
the amount of available bandwidth and current resolution.
• Image Size: 7.7 mm x 6.1 mm (9.82 mm diagonal = 0.387 in).
• Field of View: 64º (H) x 53º (V) for all resolutions.
• User adjustable and switchable industry-standard CS-mount lens.
CS-mount permits access to hundreds of different general purpose and
special purpose lenses.
• Microphone jack (standard 3.5-mm miniplug), which provides the ability
to monitor and capture monophonic audio from the location in which the
NetBotz 160 is installed.
• Speaker/headphone jack (standard 3.5-mm stereo miniplug) that can be
used with unpowered headphones or powered speakers to provide
monophonic audio output.
• An optional door switch sensor (NBES0302 or NBES0303) can be used
to trigger image capture when someone opens a monitored entryway or
other door, such as a cabinet or closet.

The imager of the NetBotz 160 supports two imaging modes: Wide Screen
mode and Pan and Scan mode.
• In Wide Screen mode, all images that are captured are based on the
entire 1280 x 1024 frame. The NetBotz 160 then reduces the total 1280 x
1024 frame to the appropriate resolution or mode, resulting in a smaller
image that includes the entire field of view supported by the NetBotz
160. However, in reducing the image to smaller sizes some image detail
will be lost.
• In Pan and Scan mode, a portion of the total 1280 x 1024 field of view
supported by the NetBotz 160 is selected as the window of interest
within the frame. This selected window is then used to determine what
portion of the total field of view to include in image captures and in the
Camera view when resolutions lower than 1280 x 1024 are needed. 1280
x 1024 images still contain the entire field of view, but lower image
resolution modes use only a portion of the frame, determined by a
user-specified 640 x 480 window of interest.
