The BL-C10 is a network, IP based camera and requires a direct connection to an ethernet network (or a connection to the network over electrical wiring, using a pair of 85PLC modules). With this camera, you can remotely pan and tilt the lense to look in any different direction at your command, without having to manually reposition the camera.
For use with any Motorola Homesight Kit.

This smart little network camera has a lot to offer, including remote pan and tilt functions plus thermal motion detection, and all at an unbeatable price!
Panasonic's latest IP cameras bring network surveillance easily into the budgets of smaller businesses and home owners. They offer an impressive range of features for a modest price. The Advanced BL-C10 is a fine example.
Build quality is on a par with cameras three times the price. The lens is mounted in a small rotating ball, which provides for pan functions. A vertical slot in the ball allows the lens to tilt from ten degrees upwards of the central position and up to 40 degrees downwards- all from a remote location using ANY Motorola Homesight system (both USB and Gateway versions), or locally on your PC.
Installation is almost too easy: the Homesight system searches the network and displays all discovered cameras. The setup and initialization is handled automatically. Once installed, just program in your desired image capturing, video recording, lamp controlling, timed and/or cellphone/email alerting events. You can also log in remotely and control the camera yourself. The interface is a tidy affair, with all controls located to the right of the live image. It's easier to use than most, as you don't need to leave the main screen to access and configure many settings. Using the graphical control pad next to the image moves the lens in either direction in steps of a few degrees at a time. Pressing the separate scan buttons causes the camera to complete a full vertical or horizontal sweep. Lens movement is reasonably fast, yet just the right speed to see everything: a full horizontal sweep across 100 degrees completes in a shade over 11 seconds, while a vertical sweep spans about seven seconds.
Another great feature of this camera is the Privacy Button. Pressing the privacy button on the camera body or at the control interface moves the lens inside its shell and switches off the video feed. A timer can be used to take pictures at regular intervals or you may arm the motion sensor for motion detection activated events. During testing, we found the sensor worked well, easily picking up our testers as they walked across the sensor's field of detection.
All of these features and more are handled within the Homesight PC-based software, or over any standard webb browser when using the Gateway no-PC-required network based Homesight controller. Note this camera cannot be used without a Motorola homesight controller.
