The VIGI C540-W adds Wi-Fi connectivity, allowing it to connect to your network wirelessly without an Ethernet cable at the mounting point. The VIGI C540 is the wired-only version requiring an Ethernet (PoE) cable for both data and power. The C540-W also supports 12V DC power via an adapter. Choose the C540-W for flexible wireless outdoor placement; choose the C540 for permanent wired PoE installations where cable infrastructure is already in place. Does the C540-W require a Wi-Fi connection, or can it also use Ethernet? The VIGI C540-W supports both Wi-Fi and wired Ethernet connectivity. Wi-Fi allows cable-free placement at the mounting point. If an Ethernet cable is available at the mounting point, it can also be connected via RJ45 for a more stable wired connection. Check the datasheet for PoE support details on the wired port. How does auto-tracking work? When auto-tracking is enabled, the camera’s AI detects a moving person or vehicle in the scene and automatically pans and tilts to keep the subject centred in the frame as they move. This is particularly useful for monitoring large open areas such as yards and car parks where a fixed camera would lose the subject as they move out of the field of view. Auto-tracking can be enabled or disabled via the VIGI app or web UI. Can I control the pan and tilt remotely from my phone? Yes. The VIGI app (iOS & Android) allows you to manually control the pan and tilt direction of the C540-W remotely from anywhere with an internet connection. You can also set preset positions and patrol routes via the app for automated monitoring without manual control. Does the VIGI C540-W record audio? Yes. The C540-W has a built-in microphone for one-way audio recording. Audio surveillance in Australia may require compliance with state and federal privacy legislation, including signage requirements in workplaces and public areas. Consult your legal obligations before enabling audio recording.

For multi-camera deployments, pairing with a VIGI NVR provides centralised recording, playback, and AI event management. What PoE standard does this camera require? The VIGI C250 is powered by IEEE 802.3af PoE, which is the standard supported by most PoE switches and NVRs. It also accepts 12V DC power if PoE is not available at the installation point. Is the 2.8mm lens suitable for indoor and outdoor use? Yes. The 2.8mm focal length provides a wide field of view, making it ideal for monitoring large indoor areas such as retail floors, reception areas, and warehouses, as well as outdoor areas like building entrances and car parks. For longer-distance or narrower-angle coverage, a 4mm lens variant is also available. How does AI human and vehicle detection reduce false alarms? The on-board AI chip analyses motion events in real time and classifies them as human, vehicle, or other. Only human and vehicle events trigger push notifications, so you won't receive alerts for a cat walking past, a tree branch moving, or a change in lighting — significantly reducing alarm fatigue. Can I integrate the VIGI C250 with third-party NVRs or VMS platforms? The VIGI C250 is an ONVIF-compatible IP camera, which means it can be integrated with most third-party NVRs and video management systems that support the ONVIF protocol. Full AI features (smart detection, analytics) are only available when used within the VIGI ecosystem.

Downloads VIGI C250 Datasheet (PDF) Frequently Asked Questions What is the practical difference between the 2.8mm and 4mm lens versions? The 2.8mm lens has a wider field of view, making it ideal for monitoring large open areas like retail floors, reception areas, and warehouses at close to medium range. The 4mm lens has a narrower field of view with a longer effective range, making it better suited for corridors, building entrances, car park lanes, and perimeter fencing where subjects are further from the camera. If you’re unsure, the 4mm is generally the safer choice for outdoor and entrance monitoring. Does the VIGI C250 work without an NVR? Yes. The camera can operate as a standalone unit, recording directly to a microSD card (up to 256GB, sold separately) and managed via the VIGI app or web browser. For multi-camera deployments, pairing with a VIGI NVR provides centralised recording, playback, and AI event management. What PoE standard does this camera require? The VIGI C250 is powered by IEEE 802.3af PoE, which is the standard supported by most PoE switches and NVRs. It also accepts 12V DC power if PoE is not available at the installation point. How does AI human and vehicle detection reduce false alarms? The on-board AI chip analyses motion events in real time and classifies them as human, vehicle, or other. Only human and vehicle events trigger push notifications, so you won’t receive alerts for a cat walking past, a tree branch moving, or a change in lighting — significantly reducing alarm fatigue on busy sites. Can I integrate the VIGI C250 with third-party NVRs or VMS platforms? The VIGI C250 is an ONVIF-compatible IP camera, which means it can be integrated with most third-party NVRs and video management systems that support the ONVIF protocol. Full AI features (smart detection, analytics) are only available when used within the VIGI ecosystem. Is this camera suitable for number plate capture in a car park? The 4mm lens is better suited to number plate capture than the 2.8mm variant due to its longer effective range and narrower field of view. For dedicated licence plate recognition (LPR) applications, a varifocal or purpose-built LPR camera is recommended. The VIGI C250 (4mm) provides good general-purpose car park coverage with vehicle analytics for identifying vehicle type and colour.

Downloads VIGI C240 Datasheet (PDF) Frequently Asked Questions What is the difference between the VIGI C240 and the VIGI C240I? The VIGI C240 uses full-colour night vision with white light LEDs, producing colour footage in complete darkness. The VIGI C240I uses infrared (IR) LEDs, producing black-and-white footage in low-light and dark conditions. The C240 is preferred where colour detail at night is important for identification — such as retail, car parks, and entrances. The C240I is preferred where discreet monitoring is required, as the IR LEDs are invisible to the naked eye. Does the white light turn on automatically at night? Yes. The VIGI C240’s white light LEDs activate automatically when the camera detects low-light conditions, providing full-colour illumination. The sensitivity threshold can be adjusted via the VIGI app or web UI. The visible white light also acts as a deterrent to potential intruders. Is the VIGI C240 suitable for outdoor installation in Australia? Yes. The VIGI C240 carries an IP67 weatherproof rating — fully sealed against dust ingress and heavy rain — and an IK10 vandal-proof rating for impact resistance. It is suitable for outdoor installation in all Australian weather conditions including coastal, tropical, and high-UV environments. Ensure the mounting surface and cable entry point are also appropriately sealed for outdoor use. Can the VIGI C240 record without an NVR? Yes. The C240 supports standalone on-camera recording to a microSD card (up to 256GB) and remote management via the VIGI app or web browser. A VIGI NVR is optional but recommended for multi-camera deployments requiring centralised recording, playback, and AI event management. What is the 2.8mm lens field of view suitable for? The 2.8mm lens provides a wide field of view — approximately 100–110 degrees horizontal — making it ideal for covering large areas at close to medium range, such as retail floors, reception areas, car park bays, and building entrances. For longer-range coverage of corridors, driveways, or perimeter fencing, the 4mm variant provides a narrower field of view with greater effective range.

Frequently Asked Questions What makes the dual-lens design different from a standard PTZ camera? A standard PTZ camera uses a single lens that physically zooms in, losing the wide-angle view in the process. The C540V’s dual-lens design maintains a wide-area overview on one lens while simultaneously providing a zoomed close-up on the other — giving operators both context and detail at the same time without switching between views. Is the 3× zoom optical or digital? The C540V uses optical zoom, which maintains full image quality at all zoom levels. Digital zoom crops and enlarges the existing image, reducing resolution and detail. Optical zoom is significantly superior for identification purposes at distance. Does the C540V work without an NVR? Yes. The C540V supports standalone operation with local recording to a microSD card (up to 256GB, sold separately) and remote management via the VIGI app. A VIGI NVR is optional but recommended for multi-camera deployments requiring centralised recording, playback, and AI event management. What PoE standard does this camera require? The VIGI C540V is powered by IEEE 802.3af PoE. It also accepts 12V DC power if PoE is not available at the installation point. Check the product datasheet for exact power consumption to ensure your PoE switch or injector can supply sufficient wattage for the motorised pan/tilt mechanism. How does auto-tracking work? When a human or vehicle is detected within the camera’s field of view, the C540V’s motorised pan and tilt automatically follows the subject as it moves, keeping it centred in frame. This is particularly useful for perimeter monitoring where subjects may move across a wide area beyond the initial detection zone. Is this camera suitable for Australian outdoor conditions? Yes. The IP66 rating protects against dust ingress and heavy rain, making it suitable for exposed outdoor locations across all Australian climates including tropical, coastal, and arid environments.

Frequently Asked Questions What is the difference between the VIGI C340 and the VIGI C340I? The VIGI C340 uses full-colour night vision with spotlight LEDs, producing colour footage in complete darkness. The VIGI C340I uses infrared (IR) LEDs, producing black-and-white footage in low-light and dark conditions. The C340 is preferred where colour detail at night is important for identification — such as driveways, car parks, and building entrances. The C340I is preferred where discreet monitoring is required, as the IR LEDs are invisible to the naked eye and the camera does not emit visible light at night. What is the difference between IP66 and IP67? Both ratings provide full dust protection (IP6X). IP66 protects against powerful water jets from any direction — suitable for all outdoor Australian weather conditions including heavy rain. IP67 additionally protects against temporary water immersion up to 1 metre. For standard outdoor mounting on walls, eaves, and poles, IP66 is more than sufficient. The VIGI C240 dome camera carries IP67 if immersion protection is required. Does the VIGI C340 record audio? Yes. The VIGI C340 has a built-in microphone for one-way audio recording. Audio surveillance in Australia may require compliance with state and federal privacy legislation, including signage requirements. Consult your legal obligations before enabling audio recording in workplaces or public areas. Can the VIGI C340 operate without an NVR? Yes. The C340 supports standalone operation with local recording to a microSD card and remote management via the VIGI app or web browser. A VIGI NVR is optional but recommended for multi-camera deployments requiring centralised recording, playback, and smart event management. Which lens variant should I choose — 2.8mm, 4mm, or 6mm? The 2.8mm lens provides the widest field of view — best for covering large open areas at close to medium range such as driveways, car parks, and building entrances. The 4mm lens offers a narrower field of view with greater effective range — suited to corridors, gates, and medium-distance coverage. The 6mm lens provides the narrowest field of view and longest effective range — ideal for monitoring specific points at distance such as gates, letterboxes, or perimeter fencing from a fixed mounting point.
