Questions

Can’t find your answer? Ask on WhatsApp

Does the iDS-UVC-P38 output 4K video?
Yes. Its HDMI output runs at 3840 x 2160 at 30 or 25 fps. The SDI output is 1920 x 1080, so use HDMI when 4K output is needed, and check the capture equipment accepts 4K over HDMI.
Does it need driver software for USB?
No. The USB Type-C port uses USB 3.0 and is plug and play, so no driver software needs to be installed on the connected computer. Use the 2 m USB 3.0 cable included in the box for the connection.
Does it track people automatically?
Yes. Human body following is included as a smart function, alongside the 4K imaging and 20x zoom features of this model. The manufacturer's specifications do not state tracking speed or range limits, so confirm the room layout with Procure.ae.

It offers 20x optical zoom and 16x digital zoom, with pan from -165° to 165° and tilt from -90° to 30°. The equivalent focal length runs from 23.8 mm to 476 mm.
Can it connect to control systems?
Yes. It supports ONVIF and an SDK, with RS-232 and RS-485 ports for VISCA, HIKVISION, PELCO-D and PELCO-P control protocols. Those interfaces let an existing control system adjust pan, tilt, zoom and presets.
