During normal times, image data taken by a security surveillance camera is sent to the administrator's communication terminal along with the date and time via the Internet.
When the alarm bell rings, shooting of the monitoring camera for shooting the operation panel on the front of the control panel starts, and together with imaging data shot by the monitoring camera and imaging data shot by the security monitoring camera, the administrator's It is characterized in that it is configured to be transmitted to a communication terminal.

  The surveillance camera system according to claim 2 normally takes a picture of the inside and surroundings of the monitored building with a security camera for security, and the image is taken on the display of the administrator's personal computer or portable terminal via the Internet. Display in real time with time. When the alarm bell rings, the surveillance camera for photographing the operation panel on the front surface of the control panel starts. The image data taken by the monitoring camera and the image data taken by the security monitoring camera are transmitted to the administrator's communication terminal.

  The surveillance camera system according to claim 3 is characterized in that, in the surveillance camera system according to claim 1 or 2, the surveillance camera can be remotely controlled using the communication terminal.

  The remote control of the monitoring camera includes, for example, control of the monitoring direction, zoom control, ON / OFF control, control for lighting the illumination for the monitoring camera at night.

  The surveillance camera system according to claim 4 is the surveillance camera system according to any one of claims 1 to 3, wherein a communication facility is provided in the control panel or in the vicinity thereof, and the communication facility and the communication terminal of the manager And, it is characterized in that it is configured to allow two-way calls using a telephone.

  The call facility is a call facility using the Internet, a general telephone, a wired communication facility, or the like.

Effect of device

  According to the surveillance camera system of claim 1, when an alarm bell that informs of a fire or emergency situation rings, the operation panel on the front of the control panel is photographed by the surveillance camera, and the image is taken by the administrator via the Internet. It can be sent to the communication terminal to notify the administrator. Then, the administrator can see which alarm lamp is lit by looking at the alarm lamp on the operation panel displayed on the display of the communication terminal. For this reason, the operation to stop the alarm bell can be remotely operated using a communication terminal without going to the site.

  According to the surveillance camera system of the second aspect, in addition to the effects described above, it is possible to remotely monitor crime prevention monitoring in and around the building.

  According to the surveillance camera system of claim 3, as a result of being able to perform remote control of the surveillance camera using the communication terminal, the imaging by the surveillance camera can be zoomed up for easy viewing, or the control panel Now you can shoot around the.

  According to the surveillance camera system of claim 4, as a result of enabling the two-way call using the call facility, the communication terminal of the manager and the telephone, it is known that the alarm bell is ringing and is near the control panel. You can now talk to people and ask about the details and give them the appropriate response.
