1. Introducon

1.3 System Connections

The IP Camera can be connected in one of two ways:

1) 1 to 1 connection where one camera is connected to one PC client or a decoder system, or 2) 1 to many connections where one system can be connected to several PCs and decoder systems (the video server can work as a video decoder which takes the data from a video server or IP camera, decodes and outputs analog video).

Topology

Generally, the IP Camera and PC or a Decoder is connected in a 1-to-1 mode or a 1-to many configuration:

• 1:1 Connection
  

graph LR
    A["Site"] --> B["Remote Center (Decoder)"]
    C["Site"] --> D["Remote Center (PC SW)"]
    B --> E["Remote Center"]
    D --> E

One camera is installed at a site where video images are transmitted. A PC or a decoder is installed at a central location to receive and view the video images on an analog monitor. Audio and serial data are transferred in either direction.

• 1:N Connection
  

In this configuration, a site can be monitored from many remote central locations. Although up to 64 PCs or Decoders can be connected to one IP Camera, the maximum connections would be limited by network bandwidth connection. Functionally, the VMS (Video Management System) software provided can replace the decoder.

1. Introducon

Multicast Mode

If the network supports Multicasting, a large number of decoders can be used to receive video effectively using a single video and audio streaming. However, Multicast Mode is possible only when the network environment supports Multicast.

- Relay

graph LR
    A["Site"] --> B["Center 1(Decoder)"]
    B --> C["Center 2 (Decoder)"]

In this arrangement, video and audio can be re-transmitted from one center to another center. The arrangement is useful when the network bandwidth at the site is limited while there is more than one center wanting to monitor the site.

• VMS (Video Management System)

graph LR
    A["Site"] --> B["Remote Center"]
    C["Site"] --> D["Remote Center (Decoder)"]
    D --> E["VMS"]

VMS (Video Management System) is a Windows based remote monitoring program to access multiple servers for real-time monitoring or control of the servers and connected cameras. Please refer to the VMS User Manual for more information on VMS.

2.1 Connecting Power

After confirming the Power Source, connect Power Adaptor and connect the 12VDC Connector to the System.

2.2 Connecting Network

Plug the Network Cable into the Ethernet port (RJ-45 network port).

2.3 Connecting Video

1) To display video through the composite or HD-SDI port, connect each port to a monitor using BNC coaxial cable. To display video through the HDMI port, connect the port to a monitor using the HDMI cable.
2) On the Video tab, the Enable Preview option should be set to "ON". (Please refer to the Video Configuration section for more details):

• Video cannot be viewed if the BNC coaxial cable is not connected when using HD-SDI.
• If the video transmission distance is too far away, the video data may not be transmitted due to a reduction in the video signal. In order to prevent this, install a repeater in the middle.
• When using HD-SDI, the video can be viewed on the HD-SDI monitor.
• When using HDMI, the video can be viewed on the monitor supporting HDMI.

2.4 Connecting Audio

Audio is Full-Duplex. It is possible to set the mode as Tx-only, Rx-only, or Tx-Rx.

• Connect audio input and output ports to audio devices accordingly.
• The Audio signal required is line level, so audio equipment with an amp, mixer or other amplifier should be used.

2.5 Connecting Serial Port (RS-485 Communication)

This IP PTZ Camera can be connected to external equipment such as a PT receiver, etc. The camera can send PT commands via the Serial Ports.

When a Decoder System is used to connect the IP PTZ Camera to the Serial Port, the Decoder System works in Pass-Through Mode (data from one port is delivered to the other port.

2.6 Connecting Sensor and Alarm

Connect Sensor and Alarm Devices to corresponding terminals accordingly.

2. Installaon

2.7 Check If It Works

Once the power is supplied to the camera, it will start booting. The system will boot up to operation mode after approximately 40-60 seconds. The green LED on the Ethernet Port will flash indicating the system is ready.

- Input Format

Choose the appropriate Input Format from the list provided.

- Resolution

Select the appropriate Video Encoding Resolution. The Scaling option is used when the Encoding Resolution is different from Input Resolution. Without Scaling, the input video will be cut according to the encoding resolution. If Scaling is selected, the input video will be adjusted according to encoding resolution.

- Framerate

Determine the maximum number of frames per second for the video stream.

1,2,3,4,5,6,8,10,15,20,25,30 and 60 frame rate can be selected. The actual frame rate of the video can be less than the maximum frame rate set due to the network bandwidth limitation.

- Preference

Select Encoding Mode to control the video quality or bitrate: Quality (VBR) or Bit Rate (CBR). If Bitrate is selected, the video encoding will be prompted by the Bitrate value entered. Therefore, the Bitrate mode corresponds to CBR (Constant Bit Rate) encoding. If Quality is selected, the video encoding will be prompted by the quality of image selected. Therefore, Quality mode corresponds to VBR (Variable Bit Rate) encoding.

- Quality

Select Quality Level: 7 Levels of Quality are available. Quality Mode (VBR

Encoding) encodes every frame in a constant quality. Therefore, resulting bitrate may vary a lot depending on the complexity or activity changes in the input video. Quality Mode is preferred when constant video quality is required and the network bandwidth is enough for delivering the stream of highly varying bitrate.

- Bitrate

Bitrate value ranges between 32 and 16Mbps. Bitrate Mode (CBR Encoding) allows you to set a fixed target bitrate that consumes a predictable amount of bandwidth. In order to stay within the bitrate limit, video quality is controlled dynamically according to the complexity or activity changes in the input video.

- I-Frame Interval

I-Frame Interval ranges between 1 and 255.

- H.264 Profile

Select the H.264 Profile: High Profile or Baseline Profile

A profile defines the various capabilities which target specific applications.

4.3 Image Configuration

Day & Night

The IP Camera provides color images during the day. However, as light diminishes below a certain level, the camera can be set to automatically switch to night mode (black & white mode) for better image quality.

● Day & Night Mode: Selectable based on environment.
● Auto: Automatically switches to/from Day (color) or Night (B&W) Mode based on the lighting conditions using ICR (Infrared Cut Removal).
● Day (Color): Provides color image regardless of light.
● Night (B/W): Provides B/W image regardless of light.

White Balance

● White Balance Mode:

• Auto: This mode adjusts the white balance output using color information from the entire screen. It uses the color temperature radiating from a black subject based on a 3000K to 7500K range.
• Manual: Manual control of R and B gain, 256 steps each.
• Indoor: 3200K Base Mode.
• Outdoor: 5800 K Base Mode.
• Outdoor Auto: Provides automatic white balance output, especially for outdoors. Captures images with natural white balance in both the mornings and evenings.
• ATW (Auto Tracking WB): Auto Tracking White Balance (2000K to 10000K).

Auto Exposure

- AE Mode:

• Full Auto: Auto Iris and Gain, Fixed Shutter Speed (59.94/NTSC:1/60 sec, 50/PAL: 1/50 sec).
• Manual: 21 Shutter Speed, 18 Iris and 8 Gain steps can be set manually.
• Shutter Priority: 21 Shutter Speed steps (1/2 - 1/10,000) can be set manually. The Iris and Gain are set automatically based on the brightness of the subject.
• Iris Priority: 18 Iris steps (F1.8 to close) can be set manually. The Shutter Speed and Gain are set automatically based on the brightness of the subject.
• Bright: The Bright control function adjusts both the Gain and Iris using an internal algorithm based on the brightness level set by the user. Exposure is controlled by the Gain when subject is dark and controlled by the Iris when subject is bright. As both Gain and Iris are fixed, this mode is used when exposing at a fixed camera sensitivity.

- DSS Mode

Select Auto to operate DSS (Digital Sutter Speed)

● Back Light Compensation

The camera can balance the lighting in a scene with an extremely bright background such as sunlight. Adjusting the lighting contrast will show a clear image.

- Gamma Mode

Auto Focus

● Minimum Focus Length

Automatically uses Digital Zoom (12x) supported by the camera zoom lens. x10 Optical Zoom and x12 Digital Zoom lens (f=5.1 - 5.1mm) is built in camera.

- AF Sensitivity

• Normal: Focuses at the quickest speed. Use this mode when shooting a fast moving subject. Usually, this is the most appropriate mode.
• Low: Improves the focus stability. When the lighting level is low, the AF function does not work well to show a stable image.

- Focus Offset

Placing a dome cover in front of the camera may cause the focal distance of the camera to change. Although the camera responds to changes in this mode, this effect exceeds the AF range so it cannot track.

Enhancement

WDR

The Wide Dynamic Range mode is a function for dividing an image into a grid and correcting shadows and blown-out highlights in accordance with the intensity difference. It enables you to obtain images with a dark to light range, even when capturing a subject with a high intensity difference that is backlight or includes extremely light portions.

- Noise Reduction

The NR Function removes noise (both random and non-random) to provide a clear image. This function has six options: levels 1 to 5, plus OFF. The NR effect is applied in levels based on the gain and this value determines the limits of the effect. In bright conditions, changing the NR level will not have any effect.

- Stabilizer Mode

Turning on the image stabilizer function reduces image blurring caused by vibration, for example, which allows you to obtain images without much blurring.

- Defog Mode

When the surrounding area of the subject is foggy and low contrast, the defog mode will make the subject appear clearer.

4. Remote Conguraon

- Aperture Control

Aperture Control is a function which adjusts the edge enhancement of objects in the picture. There are 16 levels of adjustment, starting with “no enhancement”. When shooting text, this control may help by making the text sharper.

- Color Gain

Color Gain can be configured in this mode. Use this setting when bright colors are important. The settings range from 60% to 2000% with 15 stages total with 1000% being the standard.

● High Sensitivity

In this mode, the maximum gain increases enabling a brighter output even in a darker environment. However, if the gain reaches a high level (up to 4x), the image will have a large amount of noise.

Contact your ISP provider or network manager for IP address information.

DNS

- Obtain DNS Server Address automatically

Find DNS Server Address automatically when IP Mode is set to DHCP.

- Use the following DNS Server Address

Enter the DNS Server IP Address: Primary or Secondary DNS Server

Domain Name System (DNS) is a database system that translates a computer's fully qualified domain name into an IP address. Networked computers use IP addresses to locate and connect to each other, but IP addresses can be difficult for people to remember. For example, on the web, it's much easier to remember the domain name www.amazon.com than it is to remember its corresponding IP address (207.171.166.48). Each organization that maintains a computer network will have at least one server handling DNS queries. That server, called a name server, will hold a list of all the IP addresses within its network, plus a cache of IP addresses for recently accessed computers outside the network.

IPv6

One-Way

- This IP Camera provides two kinds of one-way (unidirectional) streaming based on UTP to clients: RTSP and MPEG-TS. Both are types of broadcasting where traffic from clients to a server is not generated at all.

- RTP (Real-Time Transport Protocol) is an Internet Protocol used for transmitting single real-time multimedia data such as audio and video to a select group of connected clients. Normally RTSP uses RTP to format packets of multimedia content. The RTP menu is used when the RTP only is streaming without an RTSP connection. RTP stream will be transmitted to the destination set. The SDP (Session Description Protocol) file can be found in the server and a client can retrieve it using the http connection.

• Destination IP: Set the IP Address of the destination system receiving the RTP Stream. If the system is a decoder, RTSP authentication information can be found in the middle of the RTSP URL: rtsp://admin:1234@192.168.10.100:554/video1
• Destination Port: Set the port of the destination system receiving the TRP stream.
• User Name: Enter the user name that will be used as a session name in the SDP file.
• File Name: Enter the file name that will be used as the name of the SDP file. When this is entered, it can be accessed through http://ServerAddress/filename

4. Remote Conguraon

- MPEG-TS is the standard format for the transmission and storage of audio, video, and data, and is used in broadcast systems such as DVB and ATSC. Transport Stream is specified in MPEG-2 Part 1 Systems (formally known as ISO/IEC standard 13818-1 or ITU-T Rec. H.222.0). Transport Stream specifies a container format encapsulating packetized elementary streams with error correction and stream synchronization features for maintaining transmission integrity when the signal is degraded. Although MPEG-TS supports AAC as the audio algorithm, only video is streamed when audio algorithm is set to G.711.

- Destination IP: Set the IP Address of the Destination System which will receive MPEG-TS stream.

- Destination Port: Set the Port of the Destination System which will receive MPEG-TS stream.

SNMP

SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is compatible with both SNMPv1 and SNMPvec. Settings for using SNMP are as follows:

4. Remote Conguraon

• SNMP Listen Port (0, 161, 1025 - 65535)
This port is for connecting an external device as an SNMP client. SNMP is not used when the value is 0.
• SNMP Trap Destination IP
Set the SNMP Trap Destination IP.
• SNMP Trap Destination Port (0, 162, 1025 - 65535)
Set the SNMP Trap Destination Port. SNMP is not used when the value is 0.

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is used by Network Management Systems to communicate with network elements. SNMP lets TCP/IP-Based Network Management clients use a TCP/IP-Based internetwork to exchange information about the configuration and status of nodes. SNMP can also generate trap messages used to report significant TCP/IP events asynchronously to interested clients. For Example: a router could send a message if one of its redundant power supplies fails or a printer could send an SNMP trap when it is out of paper.

DDNS

- DynDNS

DynDNS service is used in this mode. Refer to www.dyndns.org for details. ID, Password and Domain name are needed when DynDNS is set.

Dynamic DNS is a method, protocol, or network service that provides the capability for a networked device, such as a router or computer system using the Internet Protocol Suite, to notify a domain name server to change, in real time (ad-hoc) the active DNS configuration of its configured hostnames, addresses or other information stored in DNS.

4. Remote Conguraon

• Vdyn

Vdyn is a DDNS service provided by Visionica (hp://visionica.com). No further configuration is required for using this service. It internally uses the MAC address for the registration. When it succeeds, the domain name of the form

001C63A607EC.visionica.info is displayed on Current Domain entry of the Network page. Email setting is not mandatory.

- Check IP Disable

If “Check IP Disable” is selected, it will skip to check it’s own IP. In Fixed IP Mode, the set IP will be registered on the DDNS Server. In DHCP Mode, a dynamically assigned IP will be registered on the DDNS Server. Normally Check IP Disable should be unchecked in order to obtain the public IP in the network.

IP Filtering

IP Filtering is simply a mechanism that decides which types of IP datagrams will be processed normally and which will be discarded.

4.5 Event Configuration

- Local Event Configuration

When a Decoder is connected to an IP Camera, one system becomes a Local System and the other a Remote System (generally a system which is being used by the user is called as Local System). Event Actions can be configured from the Remote System as well as the Local System. For Example: it is possible to turn on an alarm device in the Local (center) Decoder System when a sensor device in Remote (site) IP Camera is triggered. The Local section configures the actions for the events from the Local (self) System and the configuration activates the local devices and the Remote sections configure the actions for events from Remote (peer) System.

The following table lists the possible actions for the events:

Action	Description
Alarm out	Triggers Alarm (Relay) Port
Email	Sends Email to the specified Email Address; AVI File can be attached
FTP	Upload AVI File to a specified FTP Server
Google Drive	Upload Google Drive storing through network
Preset	Move to the Preset Position

- Local & Remote Event Configuration

Synchronize the server time with an NTP Server using NTP (Network Time Protocol). Name of the NTP Server should be registered on NTP Server Name.

The Network Time Protocol (NTP) is a protocol for synchronizing the clocks of computer systems over packet-switched, variable-latency data networks. It is designed particularly to resist the effects of variable latency by using a jitter buffer.

Display Time & OSD

- System ID

Enter System ID that is used for this camera.

The set System ID is displayed with video image on a Web Browser. The System ID is also transferred to remote software, such as VMS, and displayed on it.

- Information Display

System ID and/or IP Camera time can be displayed over the video window in Internet Explorer. Each item can be turn on or off separately, and position also can be configured. This information is displayed after the video is decompressed.

- Burn In OSD

Insert System ID and date/time in the compressed video. System ID and time respectively can be turned on or off in the video. Position and Font size can be configured also. System ID for BurnIn OSD exists independently from normal System ID.

4. Remote Conguraon

Note: the size of Burnin OSD display varies according to the encoding resolution setting. This is inevitable because Burnin OSD is inserted to the frames before encoding is performed. The following table describes the rule for BurnIn OSD display.

Resolution	Small (8x8)	Middle (16x16)	Large (32x32)
352x480 / 352x240 / 352x576 / 352x288	2	1	0
720x480 / 720x240 / 720x576 / 720x288 / 640x480 / 800x600	2	2	1
1024 x 768 / 1280x720 / 1280 x 960 / 1280x1024 / 1440x900 / 1600x900 / 1680x1050 / 1920x1056 / 1920x1080 / 2048x1536 / 2560x1600 / 2592x1936	2	2	2

• 2: Both System ID and Time are displayed.
• 1: Either System ID or Time can be displayed. When both are enabled, System ID is displayed.
- 0: No items are displayed. This is because video area is too small to display OSD text in large text.
