4.2 Easy Wi-Fi Connection with WPS function

Purpose:

The setting of the wireless network connection is never easy. To avoid the complex setting of the wireless connection you can enable the WPS function.

WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) refers to the easy configuration of the encrypted connection between the device and the wireless router. The WPS makes it easy to add new devices to an existing network without entering long passphrases. There are two modes of the WPS connection, the PBC mode and the PIN mode.

NOTE: If you enable the WPS function, you do not need to configure the parameters such as the encryption type, and you don't need to know the key of the wireless connection.

WPS Enable WPS PIN Code 12345678 Generate PBC connection Connect Use router PIN code Connect SSID C-WPA2-Personal Router PIN code Save

Figure 25, Wi-Fi Settings, WPS

- PBC Mode

PBC refers to the Push-Button-Configuration, in which the user simply has to push a button, either an actual or virtual one (as the button on the configuration interface of the IE browser), on both the Access Point (and a registrar of the network) and the new wireless client device.

1. Check the Enable WPS checkbox to enable WPS.
2. Choose the connection mode as PBC.

Figure 26, PBC Connection

NOTE: Support of this mode is mandatory for both the Access Points and the connecting devices.

1. Check on the Wi-Fi router to see if there is a WPS button. If yes, push the button and the indicator near the button will start flashing, which means the WPS function of the router is enabled. For detailed operation, please see the user guide of the router.
2. Push the WPS button to enable the function on the camera. If there is no WPS button on the camera, you can also click the virtual button to enable the PBC function on the Web interface.
3. Click Connect button. When PBC mode is both enabled in the router and the camera, the camera and the wireless network connect automatically.

- PIN Mode

The PIN mode requires a Personal Identification Number (PIN) to be read from either a sticker or the display on the new wireless device. This PIN must then be entered to connect the network, usually the Access Point of the network.

1. Choose a wireless connection on the list, and the SSID is loaded automatically.

2. Choose Use Route PIN code.

1. Select the smooth streaming mode. There are three modes selectable: Auto, Resolution Priority, and Error Correction.

2. Auto: The resolution and bitrate will be adjusted automatically and resolution will take the priority. The upper limits of these two parameters will not exceed the values you set on the Video page. Go to Configuration >Video/Audio >Video page, set the Resolution and Max. Bitrate before you enable the smooth streaming function. In this mode the framerate will be adjusted automatically to the maximum value.

3. Resolution Priority: The resolution stays the same as the set value in the Video page, and the bitrate will be adjusted automatically. Go to Configuration > Video/Audio > Video page, set the Max. Bitrate before you enable the smooth streaming function. In this mode the framerate will be adjusted automatically to the maximum value.
4. Error Correction: The resolution and bitrate stay the same as the set values in the Video page. When the bandwidth is sufficient, there is packet loss or bit error during transmission, and these situations will lead to video data error or loss. This mode is used to correct data errors during transmission. You can configure the error correction proportion within a range of 0-100. When the proportion is 0, the data error will be corrected by data retransmission. When the proportion is higher than 0, the error data will be corrected via redundant data that is added to the stream and data retransmission. The higher the value, the more redundant data will be generated, the more data error will be corrected, and the larger bandwidth is required. When the proportion is 100, the redundant data will be as large as the original data, and the bandwidth required will be double.

NOTE: Be sure the bandwidth is sufficient in Error Correction mode.

Figure 75, Video Settings

1. Select the Stream Type. Supported stream types are listed in the drop-down list.

NOTES: For some models, the Third Stream is not enabled by default. Go to System > Maintenance > System Service> Software to enable the function as required.

The main stream is usually for recording and live view with good bandwidth, and the sub-stream can be used for live view when the bandwidth is limited.

1. You can customize the following parameters for the selected stream type.

2. Video Type: Select the stream type to video stream, or video & audio composite stream. The audio signal will be recorded only when the Video Type is Video & Audio.
   • Resolution: Select the resolution of the video output.

3. Bitrate Type: Select the bitrate type to Constant or Variable.
   • Video Quality: When bitrate type is selected as Variable, six levels of video quality are selectable.
4. Frame Rate: Set the frame rate. The frame rate is to describe the frequency at which the video stream is updated and is measured in frames per second (fps). A higher frame rate is advantageous when there is movement in the video stream, as it maintains image quality throughout.
5. Max. Bitrate: Set the maximum bitrate from 32 to 16384 Kbps. A higher value corresponds to higher video quality, but more bandwidth is required.

NOTE: The maximum limit of the max. bitrate value varies by camera platform. For certain cameras, the maximum limit is 8192 Kbps or 12288 Kbps.

- Video Encoding: The camera supports multiple video encodings types such as H.264, H.265, MJPEG, and MPEG4. Supported encoding type for different stream types may differ. H.265 is a new encoding technology. Compared to H.264, it reduces the transmission bitrate under the same resolution, frame rate, and image quality.

NOTE: Selectable video encoding types may vary by camera model.

- H.264+ and H.265+: You need to reboot the camera if you want to turn on or turn off the H.264+/H.265+. If you switch from H.264+ to H.265+ directly, and vice versa, a reboot is not required by the system.

• H.264+: If you set the main stream as the stream type, and H.264 as the video encoding, you can see H.264+ available. H.264+ is an improved compression coding technology based on H.264. By enabling H.264+, users can estimate the HDD consumption by its maximum average bitrate. Compared to H.264, H.264+ reduces storage by up to 50 percent with the same maximum bitrate in most scenes.
• H.265+: If you set the main stream as the stream type, and H.265 as the video encoding, you can see H.265+ available. H.265+ is an improved compression coding technology based on H.265. By enabling H.265+, users can estimate the HDD consumption by its maximum average bitrate. Compared to H.265, H.265+ reduces storage by up to 50 percent with the same maximum bitrate in most scenes.

NOTES:

» Upgrade your video player to the latest version if live view or playback does not work properly due to compatibility.
» With H.264+/H.265+ enabled, the parameters such as profile, I frame interval, video quality, and SVC are greyed out.
» With H.264+/H.265+ enabled, some functions are not supported. For those functions, corresponding interfaces will be hidden.
» H.264+/H.265+ can spontaneously adjust the bitrate distribution according to the requirements of the actual scene

in order to realize the set maximum average bitrate in the long term. The camera needs at least 24 hours to adapt to a fixed monitoring scene.

• Max. Average Bitrate: When you set a maximum bitrate, its corresponding recommended maximum average bitrate will be shown in the Max. Average Bitrate box. You can also set the maximum average bitrate manually from 32 Kbps to the value of the set maximum bitrate.
• Profile: When you select H.264 or H.265 as video encoding, you can set the profile. Selectable profiles vary by camera model.
  • I Frame Interval: Set I Frame Interval from 1 to 400.
• SVC: Scalable Video Coding is an extension of the H.264/AVC and H.265 standard. Select OFF/ON to disable/enable the SVC function. Select Auto and the device will automatically extract frames from the original video when the network bandwidth is insufficient.
• Smoothing: It refers to the smoothness of the stream. The higher the value, the more fluent the stream will be, although the video quality may not be satisfactory. The lower the value, the higher the stream quality will be, although it might not appear as fluent.

1. Set the port mapping in the virtual severs of Forwarding. By default, camera uses port 80, 8000, and 554. You can change these port values with a Web browser or client software.

EXAMPLE: When the cameras are connected to the same router, you can configure the ports of a camera as 80, 8000, and 554 with IP address 192.168.1.23, and the ports of another camera as 81, 8001, 555, 8201 with IP 192.168.1.24. Refer to the steps as below:

1. As the settings mentioned above, map port 80, 8000, 554, and 8200 for the network camera at 192.168.1.23.
2. Map port 81, 8001, 555, and 8201 for the network camera at 192.168.1.24.
3. Enable ALL or TCP protocols.
4. Check the Enable checkbox and click Save to save the settings.
