4.2 Easy Wi-Fi Connecon with WPS funcon
Purpose:
The seng of the wireless network conncon is never easy. To avoid the complex seng of the wireless conncon you can enable the WPS funcon.
WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) refers to the easy conguraon of the encrypted conncon between the device and the wireless router. The WPS makes it easy to add new devices to an exisng network without entering long passphrases. There are two modes of the WPS conncon, the PBC mode and the PIN mode.
Note: If you enable the WPS funcon, you do not need to congregate the parameters such as the encrypon type and you do not need to know the key of the wireless conncon.
Steps:

text_image
WPS Enable WPS PIN Code 12345678 Generate PBC connection Connect Use router PIN code Connect SSID C-WPA2-Personal Router PIN code SaveFigure 4-9 Wi-Fi Sengs - WPS
PBC Mode:
PBC refers to the Push-Buon-Conguraon, in which the user simply has to push a
buon, either an actual or virtual one (as the buon on the
conguraon interface of the IE browser), on both the Access Point (and a registrar of the network) and the new wireless client device.
- Check the checkbox of ☑ Enable WPS to enable WPS.
- Choose the conncon mode as PBC.

Note: Support of this mode is mandatory for both the Access Points and the connecng devices.
- Check on the Wi-Fi router to see if there is a WPS buon. If yes, push the buon and you can see the indicator near the buon start ashing, which means the WPS funcon of the router is enabled. For detailed operaon, please see the user guide of the router.
- Push the WPS buon to enable the funcon on the camera.
If there is not a WPS buon on the camera, you can also click the virtual buon to enable the PBC funcon on the web interface.
- Click Connect buon.
When the PBC mode is both enabled in the router and the camera, the camera and the wireless network is connected automatically.
PIN Mode:
The PIN mode requires a Personal Idencaon Number (PIN) to be read from either a scker 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.
Steps:
- Choose a wireless conncon on the list and the SSID is loaded automacally.
- Choose Use route PIN code.

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.
Resoluon:
Select the resolution of the video output.
Bitrate Type:
Select the bitrate type to constant or variable.
Video Quality:
When bitrate type is selected as Variable, 6 levels of video quality are selectable.
Frame Rate:
Set the frame rate. The frame rate is to describe the frequency at which the video stream is updated and it is measured by frames per second (fps). A higher frame rate is advantageous when there is movement in the video stream, as it maintains image quality throughout.
Max. Bitrate:
Set the max. bitrate from 32 to 16384 Kbps. The higher value corresponds to the higher video quality, but the beer bandwidth is required.
Note: The maximum limit of the max. bitrate value varies according to dierent camera plaorms. For certain cameras, the maximum limit is 8192 Kbps or 12288 Kbps.
Video Encoding:
The camera supports mulple video encodings types, such as H.264, H.265, MJPEG,
and MPEG4. Supported encoding type for dierent stream types may dier. H.265 is a new encoding technology. Compared with H.264, it reduces the transmission bitrate under the same resolution, frame rate and image quality.
Note: Selectable video encoding types may vary according to dierent camera modes.
H.264+ and H.265+:
- 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 esmate the HDD consumpon by its maximum average bitrate. Compared to H.264, H.264+ reduces storage by up to 50% 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 esmate the HDD consumpon by its maximum average bitrate. Compared to H.265, H.265+ reduces storage by up to 50% with the same maximum bitrate in most scenes.
You need to reboot the camera if you want to turn on or turn o 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.
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 funcons are not supported. For those funcons, corresponding interfaces will be hidden.
- H.264+/H.265+ can spontaneously adjust the bitrate distribuon 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 xed 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.
Prole:
When you select H.264 or H.265 as video encoding, you can set the prole. Selectable proles vary according to camera models.
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 funcon. 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 value of the smoothing is, the beer uency of the stream will be, though, the video quality may not be so sasfactory. The lower value of the smoothing is, the higher quality of the stream will be, though it may appear notuent.
