15 Configuring Camera Settings Using a Browser
To configure camera video quality settings:
TIP: Change only one camera image quality setting at a time before clicking Save & Apply
so you can judge the effects.
1. Configure the following, as needed:
• Internet speed: Select the upload speed of your Internet connection. If your Inter-
net connection is faster than 1.5Mbps, select 1.5Mbps.
• Adjust resolution and frame rate automatically: Select to allow the camera to
adjust the video resolution and frame rate based on available bandwidth.
• Use the following values: Select to manually select the video resolution and frame
rate for the camera. Note that the image quality may decrease if there is not enough
bandwidth for your selected settings.
• Resolution: Manually select either 320x240, 640x480, 1024x768, or 1280x800
resolution. Higher resolution will give you a better, more detailed picture, but re-
quires more bandwidth. Lower resolution allows the camera to maintain a higher
frame rate when available bandwidth is low.
• Frame rate: Manually select the frame rate between 30fps (highest) and 1fps (low-
est). 30fps is real time video, meaning that movement in the image will appear
smooth, with no choppiness.
• Favor/Preference: Select whether you would like the camera to reduce the image
quality or the frame rate when bandwidth increases or decreases. Select Video Mo-
tion to have the camera maintain the frame rate and reduce image quality when
bandwidth is insufficient. Select Image Quality to have the camera maintain image
quality and reduce frame rate when bandwidth is insufficient. Select Better Quality
to have the camera maintain frame rate and increase quality when bandwidth is suf-
ficient. Select Best Quality to have the camera maintain the frame rate and in-
crease quality to the maximum speed of the connection.
• Brightness: Manually adjust the brightness of the image between 10 (highest) and
1 (lowest).
• Sharpness: Manually adjust the sharpness of the image between 10 (highest) and
1 (lowest).
• Low Light Sensitivity: Set the camera's sensitivity in low light environments be-
tween Very High (highest), High, and Normal (lowest).
• Video color: Select Colored to view the camera in color or select Black & white.
• Video flip: Select Video Flip to flip the camera image vertically and horizontally or
select Normal for the normal orientation. This is useful if the camera has been
mounted to a wall or ceiling upside down.
• Outdoor video/Indoor video/Indoor video + sun light: Select Outdoor video
for well lit environments. Select Indoor Video if you notice strip lines in the image
or if the picture is too dark on the Outdoor video setting. Select Indoor video +
sunlight if the picture is too bright on the Indoor Video setting.
• 60Hz light freq/50Hz light freq: If necessary, select 60Hz light freq or 50Hz light
freq to adjust the camera for the frequency of your indoor lighting. These settings
are not available when the camera is set to Oudoor video.
• Enable audio microphone/Disable audio microphone: Select Disable audio
microphone to disable the built-in microphone in the camera or select Enable
audio microphone to enable it.
• Enable time display/Disable time display: Select Disable time display to turn
off video time stamps or Enable time display to turn on video time stamps.
2. Click Save & Apply to apply the settings to the camera. You may need to reconnect to
the camera after making settings changes.
