  • Page 17 Advanced Setting AC Frequency: Anti-flicker setting for environment with fluorescent light sources, image sensor needs to fit the frequency of light (power) source. For instance, the power frequency is 50Hz for most European countries, while 60Hz is typically for US. This setting is therefore regionally different. White Balance: the selections for different lightening condition, which is refereeing to color temperature.
  • Page 18 Video Setting Video Stream This tab provides detailed stream configurations. These settings can affect video size, quality. The maximum transmission performance can be expected under the condition of full network bandwidth. The camera supports up to 3 video streams. Each stream can be configured with following items. Video Format: H.264, MPEG4 and MJPEG are available for the selection.
  • Page 19 Intra Frame Period: is applied only in MPEG4 / H.264 which the video stream is composed of I- frames (full image information) and P-frames (motion-compensated difference information). This setting configures the Intra Frame Period which is the time period between 2 I-frames. The shorter period means the higher frequency of I-frame.

  • Page 22: Network Configuration

    Network Configuration The IP Camera acts as one of the network devices. It allows “IP address” to be assigned, so certain network functionalities can be implementable within this device. This section describes these configurations. Fundamentally, for instance, the IP assignment of the device can be done via DHCP server, static IP option or PPPoE to obtain IP from the service provider.
  • Page 23 Network Type There are 3 ways to configure IP address for the IP camera device, including DHCP, Static IP and PPPoE. Enable DHCP Service: The default setting is DHCP, which camera will be automatically given an IP address in a network with DHCP server. Use Static IP: Camera may also be manually assigned with a static IP address.
  • Page 24 Quality Service Quality Service provides network traffic management to guarantee the quality of services in higher priority, especially when network is insufficient. DSCP (Different Service Code Point) is a 6-bit IP header which defines the service level of the packet. According to the DSCP value, routers with PHB (Per-Hop Behavior) will define a specific class of traffic for the packet, in terms of bandwidth, latency, or loss rate, etc.
  • Page 25 Access IP Filter This setting also provides a basic security by filtering the accesses from other hosts. Enable this function and choose “Allow / Deny” of the listed IP addresses. Up to 15 IP address can be added in the list.
