Page 17: Wide Dynamic Range
Camera EV compensation Use this function to compensate the exposure value (EV). ● Selecting a positive value produces a brighter picture but it may cause overexposure. You can also consider using the Highlight correction function to get more brightness. ● Selecting a selecting a negative value produces a darker picture but it may cause underexposure. -

- Page 26 Camera Traffic shaping Traffic shaping sets the maximum network bit rate per encoder. Traffic shaping spreads network traffic bursts which helps the network infrastructure handle the traffic. In its turn, however, traffic shaping increases the latency. ● With traffic shaping set to Off, the stream is transmitted with minimum latency but with bursty network traffic.

Page 30: Recording
Recording TKH Security edge devices, such as the TrafficPTZ Ultimo, provide edge recording. This function makes it possible to record and store video locally - that is, at the edge device. Recorded video clips are stored on the microSD card inside the unit. From the Edge Recording page, the clips can be downloaded for further processing. - Page 31 The existing data on the SD card is erased. The unit reboots. TKH Security advises to use high-grade, highly-durable microSD cards. Note that microSD cards are limited to the number of write cycles ranging from 1000 (off-the-shelf high-grade card MLC or TLC NAND) to 100.000 (4 GB industrial SLC NAND). Intensive usage will eventually wear out the card.

Page 38: Certificate Information
Device Secure connections With HTTPS implemented and activated, a safe exchange of data between the unit and a web browser is ensured. Information transported over the network - for example, device settings and user credentials - is encrypted to protect it against intrusions and infections that can compromise the security and privacy of the information. -
Page 39: User Management
Out of the box, the unit is freely accessible - that is, when you connect to the web server you are not prompted to log on. To prevent unauthorised access, TKH Security recommends that you implement user authentication. This is done by creating user accounts and activating user login. -
Page 40: Snmp
The SNMP Agent is MIB-2 compliant and supports versions 1 and 2c of the SNMP protocol. Note: The TrafficPTZ Ultimo includes SNMP support for its Image Quality monitor and Tamper Detect functions. A trap is sent when bad image quality or camera tampering is detected and another one when the situation returns to normal. - Page 41 Device Traps A TrafficPTZ Ultimo alarm status change generates a trap which can be caught by any SNMP manager. The unit can, for example, send traps on the occurrence of Image Quality and Camera Tampering events. Variables, which can be read from the unit's MIB through an SNMP manager, indicate why the alarm occurred.
