    Camera Settings Camera settings can only be changed by the web interface. It is possible to change the exposure time, the gain of the different color channels, image flipping and Bayer mode. Gain values for the color components can be used for color correction. Exposure sets the exposure time of the sensor.
  • Page 11: Streaming

    Streaming To watch the streamed image with the VideoLANClient VLC on a 64-Bit Windows system use the line: "C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" tcp://IPaddress:5001 --network-caching=0 Fill in the IP address of the camera and adjust the path to vlc.exe as needed. The typical setting in VLC looks like this: Be sure to set caching and IP address if not done so on the command line.

You can use the with e.g. Siemens Comfort-Panel rtsp://192.168.60.101:554/jpeg (It shows the Default IP-Adrdess of the LCAM) Important: The RTSP-Protocol allow maximum Pixels up to 2000. Therefore we recommend to use as maximum the picture resolution of 1920x1080 pixel (FullHD) 3.6.3 Live stream in the browser (Softwareversion 45d1eab)
