    The group prefix is a user-definable expression (for example, myhostname), however, it is required. This allows administrators to assign different user groups and, thus, variable user rights to multiple simultaneously installed LDAP clients of the same system design (e.g. Dallmeier cameras described here). The available group suffixes are fixed expressions:...

  • Page 33: Transfer Method

    The data packets are provided with the specified destination IP address and port number and transferred to exactly one receiver (client) in the network via a point-to-point connec- tion. The receiver will only receive the data packets if the appropriate application service is available at the specified port number. www.dallmeier.com...

    Dynamic Servers A dynamic server is created whenever a UDP or TCP data transmission is actively re- quested, for example, via the ActiveX-based Dallmeier control, the DaVid Protocol, the Real Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP) or via SMAVIA Viewing Client. The Dynamic servers tab provides information on the currently created dynamic servers.

    For more information about the WDR mode, see section “WDR Mode” on page 41. Only use the AE Preset “Fluorescent” for indoor scenes when using fluorescent lamps. When capturing outdoor scenes in conjunction with the AE Preset “Fluorescent”, this may result in excessive overexposure. www.dallmeier.com...
  • Page 39 (spectral characteristics) of the fluorescent light source changes within each AC power cycle (each zero crossing of the alternating voltage) which results in brightness variations (illumination level changes). Frequency mismatch normally does not occur when the PAL standard (25/50 fps) is used in conjunction with 50 Hz AC power. www.dallmeier.com...

    “Tri-Streaming” functionality (three streams with different quality). If more than one application is requesting encoder data, the network load and, hence, the required bandwith increase proportionally. In this case multicast configuration should be preferred since it only requires bandwidth for one stream. www.dallmeier.com...
  • Page 79: Analogue Video Output

    Due to the high resolution of the HD camera, flickering effects (aliasing) on sharp edges and fine textures may appear when displaying the analogue live video on older CRT (cathode ray tube) monitors that are equipped with interlaced technology. This effect is minimized for the recording and playback on a Dallmeier system. www.dallmeier.com...
