Date Menu

The date menu page allows the user
to synchronise the camera time to
a SNTP server. In this instance it is
necessary to have the PC connected
to a network.
If a network connection is not
available it is possible to synchronise
the camera to the PC time by ticking
the "Sync Camera to PC Time" check
box and pressing the submit button.
The "UTC Offset" can be altered to
align the camera time with the local
time zone. To align the camera to the
actual PC time the "UTC Offset" should
be made same as the value displayed
in the "PC UTC Offset" field.

Update Menu

It is possible to update the firmware
of the encoder. There are three steps
to updating the firmware, as shown
on the right.
Only update the encoder
with files that have
been approved by Visual
Engineering.
Use of other files will render
the encoder inoperable.
Following a Submit the encoder will update the firmware and display the following text:
Programming in Progress...Do not remove power
Wait until the web page clears this text before trying to move away from the current web page or
powering off the camera. Updates typically take approx 3 minutes to complete.
Important: To fully ensure the upgrade has finished it is advised to refresh the web page
and check the banner displays
video before switching off the power.
It is advised that following a firmware update that the Restore Defaults button is pressed, this
will revert the encoder back to a default start state. The IP address of the encoder will revert to
its default IP address of 192.168.1.195 following a power cycle.
Pressing the Reset button will completely re-start the encoder.
