    VIVOTEK Overview VIVOTEK’s CD9381-HNVF2 is a vandal-proof network camera specifically designed for prisons and correctional facilities. With up to 30 fps at 5-Megapixel resolution, 940nm IR illuminators, two-way audio, and available in either fixed lens (-HNVF2) or vari-focal (-HNTV), the camera is the most feature rich prison cell surveillance camera available today.
  • Page 5: Read Before Use

    VIVOTEK Read Before Use The use of surveillance devices may be prohibited by law in your country. The Network Camera is not only a high-performance web-ready camera but can also be part of a flexible surveillance system. It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that the operation of such devices is legal before installing this unit for its intended use.
  • Page 6 VIVOTEK NOTE: Camera Hardware Preventative Maintenance: 1. Visual inspection of all major components including accessories, cabling and connections where accessible for signs of deterioration or damage. 2. Check and clean cameras, lenses and housings inside and out as needed. • Please do not scratch, damage, or leave fingerprints on the dome/front cover and/or lens because this may decrease image quality.
  • Page 7 VIVOTEK IMPORTANT: 1. The product must be installed and protected in a location that is not easily accessible, and is away from impacts or heavy vibration. For example, at the location where the surveillance cameras are looking down or installed at high positions such as on a wall, or at least 3 meters above the ground.
  • Page 8 VIVOTEK IMPORTANT: For some customers who already have their own web site or web control application, the Network Camera/Video Server can be easily integrated through URL syntax. This section specifies the external HTTP-based application programming interface. The HTTP-based camera interface provides the functionality to request a single image, control camera functions (PTZ, output relay etc.), and get and set internal parameter values.
  • Page 9 VIVOTEK Hardware Reset The reset button is used to reset the system or restore the factory default settings. Sometimes resetting the system can return the camera to normal operation. If the system problems remain after reset, press the reset button longer to restore the factory settings and install again. Reset: Press and release the recessed reset button with a straightened paper clip.

  • Page 79 VIVOTEK ■ Maximum frame rate This limits the maximum refresh frame rate per second. Set the frame rate higher for smoother video quality and for recognizing moving objects in the field of view. If the power line frequency is set to 50Hz, the frame rates are selectable at 1fps, 2fps, 3fps, 5fps, 8fps, 10fps, 15fps, 20fps, and 25fps.
  • Page 80 VIVOTEK Smart stream III ■ Dynamic Intra frame period High quality motion codecs, such as H.265 or H.264, utilize the redundancies between video frames to deliver video streams at a balance of quality and bit rate. The encoding parameters are summarized and illustrated below. The I-frames are completely self- referential and they are largest in size.
  • Page 81 VIVOTEK With the H.265 codec in an optimal scenario and when Dynamic Intra frame is combined with the Smart Stream function, an 80% of bandwidth saving can be achieved compared with using H.264 without enabling these bandwidth-saving features. ■ Smart FPS In a static scene, the algorithm puts old frames in queue when no motions occur in scene.
  • Page 82 VIVOTEK Smart codec effectively reduces the quality of the whole or the non-interested areas on a ■ screen and therefore reduces the bandwidth consumed. You can manually specify the video quality for the foreground and the background areas. Slide bar to the right - higher quality in the ROI areas Slide bar to the left - higher quality in the non-ROI areas.
  • Page 83 VIVOTEK As the result, the lower screen is constantly displayed in high details, while the upper half is transmitted using a lower-quality format. Although the upper half is transmitted using a lower quality format, you still have an awareness of what is happening on the whole screen. non-ROI: lower-quality ROI:...
  • Page 84 VIVOTEK Bit rate control ■ Constrained bit rate: A complex scene generally produces a larger file size, meaning that higher bandwidth will be needed for data transmission. The bandwidth utilization is configurable to match a selected level, resulting in mutable video quality performance. The bit rates are selectable at the following rates: 20Kbps, 30Kbps, 40Kbps, 50Kbps, 64Kbps, 128Kbps, 256Kbps, 512Kbps, 768Kbps, 1Mbps, 2Mbps, 3Mbps, 4Mbps, 6Mbps, 8Mbps, 10Mbps, 12Mbps, 14Mbps, ~ to 40Mbps.
  • Page 85 VIVOTEK Fixed quality: On the other hand, if Fixed quality is selected, all frames are transmitted with the same quality; bandwidth utilization is therefore unpredictable. The video quality can be adjusted to the following settings: Medium, Standard, Good, Detailed, and Excellent. You can also select Customize and manually enter a value.
  • Page 86 VIVOTEK If the JPEG mode is selected, the Network Camera sends consecutive JPEG images to the client, producing a moving effect similar to a filmstrip. Every single JPEG image transmitted guarantees the same image quality, which in turn comes at the expense of variable bandwidth usage. Because the media contents are a combination of JPEG images, no audio data is transmitted to the client.

    VIVOTEK Network > QoS (Quality of Service) Quality of Service refers to a resource reservation control mechanism, which guarantees a certain quality to different services on the network. Quality of service guarantees are important if the network capacity is insufficient, especially for real-time streaming multimedia applications. Quality can be defined as, for instance, a maintained level of bit rate, low latency, no packet dropping, etc.
  • Page 106 VIVOTEK QoS/DSCP (the DiffServ model) DSCP-ECN defines QoS at Layer 3 (Network Layer). The Differentiated Services (DiffServ) model is based on packet marking and router queuing disciplines. The marking is done by adding a field to the IP header, called the DSCP (Differentiated Services Codepoint). This is a 6-bit field that provides 64 different class IDs.
