Page 5: F-Series Id Camera Installation
Refer to Camera Overview The F-Series ID cameras are components within the FLIR Thermal Fence. The video from the camera can be viewed over a traditional analog video network or it can be viewed by streaming it over an IP network using M-JPEG and H.264 encoding. -
Page 6: Installation Overview
An Ethernet connection is required for IP video streaming and for command and control communications. Several third-party video management systems are supported by FLIR IP cameras. Because these systems tend to evolve and change over time, contact the local FLIR representative or FLIR Technical Support for information. General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) GPIO The camera can receive a single input signal and can provide a single output signal. -

F-Series ID Camera Installation 1.3.2 Camera Mounting Accessories The following accessories are available for purchase from FLIR Systems, Inc. • Wall Mount Kit (500-0462-00) – The wall mount is designed to safely support loads up to 40 pounds (18 kg). The mount features a fully adjustable swivel head allowing 360 degree horizontal and 75 degree vertical adjustment. -
Page 8: Camera Placement
F-Series ID Camera Installation 1.3.5 Camera Placement The F-Series ID camera should be mounted upright on top of the mounting surface. Adhere to all local and industry standards, codes, and best practices. α For installations with multiple cameras with on-board video analytics, the fields of view of cameras should overlap in order to remove all dead zones in which a camera cannot see a target “head to Video Analytics toe”. -
Page 9: Removing The Back Cover
F-Series ID Camera Installation Use a thread locking compound such as Loctite 242 or equivalent with all metal to metal threaded connections. Once the holes are drilled in the mounting surface, install three (3) to five (5) 1/4-20 threaded fasteners into the base of the camera with thread-locking compound. Secure the camera to the mount with three (3) to five (5) 1/4-20 threaded fasteners as shown below. -

Video: By default, two video streams are enabled for the camera: Video 0 and Video 1. Both video streams are available for viewing from a client program such as FLIR Latitude, a stand-alone video player, or a third-party VMS (including ONVIF systems). - Page 35 Advanced Configuration By default, both streams use H.264 encoding. To modify parameters that affect a particular IP Video stream from the camera, select the appropriate link (for example, Video - 0). With the factory configuration, the default parameters provide high-quality full frame-rate video streams with reasonable bandwidth usage.

Page 36: Thermal Image Setup - Ir Page
Advanced Configuration The parameters in the Encoding section will have a significant impact on the quality and bandwidth requirements of the video stream. In general it is recommended that the default values are used initially, and then individual parameters can be modified and tested incrementally to determine if the bandwidth and quality requirements are met. - Page 37 Advanced Configuration page to refresh, including the image and all the parameter values (be patient, it may take some time).

In the background, a “negotiation” takes place to establish a session between the client (such as FLIR Latitude, a third party VMS, or video player) and the camera. The ports which form a session are negotiated using a protocol such as RTSP.
- Page 52 Advanced Configuration When the Rate Control parameter is set to VBR (Variable Bit Rate), the Bit Rate parameter is used as an upper limit bit rate and the system keeps the stream at or under the target bit rate. The I-Frame Interval parameter controls the number of P-frames used between I-frames. I-frames are full frames of video and the P-frames contain the changes that occurred since the last I-frame.
- Page 53 Advanced Configuration When the alarm source is Video Analytics the Alarm ID corresponds to the area or tripwire (1-8), as configured in the Setup menu. The Alarm ID is set sequentially during the Video Analytics Setup, setup for each alarm source. Refer to Alarm Actions: Just as there can be multiple sources of alarms, there are also a variety of actions or responses to these alarms.
- Page 54 Advanced Configuration When the Alarm Action is set to Capture Image File, a snapshot is stored when the alarm occurs. The image file can be stored locally in temporary storage (Store Local), over the camera network using FTP (file transfer protocol) or to a File network-attached storage device (NAS).
