The Camera Settings page is where you configure the individual IP and analog camera settings such as camera name,
onscreen display, PTZ settings, video settings, recording quality and motion and video masks. This page is identical
whether you are configuring an IP or an analog camera, but certain features might be unavailable depending on the type
of camera you are configuring. The following features are available on the Camera Settings page:
1. Use the Configuration tree to select the camera that you want to configure.
2. A live view of the selected camera is displayed.
3. Basic information about the camera is listed.
4. The Camera Name field allows you to change the name of the camera as it appears throughout exacqVision.
5. The On-Screen Display section allows you to select the information displayed in the camera's window on the live
page, the location in the window where it is displayed, and the font of the displayed text. Select one or more
items to display, and then select the position of the items. Click Font to change the appearance of the text.
6. The Multistreaming feature (not available in exacqVision Start) appears only for cameras that support
multistreaming. It allows you to create streams with different video settings or regions of interest from a single
camera view. For example, you might want to limit video quality for remote clients while displaying the same
camera in high quality for local clients. Each stream can have custom recording schedules, storage rules, and
event triggers.
Each camera has a different limit to the number of streams that can be added. The drop-down list shows the
next context (stream) number available; click Add Stream to name the new context. You can then adjust the
quality settings for the stream, or modify the Crop Window section (see the next page) to create a region of
interest. The new stream is listed in the Configuration tree as a child of the main camera. In the Live site tree, a
stream with a specific region of interest is listed as a separate camera; a stream with different video settings is
listed as a child, and the parent is labeled with a yellow star. To delete a stream, select it in the tree and click
Delete Stream.
7. See the "PTZ Configuration" section of this manual for details about the PTZ section of the Camera Settings page.
The rest of the Camera Settings page is discussed on the following page.
