    Series of Camera Domes. These units should only be installed by a qualified technician using approved materials in conformance with federal, state, and local codes. Read these instructions thoroughly before beginning an installation. Always refer to Vicon’s website to assure you have the most up-to- date manual, www.vicon-security.com.

  • Page 7: Key Features

    1.2 Key Features • Brilliant video quality The network camera offers the highly efficient H.264 video compression, which drastically reduces bandwidth and storage requirements without compromising image quality. Motion JPEG is also supported for increased flexibility. • Triple streams The network camera can deliver triple video streams simultaneously at full frame rate in all resolutions up to 1920 x 1080 using Motion JPEG and H.264 (or MPEG-4).

  • Page 11: Network Connection And Ip Assignment

    2.3 Network Connection and IP assignment The network camera is designed for use on an Ethernet network and requires an IP address for access. Most networks today have a DHCP server that automatically assigns IP addresses to connected devices. By the factory default, your camera is set to obtain the IP address automatically via DHCP server.

  • Page 12: Operation

    3. Operation The network camera can be used with Windows® operating system and browsers. The recommended browsers are Internet Explorer®, Safari®, Firefox®, Opera® and Google® Chrome with Windows. NOTE: To view streaming video in Microsoft® Internet Explorer, set your browser to allow ActiveX controls.

  • Page 13: Access From The Internet

    3.2. Access from the internet Once connected, the network camera is accessible on your local network (LAN). To access the network camera from the Internet you must configure your broadband router to allow incoming data traffic to the network camera. To do this, enable the NAT-traversal feature, which will attempt to automatically configure the router to allow access to the network camera.

  • Page 14: Live View Page

    3.4 Live View Page The live view page comes in several screen modes, for example 1920x1080, 1280x1024, 1280x720, 800x600, 704x480 (576), 640x480, 352x240 (288) and 320x240.

  • Page 15: Network Camera Setup

    3) Video Streams The network camera provides several images and video stream formats. Your requirements and the properties of your network will determine the type you use. The Live View page of the network camera provides access to H.264, MPEG-4 and Motion JPEG video streams and to the list of available video streams.

  • Page 16: Basic Configuration

    3.5.1 Basic Configuration You can see the device information in this information page.

  • Page 17: Users

     Enable WS-Security: Do not check this box to connect and monitor the network camera through Vicon’s viewing software using drivers older than 935. Note: WS-Security is an open format for signing and encryption of message parts, for supplying credentials in the form of security tokens, and for security passing those tokens in a message.

  • Page 18: Network

    2) Network The network camera supports both IP version 4 and IP version 6. Both versions may be enabled simultaneously, and at least one version must always be enabled. When using IPv4, the IP address for the network camera can be set automatically via DHCP, or a static IP address can be set manually. If IPv6 is enabled, the network camera receives an IP address according to the configuration in the network router.

  • Page 19: Video & Image

    3) Video & Image • Stream1 Setting Codec: The codec settings are separated into MPEG4 and H.264. H.264 is also known as MPEG-4 Part 10. This is the new generation compression standard for digital video. This function offers higher video resolution than Motion JPEG or MPEG-4 at the same bit rate and bandwidth, or the same quality video at a lower bit rate.
  • Page 20 Select the GOP (Group of Picture) size. If users want to have a high quality of fast image one by one, decrease the value. For the purpose of general monitoring, do not change a basic value. Such act may cause a problem to the system performance. Vicon recommends that GOP be the same as the fps.

  • Page 21: Date & Time

    • Stream2 Setting Sometimes the image size is large due to low light or complex scenery. Adjusting the frame rate and quality helps to control the bandwidth and storage used by the Motion JPEG video stream in these situations. Limiting the frame rate and quality optimizes bandwidth and storage usage, but may give poor image quality.

Only certain IP addresses and port numbers should be used for multicast streams. •...
  • Page 54  UPnP The network camera includes support for UPnP™. UPnP is enabled by default, so the network camera is automatically detected by operating systems and clients that support this protocol. Enter a name in the Friendly name field. Note: UPnP must be installed on your workstation if running Windows XP. To do this, open the Control Panel from the Start Menu and select Add/Remove Programs.
  • Page 55 The main benefits of a QoS-aware network are: The ability to prioritize traffic and thus allow critical flows to be served before flows with lesser priority. Greater reliability in the network, due to the control of the amount of bandwidth an application may use, and thus control over bandwidth races between applications.
  • Page 56  NAT A broadband router allows devices on a private network (LAN) to share a single connection to the Internet. This is done by forwarding network traffic from the private network to the “outside,” that is, the Internet. Security on the private network (LAN) is increased since most broadband routers are pre-configured to stop attempts to access the private network (LAN) from the public network/Internet.
  • Page 57 • NAT traversal Settings Enable: Click this button to enable NAT traversal. When enabled, the network camera attempts to configure port mapping in a NAT router on your network, using UPnP. Note that UPnP must be enabled in the network camera (see System>Network>UPnP). Enter a NAT router and enter the external port number for the router in the field provided.
  • Page 58 Zeroconf is built on three core technologies: • Assignment of numeric network addresses for networked devices (link-local address auto configuration) • Automatic resolution and distribution of computer hostnames (multicast DNS) • Automatic location of network services, such as printing devices through DNS service discovery.
