Camera Setting Image Setting Brightness: the luminance of image view. Default value is 8; adjustable from 0 to 16. Contrast: the ratio of luminance of white to black. Default value is 8; adjustable from 0 to 16. Saturation: colorfulness of a color related to its own brightness. Default value is 8, adjustable from 0 to 16.
Page 20
Day/Night Day/Night Mode: Switch the video images for Day (plenty of light) or Night (Low light) scene. In default “Auto” mode, camera will switch to Day or Night vision according to the light intensity. The Day / Night modes contain 2 actions: switching IR Filter On / Off, and image hue Color / Mono. In day mode, the IR filter is switched in to avoid the image sensor from receiving the infrared, thus the true color image is provided.

Video Setting Video Stream This tab provides detailed stream configurations. These settings can affect video size, quality. The maximum transmission performance can be expected under the condition of full network bandwidth. The camera supports up to 3 video streams. Each stream can be configured with following items.
Page 23
Video Format: H.264, MPEG4 and MJPEG are available for the selection. The demand of bandwidth and storage requirement differs from the selection of video format. In the request of same video quality, H.264 contributes to less bandwidth and storage requirement, which can be more efficient than MPEG4 or MJPEG.
Page 24
Video Overlay The camera supports stamping text information on the video images. The options of the date/time string or/and a line of text message (e.g. camera name or location) are available for displaying on the images. Privacy Mask Privacy Mask can block out the specific areas from view. The blocked areas will not be seen in both live view and recorded video clips and the total of 8 profiles can be created to the list.
Network Configuration The IP Camera acts as one of the network devices. It allows user to configure the network functionalities based on applications. This section will describe the network configurations. Fundamentally, for instance, the IP assignment of the device can be done via DHCP server, static IP option or PPPoE to obtain IP from the service provider.
Page 26
Enable PPPoE Service: This service is usually provided by an ISP (Internet Service Provider). IP Camera can establish a dial-up connection to the ISP and then get connected to Internet. (Only IPv4) NOTE1: If you would like to connect camera with IPv6 address, please note that this only works if your network environment and hardware equipment support IPv6.
Page 27
Quality Service Quality Service provides network traffic management to guarantee the quality of services in higher priority, especially when network is insufficient. DSCP (Different Service Code Point) is a 6-bit IP header which defines the service level of the packet. According to the DSCP value, routers with PHB (Per-Hop Behavior) will define a specific class of traffic for the packet, in terms of bandwidth, latency, or loss rate, etc.

HTTP port / HTTPS port: By default, the HTTP and HTTPs ports are set to 80 and 443 respectively. They can also be assigned to another port number between 1025 and 65535. The HTTP port is basically provided for device’s webpage access. When the video format is set to MJPEG, user is able to retrieve the live video via HTTP URL, e.g.
