Power Connection
The camera can be powered from either 12VDC or PoE. If it is powered from 12VDC, connect an adaptor which can
supply the camera with enough power. Also, refer to the characteristics of the polarity according to the image below.

Page 18
Connections
Network Connection
There are many different ways that you can connect the camera to your network depending on your applications’
requirements. You should always set the camera’s network settings according to your network configurations. The
following diagrams depict some typical applications with guidelines on network settings. For more information on the
network settings, always consult your network administrator or ISP as required.
Type 1: Direct Connection to a PC
Connect the camera directly to a PC using a standard Ethernet cable connected to a LAN connector.
To access the camera, your PC must be on the same network as the camera. The default IP address of the camera is
the static one, 192.168.1.168 with the subnet mask, 255.255.255.0. If the default static IP address cannot be used on
your network, use Illustra Connect to reassign an IP address to your camera , or reassign the IP address of your PC to
be on the same network as the camera. Then, you can access the camera from your PC.
Type 2: Connecting Camera(s) to a Local Area Network (LAN)
To add the camera(s) to an existing LAN, connect the camera(s) to a hub or a switch on your network.
Your camera has DHCP enabled as a default, so IP address is supposed to be assigned by a DHCP server. However, if
you do not have a DHCP server on your network or if your DHCP server fails to assign an IP address, the IP address of
your camera will default to 192.168.1.168 with the subnet mask, 255.255.255.0. Use Illustra Connect to reassign an IP
address to your camera if the IP address is not on the same network as your PC.
Type 3: Remote Connection via the Internet
If the network where the camera resides is connected to the Internet, you can also provide remote access to your
camera over the Internet.
Typically a broadband router has a built-in DHCP function to assign a local IP address to your camera. You can
alternatively assign a fixed IP address to the camera to prevent it from frequent changes.
12 Installation and Operation Manual
Page 19
Connections
To access the camera from a local PC, simply use the local IP address of the camera.
To enable remote access, you must configure your router/firewall to forward an incoming request to that fixed local IP
address of the camera. Therefore, when an external host sends a request to access your camera, the request will first
reach the router’s external IP address and then be forwarded to the local IP address of the camera.
Port forwarding is based on the service you want to provide. For example, forward HTTP port to enable remote web
access to your camera, or RTSP port to enable access to video/audio streams from the camera.
Accessing the Camera for the First Time
The camera comes with a web-based setup utility, allowing you to view the video of the camera and configure the
camera for the optimal use in your environment.
To access the camera’s web-based control utility, you need a PC that meets the following requirements:
Operating System: Windows Vista or Windows 7, Windows 8 and Mac OS
Browser: Internet Explorer Version 8.0 or later, Chrome, Safari and Firefox
CPU: Intel Core 2 duo P8400 or higher
VGA: DirectX 3D supported (*If Direct3D Acceleration is disabled, type ‘dxdiag’ from Start > Run on your
computer, and check the DirectX features.)
RAM: DDR3 4GB or more
Others: Java (http://java.com/en/download/index.jsp) + QuickTime
Then, take the following steps to connect your PC to the camera.
Step 1: Make the connection
For the initial setup, connect one end of an Ethernet cable to the RJ45 connector of the camera and the other end to the
LAN port on your PC.
Step 2: Configure your PC’s IP address
Configure the IP address of your PC by reference to the section, Network Connection on the previous page.
Step 3: Verify the connection between the PC and the IP Camera.
1. Launch Command Prompt by clicking the Start menu, Programs, Accessories and then Command Prompt.
2. At the prompt window, type ping x.x.x.x, where x.x.x.x is the IP address of the camera.
3. If the message of “Reply from…” appears, it means the connection is established.

Corridor mode: It rotates the video image to 90 degrees in an area that is more vertical than horizontal in
shape such as staircase, hallway, and aisle to show a vertically oriented video stream to contain the areas of
the interest more visibly. The options are ‘Normal’, ‘Left (-90°)’, and ‘Right (+90°)’.
NOTE
Sharpness is affected by characteristics of the image on the camera. Therefore, the right value for sharpness is
comparative, so configure the sharpness appropriately according to your discretion.
NOTE
Image rotation using high resolution(1080p) may lower the frame rate.
Setup
Exposure mode: Selecting the right option in Exposure mode depends on the installation site’s environment.
Three modes are available like below.
Auto: It automatically adjusts the shutter speed within the range (Range: 1/60 ~ 1/10,000) from the user
defining minimum shutter speed to the pre-defined maximum shutter speed(1/10,000) depending on the
lighting condition.
*The shutter speed will vary from 1/60 per second to the degree the user sets as the maximum shutter
speed.
Manual: The shutter speed is fixed by a user.
Flickerless: It automatically adjusts the shutter speed depending on the flickering frequency. If you intend to
reduce light flicker on the image, select this mode between the two options(50Hz or 60Hz) depending on
country.
Maximum AGC: It maintains appropriate exposure on the image by automatically adjusting gain under low light
condition. When gain is increased, noise and bitrate are elevated as well. Thus, users may need to set the
maximum AGC (Range: 0 ~ 100) while considering the prevention of the excessive increase of noise and data
size.
Exposure adjustment: Correct exposure value should be selected from the list box to adjust the target
brightness for the automatic exposure setting. The high value makes the image brighter, and the low value
makes the image darker. Select the value as follows: +1.0, +0.6, +0.3, 0, –0.3, –0.6, –1.0(EV)
Back light compensation (BLC): This feature allows the camera to control the exposure level of the entire
image to properly expose the subject of interest in the foreground.
Digital slow shutter (DSS): It allows the proper exposure in low light condition even if the frame rate may be
dropped. Turn on or off the digital slow shutter depending on your needs.

What is OSD?
OSD burns information into streaming visuals before it gets compressed, thus it prohibits manipulation or alteration of
the events’ time. It allows the file to become a reliable evidence as it discourages intentional manipulation of the date
and time for an alibi.
The setting of the OSD is applied to stream 1. To add OSD, select the Enable OSD checkbox after the setting, and click
the Apply button.
Text configuration: Select the items (Date, time and name) to be included in OSD. To include a specific name or
info, type the desired text in the text box. To display millisecond (time), check the ‘Enable milliseconds for time
display’ checkbox.
Text position: Set the position of OSD on the image. Predefined positions are provided as the options as well as
the manual configuration of the position.
NOTE
It is recommended to use normalized X, Y instead of predefined positions (left-top, left-bottom, right-top, right-bottom).
Selecting same predefined positions on all three categories may cause text overlapping depending on the image
resolution or the position of each text. Utilizing PREVIEW is highly encouraged to review if the configured positions are
placed appropriately in OSD.
Preview: Clicking the Preview button unfolds or folds the preview window. However, you need to press the Apply
button to view the applied settings on the preview window.

Setup
Stream
To apply one of the predefined encoder profiles to the actual streams, go to Setup > Video > Stream. The camera
supports two video stream types: H264 and MJPEG. H264 is a coding standard that highly compresses the video to
efficiently use the bandwidth but still provides considerably good video quality. MJPEG uses JPEG still images in the
video to give excellent image quality, but it consumes considerable amounts of bandwidth. MJPEG also consumes
more storage space than H264. You should configure the codec settings according to your needs while considering the
bandwidth of your network and the available storage space.
The expected codec usage: The expected codec usage is calculated automatically according to your
configuration parameters. Do not exceed the usage over 100%.
Enable streaming: Check the ‘Enable streaming’ box to enable streaming on the selected stream. Always keep
unused streams disabled.
Video codec: Select the video codec between MJPEG and H.264.
Resolution: The supported resolution in pixels for the current stream profile is listed on the drop down box.
Select the desired resolution. If one of the video streams is set to 1080P, the other video stream resolution
cannot have more than 1088 resolution pixels horizontally.
Maximum FPS: Define the desired frame rate per second.
H.264 CODEC Configuration
GOP: This parameter defines the length of the group of pictures. If this value is set to 1, the video stream will only
have one I-frame. Keep this value high to minimize bandwidth.
Profile Identification: This option allows users to select between three different H.264 profiles. This directly
affects the quality of the video due to the amount of compression applied. Baseline profile provides maximum
compression to the video. High profile gives the best quality. Selecting the main profile balances between the
other two.
Rate Control: Choose a bit rate control to manage your bandwidth usage.
37
Page 44
Setup
Variable bitrate (VBR): VBR allows a higher bitrate (and therefore more storage space) to be allocated to
the more complex segments of media files while less space is allocated to less complex segments. It is used
when the system has enough storage and a high quality image is required. Image quality can be configured
as highest, high, normal, low and lowest.
Constant Bitrate (CBR): CBR mode maintains the defined bitrate level all the time.
MJPEG CODEC Configuration
JPEGquality: Enter a value from 1 to 100 to set the image quality. The higher the number is, the better the
image quality becomes.

generate the available IP for the device automatically. If you want to use a specific address, type the address in
the blank.
Port: Set the port number used for router to receive the streaming data from the product (no need for unicast).
‘18888’ is set for video data of stream 1, and ‘28888’ is for video data of stream 2.
Setup
TTL: Set the TTL value. If you set 1 for TTL, it means the packet will pass only in a subnet (no need for unicast).
NOTE
RTP multicast is not allowed for streaming even if the address and the port information are known.
How does auto configuration of IP address work?
As the session name for each RTP session is defined already on the server, your PC can get the stream by the ‘rtsp://
rtsp server ipaddress : port / rtp session name’ without the manual decision of IP address on the webpage.
What is TTL?
It’s the abbreviation of time to live. If data is sent out from the encoder via network and all of the packets are alive
permanently on the network, it will cause a big network load. TTL helps reduce the network load by controlling the time
of staying on network. For example, if you set the TTL as 50, the data will be deleted after passing by 50 routers.
NOTE
All other options are the same as Unicast.
