Chapter 2. Overview

2.1. BEWARD N13201 Overview

BEWARD N13201 is a compact 2-megapixel IP camera (Pic. 2.1) with a built-in Wi-Fi IEEE

802.11 b/g/n wireless interface, H.264/MPEG-4/MJPEG multi-stream video, a built-in microphone, the microSD/SDHC card slot, a highly sensitive CMOS image sensor with the WDR (Wide Dynamic Range) technology support.

Pic. 2.1

BEWARD N13201 makes possible viewing real-time video from any part of the world by means of the most standard operating systems and web browsers.

This camera supports X-Panner function which allows you to create up to 4 view areas with different resolutions. Besides you can create and customize different video profiles for more flexible and comfortable operation. Specifying characteristics such as a compression type, a view area, a resolution and at al. for each profile, you get optimal image quality according to current channel bandwidth.

There are H.264, MPEG-4, MJPEG compression types the camera supports and simultaneous multi-streaming can be provided.

H.264 (also known as MPEG-4 Part 10) offers higher video resolution than Motion JPEG or MPEG-4 at the same bit rate, or the same video quality at a lower bit rate.

Motion JPEG provides a high quality video stream but it requires relatively big channel capacity and enough free space for recording.

There are two ways to connect the camera to a network: 1) using a 10/100BASE-TX Ethernet wire interface; 2) using a Wi-Fi IEEE 802.11 b/g/n wireless interface. To make Wi-Fi connection process simpler the camera supports the WPS technology.

Chapter 3. Using Third Party Clients

N13201 Operations User Manual

NOTE:

When connecting to the camera trough Internet, the rate of connection (bit rate) depends on the parameters of a network access channel.

NOTE:

Detailed information about RTSP and profile setting is given in paragraphs 8.2.1, 9.1.2.

NOTE:

For getting frames you should be authorized.

Chapter 3. Using Third Party Clients

The N13201 supports RTSP/RTP streaming.

You can use RTSP client for getting access to video in H.264, MPEG-4, MJPEG. You can use real-time RTSP players such as VLC, Quick time, Real Player etc. as RTSP clients.

RTSP (Real Time Transfer Protocol) is a network control protocol designed for use in entertainment and communications systems to control streaming media servers. The protocol is used for establishing and controlling media sessions between end points. Clients of media servers issue VCR-like commands, such as play and pause, to facilitate real-time control of playback of media files from the server.

You can get the access to the stream via RTSP clients by the following command: rtsp://<IP>:<PORT>/<XXXX> where <IP> is the camera IP address, <PORT> is the camera RTSP port (default value - 554), <XXXX> is an ordinal number of profile which is used for video stream viewing. For example, rtsp://192.168.0.99:554/video.pro. An encoding type (H.264/MPEG-

4/MJPEG) for this profile should be set in profile settings. Go to [SETTING] – Live View – Video – Profile. Also, you can create several profiles with different encoding type, resolution and viewing area.

For getting separate frames in JPEG format use the following command: http://<IP>:<PORT>/cgi-bin/view/image?res=<Res> where <IP> is the camera IP address, <PORT> is the camera HTTP port (default value is 80), <Res> – the resolution of a frame. For example, http://192.168.0.99/cgi-bin/view/image?res=320x240. The following resolutions are available: 1920х1080, 1280х1024, 1280х720, 1024x768, 640х480, 320х240.
