y BLC (Back Light Compensation)
Under severe bright “back light” conditions, the target object w ill show dark, which hides object detail. Set this switch to “ON” for compensation for this phenomenon. The target object should appear with more detail after enabling this setting.
y AGC (Automatic Gain Control)
Set this switch to “ON” to enable this automatic video gain adjustment. Under severe/excessive illumination conditions, the camera video may saturate. Enabling this feature will automatically lower the video amplifier gain, improving video quality. This setting also compensates for low light conditions. If the camera is subject to under exposure, or overly dark illumination conditions, the camera will automatically increase video amplifier gain, improving video quality.

y FL or F/L (Fickerless)
Set this switch to “ON” to prevent flicker from the follow ing AC Power conditions:
- Using an NTSC camera in a region with 50 Hz AC power, or a PAL camera in a region with 60 Hz AC power may cause a visible “video flicker.”
This is outside of normal power conditions for the two aforementioned video standards. Thus the improper 10 Hz differentiation is the cause of the “flicker.”
y D/N (Day & Night) - Available only for Day & Night camera module
Set this switch to “ON” to enable the camera’s day & night feature set. Under very low light conditions, the camera automatically switches to “Nigh t Mode/Black an d White M ode,” delivering daylight quality Black & White video.
y DSS (Digital Slow Shutter) - Available only for Day & Night camera module
Turning this switch “ON”, tells the camera to sacrifice the video refresh rate in order to compensate for ultra low light conditions, improving th e brightness and sharpness of the video.
y ZOOM (Digital Zoom) - Available only for Day & Night camera module
Set switch to “ON” to enable digital zoom.
y DC Level - Available only for Day & Night camera module
For adjusting output video DC levels.

3. Connecting XNET to Network

XNET supports LAN, xDSL, and Cable modem. It also supports shared IP environments where a single IP address is shared by two or more IP devices. Refer to [IP-Installer User’s Guide] for details of setting the IP address for XNET.

3.1. Connecting to LAN

2. Install XNET and connect to LAN.
XNET
Client PC
3. Test the ability to receive video data when connecting to XNET using XNET-NVR.
4. In order to access each unit from outside the local area network, each device must have a unique RTSP (Real Time Stream Protocol) and HTTP port number. For example, when one or more IP video products are connected through a IP sharing device (i.e. router) and then to a larger network (i.e. the internet). The network administrator must also configure your IP sharing device for “port forwarding”. This enables the IP sharing device to forward packet data with unique port number (RTSP and HTTP) to the unique internal IP address (local IP address). If you only plan to access multiple units from within a local area network, you do not need to change the RTSP and HTTP port numbers, unless other IP sharing devices sit in-between the client and the IP video products. For more detailed information regarding the use of IP sharing

device, refer to the support document [Use of Private IP network using IP-sharing-
device] found on the Download Section of the CNBTEC web site.

3.2. Connecting to an xDSL/Cable Modem

1. Follow through steps 1 through 4 in Section 2.5 to assign IP address and other network parameters to XNET.
2. Install XNET and connect it to xDSL or Cable modem as in Figure 3-2.

XNET
Figure 3-2. Connecting the XNET to ADSL/Cable Modem
When a static IP address is assigned to the xDSL or Cable modem, using IP-installer, invoke the same method as “assigning an IP address on a LAN.” To enable email notification of IP address changes assign a “send to” e-mail address using IP-installer.
Client PC
When connecting XNET/XNET-Wireless to xDSL or Cable modem, usually a straight LAN cable is required. But since some modems have crossover connections, in this case, you should use a crossover LAN cable. Please contact your service provider for detailed information.

4. IP-Installer

XNET/XNET-Wireless needs IP network parameters for connection to the network (Internet/Intranet). IP-Installer is a PC program for the initial network configuration to IP video products such as Network Camera or A/V Server. IP-Installer is provided in a CD supplied with XNET/XNET-Wireless or it can be downloaded from “
Detailed information of Installing and running IP-installer can be found in [IP­installer user’s guide]

4.1. Main window of IP-Installer

www.cnbtec.com”.
Figure 4-1. IP Installer
All the basic network parameters needed for the initial connection to IP video products can be assigned by IP-Installer. Once the basic parameters are assigned and the initial connection is successfully made, you can connect to the administration page for more sophisticated control of the network parameters and other operational parameters. Refer to Chapter 5 for more details of the administration page.

5. Configuring XNET in Administrative Mode

5.1. Log On

6.2. Trouble Shooting

6.2.1. After XNET/XNET-Wireless is successfully installed.
XNET/XNET-Wireless in viewing mode, neither channel name nor video is display and eventually timeout message is shown up.
Ö Check the power and network connection of XNET/XNET-Wireless.
To check if the network is properly operating, open the browser and try to connect to any server: Example) or open the MS-DOS Prompt and type the following: Example) ping Then press Enter. If you see the “Repl y from …” message it means that the network is working properly. To check if the XNET/XNET-Wireless is connected, open the MS-DOS Prompt and type the following.
ping [the IP of the server]
Example) ping 192.168.1.112
If you see the “Reply from …” message, it means that the server is properly connected. If you do not see a Reply message, check if the network cable and power cable are properly connected.
6.2.2. After Successfully Connecting to the XNET/XNET-Wireless
Video movement is slow.
Ö In Basic Setup of Admin Mode, lower the “Quality”. High quality means more data. You
can also set the “Max. upload rate” to higher value. But this value must be lower than the maximum upload speed of your network. For example, if the maximum uploading
http://www.yahoo.com
www.yahoo.com
bandwidth of the network is 400Kbps, set the total “Max. upload rate” as 384Kbps. If you set it higher, the video image can be corrupted with artifacts. Ask your network manager or ISP for maximum uploading bandwidth of the network.
The image is dull and I see green, pink dots.
Ö This could be caused by performance limitation of the PC. Do not run too many programs
while running viewer program. The other reason could be missing data while transmission from XNET/XNET-Wireless.
Mosaic phenomenon.
Mosaic phenomenon occurs when not enough network bandw idth is available considerin g th e resolution and frame rate of the video. Example is 704x480 video with low Max. upload rate. Users are recommended to adjust resolution and frame rates to lower values for lower bandwidth network.
