1. Introduction

1.1. Overview

The XNET is a state-of-the-art network camera which transmits synchronized video and audio data in real time at D1 resolution and at full frame rates. Depending on which model you purchased the XNET offered with a standard Ethernet interface. Using MPEG4 CODEC technology, the XNET delivers high quality video via highly compressed data streams. Using TCP/IP based connections from remote location, the XNET may be monitored and/or controlled via the internet, or intranet. Unlike analog CCTV equipment, or DVRs, the XNET is easy to install. Often one can often take advantage of existing network infrastructure saving valuable installation labor and equipment costs. Based on CNBTEC’s Embedded Software Solution (Embedded Web Server, Embedded Streaming Server & Network Protocol), the XNET delivers unprecedented performance and stability. Weather your application is basic, or scaling to the enterprise, CNBTEC Network Video Recording Applications (XNET-NVR) offer highly reliable methods of managing your security video.

2.3. Physical description

2.3.1. Configuration DIP Switches
Depending on which model you purchased, the XNET network dome camera comes with one of two optional modules (fixed focal type or vari-focal type). Figure 2-1 illustrates exterior view and internal parts. Accommodating various camera site requirements, the camera module can be configured to enable/disable various video features.

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.

XNET Network Dome Camera User’s Guide
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.
y Analog Video Output
Connect a handheld monitor to assist in adjust the viewing angle and focus right at the camera.
A standard RCA video cable adapter is included with network camera.

This is a quick reference for experienced installers. For more detailed information please refer to the installation manual and or the CNBTEC home page (
Download Center menu provides updates for Software, Firmware, and Manuals. Registration is required.
Connect XNET to the LAN using one of the following methods
1) If you have PoE(Power Over Ethernet) Adaptor, connect the network camera and PC as illustrated in Figure 2-5. The power and network connection are made using a single LAN cable.
Note: CNBTEC cameras use proprietary PoE technology. Using a third party PoE
product with CNBTEC cameras will damage the camera and void the warranty.

Apply power to XNET Install “IP installer” and “XNET-NVR” on your PC.
Detailed information for installing these programs can be found in [IP-Installer User’s
Guide] and [XNET-NVR User’s Guide], respectively.
Assign IP address to XNET using IP installer.
Identify the type of the network environment and set up IP address. Detailed process of setting up IP address can be found in [IP-Installer User’s Guide]. If network type is xDSL or Cable modem you need supplementary information provided by your ISP.
Connect to XNET in Administrator Mode for initial parameter set-up.
The factory default state affords the ability to connect and configure the device in low bandwidth environments. To configure the system for your environment use the administration mode. Find detailed information for using administration mode in section 5:
Configuring XNET in Administrative Mode. The following set-up table briefly defines
setup parameters. For detailed information see: Section 5, Configuring XNET in
Administrative Mode]

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

Router
Hub

Figure 3-1. Connecting the XNET to LAN
1. Follow steps 1 through 4 in Section 2.5 to assign an IP address to the XNET.
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.
IP Network (LAN/WAN)
xDSL/
Cable
Modem
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.
