WDR (Wide Dynamic Range)
Besides, the series provides WDR technology which is aimed at coping with problems like poor quality images shot against a strong backlight. WDR uses two shutter speeds in alternative video fields, high and normal, and combines these two fields into one frame. It allows every detail to be captured accurately, even if one portion is bright while other portions are dark. As a result, combined fields yield a frame of high quality images.
7
H.264 compression
Currently, the H.264 is the most common and dynamic video compression format and a powerful compression codec which delivers superior image quality at a low bit rate.

3.5 Updating System Software
If the system software of the IP Camera needs to be upgraded, please take the following steps to safely process it.
Important: Before carrying out the following procedures, please ensure the SD card is working and the file of the system firmware is intact
1.Create a directory named UPGRADE (upper-case or lower-case letters are no difference) in the SD card if it does not exist.
2.Copy the file of UPDATE.BIN to the UPGRADE -directory.
3.If the IP Camera is running, please power it off first.
4.Insert the SD CARD into the IP Camera.
5.Remove the Ethernet cable from the RJ-45 port and then power on the IP Camera.
6.In 5 to 10 seconds, a message reading "UPDATE PROCESSING" will show up on the screen on a blue background; if not, please check out steps 1 to 6 carefully or else inform your technical support while ignoring the following steps.
7.DO NOT power off the IP Camera while this update process is running until the message "UPDATE OK RESET PLEASE" appears on the screen; it might take 15 to 30 seconds to appear.
8.If the message "UPDATE NG RESET PLEASE" appears rather than "UPDATE OK RESET PLEASE", please write down the error messages shown on the screen and inform your technical support, while ignoring the following steps.
9.Power off the IP Camera when this update process is finished, then remove the SD card from the IP Camera.
10.Reconnect the Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 port if necessary.
11.Power ON the IP Camera and it will work normally if the entire update procedure goes correctly.
12.Verify the version of the system software.
WARNING:
Steps 1 to 2 have to be done on a PC.
Make sure the file of UPDATE.BIN is a correct one in step 2, or the IP Camera will not work normally after being updated.
If the power of the IP Camera is suddenly lost in step 7, please remove the SD card first and turn on the IP Camera next to test its operation. If the IP Camera remains working normally, please go back to step 3; otherwise, please inform your technical support.
In step 9, if the SD card is not removed and the IP Camera does not get online as well, the updating process must be repeated again after rebooting the IP Camera.
Make sure that the SD card is inserted in a correct position in step 4, or the IP Camera will suffer permanent physical damage.
If the message "CSUM ERROR" appears in step 7, it implies a problem in the file of UPDATE.BIN.
Don’t interrupt the process while the unit is updating itself; proceed with an SD card not including any system software of the unit, or else the unit will crash.

4.2 Configure Your IP Camera Network Settings
Upon connecting with the network hardware, you need to activate the network function and configure the proper network settings of the IP camera.
4.2.1 Enable DHCP Function
Note: The IP Camera default setting is DHCP ON. Users can obtain an IP address automatically from the DHCP server.
The IP box camera:
This function can only work if the LAN, which the unit is connected to, has a DHCP server. If the DHCP server is working, please move the dip switch points up to 3 on the flank panel; now the IP camera will obtain an IP address automatically from the DHCP server. In this instance, please skip section 4.2.2 (Set IP address) and follow section 4.3 (TCP/IP Communication Software).
The IP indoor/ outdoor mini-dome & the IP bullet camera:
This function can only work if the LAN, which the unit is connected to, has a DHCP server. If the DHCP server is working in the LAN, please plug the USB connector into your PC’s USB socket and the other end of the connector in the camera. A window pops up asking if you want to "Run the program", "Open folder to view files", or "Take no action". Choose "Run the program" and click "OK", and the "USB configuration" window will pop up. Set the Network setting and turn on the DHCP setting to use the DHCP protocol. The IP Camera will obtain an IP address automatically from the DHCP server.
4.2.2 Set IP Address
You need to set an IP address for the unit if the LAN unit isn’t connected to a DHCP server. Otherwise, please follow the instructions given below:
Note: The default static IP is 192.168.1.10.
Set the IP, MASK and GATEWAY. The following is a sample setting.
IP: |
192.168.1.X |
MASK: |
255.255.255.0 |
GATEWAY: |
0.0.0.0 |
NOTE: When only one unit of the IP camera is connected to a computer or LAN, you can freely assign an IP address for the IP camera. For example, there is a range of IP camera IP addresses from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.255. You can pick one for use from the range of the IP. It’s not necessary to set MASK and GATEWAY; leave the settings as default.
When an IP camera is connected to a WAN, you must acquire a unique, permanent IP address and correctly configure the MASK and GATEWAY settings according to your network architecture. If you have any questions regarding those settings, please consult a qualified MIS professional or your ISP.
NOTE: When connecting to a network, each connected IP camera must be assigned a unique IP, which must be in the same class type as your network address. IP addresses are written as four sets of numbers separated by periods; for example, 192.168.1.1 Therefore, if the connected network is identified as Class C, for example, the first three sets of numbers of the IP camera IP address must be the same as the network address. If the connected network is identified as Class B, the first two sets of numbers of the IP camera IP address must be the same as the network address. If you have any questions regarding these settings, please consult a qualified MIS professional or your ISP.
