Camera Adjustment
• Video auto IRIS installation & adjustment
The camera supports video-type auto iris lenses which adjust to changing light levels. Perform the following steps to install and adjust a video-type auto iris lens.
If necessary, solder the lens control wires to the connector supplied with the camera.
1. Attach the video-type auto iris lens to the lens mount on the front of the camera. Pin Name Wire Color
1 Voltage + Red 2 Open ­3 Video White 4 Ground Black
2. IMPORTANT: The minimum Plug the connector from the lens into the auto iris jack
on the back of the camera. The connector is polarized and can only be inserted into the jack one way.
3. Apply power to the camera.
9
4. The OSD AE menu in the lens select should be in the “VIDEO”.
Page 10
5. Adjust the focus ring on the lens for an optimum picture. If a picture is not visible,
set the lens for proper exposure by adjusting the ALC (Automatic Level Control) and the level on the lens. The ALC setting can range between AVG (average) or PK (peak). A midrange setting is appropriate for most applications.
For ALC adjustments: AVG To slow the reaction of the lens to changing light, set
the range to the AVG setting to average the video level from the camera. Use when there are bright spots in the picture such as lights or glare from the sun. PK To increase the speed of the lens reaction to the changing light, set the lens adjustment to PK so the lens will adjust to the brightest or peak object in the video. Use this setting if you want to see the brightest object and not the background objects.
For Level adjustments: Adjust the level control for the best picture during the day.
A night adjustment may not provide the proper setting for controlling the light during the day.
6. Set the back focus of the camera before the final adjustment of the video level.
7. If the auto iris has a gain adjustment and the picture oscillates between open and
closed under bright lights, slowly turn the gain adjustment counter clockwise until the oscillating stops. Increase the light getting to the camera by adjusting the level control and re-adjusting the gain control.
• DC auto IRIS lens installation & adjustment
1. Solder the lens control wires to the connector supplied with the camera. Pin Name Wire Color
1 Damp Coil - Blue 2 Damp Coil + Red 3 Drive Coil + White 4 Drive Coil - Green
10
2. Attach the DC-type auto iris lens to the lens mount on the front of the camera.
Page 11
3. Plug the connector into the auto iris jack on the side of the camera. The connector is
polarized and can only inserted into the jack one way.
4. Apply power to the camera.
5. The OSD AE menu in the lens select should be in the "DC".
6. Adjust the auto iris lens for an optimum picture using the LEVEL control on the "DC"
of the OSD AE MENU.
• Manual IRIS lens adjustment
When using a manual iris lens, turn the iris ring on the lens to the OPEN position and adjust the manual iris for the appropriate range. Adjust during the brightest conditions, opening the lens to the minimum f-stop yielding a good picture under the brightest scene conditions. Do not saturate the picture. The manual iris is used in indoor applications where lighting from windows can considerably affect the light level of the room.
Back Focus adjustment
For best results, perform back focus adjustments at night or while using a #6 or #8 welder's glass in front of the lens. The focus of the camera will change slightly if the camera iris was adjusted on a light scene, then changes to a dark scene. However, the camera will remain in focus if the iris was focused on a dark scene and the scene lightens.
1. The lens should be mounted on the camera before applying power.
2. If a picture is visible, focus on the picture. If the picture is not visible, open the iris
on the lens. Open the lens as wide as possible by placing the welder's glass in front of the lens and forcing the lens to automatically open.
3. When the iris is open to the widest point, re-adjust the focus for clear picture. If a
clear picture is not possible, set the focus ring to midrange.
11
4. Loosen the back focus lock screw.
Page 12
12
5. Adjust the back focus ring for a clear picture.
6. Tighten the back focus lock screw.
7. Fine tune the focus with the focus ring on the lens.
8. Remove the welder's glass from in front of the lens.
9. Adjust the iris of the lens for the best picture quality.
• Zoom lens back focus adjustment
The objective of back focusing a zoom lens is similar to that of a fixed focal length camera except the back focus is also adjusted to maintain the focus when "zooming" the lens in and out on a scene.
1. Choose an object at the farthest range set for viewing with a zoom lens.
2. Make sure the iris of the lens is wide open. Do this by adjusting the camera at night
or use a welders glass in front of the lens.
3. Adjust the focus to the stop on the far range.
4. Adjust the zoom on the lens to obtain the widest picture.
5. Loosen the back focus lock screw.
6. Adjust the back focus ring for the clearest picture.
7. Tighten the back focus lock screw.
8. Adjust the zoom on the lens to the far telephoto position.
9. Adjust the back focus ring for the clearest picture.
10. Adjust the zoom on the lens back to the widest picture.
11. Loosen the back focus screw.
12. Re-adjust the back focus for the clearest picture.
13. Tighten the back focus lock screw.
14. Repeat the previous steps as necessary to maintain a clear picture throughout the
entire zoom range.

camera support both IP version 4 and IP version 6. Both versions may be enabled simultaneously, and at least one version must always be enabled. When using IPv4, the IP address for the video encoder can be set automatically via DHCP, or a static IP address can be set manually. If IPv6 is enabled, the video encoders receive an IP address according to the configuration in the network router. There is also the option of using the Internet Dynamic DNS Service. For more information on setting the Network, please see Setup> System>Security>Network.

• Obtain IP address via DHCP - Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a protocol that lets network administrators centrally manage and automate the assignment of IP addresses on a network. DHCP is enabled by default. Although a DHCP server is mostly used to set an IP address dynamically, it is also possible to use it to set a static, known IP address for a particular MAC address.
• Use the following IP address - To use a static IP address for the Network Camera, check the radio button and then make the following settings:
-. IP address - Specify a unique IP address for your Network Camera.
-. Subnet mask - Specify the mask for the subnet the Network Camera is located on.
-. Default router - Specify the IP address of the default router (gateway) used for connecting devices attached to different networks and network segments.
Notes:
1. DHCP should only be enabled if using dynamic IP address notification, or if your DHCP server can update a DNS server, which then allows you to access the Network Camera by name (host name). If DHCP is enabled and you cannot access the unit, you may have to reset it to the factory default settings and then perform the installation again.
2. The ARP/Ping service is automatically disabled two minutes after the unit is started, or
as soon as an IP address is set.
3. Pinging the unit is still possible when this service is disabled.
3.6.1.3 Video & Image

• Video Setting
-. Codec The codec settings are separated into MPEG4 and H.264. H.264 is a
lso known as MPEG-4 Part 10. This is the new generation compression standard for digital video. This function offers higher video resolution than Motion JPEG or MPEG-4 at the same bit rate and bandwidth, or the same quality video at a lower bit rate.
-. Profile There are 4 pre-programmed stream profiles available for quick set-up.
Choose the form of video encoding you wish to use from the drop-down list:
* H.264 MP(Main Profile):
Primarily for low-cost applications that requires additional error robustness, this profile is used rarely in videoconferencing and mobile applications, it does add additional error resilience tools to the Constrained Baseline Profile. The importance of this profile is fading after the Constrained Baseline Profile has been defined.
* H.264 BP(Base Profile):
Originally intended as the mainstream consumer profile for broadcast and storage applications, the importance of this profile faded when the High profile was developed for those applications.
* MPEG4 SP(Simple Profile):
Mostly aimed for use in situations where low bit rate and low resolution are mandated by other conditions of the applications, like network bandwidth, device size etc.
* MPEG4 ASP(Advanced Simple Profile):
Its notable technical features relative to the Simple Profile, which is roughly similar to H.263, including "MPEG"-style quantization, interlaced video, B pictures (also known as B Frames), Quarter Pixel motion compensation (Qpel), Global motion compensation (GMC).
-. Resolution It enables users to determine a basic screen size when having an access through the Web Browser or PC program. The screen size control comes in seven modes like 4CIF(704x480), 2CIF(704x240), CIF (352x240), QCIF(176x120), VGA(640x480), QVGA(320x240), and QQVGA(160x120). Users can reset the selected screen size anytime while monitoring the screen on a real-time basis.
-. Bitrate control Limiting the maximum bit rate helps control the bandwidth used by the H.264 or MPEG-4 video stream. Leaving the Maximum bit rate as unlimited maintains consistently good image quality but increases bandwidth usage when there is more activity in the image. Limiting the bit rate to a defined value prevents excessive bandwidth usage, but images are lost when the limit is exceeded. Note that the maximum bit rate can be used for both variable and constant bit rates.
Page 29
29
The bit rate can be set as Variable Bit Rate (VBR) or Constant Bit Rate (CBR). VBR adjusts the bit rate according to the image complexity, using up bandwidth for increased activity in the image, and less for lower activity in the monitored area.
CBR allows you to set a fixed target bitrate that consumes a predictable amount of bandwidth. As the bit rate would usually need to increase for increased image activity, but in this case cannot, the frame rate and image quality are affected negatively. To partly compensate for this, it is possible to prioritize either the frame rate or the image quality whenever the bit rate needs to be increased. Not setting a priority means the frame rate and image quality are equally affected.
-. Compression When it is necessary to adjust a smooth transmission status according to network situations, users can increase the compressibility to carry out the network transmission stably. On the other hand, when it is necessary to maintain a detailed monitoring screen by enhancing the image quality, users can do so by decreasing the compressibility. In ease case, please adjust this function according to the network status and monitoring purposes. The default is 2000(Kbps).
-. Frame rate Upon the real-time play, users should select a frame refresh rate per second. If the rate is high, the image will become smooth. On the other hand, if the rate is low, the image will not be natural but it can reduce a network load.
-. GOP size Select the GOP(Group of Picture) size. If users want to have a high quality of fast image one by one, please decrease the value. For the purpose of general monitoring, please do not change a basic value. Such act may cause a problem to the system performance. For the details of GOP setting, please contact the service center.
• Image Setting
Sometimes the image size is large due to low light or complex scenery. Adjusting the frame rate and quality helps to control the bandwidth and storage used by the Motion JPEG video stream in these situations. Limiting the frame rate and quality optimizes bandwidth and storage usage, but may give poor image quality. To prevent increased bandwidth and storage usage, the Resolution, Frame rate, and Frame Quality should be set to an optimal value.
-. JPEG resolution Same as the video settings.
-. JPEG frame rate Same as the video settings.
Page 30
-. JPEG quality Select the picture quality. If users want to have a high quality of fast image one by one, please decrease the value. For the purpose of general monitoring, please do not change a basic value. Such act may cause a problem to the system performance.
When satisfied with the settings, click Save, or click Reset to revert to previously saved
settings.

QoS
Quality of Service (QoS) provides the means to guarantee a certain level of a specified resource to selected traffic on a network. Quality can be defined as a maintained level of bandwidth, low latency, and no packet losses.
The main benefits of a QoS-aware network are:
-. The ability to prioritize traffic and thus allow critical flows to be served before flows with
lesser priority.
-. Greater reliability in the network, thanks to the control of the amount of bandwidth an
application may use, and thus control over bandwidth races between applications.
• DSCP Settings For each type of network traffic supported by your network video product, enter a DSCP (Differentiated Services Code Point) value. This value is used to mark the traffic’s IP header. When the marked traffic reaches a network router or switch, the DSCP value in the IP header tells the router or switch which type of treatment to apply to this type of traffic, for example, how much bandwidth to reserve for it. Note that DSCP values can be entered in decimal or hex form, but saved values are always shown in decimal.
The following types of traffic are marked:
-. Live Stream DSCP:
-. Event/Alarm DSCP:
-. Management DSCP:
62
Page 63
• Auto Traffic Control Set a limitation on user network resources by designating the maximum bandwidth.
-. Maximum bandwidth - In case of sharing other network programs or equipment, it is
possible to set a limitation on the maximum bandwidth in the unit of Mbit/s or kbit/s.
-. Auto frame rate - Selected if not influenced by a network-related program or equipment without a limitation on the network bandwidth.
NAT Traversal
A broadband router allows devices on a private network (LAN) to share a single connection to the Internet. This is done by forwarding network traffic from the private network to the “outside”, that is, the Internet. Security on the private network (LAN) is increased since most broadband routers are pre-configured to stop attempts to access the private network (LAN) from the public network/Internet.
Use NAT traversal when your network
cameras are located on an intranet (LAN) and you wish to make it available from the other (WAN) side of a NAT router. With NAT traversal properly configured, all HTTP traffic to an external HTTP port in the NAT router is forwarded to the network
camera.
Notes:
-. For NAT traversal to work, this must be supported by the broadband router.
-. The broadband router has many different names: “NAT router”, “Network router“, Internet Gateway”, “Broadband sharing device” or
“Home firewall” but the essential purpose of the device is the same.

• NAT traversal Settings
-. Enable - when enabled, the network transmitters attempt to configure port mapping in a NAT router on your network, using UPnP™. Note that UPnP™ must be enabled in the
Network Camera (see System>Network>UPnP).
* automatic setting: The Network Camera automatically search for NAT routers on your network. * manual setting: Select this option to manually select a NAT router and enter the external port number for the router in the field provided.
Notes:
-. If you attempt to manually enter a port that is already in use, an alert message will be
displayed.
-. When the port is selected automatically it is displayed in this field. To change this enter
a new port number and click Save.
