User Guide
Eyz-On
CVR
(Camera Video Recorder) is a complete surveillance solution
containing all elements of a typical digital video system engineered into a
compact surveillance camera housing: advanced high-sensitivity I.P. Camera,
digital video recorder, and analytics.
The Eyz-On
CVR
goes beyond a “typical” system by incorporating the latest
DaVinciTM technology from Texas InstrumentsTM. Our new circuitry combines
multiple video and computer system functions in one multi-processor controller.
It is unique in that it contains a built-in network switch allowing installation “onto”
an existing network without additional hardware.
Recorded images are stored on-board a micro-SD card, or can be uploaded. A
BNC connector outputs an analog video signal for ease of initial installation
adjustments, or outputting to a Spot Monitor.
Eyz-On
CVR
is perfect for stand-alone use, or as part of an enterprise-wide
installation. Images are easily retrieved using a HTML interface or via
smartphone.

Required VLC Media Player Plug-In
The Eyz-On system uses the VLC Media Player to display live and recorded
images. When connecting to the Eyz-On system for the first time you will be
directed to download the latest VLC Media Player. This Player can be installed
on any Microsoft XP, 2000, Vista, or 7 PC and is available at no-charge. Once
the VLC Player is downloaded and installed you will need to close the browser,
and then reopen it to activate the VLC Plug-In for your Internet browser.
The latest VLC Media Player can be downloaded at:
http://www.videolan.org/index.html
Network Configuration
When the Ey z-On system powers on initially the unit will be configured for a
static IP address with the following settings:
• Address: 192.168.1.168
• Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
• Gateway: 192.168.1.254
• DNS Server: 192.168.1.1
These setting can be changed by the following two methods.
Network configuration using an Internet browser
1. Open the browser application and in the address window enter:
http://192.168.1.168, (This assumes that your network connection in your
PC is configured for the 192.168.1.x subnet).
2. Once you get the sign-on Eyz-On web page, enter the username and
password. The Default username is "admin" and the default password is
"admin."
3. If this was the initial log-in you will need to enter a new password. See
username and password section.
4. Go to the Settings->Network->TCP/IP screen and enter the desired
network settings.
5. Press "Save". If you changed the IP address of the system you will need
to close your browser window and reconnect using the new IP address.

Network configuration using the USB port
The network setting can be changed without connecting to the unit using the
Ethernet.
1. Using a USB cable, connect the micro USB connector to the USB
connector on the Eyz-On system. Connect the other end of the USB
cable to an available USB port on a Windows PC. Windows should
recognize the device as a standard “mass storage device.”
2. Open the window to see the files on the Eyz-On system.
3. Select the USBConfig application.
4. Using the USBConfig application set the desired network settings. When
done press the "Apply" and "Exit" buttons. Close the window.
5. Using Windows eject the mass storage device. (Note Failure to "eject" or
"safely remove" the Eyz-On mass storage device will result in the
changes that were made being lost.)
6. When you "eject" the Eyz-On mass storage device the new setting(s) will
take effect.
Access Levels
All users are assigned one of three Eyz-On access levels: Admin, Operator, or
User. The access level determines what a user can and cannot do on the
Eyz-On system. The various permissions are:
Admin
o Full Access. User can change and set any parameter or setting.
Operator
o The same access as Admin, with the exception that an Operator
cannot add or delete users, or change user passwords other than
their own.
Viewer
o Can only access Live View, Recorded View, and change their own
password.

In no case should you apply any voltage or current to either the
alarm "+" input or the alarm "-" input terminal.
CVR
User Guide
Alarm Input Operation
Basic Operation
The Eyz-On has a single alarm input connection. To use the alarm input feature
on the Eyz-On system the user will need to connect a N.O. (normally open)
switch or relay to the alarm input connections.
When the Eyz-On detects closure across these terminals an alarm connection
will be recorded by the Eyz-On system.
Alarm Detection
The Eyz-On system monitors the alarm input terminals for a contact closure.
The alarm input must have a contact closure for a minimum of 1 second for the
Eyz-On to recognize an alarm input. Alarm contact closures of less than 1
second may or may not be detected. (The 1 second limitation is not user
configurable.) There is no maximum time that an alarm input contact closure
can be held close, but only one alarm input event will be recorded for each
contact closure.
Alarm Operation
For proper operation the user must set-up the "Settings->Event Inputs->Alarm
Input" page. This page will determine what actions the Eyz-On takes when an
alarm input is detected.
Alarm Limitations
The Eyz-On does not monitor the alarm input terminals when either it is trying to
acquire an Ethernet IP address or while the USB cable is inserted. Therefore,
care should be taken if the Eyz-On is set-up in DHCP mode since the Eyz-On
will not monitor the alarm input terminal until either an IP address is acquired
from the DHCP or the Eyz-On has timed-out on the DHCP request; this may be
as long as two minutes.
If the Eyz-On is set-up for a static IP address this limitation does not apply.
Eyz-On
CVR
User Guide 12 21214
Eyz-On
CVR
User Guide
Reverse Logic
The default condition for the Eyz-On is to detect a contact closure on the alarm
inputs, but the Eyz-On can be configured to detect an alarm input open
condition. In this case the normal (not alarmed) state would be to use a N.C.
(normally closed) switch or relay. When the Eyz-On detects that the alarm
inputs are NOT closed for a minimum of 1 second an alarm input event will
occur.
This reverse logic option is not configurable through the Web Interface, but
requires a modification to the Eyz-On configuration file.
Trigger Events
The Eyz-On system has the following event triggers:
•
Alarm Input
•
Motion Detection
•
Network Down
•
Remote Alarm Message
Each of these events can specify a unique notification to happen when the
trigger is detected; i.e., record video, send email, etc., as determined by the
event trigger page. Trigger Events are continuously monitored as long as the
system is operational and modified based on the Schedule.
A Trigger Event is defined by the monitored event changing state. Motion
Detection is determined on a frame by frame basis, so constant motion in the
video stream will continuously trigger motion detection.
When a Trigger Event happens, it can cause the following to occur as defined by
the various HTML page settings:
Record Video
- The number/length of images saved as defined in the time
setting on specific event page. (Implies recording to the on-board micro-SD
card.)
21214 13 Eyz-On
CVR
User Guide
Eyz-On
While the Eyz-On is recording the image files can be sent to the
micro-SD card, the FTP site, or both locations. The file format
used for both the SD card and the FTP site are the same. The file
format is set on the Image Compression page.
CVR
User Guide
FTP Notification
- The image sent by FTP (for a trigger event) will always be a
JPEG image. The number of images sent per the definition in the FTP setting
page.
Email Notification
- The image attached to an email will always be a JPEG
image. The number of images sent per the definition in the Email Notification
page.
Activate Alarm Out
- The alarm output signal to be active for five seconds on
the first detection of the trigger event. If the trigger event keeps happening the
alarm output will stay active for 5 seconds after the last trigger event.
Log Event
- A message will be logged for each occurrence of the Trigger Event.
If a Trigger Event has both the FTP notification and the Email Notification
specified for a specific event then the number of images specified for both the
FTP notification and the Email Notification should be the same. This will ensure
that if there are multiple event triggers that happen quickly that both the FTP and
the email receive the correct number of images. If the number of images is not
the same then some images may be skipped for either the FTP or email
notification.
Recording
In the recording mode, images are only recorded during the specified recording
times as defined in the Schedule page. The format of these images is based on
the settings specified in the Image Compression page. The recording length is
specified by the Recording Schedule.
By definition “recording” only includes the process of recording based on the
schedule. It does not include recording based on “Motion Detection”. Motion
Detection is defined as a trigger event and as such the settings for recording
images based on Motion Detection are governed by the Motion Detection events
page.

Email Notification
Sending Messages to a Cell Phone
The Eyz-On can be easily configured to send a message and image(s) directly
to a cell phone on the triggering of an event. Messages to your cell phone are
either SMS messages (Short Message Service - or only a text messages) or
MMS messages (Multi-media Message Service - having a picture attachment).
When sending SMS message the number of images sent for an event must be
set to 0 since SMS messages do not support attachments. When sending MMS
messages then the number of images can be set to any number between 1 and
20 (note, your phone service provider may limit the number of attachments). In
both cases the message sent will include text describing the Eyz-On location
and the event action.
Some cell phone companies have a separate email address for SMS and MMS.
You will need to create the cell phone's email address and then insert this email
address in the "Send Email To" field on the "Settings->Network->Email
Notification" page. For example if you want to send a MMS message (i.e. the
count field on the "Settings->Network->Email Notification" page is greater than
0) to an AT&T phone with the number of 212-555-1212, then the email address
would be 2125551212@mms.att.net.

When activated the alarm output contacts are closed for 1 second. This is the
default setting but can be changed using a Configuration File that would be
installed on the micro-SD card. This configuration file is NOT altered by the
Web pages but can be set up and included on the micro-SD card to "customize"
the Eyz-On for specific customers.
What is the recommended minimum screen resolution?
The minimum recommended screen size should be 1024 x 768, but because of
possible settings in the browser adding tool bars and etc.; to the frame you may
still have a vertical scroll bar on some pages.
Web Page Naming Conventions
The "Settings->Update->Device Settings" page has two fields used to identify
the Eyz-On. "Camera Name" and "Description ". Camera Name is a maximum
of 128 characters and must be alphanumeric characters and the characters '-',
'_', '.' and '~'. The description field is a maximum of 80 characters and can be
any printable ASCII character.
When the Eyz-On is in DHCP mode its Name will be sent to both the DHCP and
DNS so that it can be used as a web name in a browser. Correct operation of
the DHCP and DNS will still depend on the customers DHCP and/or DNS
supporting this publish feature (more on that later)
The "Camera Name" field will be the data that is sent to the DNS and DHCP.
This name will be limited to 128 characters and must conform to valid URL
requirements.
The Title of the Web Page (the text shown in the tab of the browser) will be
"Eyz-On Camera Name - Description" (Note: if Camera Name is "Eyz-On" then
the title will be "Camera Name – Description".)
If the Web Page is bookmarked then the default name used in the bookmark will
be the same as the Title of the Web Page. This should allow you to bookmark
many Eyz-On systems and use the description field as a grouping indicator (i.e.
location).

Video Compression Limitations and Artifacts
Introduction
The Eyz-On supports several types of video compression including JPEG,
MPEG4, and H.264. While the JPEG option stores video information as
individual images the MPEG4 and H.264 algorithms store several video frames
to make a complete video clip.
JPEG Mode
When the Eyz-On is in the JPEG mode images are stored as a single frame. In
this mode each file contains one and only one frame and each frame is
independent of all the other frames that are contained in other files. Since each
file is an individual frame, the video image in the frame can be saved,
transmitted or displayed as a single image.
When the Eyz-On detects that an event has happened and the
Eyz-On is configured to record images it records the currently captured image
and a number of additional images. The number of images saved depends on
the setting for the event, but generally each image saved is an individual file and
the number of files saved is fairly consistent between events as long as the
setting for the event length is not altered.
MPEG4 & H.264 Mode
MPEG4 and H.264 algorithms contain a number of features that allow them to
compress video much better than JPEG. If a particular video sequence contains
30 JPEG images (and therefore 30 files) each compressed JPEG image
contains all the information necessary to reconstruct the image. But if the same
video sequence is recorded in MPEG4 or H.264 a very different result emerges.
The MPEG4 and H.264 file contains a series of frames labeled “I”, “B” and “P”.
The “I” frames are very similar to JPEG images in that they contain all the
information necessary to reconstruct the image. The “B” and “P” frames contain
only differences in the image from the preceding “I” frame. (Note: In this
discussion we will only refer to “B” frames.) Therefore, an MPEG4 or H.264
video clip consisting of 30 frames would be a single file containing one “I” frame
and 29 “B” frames. This file size would result in a tremendous savings over the
30 individual JPEG images, when a series of video images is involved.
Effects of I, B & P Frames
Although there is tremendous memory saving using MPEG4 or H.264 over
normal JPEG there are some unique differences when video clips are recorded.
This limitation is due to the fact that in order to reconstruct an image frame you
need to have at least one “I” frame in the sequence and the “I” frame must be
the first frame in the sequence. If the MPEG4 or H.264 algorithm only consisted
of “I” frames then the algorithm would in essence be Motion JPEG and the
resulting savings in file size would be lost. This limitation that the first field in the
MPEG4 or H.264 video clip be an “I” frame has some direct consequences in
the way that Eyz-On records video.
Eyz-On
CVR
User Guide 44 21214
Eyz-On
Note: When the Motion Detection event is enabled the Eyz-On will
look for motion on frames from the imager that are not discarded due
to a frame rate setting less than 30 fps.
CVR
User Guide
Frame Rates and I Frames
Video is received from the imager at a rate of 30 frames per second (fps). In
normal circumstances MPEG4 and H.264 would compress this 30 fps into one
“I” frame followed by 29 “B” or “P” frames. Therefore, the minimum video clip
consists of an “I” frame followed by 29 smaller frames and this video clip would
represent 1 second of actual time. When the Eyz-On is set up for a frame rate
less than 30 fps then the Eyz-On effectively discards the excess frames. Thus if
a frame rate of 15 fps is selected, then the Eyz-On discards every other frame
from the imager; if the frame rate is set for 3 fps, then the Eyz-On discards 9 out
of 10 frames. The reduction of the frame rate has a big impact on the encoded
video. Since each encoded video clip has an “I” frame followed by 29 “B”
frames, the time resolution for the video clip is changed. Thus, if the Eyz-On is
set for 3 fps a video clip consisting of an “I” frame and 29 “B” frames represents
10 seconds of actual time.
How MPEG4 and H.264 Events are Recorded
When Eyz-On is in the MPEG4 or H.264 mode the Eyz-On is continually
capturing and encoding the video image to internal memory. When the Eyz-On
detects that an event has happened and the Eyz-On is configured to record
images, the operation of the Eyz-On depends on if the system is currently
recording video or not. If the Eyz-On system is recording video for a prior event
or is currently recording due to a schedule time then it is assumed to be
currently in the record mode.
If the Eyz-On system is currently recording video (in record mode), then the
event video will be saved starting with the next “I” frame. If the Eyz-On system
is not currently recording video (not in record mode), then the event video will be
saved starting with the previous “I” frame.
Note the slight difference between the two modes. This is because the MPEG4
and H.264 video must start with an “I” frame. If the frame rate is sufficiently
high, say 30 fps or 15 fps, this slight difference is not noticeable but with lower
frame rates of 3 fps the difference can be several seconds. Caution must be
exercised when using low frame rates with MPEG4 or H.264.
Length of Recorded Events
All MPEG4 or H.264 video clips must begin with an “I” frame, therefore the total
time length of the video recording segment will be determined by the frame rate
and the recording time specified for the event. Since a video clip must contain
an “I” frame and a minimum number of “B” frames and the time required to

capture the requisite number of “B” frames is determined by the frame rate then
the length of the recording is determined by both the frame rate and the
recording length set for the event. But, in no case shall the recording time be
less than the time interval set for the event.
Summary
Recording MPEG4 or H.264 at lower frame rates of 3 fps or 7 fps may have
unwanted side effects in the system’s performance in terms of when video starts
and stops for defined events. Of particular importance is when the Eyz-On is set
in a low frame rate mode and is recording video because the current time falls
within the preset schedule recording time. In that case the beginning sequence
of some events may not be captured with the event recording file, but they will
be available on the surveillance or transaction page for that same time.
LED Indicators
There are two status LED’s on the rear panel of the system that normally show
power and alarm status when the unit is operational. These LED’s are both
bi-color and are used to indicate the status of the unit.
During the start-up phase the Power LED will be purple (blue + red) in most
cases.
Red + Blue (Purple) - System Initializing
Blue - System operational and OK
When the Eyz-On system is successful in booting-up the Power LED will be blue
and the Alarm LED will be “off”.
During the start-up phase these LED’s will be used to indicate the successful
completion or errors during various phases and will help in troubleshooting if
there are issues.

DHCP Explained Further
Unit will default to DHCP or static IP mode on initial power-up based on DIP
switch setting on the CPU card.
If DHCP is not enabled, the system will bring up the static IP address that is
assigned in the configuration file shortly after power is applied or when DHCP is
turned off.
If DHCP is enabled, the Eyz-On will make three attempts to acquire a DHCP
address from the DHCP server before falling back to a predefined IP address.
The Eyz-On waits up to a minute each attempt to acquire a DHCP address.
Once an IP address is assigned the Eyz-On will broadcast the new address to
the DNS server. In addition, you can use the Eyz-On Camera Discovery Tool,
Eyz-On Discovery.exe, to locate Eyz-On cameras on your network.
If DHCP is enabled and it fails to get an IP address assigned, the Eyz-On will fall
back to either the static IP address assigned in the configuration file or if
zeroconfig ("Select Dynamic IP Address without DHCP server") is enabled the
unit will revert the zero configuration address of 169.254.x.x. If the user’s
network has cooperating equipment then the unit will auto negotiate an IP
address with other items on the network.
Note: When using DHCP, the user must set up their DHCP to dynamically
update the DNS server when a new host name is assigned an IP address.
Information on specific setup depends on the DHCP/DNS used but generic
Microsoft information can be found at http://technet.microsoft.com/enus/library/cc787034(v=ws.10).aspx and information on Dynamic DNS can be
found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_DNS
When using DNS the user may simply type the Eyz-On name plus “.local” in the
space for the URL on the web browser to connect to the Eyz-On. There is no
need to enter the IP address as the DNS will resolve the system name field into
an IP address.
Multi-Cast (mDNS)
Unit will default to Multi-Cast enabled in either DHCP or static IP mode. On the
Settings->Network->TCP/IP page there is an option to enable/disable
"Broadcast local IP address using mDNS".
When mDNS is enabled Eyz-On will broadcast its name and IP address on the
local subnet. Web browsers (and OS's) that support mDNS will be able to use

for the URL in the browser.
Example: Assuming the Eyz-On Name is "LocationX" then the user would type

Currently iOS (Apple using the Safari browser) supports mDNS. For Windows to
support mDNS the user will need to install "Bonjour for Windows" on their PC.
