Estimation of Total Bit Rate
The total JPEG bit rate from

clients, and the client’s requested number of
frames. The total MPEG4 bit rate from
determined by the number of distributions.
Develop a design upon taking the above into
consideration.
Bit Rate of JPEG Stream
The JPEG file size per frame varies with the
encoding settings as well as input video signals.
The following table shows typical sizes. When
VFS is selected, the quantization table during
JPEG encoding will be maintained, and the file
size will increase/decrease according to the input
signals. When AFS is selected, encoding will be
performed such that the target file size is the
average size of multiple JPEG images.

The maximum number of distributions varies with
the bit rate settings as well as the client’s
requested frame rate. Up to 20 streams can be
distributed (including multicast). The total frame
rate refers to the sum of these frame rates.
For example, when 10 fps is requested by two
clients, and in addition, multicast is transmitted
at a rate of 10 fps, the total frame rate will be:
10 + 10 + 10 = 30 fps
For example, when 5 fps is requested by two
clients, and in addition, multicast is transmitted
at a rate of 5 fps, the total frame rate will be:
5 + 5 + 5 = 15fps
If JPEG file size per piece is 120KB, total bit rate will be:

Bit Rate of MPEG4 Stream
You can select either the Variable Bit Rate (VBR)
or Constant Bit Rate (CBR) system for MPEG4
stream.
When the VBR system is selected, the bit rate
varies according to the condition of the input video
signals. The VBR system delivers a stable picture
quality, but forecast of the bit rate is difficult.
When the CBR system is selected, encoding is
performed at a fixed bit rate regardless of the
condition of the input video signals. The picture
quality varies under the CBR system, but the bit
rate can be easily forecasted.
You can specify an estimated bit rate for both
VBR and CBR. (64 kbps to 8000 kbps)

Bit Rate of Audio
Only 1 audio data stream can be received. Data volume
for 1 audio stream is 64 kbps. Audio data volume may be
calculated using the following formula.
64 kbps x no. of streams
The number of streams is the total number of streams
sent via TCP (number of clients), streams sent via
multicast, and stream received by camera
(Example) When camera sends out 2 audio streams and
receives 1 audio stream, data volume will be as follows.
64 kbps x 3 = 192 kbps

or JPEG distribution, you can select either “Frame Rate
Priority” mode or “Client number Priority” mode. “Frame
Rate Priority” mode distributes JPEG images according
to the frame rate requested by the client. The maximum
number of distributions is determined based on the
highest bit rate within the distribution streams. For “Client
number Priority” mode, if there are requests from multiple
clients, JPEG images are distributed in a lower frame rate
than that requested to cater to multiple clients. It can
accept 20 distribution requests as the maximum number
of clients.
䡵
When Frame Rate Priority Mode is Selected
JPEG images are distributed at the frame rate requested
by the client.
When a distribution request that exceeds the maximum
number of distributions is received, this request is denied.
●
When only JPEG images are distributed
For example, if Client A requests for JPEG at 1 Mbps,
while Client B requests for JPEG at 5 Mbps, additional 2
streams (total 4 streams) of distribution are possible for

If the distribution request would be accepted in the frame

priority mode, the frame rate is controlled such that the

Memo:
● If the bit rate is changed when image
distribution is in progress, the restriction on

Insufficient network bandwidth
When there is insufficient bandwidth, the number
of JPEG frames (frame rate) that the client can
acquire will decrease. Delay will also occur in the
distribution of images. In the case of MPEG4,
noise interference may occur and playback may
fail. There may be a longer delay or interruption
in the audio.
Network Delay
When the client acquires JPEG via TCP,
will send out data while checking the ACK from
the client at the same time. For networks with
considerable delay, data cannot be sent out until
ACK is received, and therefore the frame rate
will drop. In the case of MPEG4, noise
interference may occur and playback may fail.
Audio may be interrupted.
Decrease in the frame rate due to network delays
can be eliminated by receiving data via multicast.
Network Jitter
When there is considerable network jitter, delay
time may be prolonged and the image frame rate
may drop. In the case of MPEG4, noise
interference may occur and playback may fail.
Audio may be interrupted.

Packet Loss
When acquiring images from
packet loss may be recovered by TCP
transmission. When there is considerable delay
in the network, however, missing data may occur

playback may fail.

Memo:
● If the black level is set to “0”, this may be too low depending on the

● The screen appears grainy at dark locations when the AGC feature is in
use.
I Sense UpThis feature is used to raise the sensitivity level by lengthening the exposure
time.
You can specify the number of times by which the sensitivity level is to be
increased automatically when the object becomes dark. When Ax16B is
selected, the sensitivity level will automatically increases continuously until it
is 16 times of the level when AOffB is selected. When the sensitivity level
increases, the shutter speed slows down and motion becomes unnatural.
When set to AOffB, [Sense Up] is disabled.
● Upon raising the sensitivity level, the screen may appear grainy or white,
or white defects may occur. However, this is not a malfunction.
● When Sense Up is set to a value other than AOffB, flickers occur under
the light of fluorescent or mercury lamps. This is not a malfunction of the
camera, but is due to principles related to Sense Up.
● When the shutter is set to a value between 1/250 to 1/10000, set
Sense Up to AOffB.
J ALC PriorityFor setting the priority of ALC (feature for maintaining the video level
according to the brightness of the object). You can select whether to assign
priority to the motion or picture quality when the object becomes dark.
Motion: Assigns priority to motion.
Quality: Assigns priority to picture quality.
[Set values: Motion, Quality]
When the object becomes dark, priority is given to AGC
(automatic gain control), and therefore this is suitable for
shooting fast-moving objects.
When the object becomes dark, priority is given to the Sense
Up feature, and therefore this is suitable for shooting objects
requiring a high picture quality.

B FTPFor setting the FTP environment when [FTP] is specified as an action on the

Example: subdir1/subdir2
Destination directory of FTP transfer will be dependent on the FTP server if
“/” is added at the beginning.

When AManualB is selected, you can select a file name generation method

● File name containing only the character string entered in [User-defined-
name]
Example: Camera1.jpg
● File name with the year, month, day, hour, minute, and second added to
The name of the file to be transmitted via FTP is made up of the action
number, year, month, day, hour, minute, second, number and trigger flag.
Example: 01-20070711152904-001-0.jpg
The first two digits are the action number, and the following 14 digits denote
the year, month, day, hour, minute and second.
The three digits after the first hyphen is the number of the series of JPEG
