Cautionary Notes

Maintenance and operating environment

䢇 This camera is intended for use indoors. It

cannot be used outdoors.

䢇 Do not store in the following environments.

It might result in malfunctions or failure.

● Hot or cold locations beyond the

surrounding temperature range of -10I to 50I.

● Locations beyond the allowable operating

humidity range of 35 %RH to 85 %RH. (condensation is not allowed)

● Near equipment that produces strong

magnetic fields, such as transformers or motors.

● Near equipment that emits radio waves,

such as transceivers and mobile phones.

● Locations with excessive dust and sand.

● Locations that are subject to excessive

vibration.

● Locations prone to moisture such as

window side.

● Locations subject to steam or oil, such as

kitchens.

● Locations that emit radiation, X-rays or

corrosive gases.

䢇 Use of this product and cables connected to

this product at locations where strong electric waves and magnetic waves are generated (e.g., near radio, TV, transformer, monitor, etc.) may cause noise interferences in the images or changes in the color.

䢇 Do not install at locations where cold air is

circulated, such as near the air vent of an air conditioner. The drastic change in temperature may fog up the dome cover.

䢇 Do not install at locations that may trap heat.

This product also discharges heat from the surface of the main unit. As such, do not install it at locations that may trap heat, such as wall corners.

Handling of Equipment

䢇 Do not block vents around the equipment.

Inadequate heat ventilation may result in malfunction of this product. Be sure not to block vents around the product.

Others

䢇 This product has a built-in AGC circuit. When

AGC is AOnB, the product sensitivity increases automatically at dark places and the image on the screen may appear grainy. This is not a malfunction.

䢇 When White Balance is set to AAutoB, the

principle of automatic tracking white balance circuit may cause the color of the image to be different from the actual color of the object, depending on the condition of the object. However, this is not a malfunction. If a high-intensity object (such as a lamp) is

䢇

shot, vertical lines may appear on the image (smear phenomenon) or blurring may occur around the high-intensity object (blooming phenomenon). This is a CCD characteristic and is not a malfunction.

䢇 The electronic shutter of this product is set to

1/60 by default. To prevent flickering under fluorescent lighting (except inverter illumination) in a location with commercial power frequency of 50 Hz, switch the shutter speed to 1/100. (The sensitivity decreases a little when the shutter speed is 1/100.)

䢇 When Easy Day and Night is set to AOnB, the

image becomes black and white in dark locations. As the sensitivity is increased at this time, the screen may appear grainy and white spots may also increase. In addition, when color images are changed to black and white, bright areas of the screen are emphasized and they may be difficult to see. However, this is not a malfunction.

䢇 The image may be distorted or be mixed with

noises when the power voltage is cut off instantaneously or is lowered by a lightning strike or by switching on an air conditioner.

䢇 The rotation angle of this product is set to

wide angle to support wide range equipment. When the lens zoom is wide and the tilt angle is approximately ±80 ⬚, the rotation angle may cause the dome cover to be reflected in the image. In this case, adjust the field angle if required. (A Pg. 29)

䢇 When multicast is in use, use the IGMPv2-

compliant network switch.

䢇 Electricity can be supplied to this product

either by using the PoE or connecting to the DC12 V power supply. Make sure to select only one mode of electrical supply. Connecting the power cable and the LAN cable for the PoE at the same time may result in failure or malfunction of the camera. (A Pg. 24, 25)

Copyrights of video

䢇 With the exception of the user being the

copyright holder or when permission has been granted concerning duplication, etc. by the copyright holder, permission is required in principle for the duplication, modification, transmission, etc. of copyrighted video/audio. Unauthorized duplication, modification, transmission, etc. of copyrighted material may constitute a copyright infringement and the user may be liable to compensate for any damages. When using copyrighted video/ audio, be sure to check thoroughly the license agreement, etc. of the copyrighted material. When there are rights or rights holders of the duplicating subject, permission may be required for shooting or using (processing) it. Be sure to check thoroughly the licensing conditions.

Maintenance

䢇 Be sure to turn off the power before

performing maintenance.

䢇 Wipe using a soft cloth.

Wiping with thinner or benzene may dissolve or tarnish its surface. For dirt that cannot be easily removed, wipe using a neutral detergent diluted with water, followed by wiping with a dry cloth.

Saving Energy

䢇 When not in use for a long period, turn off the

power of the system to prevent risk and to reduce power consumption.

Setting

Network Requirements

● Ensure that there is sufficient network bandwidth for the data volume to be sent out by VN-C215V4U.

● Data volume to be sent by VN-C215V4U varies with the settings and number of distributions.

● The maximum bit rate from VN-C215V4U is about 9 Mbps.

Estimation of total bit rate

The JPEG file size per frame varies with the encoding settings as well as input video signals. The following table may be used as a reference. 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 average size of multiple JPEG images is the target file size.

Picture Quality Control Method

VFS (Variable File Size)

AFS (Average File Size)

1 (High) 80 KB 27 KB

2 60 KB 20 KB

3 40 KB 13 KB

4 (Medium)

5 25 KB 8 KB

6 20 KB 7 KB

7 (Low) 15 KB 5 KB

VN-C215V4U accepts requests from up to a maximum of 5 clients. In addition, it also allows transmission of 1 multicast stream. The total frame rate refers to the sum of these frame rates. For example, when 10 fps is requested by 2 clients, and in addition multicast is transmitted at a rate of 10 fps, the total frame rate will be:

10 + 10 + 10 = 30 fps

If the JPEG file size per frame is 30 KB, then the total bit rate will be:

30 KB x 30 fps = 900 KB/s = Approx. 7.2 Mbps

VGA File Size

30 KB 10 KB

Selection may be made from the range between 10 and 100 KB

QVGA File Size

Selection may be made from the range between 3 and 33 KB

Insufficient network bandwidth

When there is insufficient bandwidth, the number of JPEG frames (frame rate) that the client can acquire will decrease.

Network Delay

When the client acquires JPEG via TCP, VNC215V4U 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. Drop of frame rate due to network delay can be eliminated by sending data via multicast.

Network Jitter

When there is considerable network jitter, delay time may be prolonged and the image frame rate may drop.

Packet Loss

When acquiring images from VN-C215V4U via TCP, packet loss may be recovered by resending by TCP. When there is considerable delay during resending, however, missing data may occur and the image frame rate may drop. When packet loss occurs during multicast sending from VN-C215V4U, the image frame rate may drop.

List of protocols and port numbers used by VN-C215V4U

A Frame Size Select either VGA (640 x 480) or QVGA (320 x 240) as the frame size. B Quality/Size For specifying the rate control mode and target file size.

When AVFS1B to AVFS7B is selected, the quantization table during JPEG encoding will be maintained and the file size will increase/decrease according to the input signals. Preset values will be displayed for the target file size. When recording JPEG data to a recorder with limited capacity, pay attention when making a selection for this item as the maximum recording time varies accordingly when the file size increases/decreases. When AAFSB is selected, encoding will be performed such that the average size of multiple JPEG images is the target file size. (When AAFSB is selected, input of target file size will be enabled.)

C Frame Rate For specifying the number of frames to encode per second. VN-C215V4U is

limited in its processing capacity and the specified frame rate may not be realized depending on the settings of A[Frame Size] and B[Quality/Size]. In particular, when the specified target file size is large, the upper limit of the frame rate drops. An example of settings for which a total frame rate of 30 fps can be realized is as follows. Frame Size : VGA Picture Quality : VFS4

Frame Rate : 30 fps

(The maximum bit rate from VN-C215V4U is about 9 Mbps.)

D Fine Each video frame is made up of 2 fields.

When Fine is set to AOnB, the 2 fields can be used as is. When Fine is set to AOffB, the frame is formed using only one of the fields, hence preventing the image from blurring even when the object is moving. This feature is enabled when AVGAB is selected for the A [Frame Size] item.

E Reverse Flag Flags specified here will be written to the JPEG comment segment.

Switching this item does not flip the image data upside down. Refer to the [API Guide] on the file formats of JPEG.

A Mail For setting the mail environment when [Mail] is specified as an action of the

Alarm page. [SMTP] and [POP] can be used. Configure only the [SMTP] settings in usual circumstances. Configure the [POP] settings as well if [POP before SMTP] is enabled. In addition, if FQDN is set for [SMTP Server], etc., configure also the DNS server settings on the Basic page. (A Pg. 54)

Memo：

What is FQDN (Fully Qualified Domain Name)?

This is a fully qualified domain name that indicates a notation method of describing the entire host or domain name on the TCP/IP network without abbreviating. For example, if the host name is AwwwB and the domain name is Avictor.co.jpB, then this will be denoted as Awww.victor.co.jpB in FQDN.

B FTP For setting the FTP environment when [FTP] is specified as an action of the

Alarm page. This is common with the FTP environment when using [Periodic FTP] within this page. When [Directory] is left blank, FTP transfer will be performed to the home directory of the FTP server. To enable FTP transfer to a directory below the home directory, set the directory name in [Directory]. Delimit the directory using A/B.

Example: subdir1/subdir2

Destination directory of FTP transfer will be dependent on the FTP server if A/B is added at the beginning. Setting [Periodic FTP] to AOnB enables transfer of the latest images to the FTP server at regular intervals. Specify the interval in units of seconds in [Periodic FTP Interval]. Select a type from the three types of Periodic FTP file names. When AAutoB is selected, file names are generated from the year, month, day, hour, minute, second, and number.

Example: 20051114161032-001-2.jpg When Awith timestampB is selected, file names are generated from the user-

defined-name, year, month, day, hour, minute, second, and number. Example: Camera1_20051114161032001.jpg

When AFixedB is selected, user-defined character string can be used as a file name.

Note：

● Selecting AFixedB will overwrite JPEG files created in the FTP server for every FTP transfer. File transfer takes time in a narrow-band network. In this case, complete files may not be created if files are overwritten by the next FTP transfer before they are completed.

BFTP (continued) [Pre Post Recording Frame Rate] is constrained by the frame rate as set on

the Encoding page. (A Pg. 44) The actual frame rate used for transmission will be the upper limit on the Encoding page even if a value that is larger than the frame rate in the Encoding page is specified. The upper limits of [Pre Post Recording Before Trigger] and [Pre Post Recording After Trigger] are determined by settings on the Encoding page. In addition, [Frame Rate] is in a trade-off relationship with [Pre Post Recording Before Trigger] and [Pre Post Recording After Trigger]. In the case of a combination such that the input value cannot be realized, adjustments will be automatically made on the item that is not specified. 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: 01-20050711152904-001-0.jpg The first 2 digits are the action number, and the following 14 digits denote

the year, month, day, hour, minute and second. The 3 digits after the second hyphen is the number of the series of JPEG files to be sent via that FTP. The first file is numbered A000B. The last digit denotes the trigger flag. This is displayed as A1B only for the JPEG file during a trigger input, and as A0B if otherwise.

inversion processes that are applied may increase the load on the computer. If the computer’s capacity is inadequate, the frame rate will deteriorate during transmission via TCP and noise will occur due to losses during packet reception via multicast. To use this feature with inversion set to AOnB, make sure that you use a computer with adequate performance, or reduce the processing load by adjusting the Encoding settings (File Size, Frame Rate, Frame Size).

E Frame Rate For selecting the acquisition frame rate of the viewer.

In the case of a 1-to-1 connection between VN-C215V4U and the viewer, it is recommended that the frame rate of the viewer and VN-C215V4U be set to the same value. To play back multiple viewers at different frame rates, set the frame rate accordingly at the individual viewer. The frame rate set at the VN-C215V4U unit will be the upper limit to the acquisition frame rate of the viewer. For example, when VN-C215V4U is set to A15 fpsB, transmission will only be possible at 15 fps even when the client requests for 30 fps. Alternatively, when VN-C215V4U is set to A15 fpsB and 10 fps is requested by the client, data will be sent at 7.5 fps to enable transmission at even intervals. When acquisition is performed via HTTP, the frame rate from VNC215V4U is decided by the setting of built-in viewer. When acquisition is performed via multicast, all the frames transmitted from VN-C215V4U will be played back regardless of the frame rate settings in the built-in viewer.

Note：

● This is different from the frame rate setting at the VN-C215V4U unit.

Set to a rate such that the CPU load of the computer does not exceed 80 %. When the CPU is overloaded, the computer may not function properly.

F Time Display Format Select the format for displaying time.

YYYY, MM, DD denote year, month and day respectively while HH, MM, SS denote hour, minute and second respectively.

G Stream For selecting the protocol when the viewer acquires data from VN-

C215V4U. When AHTTPB is selected, recovery will be performed via resending when packet loss occurs. VN-C215V4U may be monitored using multiple viewers when AMulticastB is selected. Additionally, start multicast sending on the Streaming page of the VNC215V4U unit when playing back via multicast.

Note：

● When the built-in viewer is launched with AMulticastB specified, a

Windows firewall warning may be displayed. In this case, select AUnblockB and proceed.

● If ABlockB is selected, the Windows firewall will block the multicast

streams and playback of multicast at the viewer will fail.

H Http Port For specifying the TCP port number when the viewer sends a request to

the VN-C215V4U unit. Use the default value (80) in normal circumstances. When the HTTP port number of the VN-C215V4U unit has been changed, set to the same number. Set the port number according to the firewall settings for a system where a firewall has been set up between the viewer and the VN-C215V4U unit.

I Multicast Address/

Port

For specifying the multicast address and port number. This is enabled only when AMulticastB is selected for theG [Stream] item. Specify the same value as the parameter that is set on the Streaming page of VN-C215V4U. (A Pg. 56)
