Compression type: G.711 is the international standard for encoding wired-telephone audio on
64kBit/s channel. It is a PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) scheme operating at 8 kHz sample rate. The default setting is G.711 µ-law.
Sample rate: Indicates the number of times per second the sound is sampled. The default
setting is 8 kHz.
NOTE
G.711, also known as Pulse Code Modulation (PCM), is a very commonly used waveform codec. G.711 uses a sampling rate of 8,000 samples per second, with the tolerance on that rate 50 parts per million (ppm). Non-uniform quantization (logarithmic) with 8 bits is used to represent each sample, resulting in a 64 kbit/s bit rate. There are two slightly different versions; μ-law, which is used primarily in North America, and A-law, which is in use in most other countries outside North
36
America. G.711 μ-law tends to give
more resolution to higher range signals while G.711 A-law
provides more quantization levels at lower signal levels.

NOTES
- H.264 is the new generation compression standard for digital video, also known as MPEG4 Part 10.
This function offers higher video resolution than Motion JPEG or MPEG4 at the same bit rate and bandwidth, or the same quality video at a lower bit rate.
- MJPEG (Motion Joint Photographic Experts Group) is a simple compression technique for networked video. Latency is low and image quality is guaranteed, regardless of movement or complexity of the image. Image quality is controlled by adjusting the compression level, which in turn provides control over the file size, and thereby the bit rate.

Profile: Selects the stream profile that is to be used for transmissions. The default setting is High.
High The primary profile for broadcast and disc storage applications,
particularly for HDTV (High-Definition television) or Blu-ray Disc applications.
Main Originally intended as the mainstream consumer profile for broadcast
and storage applications. Additional tools over baseline profile include: B slice type.
Baseline Primarily for low-cost applications that requires additional error
robustness such as video conferencing, video over-IP and mobile applications. Tools used by baseline profile include: I and P slice types.
Resolution: Specified as the number of pixel-columns (width) by the number of pixel-rows
(height). The Resolution can be adjusted in the range from 320x240 to 1280x960. The default setting is 1280x720.
NOTE
The maximum resolution setting might not be obtainable due to programmed compression standard and processor power.
Bit rate control: The bit rate can be set as VBR (Variable Bit Rate) or CBR (Constant Bit Rate).
VBR Automatically 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 bit rate that consumes a predictable
amount of bandwidth. As the bit rate would usually need to increase for increased image activity, but in this case can not, the frame rate and image quality are affected negatively.
Bit rate:
Indicates the quality of the video stream (rendered in kilobits per second). The higher value means the higher video quality and bandwidth required. The Compression can be adjusted in the range from 100 to 6000 kbps. The default setting is 4000 kbps.
Quality: Automatically adjusts the compression rate to guarantee the image quality at only VBR
mode. The default setting is Middle.
Frame rate: Indicates the number of fps (frame per second) available for the video stream
configuration. The Frame rate can be adjusted in the range from 1 to 30 fps. The default setting is 30 fps.
NOTES
- The maximum frame rate setting might not be obtainable due to programmed compression standard, resolution of the stream, and processor power.
52
- A higher
frame rate is advantageous when there is movement in the video stream, as it maintains
image quality throughput.
GOP structure: Describes the composition of the video stream. This GOP (Group of Picture)
setting configures the number of partial frames that occur between full frames in the video stream. For example, in a scene where a door opens and a person walks through, only the movements of the door and the person are stored by the video encoder. The stationary background that occurs in the previous partial frames is not encoded because no changes occurred in that part of the scene; the stationary background is only encoded in the full frames. Partial frames improve video compression rates by reducing the size of the video. As the GOP increases, the number of partial frames increases between full frames. This setting is only available with H.264 compression standards. The default setting is IP. Please consult with your network administrator before changing.
GOP size: The higher value saves considerably on bandwidth but may have an adverse effect on
image quality. Higher values are only recommended on networks with high reliability. The GOP size can be adjusted in the range from 1 to 60. The default setting is 30. Please consult with your network administrator before changing.

NOTE
The maximum resolution setting might not be obtainable due to programmed compression standard and processor power.
Bit rate control: The bit rate can be set as VBR (Variable Bit Rate) or CBR (Constant Bit Rate).
VBR Automatically 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.
54
CBR Allows y
ou to set a fixed target bit rate that consumes a predictable amount of bandwidth. As the bit rate would usually need to increase for increased image activity, but in this case can not, the frame rate and image quality are affected negatively.
Bit rate: Indicates the quality of the video stream (rendered in kilobits per second). The higher
value means the higher video quality and bandwidth required. The Compression can be adjusted in the range from 100 to 6000 kbps. The default setting is 2000 kbps.
Frame rate: Indicates the number of fps (frame per second) available for the video stream
configuration. The Frame rate can be adjusted in the range from 1 to 30 fps. The default setting is 30 fps.
NOTES
- The maximum frame rate setting might not be obtainable due to programmed compression standard, resolution of the stream, and processor power.

Stream4
The Stream4 features the H.264 compression standard for ROI.
Figure 30. Video & Image / Stream4
H.264 Setting: Configures the H.264 setting value for stream4.
60
Profile: Choose a profile. The default setting is High.
High The primary profile for broadcast and disc storage applications,
particularly for HDTV (High-Definition television) or Blue-ray Disc applications.
Main
Originally intended as the mainstream consumer profile for broadcast and storage applications. Additional tools over baseline profile include: B slice type.
Baseline
Primarily for low-cost applications that requires additional error robustness such as video conferencing, video over-IP and mobile applications. Tools used by baseline profile include: I and P slice types.
Resolution: Specified as the number of pixel-columns (width) by the number of pixel-rows
(height). The Resolution can be adjusted in the range from 320x240 to 720x576. The default setting is 320x240.
NOTE
The maximum resolution setting might not be obtainable due to programmed compression standard and processor power.
Bit rate control: The bit rate can be set as VBR (Variable Bit Rate) or CBR (Constant Bit Rate).
VBR Automatically 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 bit rate that consumes a predictable
amount of bandwidth. As the bit rate would usually need to increase for increased image activity, but in this case can not, the frame rate and image quality are affected negatively.
Bitrate: Indicates the quality of the video stream (rendered in kilobits per second). The higher
value means the higher video quality and bandwidth required. The Compression can be adjusted in the range from 100 to 2000 kbps. The default setting is 500 kbps.
Quality:
Automatically adjusts the compression rate to guarantee the image quality at only VBR
mode. The default setting is Middle.
Frame rate: Indicates the number of fps (frame per second) available for the video stream
configuration. The Frame rate can be adjusted in the range from 1 to 30 fps. The default setting is 30 fps.
NOTES
- The maximum frame rate setting might not be obtainable due to programmed compression
standard, resolution of the stream, and processor power.
61
- A higher
frame rate is advantageous when there is movement in the video stream, as it maintains
image quality throughput.
GOP structure: Describes the composition of the video stream. This GOP (Group of Picture)
setting configures the number of partial frames that occur between full frames in the video stream. For example, in a scene where a door opens and a person walks through, only the movements of the door and the person are stored by the video encoder. The stationary background that occurs in the previous partial frames is not encoded because no changes occurred in that part of the scene; the stationary background is only encoded in the full frames. Partial frames improve video compression rates by reducing the size of the video. As the GOP increases, the number of partial frames increases between full frames. This setting is only available with H.264 compression standards. The default setting is IP. Please consult with your network administrator before changing.
GOP size: The higher value saves considerably on bandwidth but may have an adverse effect on
image quality. Higher values are only recommended on networks with high reliability. The GOP size can be adjusted in the range from 1 to 60. The default setting is 30
Text Overlay Setting: Allows you to overlay user favorite text into image. Click the Enable
text overlay box to enable text overlay.
Content: Click in the Content box and type a description for the text you are creating (1 to 20
alphanumeric characters).
Location: Select the appropriate place to locate the Content description. Display timer: Provides the device timer setting value. The default setting is OFF.
ROI Setting: ROI (Region of Interest) features that transmit specially selected area in the
primary stream using different channel, resolution, and frame rate.
Open ROI viewer: Click the Open ROI viewer box and then appears the new popup window to
assign the ROI stream.

Figure 33. Audio / Basic
Audio Setting: Click the Enable audio checkbox to enable audio. This page describes how to
configure the basic audio settings for the camera.
Compression type: G.711 is the international standard for encoding wired-telephone audio on
64kBit/s channel. It is a PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) scheme operating at 8 kHz sample rate. The default setting is G.711 µ-law.
Sample rate: Indicates the number of times per second the sound is sampled. The default
setting is 8 kHz.
NOTES
65
- G.711, also
known as Pulse Code Modulation (PCM), is a very commonly used waveform codec. G.711 uses a sampling rate of 8,000 samples per second, with the tolerance on that rate 50 parts per million (ppm). Non-uniform quantization (logarithmic) with 8 bits is used to represent each sample, resulting in a 64 kbit/s bit rate.
- There are two slightly different versions; μ-law, which is used primarily in North America, and A­law, which is in use in most other countries outside North America. G.711 μ-law tends to give more resolution to higher range signals while G.711 A-law provides more quantization levels at lower signal levels.
Audio Input: Adjusts the audio volume especially from the Mike.
Input volume: The Input volume can be adjusted in the range from -21.00 to 21.00 dB. The
default setting is 0 dB. Click the Mute box if you do not want the audio input.

Preset
If you need to view specific places routinely, you should program presets. A preset is a programmed video scene with automatic pan, tilt, zoom, focus and AE settings. Once programmed, placing the number position and pressing go button on PTZ Control panel calls up that preset automatically. In addition, presets may be assigned to alarm actions or as the "home" position for the dome camera. As many as 240 presets, whose positions are saved in the dome’s firmware, may be programmed.
