1. Introduction
1.4 System Connections
The IP Camera can be connected in one of two ways:
1) 1 to 1 connection where one camera is connected to one PC client or a decoder
system, or 2) 1 to many connections where one system can be connected to several
PCs and decoder systems (the video server can work as a video decoder which takes
the data from a video server or IP camera, decodes and outputs analog video).
Topology
Generally, the IP Camera and PC or a Decoder is connected in a 1-to-1 mode or a 1-to
many configuration:
1:1 Connection
One camera is installed at a site where video images are transmitted. A PC or a
decoder is installed at a central location to receive and view the video images on an
analog monitor. Audio and serial data are transferred in either direction.
1:N Connection
In this configuration, a site can be monitored from many remote central locations.
Maximum connections would be limited by network bandwidth connection. Functionally,
the VMS (Video Management System) software provided can replace the decoder.
User Manual VS-7300 – V1.0 Page 6 of 47 5/2016

1. Introduction
Multicast Mode
If the network supports Multicasting, a large number of decoders can be used to
receive video effectively using a single video and audio streaming. However, Multicast
Mode is possible only when the network environment supports Multicast.
Relaying
In this arrangement, video and audio can be re-transmitted from one center to another
center. The arrangement is useful when the network bandwidth at the site is limited
while there is more than one center wanting to monitor the site.
VMS (Video Management System)
VMS (Video Management System) is a Windows based remote monitoring program to
access multiple encoders for real-time monitoring or control of the encoders and
connected cameras. Please refer to the VMS User Manual for more information on
VMS.

The audio signal required is line level, so audio equipment with an amp, mixer or
other amplifier should be used.
2.4 Connecting Serial Port (RS-485 Communication)
This IP Box Camera can be connected to external equipment such as a PT receiver,
etc. The camera can send PT commands via the Serial Ports.
When a Decoder System is used to connect the IP Box Camera to the Serial Port,
the Decoder System works in Pass-Through Mode (data from one port is delivered
to the other port.
2.5 Connecting Sensor and Alarm
Connect Sensor and Alarm Devices to corresponding terminals accordingly.
2.6 Check If It Works
Once the power is supplied to the camera, it will start booting. The system will boot
up to operation mode after approximately 40-60 seconds. The green LED on the
Ethernet Port will flash indicating the system is ready.
Software provided on the disc called VS Manager allows you to check the IP
address and other network details of the camera. Please refer to the VS Manager
manual for instructions on how to find the IP address of the camera and to make
necessary changes.

A time zone is a region of the earth that has uniform standard time, usually referred to
as the local time. By convention, time zones compute their local time as an offset
from UTC (Coordinated Universal Time). In casual use, GMT (Greenwich Mean Time)
can be considered equivalent to UTC. Local time is UTC plus the current time zone
offset for the considered location
The Network Time Protocol (NTP) is a protocol for synchronizing the clocks of
computer systems over packet-switched, variable-latency data networks. It is designed
particularly to resist the effects of variable latency by using a jitter buffer.

Encode
Enable Preview
1. Select ON to enable the video display preview on the monitor.
2. Select the Output Format based on the video preview. Note: when Enable
Preview is ON, dual streaming is not available. When the video is transmitted
directly to the monitor through the BNC cable, the video is not sent through the
network. Therefore, video has less delay and no network limitations.
Resolution
Select video encoding resolution.
Framerate
Determine the maximum number of frames per second for the video stream.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 frame rate can be selected. The actual frame
rate of video can be less than the maximum frame rate set due to the network
bandwidth limitation.
Preference
Select Encoding Mode to control the Video Quality or Bitrate: Quality (VBR) or Bit
Rate (CBR). If ‘Bitrate’ is selected, the video encoding will be effected by the
‘Bitrate’ value entered. Therefore, the “Bitrate” mode corresponds to CBR (Constant
Bit Rate) encoding. If ‘Quality’ is selected, the video encoding will be effected by the
quality of image selected. Therefore, the “Quality” mode corresponds to VBR
(Variable Bit Rate) encoding.
Quality
Select Quality Level: 7 Levels of Quality are available. Quality Mode (VBR
Encoding) encodes every frame in a constant quality. Therefore, resulting bitrate
may vary a lot depending on the complexity or activity changes in the input video.
Quality Mode is preferred when constant video quality is required and the network
bandwidth is enough for delivering the stream of highly varying bitrate.
Bit Rate
Bitrate value ranges between 32 and 16Mbps. Bitrate Mode (CBR Encoding)
allows you to set a fixed target bitrate that consumes a predictable amount of
bandwidth. In order to stay within the bitrate limit, video quality is controlled
dynamically according to the complexity or activity changes in the input video.
I-Frame Interval
Determine I-Frame Interval between 1 and 255.
H.264 Profile
Select the H.264 Profile: High Profile or Baseline Profile.
A profile defines the various capabilities which target specific applications.
User Manual VS-7300 – V1.0 Page 17 of 47 5/2016

4. Remote Configuration
1. High Profile
High Profile is the primary profile for broadcast and disc storage applications;
particularly for high-definition television application (for example: Blu-Ray Disc
storage format and DVB HDTV broadcast service).
2. Baseline Profile
Baseline Profile is for low-cost applications that require additional data loss
robustness used in some videoconferencing and mobile application. This
profile includes all the features that are supported in the constrained baseline
profile, plus three additional features that can be used for loss robustness.
Dual Encode

This value determines the sensitivity of the motion detection within a block. This is
selectable from 0-10; the smaller the number, the more sensitive the motion
detection becomes.
Information Display
System ID and/or Time can be displayed within the video in Internet Explorer. Each
item can be turned on/off separately. The position for each item can be configured
individually as well. This information is displayed after the video is decompressed.
BurnIn OSD
Insert System ID and Date/Time in the compressed video. Each item can be turned
on/off separately in the video. Position and Font Size can be configured as well.
System ID for BurnIn OSD exists independently from normal System ID.
Note: BurnIn OSD Display Size varies according to the encoding resolution setting.

Domain Name System (DNS) is a database system that translates a computer's fully qualified
domain name into an IP address. Networked computers use IP addresses to locate and connect to
each other, but IP addresses can be difficult for people to remember. For example, on the web, it's
much easier to remember the domain name www.amazon.com than it is to remember its
corresponding IP address (207.171.166.48). Each organization that maintains a computer network
will have at least one server handling DNS queries. That server, called a name server, will hold a
list of all the IP addresses within its network, plus a cache of IP addresses for recently accessed
computers outside the network.

One-Way Streaming
This IP Camera provides two kinds of one-way (unidirectional) streaming based
on UTP to clients: RTSP and MPEG-TS. Both are types of broadcasting where traffic
from clients to an encoder is not generated at all.
RTP (Real-Time Transport Protocol) is an Internet Protocol used for transmitting
single real-time multimedia data such as audio and video to a select group of
connected clients. Normally RTSP uses RTP to format packets of multimedia
content. The RTP menu is used when the RTP only is streaming without an RTSP
connection. RTP stream will be transmitted to the destination set. The SDP (Session
Description Protocol) file can be found in the encoder and a client can retrieve it
using the http connection.
Destination IP: Set the IP Address of the destination system receiving the RTP
Stream. If the system is a decoder, RTSP authentication information can be found
in the middle of the RTSP URL: rtsp://admin:1234@192.168.10.100:554/video1
Destination Port: Set the port of the destination system receiving the
TRP stream.
User Name: Enter the user name that will be used as a session name in
the SDP file.
File Name: Enter the file name that will be used as the name of the SDP
file. When this is entered, it can be accessed through

4. Remote Configuration
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is used by Network Management
Systems to communicate with network elements. SNMP lets TCP/IP-Based
Network Management clients use a TCP/IP-Based internetwork to exchange
information about the configuration and status of nodes. SNMP can also generate
trap messages used to report significant TCP/IP events asynchronously to
interested clients. For Example: a router could send a message if one of its
redundant power supplies fails or a printer could send an SNMP trap when it is out
of paper.
MPEG-TS is the standard format for the transmission and storage of audio, video,
and data, and is used in broadcast systems such as DVB and ATSC. Transport
Stream is specified in MPEG-2 Part 1 Systems (formally known as ISO/IEC
standard 13818-1 or ITU-T Rec. H.222.0). Transport Stream specifies a container
format encapsulating packetized elementary streams with error correction and
stream synchronization features for maintaining transmission integrity when the
signal is degraded. Although MPEG-TS supports AAC as the audio algorithm, only
video is streamed when audio algorithm is set to G.711.
Destination IP: Set the IP Address of the Destination System which will receive MPEG-
TS stream.
Destination Port: Set the Port of the Destination System which will receive MPEG-TS
stream.
SNMP
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is compatible with both SNMPv1
and SNMPvec. Settings for using SNMP are as follows:
SNMP Listen Port (0, 161, 1025 - 65535)
This port is for connecting an external device as an SNMP client. SNMP is not
used when the value is 0.
SNMP Trap Destination IP
Set the SNMP Trap Destination IP.
SNMP Trap Destination Port (0, 162, 1025 - 65535)
Set the SNMP Trap Destination Port. SNMP is not used when the value is 0.

the Multicast Mode. The Multicast IP Address selection range is between 224.0.0.0
and 239.255.255.255. The selection can be used only when the media protocol is
set to Multicast.
DDNS
Select DDNS (Dynamic DNS) Encoder to use. One of the two can be selected:
DynDNS
DynDNS service is used in this mode. Refer to www.dyndns.org for details.
ID, Password and Domain name are needed when DynDNS is set.
Vdyn
Vdyn is a DDNS service provided by Visionica (http://visionica.com). No further
configuration is required for using this service. It internally uses the MAC address
for the registration. When it succeeds, the domain name of the form
001C63A607EC.visionica.info is displayed on Current Domain entry of the
Network page. Email setting is not mandatory.
Check IP Disable
If “Check IP Disable” is selected, it will skip to check it’s own IP. In Fixed IP Mode,
the set IP will be registered on the DDNS Encoder. In DHCP Mode, a dynamically
assigned IP will be registered on the DDNS Encoder. Normally Check IP Disable
should be unchecked in order to obtain the public IP in the network.
Bitrate Control
When more than one device is connected to the camera, due to the bandwidth
differences, some do not have enough bandwidth to receive the encoded stream
completely. In this case, it is possible to select the video options:
Frame Drop Mode: Encoding is performed strictly according to video settings.
When a device is connected through a network with less bandwidth, some frames
may be dropped.
Suppression Mode: Encoding bitrate and frame rate are adjusted so frames are
not dropped even when the network bandwidths are limited on some devices. In this
case, all devices can be affected by the averaged bitrate and frame rate.
