2.3 Connection
2.3.1 Default IP address
Since this is a network-based unit, an IP address must be assigned at the very first. The unit’s default IP
address is 192.168.1.30 and sub mask is 255.255.255.0. However, if you have a DHCP server in your network,
the unit would obtain an IP address automatically from the DHCP server so that you don’t need to change the
camera’s IP address. But be sure to enable DHCP in "Network/Basic settings".
2.3.2 Connecting from a computer & Viewing Preparation
2.3.2.1 Connecting from a computer
1. Make sure the unit and your computer are in the same subnet.
2. Check whether if the networking available between the unit and the computer by executing ping the
default IP address. To do this, simply start a command prompt (Windows: from the Start Menu, select
Program. Then select Accessories and choose Command Prompt.) , and type “Ping 192.168.0.30”. If the
message “Reply from…” appears, it means the connection is available.
3. Start Internet Explorer and enter IP address: 192.168.1.30. A login window should pop up. In the window,
enter the default user name: admin and password: 1234 to log in.
Further administration on the unit can be found in “3. Administration and Configuration".

3.2.1.2 Exposure
Automatic Exposure
Automatic Exposure controls the light intensity of picture. There are three options, AES (Automatic
Electronic Shutter), ALC, and Flickerless, to adjust for adjustment depending on conditions.
Slow Shutter
Slow Shutter can be enabled if the sensitivity is still not good enough under “High” gain condition at dark.
Optimal image level can be maintained by appropriate gain and shutter combination that determined
automatically inside the unit system. Slow Shutter can be selected from OFF, 1/30, 1/15, and 1/7.5. As
slow shutter activates, the exposure time becomes longer and frame rate becomes smaller, and moving
objects may result in blurred images.
Max Gain
Set max gain. You can drag the bar to adjust gain level from 0 to 36.
27
Manual Exposure
Select this option to manually define exposure values of the unit.
Exposure Time
Set desired Exposure Time from 1/60s to 1/8000s. When broadcast TV system is set to PAL, the Shutter
Speed can be set at 1/50, 1/100, 1/250, 1/500, 1/1000, 1/2000, 1/40 00, or 1/8000s; when NTSC, 1/60,
1/120, 1/250, 1/500, 1/1000, 1/2000, 1/4000, or 1/8000s. The unit will adjust the aperture according to
the amount of ambient light. Selecting 1/8000s provides the dark image.
IRIS Control
Adjust the DC IRIS opening level until the image is neither too bright nor too dark. Select Open to open
the IRIS to its maximum or select Close to close the IRIS so that no light is let into the lens. When Auto
is selected, the IRIS will automatically compensate according to the light conditions. Level can be set
from level 1 to 8. The higher the level, the more possible the IRIS will open so that the more light is let
into the lens.
Illumination Control
Specify the IR illuminator behavior according to the installation applications.
When Auto is selected, the light sensor automatically turns the illuminator on or off according to the
ambient light conditions. Select ON to enforce the illuminator to be always on or OFF to be always off.
Manual Gain
Set Manual Gain value from 0 to 36dB. This function applies to manual lens only. 36dB brightens the
image and 0dB darkens the image.
28
EV Adjustment
EV Adjustment can be set between 2.0 to -2.0.
Day / Night
To set DAY/NIGHT function, simply move the cursor to select Auto, Color, or BW mode. If Color selected,
the unit is forced to stay in COLOR mode all day. If BW selected, the unit is forced to stay in NIGHT
mode all day.
Noise Reduction
Noise reduction is the process of removing noise from signal. Users can configure the noise reduction
related setting 0~255 to reduce noise on the screen. Selecting 255 provides the best image without
noise.
BLC (Backlight Compensation)
Set an area for Backlight Compensation. Backlight Compensation is a function that achieves the brightness of
a selected area to optimal image level. This function is necessary when an auto iris lens tends to close due to
an intense light coming from back of object in the area wished to view so that the area is too dark and difficult
to see. In this case, users may set the area correspond to the portion wished to see. The area size
illustrations are roughly as follows.
WDR (Wide Dynamic Range)
It is intended to provide clear images even under backlight circumstances where intensity of illumination
can vary excessively namely where there are both very bright and very dark areas simultaneously in the
field of view. WDR enables the capture and display of both bright and dark areas in the same frame, in a
way that there are details in both areas, i.e. bright areas are not saturated, and dark areas are not too
dark.
29
Note
Please click “Save” button to save your settings. Users can also click “Reset to Default” to set
all the data and options back to defaults.
3.2.1.3 White Balance
White Balance controls color on the screen. Mode can be set to Auto (default) or Manual mode. The color
temperature range is 2800°K ~ 8500°K.
Set manual gain value of R Gain, G Gain, & B Gain from level 0 to 255.
The red (R) gain is used to adjust the color red in the viewing image. It allows adjusting red gain
manually according to user requirement ranging from level 0 to 255.
The green (G) gin is used to adjust the color of green in the viewing image. It allows adjusting green
gain manually according to user requirement ranging from level t o 255.
The blue (B) gain is used to adjust the color of blue in the viewing image. It allows adjusting blue gain
manually according to user requirement ranging from level 0 to 255.
3.2.1.4 Basic Color
Brightness adjustment
Set picture brightness from level -255 to 255. Selecting 255 provides brightest the image.
Contrast
Set picture contrast from level 0 to 255. Selecting 255 provides highest contrast.
Hue
Set picture hue from level -15~15. Selecting 15 provides the deep hue.
30
Saturation
Saturation describes the difference of a color from the gray of the same lightness. Increasing saturation
deepens the colors of your images, making reds redder and blues bluer. Users can adjust picture saturation
level from 0 to 255. Decreasing saturation brings the image closer to a grayscale (that is, monochrome or
black-and-white) image. Selecting 255 provides highest image saturation.
Sharpness
Increasing the sharpness value will sharpen the edges and small feature of viewing images. If the edges
appear too smooth or blurred, increase the sharpness; otherwise, decrease the sharpness. Sharpness value
can be set from 0 to 15. Selecting 15 provides the sharpest image.
Gamma Correction
Set gamma correction. You can select “1” or “0.45”.
Flip Mirror
Set image to be left or right, upside or down and both. Select “OFF”, “Flip”, “Mirror” or” Both” to activate or
deactivate the mirror function.
Note
Please click “Save” button to save your settings. Users can also click “Reset to Default” to set

and width of the privacy zone to meet this rule. After rounding the algorithm, the result of
privacy zone will be plus or minus 16% of the user selected area.
33
3.2.1.6 ROI

Metadata
Metadata plays a significant role for media applications especially for ONVIF compatible NVR.
Turn on the metadata option and there will be an additional track in the RTSP connection response
37
message.
The additional track name is “vnd.onvif” and this track is for event data transmission. Once if the
event(motion, alarm) is triggered, RTSP server will transmit event data to RTSP client(usually NVR).
RTSP client can receive these data and analyze them. The event data usually includes event trigger
time, coordinate…etc.
