1 Monitor images on a PC

The following are descriptions of how to monitor images from the camera on a PC.

1.1 Monitor images from a single camera

1. Start up the web browser.

2. Enter the IP address designated using the Panasonic “IP Setting Software” in the address box of the

browser.

• Example when entering an IPv4 address: http://URL registered using IPv4 address

http://192.168.0.10/

• Example when entering an IPv6 address: http://[URL registered using IPv6 address]

http://[2001:db8::10]/

IMPORTANT

• When the HTTP port number is changed from “80”, enter “http://IP address of the camera + : (colon)

+ port number” in the address box of the browser. (Example: http://192.168.0.11:8080)

• When the PC is in a local network, configure the proxy server setting of the web browser (under

[Internet Options...] under [Tools] of the menu bar) to bypass the proxy server for the local address.

Note

• Refer to page 184 for further information about the case in which “HTTPS” is selected for

“HTTPS” - “Connection” on the [Advanced] tab of the “Network” page (®page 159).

3. Press the [Enter] key on the keyboard.

→ The “Live” page will be displayed. Refer to page 19 for further information about the “Live” page.

When “On” is selected for “User auth.”, the authentication window will be displayed before displaying live images for the user name and password entries. The default user name and password are as follows. User name: admin Password: 12345

IMPORTANT

• To enhance the security, change the password for the user name “admin”. It is recommended to change

this password periodically.

• When displaying multiple H.264 images on a PC, images may not be displayed depending on the

performance of the PC.

Note

• The maximum number of concurrent access user is 14 including users who is receiving H.264 images

and users who are receiving JPEG images. Depending on the set values for “Bandwidth control(bit rate)” and “Max bit rate (per client)”, the maximum concurrent access number may be 14 or less users. When 14 users are concurrently accessing, the access limit message will be displayed for users who subsequently attempt to access. When “Multicast” is selected for “Transmission type” of “H.264”, only the first user who accessed to monitor H.264 images will be included in the maximum number. The second and subsequent users who are monitoring H.264 images will not be included in the maximum number.

• When “On” is selected for “H.264 transmission” (®page 99), H.264 images will be displayed. When

“Off” is selected, a JPEG image will be displayed. It is possible to display a JPEG image even when “On” is selected for “H.264 transmission”. In this case, the refresh interval of JPEG images will be limited to 5fps.

• The refresh interval may become longer depending on a network environment, PC performance,

photographic subject, access traffic, etc.

<Refresh interval of JPEG images> When “On” is selected for “H.264 transmission”

max. 5fps

When “Off” is selected for “H.264 transmission”

5.1 Transmit an alarm image at an alarm occurrence (Alarm image transmission)

An alarm image can be transmitted at an alarm occurrence to the FTP server. To transmit alarm images to an FTP server, it is necessary to configure the settings in advance. FTP server settings and settings relating to alarm image transmission can be configured in the “FTP” section of the [Advanced] tab of the “Network” page. (®page 166) Settings can also be configured from the “Alarm image FTP transmission” settings of “Camera action on alarm” on the [Alarm] tab of the “Alarm” page. (®page 137)

Note

• Depending on the network traffic, the number of the transmitted images may not reach the set number

of images to be transmitted.

• Alarm images failed to be transmitted to the FTP server at an alarm occurrence will not be saved on

the SD memory card. However, images that fail to be transmitted with the FTP periodic image transmission will be saved. When “On” is selected for both the alarm image transmission function and the FTP periodic image transmission function, the alarm image transmission function will be given priority over the FTP periodic image transmission function. Also, when “On” is selected for the “FTP transmission retry” FTP setting (®page 168), alarm images will be retransmitted if there is an FTP transmission failure. Therefore, if there is continuous retransmission due to network problems or other factors, periodic transmission will not be performed and images that fail to be transmitted with the FTP periodic image transmission will not be saved to an SD memory card.

5.2 Transmit images at a designated interval or period (FTP periodic image transmission)

Images can be transmitted at a designated interval or period. To transmit images at a designated interval or period, it is necessary to configure the settings in advance. FTP server settings and settings relating to FTP periodic transmission image transmission can be configured in the “FTP” section of the [Advanced] tab of the “Network” page.

Page 44

5 Transmit images onto an FTP server

• When “On” is selected for both the alarm image transmission function and the FTP periodic image

transmission function, the alarm image transmission function will be given priority over the FTP periodic image transmission function. Therefore, images may not be transmitted at the interval designated on the “FTP periodic image transmission” setting.

5.3 Save images on the SD memory card when images fail to transmit using the FTP periodic image transmission function

Images that have failed to transmit using the FTP periodic image transmission can be saved automatically on the SD memory card. It is possible to select a trigger to save images on the SD memory card on the [SD memory card] tab of the “Basic” page. (®page 70) To use the SD memory recording function featured in Panasonic network disk recorder, select “Off” for “FTP periodic image transmission” (®page 169) and “FTP error” for “Save trigger” of “Recording stream” (®page 71).

Note

• When “On” is selected for both the alarm image transmission function and the FTP periodic image

transmission function, the alarm image transmission function will be given priority over the FTP periodic image transmission function. Also, when “On” is selected for the “FTP transmission retry” FTP setting (®page 168), alarm images will be retransmitted if there is an FTP transmission failure. Therefore, if there is continuous retransmission due to network problems or other factors, periodic transmission will not be performed and images that fail to be transmitted with the FTP periodic image transmission will not be saved to an SD memory card.

• Advanced VBR: H.264 images are transmitted at the frame rate specified for “Frame rate*” while the image

quality is controlled so that the average transmission rate during the period specified for “Control time period” becomes the bit rate selected for “Max bit rate (per client)*”.

• Default: Frame rate

Note

• When “Frame rate” or “Advanced VBR” is selected for “Transmission priority”, number of users who

can access the camera may be limited more (may become less than 10).

[Frame rate*]

Select a frame rate for H.264 images from the following. 1fps/ 3fps/ 5fps*/ 7.5fps*/ 10fps*/ 12fps*/ 15fps*/ 20fps*/ 30fps*

• Default: 15fps*

Note

• When “Frame rate”, “Advanced VBR”, or “VBR” is selected for “Transmission priority”, this setting is

available.

• “Frame rate*” is restricted by “Max bit rate (per client)*”. For this reason, the frame rate may be lower

than the specified value when any value marked with an asterisk (*) is selected. When “VBR” is selected for “Transmission priority”, depending on the settings of “Max bit rate (per client)*” and “Image quality”, transmission of images may periodically be paused. Check the transmission of images after changing settings.

[Burst tolerance level]

Select how much the bit rate can exceed “Max bit rate (per client)*” by from the following. High/Middle/Low

• Default: Low

Note

• This setting is only available when “Advanced VBR” is selected for “Transmission priority”.

[Control time period]

Select the time period that the bit rate will be controlled for from the following. Images are transmitted so that the average transmission rate during the selected period becomes the bit rate selected for “Max bit rate (per client)*”. 1h/6h/24h/1week

• Default: 24h

Note

• This setting is only available when “Advanced VBR” is selected for “Transmission priority”.

[Max bit rate (per client)*]

Select a H.264 bit rate per a client from the following. When “Best effort” is selected for “Transmission priority”, set the maximum and minimum bit rates. 64kbps/ 128kbps*/ 256kbps*/ 384kbps*/ 512kbps*/ 768kbps*/ 1024kbps*/ 1536kbps*/ 2048kbps*/ 3072kbps*/ 4096kbps*/ 6144kbps*/ 8192kbps*/ 10240kbps*/ 12288kbps*/ 14336kbps*/ 16384kbps*/ 20480kbps*/ 24576kbps*/ 30720kbps*

• Default: – H.264(1): 8192kbps* – H.264(2): 1536kbps*

* The range of bit rates that can be configured for H.264 bit rates differs depending on the “Transmission priority” and “Image capture size”. When “Constant bit rate”, “Frame rate”, “Advanced VBR”, or “Best effort” is selected for “Transmission priority”
