VIDEO QUALITY CAUTION

FRAME RATE NOTICE REGARDING USER-SELECTED OPTIONS

Pelco systems are capable of providing high quality video for both live viewing and playback. However, the systems can be used in lower quality modes, which can degrade picture quality, to allow for a slower rate of data transfer and to reduce the amount of video data stored. The picture quality can be degraded by either lowering the resolution, reducing the picture rate, or both. A picture degraded by having a reduced resolution may result in an image that is less clear or even indiscernible. A picture degraded by reducing the picture rate has fewer frames per second, which can result in images that appear to jump or move more quickly than normal during playback. Lower frame rates may result in a key event not being recorded by the system.

Introduction

The IXE Series is an extended platform network-based camera with a built-in, Web-based viewer for live streaming to a standard Web browser (Microsoft Endura Enabled
®
Internet Explorer® or Mozilla
and compatible with Digital Sentry
The camera supports two compression formats and many resolutions. The two standard compression formats include H.264 and MJPEG. The dual streams can be configured for a variety of resolutions, frame rates, and bit rates.
The IXE Series includes 1.3 and 2.1 megapixel (MPx) models available in two camera styles: color or day/night. The day/night model has an mechanical IR cut filter that increases camera sensitivity in low-light situations. The camera uses a 1/3-inch imager and accommodates CS-mount lenses.
The camera also includes built-in Power over Ethernet (PoE), which supplies power to the camera through the network. If PoE is not available, the camera is prewired for 24 VAC.

BUILT-IN ANALYTICS

All IXE Series models are preloaded with user-configurable behaviors. The device is capable of running up to three behaviors at the same time; however, the number of behaviors is limited to the available processing power of the camera and the type of analytic being used.
Pelco analytics are configured and enabled using a standard Web browser. The behaviors are also compatible with Endura system that supports the Pelco Analytics API. Refer to the specific product documentation for instructions on how to configure and enable Pelco analytics.
Models are also available with ObjectVideo management system to configure and enable the OV Analytic Suites that are preloaded on the camera. Refer to the ObjectVideo documentation for instructions on how to configure and enable OV analytics.

Connecting Alarms
The camera provides an alarm input for external signaling devices, such as door contacts or motion detectors. Both normally open and normally closed devices are supported.
Supervised Alarms
When an alarm is configured as a supervised alarm, the camera maintains a constant electrical current through the alarm circuit (3.3 VDC, 1 ohm). If the alarm circuit length changes, due to an electrical short or a bypass, the voltage fluctuates from its normal state and activates an alarm.
NOTE: Install the 1-kohm resistor as close to the switch as possible.
Figure 10 illustrates the alarm and no alarm conditions of a supervised alarm input. Whether the alarm is normally closed or normally open, neither a cut nor a bypass can defeat these alarms.

Compression Standards on page 49
Image Rate on page 50

PRIMARY STREAM AND SECONDARY STREAM

The Primary Stream and Secondary Stream are video streams that include compression, resolution, image rate, and bit rate settings. The streams can be set up using a video preset setting, or they can be customized using the video configuration settings.
A video preset is a predefined video configuration that offers a good balance between video performance and bandwidth usage. For easy stream configuration, use the Video Preset page located in the drop-down menu of the A/V Streams Tab.
To customize the Primary Stream or Secondary Stream use the Video Configuration page located in the drop-down menu of the A/V Streams Tab. Configurable settings include the stream name, compression standard, resolution setting, image rate, and bit rate. The default names for the streams are Primary Stream and Secondary Stream; however, if these stream names have been changed, the new names will replace the default names (Primary Stream and Secondary Stream) on the Select Stream page.

QUICKVIEW STREAM

The QuickView Stream is a predefined JPEG video stream with VGA resolution. This low resolution, low frame rate stream is displayed when the Imaging Tab settings are configured. This allows users to view changes to exposure, white balance, and tone map settings as they are configured and before the settings are saved.
The QuickView Stream is also ideal for users who are connected to a network with processor bandwidth limitations that might cause a high resolution, high frame rate video stream to pause or appear pixilated.
The aspect ratio of the QuickView Stream mirrors that of the Primary Stream. The only stream setting that is selectable is the framerate: 2 ips or 1 ips.

EVENT STREAM

The Event Stream displays a list of alerts triggered by a running behavior (analytic). The alert includes a screen capture, the profile that was triggered, and the zone where the alert was detected. For the Event Stream to work you must have a behavior profile running. To set up and run behaviors, use the Analytic Configuration page located in the drop-down menu of the Events Tab.

UNICAST

A unicast transmission sends a separate video stream to each user that is requesting data. Although multiple users might request the same data from the camera at the same time, duplicate video streams are transmitted to each user. Every unicast user that connects to the camera consumes additional processing power, which limits the number of simultaneous users who can access the camera.
The camera supports a maximum of 20 simultaneous users.

MULTICAST

A multicast transmission sends data to multiple users at the same time using one transmission stream. Each multicast user that connects to the camera consumes no additional processing power; therefore, multicast video streams can be sent to an unlimited number of simultaneous users.

TAKING A SNAPSHOT

1. Click the “Take a Snapshot” button.
2. The File Download dialog box opens, and the following message appears: “Do you want to open or save this file?”
3. Select one of the following options:
Open: Your computer’s photo editing program opens and displays the screen image. This function is available only when using Microsoft
Save: The image is saved as a JPEG file on your computer.
Cancel: The captured image is not saved or displayed and the dialog box closes.
NOTE: If you are using JPEG, the captured image will be the size of the largest MJPEG stream. If you are using H.264, the image is captured
using the QuickView Stream, which is approximately VGA resolution.

DISPLAYING VIDEO IN THE MULTISCREEN VIEW

Cameras connected to the same virtual local area network (VLAN) as the camera to which you are logged on can be displayed in a multiscreen view. Use the 4-camera, 9-camera, or 16-camera view mode buttons to display video from multiple cameras simultaneously.
The camera you are logged on to is the default display for the upper-left video pane in the multiscreen view. The device name for this camera is displayed in the gray area near the top of the page.
NOTE: Using Primary and Secondary streams in multiscreen view will limit the available processing power and create responsiveness issues for the camera and PC. If you experience latency issues, set the camera streams to QuickView. Available processing power is determined by the settings for compression standards, resolution, image rate, bit rate, and analytic configuration.
To select video to display in the individual multiscreen panes:
1. Click the desired View Mode display button.
2. Click the Show Device List button above the selected video pane. A list of cameras connected to the same VLAN as the camera to which you are logged on appears in the video pane.
3. Click the name of the camera you want to view. The live video of the selected camera appears in the video pane.
4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 for the remaining video panes.
