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.

Judgment as to the suitability of the products for users’ purposes is solely the users’ responsibility. Users shall determine the suitability of the products for their own intended application, picture rate and picture quality. In the event users intend to use the video for evidentiary purposes in a judicial proceeding or otherwise, users should consult with their attorney regarding any particular requirements for such use.

SELECTING A STREAM

1. Click the Select Stream button.

2. Select one of the following streams from the Select Stream page:

Primary Stream: To select this stream, click the button next to Primary Stream.

Secondary Stream: To select this stream, click the button next to Secondary Stream.

QuickView Stream: To select this stream, click the button next to QuickView Stream.

Event Stream: To select this stream, click the button next to Event Stream.

3. Configure the display settings for the selected stream. Available display settings are determined by the video compression of the selected stream:

4. Click the Select button to save the stream settings.

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 configuration preset 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 Presets page located in the drop-down menu of the A/V Streams tab.

To customize the Primary Stream or Secondary Stream, select the Settings page and then use the Video Configuration page located in the dropdown menu of the A/V Streams tab. Configurable settings include the stream name, compression, resolution, image rate, bit rate, and I-frame interval of the video streams. The default names for the streams are Primary Stream and Secondary Stream; however, if these stream names are changed, the new names 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 a lower resolution. This low resolution, low frame rate stream is available when the settings are being configured.

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.

EVENT STREAM

The Event Stream displays a list of alerts triggered by a running analytic behavior. 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 an analytic behavior profile running. To set up and run analytic behaviors, profiles, and zones, 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 unicast transmission setting is available in the primary and secondary stream display settings.

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. The multicast transmission setting is available in the primary and secondary stream display settings.

Network Tab

Use the Network tab to change the camera’s general network settings, select the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) settings, enable Secure Shell (SSH), configure 802.1x port security, and select Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) settings.

General Network Settings

The general network settings page includes configurable and read-only fields for IPv4 and IPv6 network communication settings. Available settings include the hardware address, host name, IPv4 settings, and IPv6 settings. The hardware address is read-only.

IPv4 settings must be configured for the device. You can enable or disable the IPv4 DHCP setting from the general network settings page. If DHCP is set to On, the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS server settings are automatically assigned to the device and are read-only text. If DHCP is set to Off, these settings must be manually configured. The default camera setting for DHCP is On.

SSL Settings

The SSL settings page includes SSL configuration modes and certificate generation. To ensure security on the Internet, all Web browsers provide several security levels that can be adjusted for sites that use SSL technology to transmit data. SSL encrypts communications, making it difficult for unauthorized users to intercept and view user names and passwords.

SSL requires signed certificates to determine if the Web browser accessing the camera has the required authentication. The camera can generate a certificate signing request (CSR) that can be sent to a certificate authority for a signature (for example, VeriSign a self-signed certificate using the Generate Self-Signed Certificate option.

), or it can generate

SSH Settings

The SSH settings page enables or disables SSH access to the camera. SSH is a user-enabled protocol that allows Pelco Product Support to log on to and service the camera for advanced troubleshooting purposes. From the SSH settings page, users with the appropriate permissions can enable or disable SSH access to the camera.

802.1x Settings

The 802.1x settings page enables or disables 802.1x port security, which authenticates devices that want to establish a point-to-point access through a wired or wireless port using Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) protocols. This port-based authentication method prevents unauthorized access to a Local Area Network (LAN) through a physical port. For example, when a device is connected to a network port, the network switch asks the device for authentication. The device replies with its credentials. If the credentials are accepted, the network switch opens the port for normal use. If authentication fails, the device is prevented from accessing information on the port.

SNMP Settings

The SNMP setting page includes SNMP configuration settings. SNMP is an application layer protocol used to manage TCP/IP-based networks from a single workstation or several workstations. The camera supports SNMP v2c and v3 and can be configured to send traps.
