Document Update This addendum provides an explanation of features added in the Sarix 1.8.2 firmware release.
Customizing the Appearance of the Text Overlay
1. Click the System tab.
2. Select General Settings from the drop-down menu.
3. Set the Text Overlay settings:
Date/Time Overlay: Select Show to display the date and time in the live view overlay. The default setting is Hide.
Camera Name Overlay: Select Show to display the device name in the live view overlay. The default setting is Hide.
4. (Optional) Select the display position for the overlay from the Position drop-down menu. Selections include Top Right, Top Center, Top Left, Bottom Right, Bottom Center, and Bottom Left.
5. (Optional) Select the format in which the date and time will appear from the Overlay Format drop-down field if you have opted to show the Date/Time Overlay.
Authentication Mode
Authentication Mode settings determine whether or not viewing video and accessing the camera API requires user authentication.
Open Authentication: Allows users to view video and use the camera API without validating user credentials. With Open Authentication selected, you can select “Require password for PTZ” to limit PTZ control to authenticated users.
Closed Authentication: Requires users to possess valid credentials to view video and access the camera API. Before selecting Closed Authentication, ensure that your video management system supports Closed Authentication mode.
CONFIGURING AUTHENTICATION MODE
1. Select Open Authentication or Closed Authentication.
2. (Optional) Select “Require password for PTZ” control to require user authentication for PTZ control even if Open Authentication is selected.
NOTE: Ensure that your video management system supports closed authentication before selecting Closed Authentication.
User and Group Management
Sarix cameras support two methods for managing the permissions of users and groups.
Local Mode: The camera manages users and groups locally. This is the default setting.
Remote Mode: The camera authenticates and manages users through an LDAP server supported by Microsoft
administrators to tie cameras and group permissions into existing single sign-on services (SSO). Selecting Remote Mode disables local user management settings.
ENABLING REMOTE MODE
1. Click the Users tab.
2. Select Remote Mode under User and Group Management.
3. Type the IP address or hostname of the LDAP server in the LDAP Server box.
4. Type the port over which the camera will communicate with the LDAP server in the LDAP Port box. The default port for LDAP Communications is 389.
5. Type the distinguished name (DN) that is the basis for LDAP searches in the Base DN box.
6. Provide the template to format the username (provided when the user logs on to the camera) for searches in the LDAP directory in the Bind DN Template box.
7. Provide the LDAP search query for users found in the base DN in the Search Template box. The search must match an entry in the LDAP user record to the bind name (username).
8. Input Group Mappings for each of the camera’s four user groups: a. Input the common name (CN) and DN for the group of users to whom you want to grant admin access in the Admins box.
b. Input the CN and DN for the group of users to whom you want to grant manager access in the Managers box.
c. Input the CN and DN for the group of users to whom you want to grant operator access in the Operators box.
d. Input the CN and DN for the group of users to whom you want to grant viewer access in the Viewers box.
9. In the User and Password boxes, input the credentials of a user who can be authenticated through the LDAP server.
NOTE: Remote Mode (LDAP authentication) will not be enabled if you leave these fields blank or do not provide valid credentials; this ensures that you cannot lock yourself out of the camera with invalid or incorrect LDAP settings.
10. Click Save.

Port Settings
Port settings appear under the System Settings heading in the General Settings section of the Network tab. These settings determine the ports over which the camera communicates for HTTP, HTTPS, and RTSP protocols. Contact your network administrator before changing port settings to ensure that your port settings do not conflict with your network infrastructure.
SETTING THE HTTP PORT
NOTE: The HTTP port number must remain at the default setting (80) when connecting to a Pelco video management system (VMS) platform. If connecting
to a Pelco VMS, do not change the HTTP port setting.
1. Place your mouse cursor over the Network tab.
2. Select General from the drop-down menu.
3. Type the new port number in the HTTP Port field. The default port for HTTP communications is 80.
4. Click Save. If you have changed the setting in error, you can click reset to revert to the previously saved setting.
SETTING THE HTTPS PORT
NOTE: The HTTPS port is not configurable unless you have set SSL Mode to Optional or Required and installed a security certificate.
1. Place the mouse cursor over the Network tab.
2. Click General from the drop-down menu.
3. Type the new port number in the HTTPS Port field. The default port for HTTPS communications is 443.
4. Click Save. If you have changed the setting in error, you can click reset to revert to the previously saved setting.
SETTING THE RTSP PORT
1. Place the mouse cursor over the Network tab.
2. Click General from the drop-down menu.

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.
