2 Installation

2.1 Installation Preview

There are 3 mains steps required to perform a successful installation:

 Hardware installation

 Software installation

 Network configuration

Hardware installation consists of connecting cables to the NDC including network, video, and power cables.

Software installation consists of the installation of software that is necessary to properly view the video from the NDC

or to configure the NDC itself. The software includes:

 IP Installer -- a utility for locating devices and configuring network settings on a LAN.

 Component Installer -- installs all ActiveX components used by the device for things such as video display and

configuration.

 Macromedia Flash Player -- necessary for displaying some components of the Web UI.

The following are not necessary, but may be used for convenience:

 Recording Software -- displaying and recording up to 16 channels simultaneously. Both the MPEG-4 and MJPEG

devices are supported.

 Xvid -- a MPEG-4 codec. If no other MPEG-4 codecs (ie. DivX, 3ivX, ffdshow, etc.) are installed on your computer,

the Component installer will install this for you.

 QuickTime or VLC -- though not necessary, this can be used for viewing the MPEG-4 stream without a Web

browser.

Network configuration consists of modifying the network settings for the NDC in order to successfully connect to the

device.

2.2 Hardware Installation

– Indoor Installation Structural Drawing

– Outdoor Installation Structural Drawing (Pendant Mounting)

– Embedded Mounting (False Ceiling)

Note: After dome cover is attached, use glass-cleaning cloth to clean dome cover. Unclean dome cover may

affect camera performance.

– Attached Mounting (Fixed Ceiling)

Note: After dome cover is attached, use glass-cleaning cloth to clean dome cover. Unclean dome cover may

affect camera performance.

– Pendant Mounting (External Housing)

Note: When the NDC is installed inside outdoor housing, please don’t attach dome cover. Violation may affect

camera performance.

2.3 Software Installation

With the exception of the Macromedia Flash Player all the software that is necessary for the proper display and use of

the NDC is available on the included CD or from the Web site. For the following installation procedures it is assumed

that all installation media will be taken from the CD.

IP Installer

The IP Installer is used to locate and configure network cameras and video servers on the LAN. This utility is

useful for conveniently configuring the network settings of the NDC, or for finding a device once the network

settings have been modified.

To install the IP Installer, from the installation CD UI, select IP installer, then follow the on screen instructions.

Component Installer

This will install all ActiveX components used by our devices for video display and device configuration.

Adobe Flash Player

Please visit the Macromedia Web site at http://www.adobe.com/downloads/ to download and install the Flash

Player.

2.4 Network Configuration

IP Installer is a utility that provides an easier, more efficient way to configure the IP address and network settings of the

NDC. It even provides a convenient way to set the network settings for multiple devices simultaneously using the batch

setting function. Moreover, IP Installer can save the network settings for all devices as a backup and restore them

when necessary.

– Preparation before IP Assignment

 Always consult your network administrator before assigning an IP address to your server in order to avoid using a

previously assigned IP address.

 Ensure the NDC is powered on and correctly connected to the

network.

*000429000094

 MAC Address: Each NDC has a unique Ethernet address (MAC

address) shown on the bottom of the NDC as the serial number

(S/N) with 12 digits (e.g. 000429-XXXXXX).

 One final note, although the IP Installer is able to find and configure any NDC on the LAN except those that are

behind a router, it is a good idea to set the host PC to the same subnet. In order to connect to the Web-based user

interface of the NDC, the host PC must be in the same subnet. For more information about subnets, please

consult your network administrator.

– Using IP Installer

Assigning an IP Address to NDC

4.2 Configuration of A/V Setting

– Basic A/V Settings

 Audio : Enables and Disables the audio stream.

 Resolution

There are 3 different resolutions to choose from:

D1: 720x480 NTSC / 720x576 PAL (DVD Standard resolution) ♦

♦ ♦ SIF: 352x240 NTSC / 352x288 PAL

QSIF: 176x120 NTSC / 176x144 PAL

 Frame Rate : The frame rate can be set between 5 to 30 FPS.

 Encoder Format

Format can be selected for:

MPEG4 constant bitrates: Select MPEG4 and CBR. ♦

♦

MPEG4 variable bitrates: Select MPEG4 and VBR

Motion JPEG.

 Bitrate

For Motion JPEG format, there are 4 variable bitrates between Low and High quality.

For MPEG4 format, there are 12 different constant bitrates to choose from 64Kbps to 4Mbps, and 4 variable

bitrates between Low and High quality.

If you are planning on using the device on an Internet connection, it is recommended that you select a constant

bitrate that corresponds to your actual upload speed. It is also recommended that you modify the frame rate and

resolution as well, otherwise the video stream may become blocky or otherwise distorted. The recommended

settings for low-speed network connection are as follows:

64Kbps: recommended settings are [QSIF, FPS<10]

128Kbps: recommended settings are [QSIF, FPS<15]

256Kbps: recommended settings are [SIF, FPS<10]

512Kbps: recommended settings are [SIF, FPS<15]

768Kbps: recommended settings are [Full D1, FPS<10]

1Mbps: recommended settings are [Full D1, FPS<15]

For higher frame rate use a variable bitrate instead. However, this is not recommended for Internet use.

Average Quality is recommended if the VBR is selected.

For Good Quality, full resolution (D1) and full frame rate (30/25 fps) it is recommended that not more than 4

users connect simultaneously.

For High Quality, full resolution (D1) and full frame rate (30/25 fps) it is recommended that not more than 2

users connect simultaneously.

 Auto adjust the frame rate under high traffic : After enable this option, the frame rate will be automatic adjusted to

improve the video quality when the network is heavy-loaded.

Note: Turn off audio will improve the video quality.

 Apply : Click this button to save the changes made.

– Advanced A/V Settings

 Interlacing

There are 2 modes available: Interlaced or Progressive.

Interlaced mode is a storage mode. An interlaced video stream contains fields rather than frames, with each field

containing half of the lines of a frame.

A progressive video stream consists of only full frames.

Interlaced video streams can bring a lower bitrate but may cause lower quality.

 TV Standard : The TV standard can be set among these 3 formats NTSC, PAL and SECAM.

 Sequence Mode

There are 2 different modes available:

I-frames only ♦

♦ I-frames and P-frames

P-frames, or predictive frames, are predicted based on prior P or I-frames plus some additional data. They have a

much higher compression ratio than I-frames.

I-frame only mode has very little compression resulting in large file sizes.

I-frame and P-frame mode offers relatively good compression with medium file sizes. Although this requires more

work on the host PC to decode the video.

 GOP Size: GOP stands for Group Of Pictures. It defines the number of frames from one I-frame to the next. Since

an I-frame uses very little compression, while P/B frames use much higher compression, a larger GOP size

results in smaller file sizes.

 Peak Bitrate: This is used to set a maximum bitrate that can be achieved. This is useful for setting bitrates

between the values that are available from the Video Encoder bitrate list.

 Apply: Click this button to save the changes made.

– Dynamic DNS Settings

The DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name Service) is used when users want to access the NDC with an easy memorized

name such as http://demo.ddns.pixord.com instead of http://61.220.235.172. This service could be useful when the

NDC is located behind Dial-up ADSL or IP sharing devices, which does not have fix IP address, then it’s impossible to

reach the NDC from Internet.

When the NDC enables the DDNS service, it will “register” to the DDNS server with its information, such as server

name to access, router virtual port number and updated frequency, etc.

Then NDC automatically “update” to the DDNS server by a fix frequency, so even the IP is changed by ISP, the DDNS

server still could get and update internal database. Then, once users access from Internet with its register name, e.g. if

registering with server name “demo” to DDNS server “ddns.pixord.com”, the NDC could be accessed by

http://demo.ddns.pixord.com

Dynamic DNS Settings 1

 Dynamic DNS Settings: Select [Enable] if you wish to activate the DDNS service.

 Device Name: Specify server name. This name setting also used by the DDNS service to recognize each server.

http://user.ddns.pixord.com after register to the DDNS server.

 DDNS Server Address: Specify address of the DDNS server.

 DDNS Connection Port : Specify the DDNS server listen port, and the default is “80”

 Router Incoming Port: Specify your router listen port for the DDNS server to redirect. The router may configure the

different port for incoming (Internet request) and outgoing (Intranet request), e.g. it may configure to redirect

Internet HTTP (port 80) request to Intranet port 8000, then, in this case, we must configure the “Router Incoming

Port” to 80, and inside the NDC Network settings should set HTTP port with 8000.

 Update Time: Specify the NDC updated frequency in seconds, and the default is 600 (10 minutes), this is interval

that NDC will automatically send an updated packet to the DDNS server.

 DDNS Message: Return messages from remote DDNS server, and some hints may help to diagnostic the reason

if register fails.

DDNS addr. CGI fail: ♦

♦

It means that NDC can’t communicate with Internet world. Make sure your Network Configuration has correct

subnet mask and default gateway, and DNS1 setting is correct and reachable.

Already registered:

Another user had registered this name; please change your register name by changing “Device Name”.

 Apply: Click this button to save the changes made.

Dynamic DNS Settings 2

 Dynamic DNS Settings : Select [Enable] if you wish to activate the DDNS service through DynDns.
