System Connections
IP camera can be connected in either 1 to 1 connection where one camera i s connected to one PC cli ent or a
decoder sy stem or 1 to many c onnections where one sy stem can be connec ted t o sev er al PC s and decoder
syste ms. (vi deo server can work as a video decoder which takes the data f r om a v i deo server or IP camera,
decodes and outputs analog video.)
Topology
Generally, I P camera and PC or a decoder is connected in 1-to- 1 m ode or 1-to m any conguration.
l 1:1 Connection .
One cam era is installed at a site where v ideo images are transmitted. A PC or a decoder is i nstalled at a
central location to receive and view the video images on an analog monitor. Audio and serial data are
transferred in either direction.
l 1:N Connection .

In this conguration, a site can be monitored from many remote central locations. Maximum connections
would be limited by network bandwidth connection. Functionally, the VMS (Video Management System)
software provided can replace the decoder.
Multicast Mode
If the network supports multi c a st i ng, a large num ber of decoder s c an be used to receive video eec t ively from
a camera using a single streaming of video and audio. However, multicast mode is possible only when
network environment supports multicast.
Relay
Video and audio data can be retransmitted from a center to another center. T he arrangement is u seful when
the network bandwidth to the site is limited while there are more than one center want to monitor the site.
VMS ( Video Management System)
VMS (Video Management System) is a Window-based remote monitoring program in order to monitor or
control video, audio, and ev ents in real time from several IP cameras or video servers. Please refer to the
VMS User Manual for more in detail.

port.
2. Select the Output format accordingly in the end of the Video page.
Note that when Enable Preview is ON , dual streaming is not available.
When the video is transmitted directly to the monitor through BNC cabl e, t he v ideo does not go thorough
network and encoding. Therefore, there is less delay and no an eect from network limitation.
l Resolution
Select video encoding resolut ion.
l Framera
te
Determine the maximum number of frames per second for the video stream.
1,2,3,4,5,6,8,10,15,20,25 and 30 fram e ra te c an be selected. The actual f ram e ra t e of v ideo ca n be less
than the maximum frame rate set due to the network bandwidth limitation
l Preference
Select encoding mode to control video quali ty or bitrate: Quality(VBR) or Bit rate(CBR).
If ‘Bitrat e’ selected, the video encoding will be eected by the ‘Bitrate’ value entered. Therefor e, “Bi trat e”
mode c
orresponds to CBR (Constant Bit rate) encoding.
If ‘Quality’ selected, the video encoding will be eected by the quality of image selected. Therefore,
“Quality” mode corresponds to VBR (Variable Bit Rate) encoding.
l Quality
Select Video quality. 7 levels of quality are available.
Quality mode (VBR encoding) tries to encode every frame in a constant quality. Therefore, resulti ng
bitrate may vary a lot dependi
ng on
the complexity or activity changes in the input video. It is preferred
whe
n constant video quality is required and network bandwidth is enough for delivering the stream of
highly varying bitrate.
l Bit rate
Determine bitrate value between 32 ~ 10240kbps.
Bitrate mode (CBR encoding) allows you to set a xed target bitrate that consumes a predictable amount
of bandwidth. In order to k eep t he bitrate limit, video quality is controlled dynamically accordi ng t o the
complexity or activity changes in t he input video.
l I-Frame Interval
Determine I-frame Interval between 1 and 255.

One-way Streaming
l Thi s IP camera provides two k inds of one-way(unidirectional) str eaming based on UDP to clients: RTP
and MPEG-TS . Both are a kind of broadcasting where trac from client to server is not generated at all.
l RTP (Real-Time Transport Protoco l) is an Internet protocol used for transmitting single real-time
multimedia data such as audio and video to a sel ect group of connected clients. Normally RT SP uses
RTP to format packets of multimedia content. RTP menu is used
when the RTP only stre aming wi thout
RTSP connection. RTP stream will be transmitted t o the destination set. T he SDP (Session Description
Protocol) le can be found in the server, and a client c an retri eve it using http connection.
Related settings are as follows:

l MPEG-TS is a standard format for transmission and storage of audio, video, and data,[7] and is used in
broadcast systems such as D VB and ATSC. Transport Stream is specied in MPEG-2 Part 1, System s
(formall y known as ISO/IEC standard 13818- 1 or ITU-T Rec. H.222.0). Transport stream species a
container format encapsulating packetized elementary streams, with error correction and stre am
synchronization features for maintaining transmission integri ty when the signal is degraded.
As MPEG-TS itself suppo
rts only AAC as the audio algorithm, only video is streamed when audio
algorithm is set to G.711.
Related settings are as follows:
-
Destination IP : Set the IP Address of the destination system whic h will receive MPEG-TS stream
-
Destination Port : Set the Port of the destination system which will receive M PEG -TS stream
SNMP
Setup for using SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol). It is compatible to both SNMPv1
and SNMPvec. Settings for using SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) are as following
l SNMP Listen Port(0, 161, 1025 ~ 65535): The port is f or connecting external devices when system
operates as a SNMP client. SNMP is not used by setting 0 value.
l SNMP Trap Destination IP : Set the SNMP Trap Destination IP.
l SNMP Trap Destina tio n Port ( 0, 162, 1025 ~ 65535): Set the S
NMP Tra p Destinati on Port. SNMP is not
used by setting 0 value.
Multicast
l Multicast IP
The Multicast menu i s used f or conguring t he mul ti c ast I P addres s to which media stream is delivered
when a client such as a Decoder, VMS or NVR software is connected in multicast mode. The multicast IP
address selection range is between 224.0.0.0 and 239.255.255.255. The selection can be used only
when media protocol is set to Multicast.
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is used by network management systems to
communicate wit h network elements. SNMP lets TCP/IP-based network management cli ents use a
TCP/IP-based internetwork to exchange information about the conguration and status of nodes.
SNMP can also generate trap messages used to report si gnicant TCP/IP events asynchronously to
interested cli ents. For example, a router could send a message if one of it s redundant power supplies

DDNS
Select the DDNS (Dynamic DNS ) serv er to use. One of the t wo server s can be sel ec ted.
l True DNS: TrueDNS service is used in this mode. Systems can be registered on the website for
TrueDNS serv ic e: http://ns1.truecam.net
. System will get a domain name of xxx.truecam.net sty le. Please
refer to user guide document for True DNS service.
l DynDNS: DynDNS service is used in this mode. Refer www.dyndns.org
for details. ID, Password and
Domain name are needed when DynDNS is set.
l Vdyn: Vdyn is a DDNS service provided by Visionica ( http://visionica.com
). No further conguration i s
required for using thi s service. It int ernally use s MAC address for the registration. W hen it succeeds, the
domai n nam e of the form 001C63A607EC.visionica.i nfo is displayed on CurrentDomain entry of Network
page. E-mail setting is not mandatory.
l Check I P Di sable: If “ Check IP Disable” i s selec ted, it will skip to check its own IP. In Fixed I P m ode, the
set IP will be registered on DDNS server. In DHCP m ode, dynamically assigned I P will be registered on
DDNS server. Normally Check IP Disable should be unchecked in order to obtain public IP in the network.
Bitrate control
When t here are more than one client connected to the camer a, due to bandwidth dierenc e among the cli ents
some of them do not have enough bandwidth to receive encoded stream completely. In this case, it is possible
to select the way to stream video to clients as following.
- Frame Drop Mode: Encoding is performed strictly according to video settings. When a client is
connected through a net work wit h l ess bandwidth, it may not r eceive all the frames. That is, f rames are
dropped on sending module
if the network is bottlenecked.
- Suppression Mode: Encoding bitrate and frame rate are adjusted not to drop any frames when the
network band widths to some clients are limited. In this case, all clients can be aected by the aver aged
bitrate and frame rate.
Dynamic DNS is a method, protocol, or net work service that provides the capability for a networked
device, such as a router or computer system using the Internet Protocol Suite, to notify a domain
name server to change, in real time (ad-hoc) the active DNS conguration of its congured
hostnames, addres ses or ot her info r mation st ored in DNS.
