1 Overview

1.1 Functions

Note:

The functions may vary depending on the models of PTZ. Limit Stops The dome can be programmed to move within the limit stops (left/right, up/down). Scan Modes The dome provides 5 scan modes: auto scan, tilt scan, frame scan, random scan and panorama scan. Pre

sets

A preset is a predefined image position. When the preset is called, the dome

will

automatically

move to the defined position. The presets can be added, mod

ifi

ed, deleted and called. Label Display The on-screen label of the preset title, azimuth/elevation, zoom, time and dome name can be displayed on the monitor. The displays of time and PTZ name can be programmed. Auto Flip In manual tracking mode, when a target object goes directly beneath the dome, the video will automatically flips 180 degrees in horizontal direction to maintain continuity of tracking. This function can also be realized by auto mirror image depending on different camera models.

3D Posit

ioning In the client software, use the left key of mouse to click on the desired position in the video image and drag a rectangle area in the lower right direction, then the dome system will move the position to the center and allow the rectangle area to zoom in. Use the left key of mouse to drag a rectangle area in the upper left direction to move the position to the center and allow the rectangle area to zoom out. Proportional Pan/Tilt Proportional pan/tilt automatically reduces or increases the pan and tilt speeds according to the amount of zoom. At telephoto zoom settings, the pan and tilt speeds will be slower than at wide zoom settings. This keeps the image from moving too fast on the live view image when there is a large amount of zoom. Auto Focus The auto focus enables the camera to focus automatically to maintain clear video images. Day/Night Auto Switch The PTZs deliver color images during the day. And as light diminishes at night, the PTZs switch to night mode and deliver black and white images with high qu

ality. Slow Shutter In slow shutter mode, the shutter speed will automatically slowdown in low illumination conditions to maintain clear video images by extending the exposure time. The feature can be enabled or disabled.

Backlight Compensation (BLC) If you focus on an object against strong backlight, the object will be too dark to be seen clearly. The BLC (Backlight Compensation) function can compensate light to the object in the front to make it clear, but this causes the over-exposure of the background where the light is strong. (Digital) Wide Dynamic Range (WDR)

The wide dynamic range (WDR) function helps the camera provide clear images even under back light circumstances. When there are both very bright and very dark areas simultaneously in the field of view, Digi tal WDR balances the brightness level of the whole image and provide clear images with det

ails. White Balance (WB) White balance can remove the unrealistic color casts. White balance is the white rendition function

of the camera to adjust the color temperature according to the environment automatic

ally. Patrol A patrol is a memorized series of pre-defined preset function. The scanning speed between two presets and the dwell time at the preset are programmable. Pattern A pattern is a memorized series of pan, tilt, zoom, and preset functions. By default the focus and iris are in auto status during the pattern is being memorized. Power Off Memory The dome supports the power off memory capability with the predefined resume time. It allows the dome to resume its previous position after power is restored. Park Act

ion

This feature allows the dome to start a predefined action automatically after a period of inact

ivity. User Management The dome allows you to edit users with different levels of permission, in the admin login status. Multiple users are allowed to access and control the same network PTZ via network simultaneous

ly.

3D Digital Noise Reduct

ion (DNR) Comparing with the general 2D digital noise reduction, the 3D digital noise reduction function processes the noise between two frames besides processing the noise in one frame. The noise will be much less and the video will be cl

earer.

2.2

Setting the IP PTZ Camera

over the WAN.

2.1 Setting the IP PTZ Camera over the LAN

Purpose:

To view and configure the PTZ via a LAN, you need to connect the network PTZ in the same subnet with your computer, and install the Provided IP Tool to search and change the IP of the network PTZ.

2.1.1

Wiring over the LAN

The following figures show the two ways of cable connection of a network PTZ and a computer:

Purpose:

To test the network PTZ, you can directly connect the network PTZ to the computer with a network cable as shown in Figure 2-1. Refer to the Figure 2-2 to set the network PTZ over the LAN via a switch or a router.

2.1.2

Detecting and Changing the IP A

ddress

You need the IP address to visit the network PTZ.

Steps:

1. To get the IP address, you can choose either of the following methods:

Use IP Tool, a software tool which can automatically detect the online network PTZs in

the LAN and list the device information including IP address, subnet mask, port number, device

serial number, device version, etc., shown in Figure 2-3.

Use the client software to list the online devices. Please refer to the user

manual of client

software for detailed information.

2. Change the IP address and subnet mask to the same subnet as that of your computer.

3. Enter the IP address of network PTZ in the address field of the web

browser to view the

live video.

Notes:

Out of the box, the camera will work on DHCP and get an IP address automatically from the DHCP server. In case a “Restore to factory default” was done, the default IP address will change to

192.168.0.99. The default user name is admin and password is admin. For accessing the network PTZ from different subnets, please set the gateway for the network PTZ after you logged in. For det

ail

ed information, please refer to Section

6.3.1 Configuring TCP/IP

Settings.

2.2 Setting the IP PTZ Camera over the WAN

Purpose:

This section explains how to connect the network PTZ to the WAN with a static IP or a dynamic IP.

2.2.1

Static IP Connection

Before you start:

Please apply a static IP from an ISP (Internet Service Provider). With the static IP address, you can connect the network PTZ via a router or connect it to the WAN direct

ly.

Connecting the network PTZ via a

router

Steps:

1. Connect the network PTZ to the router.

2. Assign a LAN IP address, the subnet mask and the gateway. Refer to Section 2.1.2

Detecting and Changing

the

IP Address

for detailed IP address configuration of the PTZ.

3. Save the static IP in the router.

4. Set port mapping, E.g., 80, 8000 and 554 ports. The steps for port mapping vary depending on

different routers. Please call the router manufacturer for assistance with port mapping.

Note:

Refer to Appendix 2 for detailed information about port mapping.

5. Visit the network PTZ through a web browser or the client software over the internet.

Connecting the network PTZ with static IP directly You can also save the static IP in the PTZ and directly connect it to the internet without using a router. Refer to Section

2.1.2 Detecting and Changing the IP

Address

for detailed IP address configuration

of the PTZ.

2.2.2

Dynamic IP Connection
