System Connections
MCC201 operates as one of two modes; as Encoder or Decoder. MCC201 systems can be connected in
either 1-to-1 fashion where one encoder is connected one decoder or 1-to-m any fashion where one encoder
connected to many decoders.
Following chart shows data status of video, audio and serial data on each mode.
Therefore, the system modes are defined by the video comm unication and all system m odes are capable of
bi-directional transmission of audio or serial data.
Topology
Generally, the encoder and a decoder are connected in 1-to-1 mode. To support specific situation,
1-to-multiple connection is also supported.
1:1 Connection (Unidirectional Transmission).
Remote Center
Encoder Decoder
The most commonly used configuration is 1 to 1 connection. An encoder is installed at a site where video
images can be transmitted and a decoder is installed at a center location to receive and view the video images
on monitors. Audio and serial data are transferred in either direction.
A decoder and encoder can be connected by setting the encoder’s address at the decoder’s remote IP.

In this configuration, a site can be monitored from many remote center locatio ns . Maximum connections would
be limited by the network bandwidth.
Functionally, the VMS (Video Management System) software can replace the decoder.
Multicast Mode
In the network support ing multicast mode, if Multicast is setup as a system protocol, you can use bandwidth
efficiently regardless of the number of dec oders. In 1:N conn ection, a large number of decoders can receive
audio and video data from an encoder by using a single streaming transmission.

In this arrangement, video and audio ca n be retransmitte d from a center to ano ther center. The arrangement
is useful when the network bandwidth at the site is limited while there is m ore than one center wanting to

Note! MCC201H supports only HDMI and analogue video formats.
Input Deinterlace
When operating with interlaced analogue video the deinterlacing function can set either ON or OFF.
Resolution
Select video encoding resolution.
Scaling option is us ed whe n encod ing reso lution is d ifferent from input resolut ion. Without scaling option
the input video is cropped according to defined encoding resolution. If scaling is enabled the input video is
adjusted to match the encoding resolution.
Framerate
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 (60) frame rate can be selected.
Preference
Available video bit rate controls are CBR (for constant bit rate) and VBR (for variable bit rate).
CBR mode presents a fixed bit rate defined for the video stream in the network. The user must define
a fixed value on the bitrate field.
VBR mode presents a variable bit rate and corresponds the changes on the video content.
When VBR mode is selected the user have to define the desired video quality level (not bitrate).
Quality
Select the video q uality level for th e VBR mode. Available le vels are Ultra fine, Very fine, Fine, N ormal,
Below normal, Economy, Poor and Very poor.
Quality mode (VBR encoding) tries to encode every frame in a constant quality. Therefore, resulting
bitrate may vary a lot depending on the complexity or activity changes in the input video. It is preferred
when constant video quality is required and network bandwidth is enough for delivering the stream of
highly varying bitrate.

MCC201/MCC201H User manual
4. Remote Configuration • 23
Bit rate
Determine bitrate value bet ween 32 ~ 10240 kbps.
Bitrate mode (CBR encoding) allows you to set a fixed target bitrate that consumes a predictable
amount of bandwidth. In order to maintain the bitrate limit, the video is dynamically controlled regardless
the complexity or content changes on the incoming video.
I-Frame Interval
The I-frame interval can b e selected between values 1 to 255. For exam ple a value of 1 is meaning t hat
every sent frame is I-frame whereas a value of 25 is meaning that every 25th frame is an I-frame.
H.264 Profile
Select H.264 Profile: High Profile or Baseline Profile.
The standard defines various sets of capabilities, which are referred to as profiles, targeting specific
classes of applications.
- High Profile (HiP)
The primary profile for br oadcast and disc storage applications, part icularly for high-definition tele vision
applications (for example, this is the profile adopted by the Blu-ray Disc storage format and the DVB
HDTV broadcast service).
- Baseline Profile (BP)
Primarily for low-cost applications that require additional data loss robustness, this profile is used in
some videoconferencing and mobile applications. This profile includes all features that are supported in
the Constrained Baseline Profile, plus three additional features that can be used for loss robustness
(or for other purposes such as low-delay multi-point video stream compositing).

One-way Streaming
This encoder provides two k inds of one-way (unid irec ti ona l) s tr eaming based on UDP to clie nts: RTP and
MPEG-TS. Both are a kind of broadcasting where traffic from client to server is not generated at all.
RTP (Real-Time Transport Protocol) is an Internet protocol used for transmitting single real-time
multimedia data such as audi o and video to a select group of connected cl ients. Normally RTSP uses
RTP to format packets of multimedia content . RTP menu is used when the RTP only streaming without
RTSP connection. RTP stream will be transm itted to the destination set. T he SDP (Session Description
Protocol) file can be found in the server, and a client can retrieve it using http connection.
Related settings are as follows:
- Destination IP: Set the IP Address of the destination system which will receive RTP stream.
If the system is decoder, RTSP authentication information can be entered in the middle of RTSP URL

MPEG-TS is a standard format for transmission and storage of audio, video, and data, [7] and is used in
broadcast systems such as DVB and ATSC. Transport Stream is specified in MPEG-2 Part 1, Systems
(formally known as ISO/IEC standard 13818-1 or ITU-T Rec. H.222.0). Transport stream specifies
a container format encapsulating packetized elementary streams, with error correction and stream
synchronization features for maintaining transmission integrity when the signal is degraded.
As MPEG-TS itself supports only AAC as the audio algorithm, only video is streamed when audio
algorithm is set to G.711.

Bitrate control
When there are more than one c lient co nnecte d to th e cam era, due to ba ndwidth differ ence am ong 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 network with less band width, it may not receive all the frames. T hat is, frames 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 bandwidths to som e clients are limited. In this cas e, all clients can be affected by the averag ed
bitrate and frame rate.
Address Information
Followed network information is displayed (Read only).
IP Address: The IP address for the video server (either defined fixed address or address assigned
by the DHCP).

This product has two sensor ports and two alarm ports.
When a decoder instead of a PC client is connected to encoder, one system becomes a Local system and
the other as a Remote system (in general a system which is being used by the user is called as Local
system). Then, actions for events can be configured for events from the remote system as well as for local
system. For example, it is possible to turn on an alarm device in local (center) decoder system when
a sensor device in remote end (site) encoder is triggered. Local section configures the actions for events
from local (self) system, and configuration activates local devices and Remote sections configure
the actions for events from remote (peer) system.
The following table lists the possible actions for events.
Action Description
Beep Triggers beep port.
Alarm out Triggers alarm (relay) port.
E-mail S ends E-mail to the specified address. AVI file can be attached.
FTP Upload AVI file to a specified FTP server.
Preset Move to the Preset position.
