Security
Every camera comes with a unique SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) certificate for securing its IP
link. SSL is a commonly used protocol for managing the security of IP message
transmission. If enabled, the SSL protocol secures I/O and proprietary VSIP communication
data. It does not apply to video transmission.
Frame Rate and Performance
The available video frame rates of each encoder IP camera are:
NTSC—1 to 7, 10, 15, or 30 frames per second (fps)
PAL—1 to 6, 8, 12, or 25 fps
The composite video signal of the camera is sent to two separate encoders. You can
customize each encoder to meet your system needs, for instance in terms of frame rate and
resolution. Here are typical scenarios regarding encoder use:

Adjusting the Image
After installing the camera, adjust the image to point to the location to be monitored and to
control parameters for low light scenes.
You can perform the following adjustment operations:
Direction (every axis can be adjusted at steps of 1.5 degrees):
Field angle (zoom)
Focus
Back light compensation (BLC): To compensate in cases where a subject with a large
amount of background light would otherwise be obscured by blooming or silhouetting.
Turbo mode for automatic gain control (AGC): To amplify the video signal more than
with the normal AGC setting; this normal setting is the default in the S2750e camera.
AGC helps maintain a constant video signal even if there are changes in brightness.
To adjust the image:

Nextiva S2750e Series User Guide
Setting Network Parameters
The first step in configuring is to provide a typical initial configuration of its network
parameters (including its IP address) to ensure compatibility with an existing network.
Note: To work properly , devices on the same network must have unique IP addresses. The
device will not prevent you from entering a duplicate address. However, its system
status LED will turn to flashing red (1-second interval); then the device will use its
default address. You then need to configure it with a proper IP address.
After providing the network settings, you complete the configuration with SConfigurator,
the web interface, or your video management software.
To set the network parameters:
1. Power the camera and establish its Ethernet connection.
Warning: Never use PoE and 12V DC at the same time. It may damage the camera.
2. Start SConfigurator by double-clicking SConfigurator.exe on your hard disk. The
SConfigurator window appears.
3. In the General tab, click Program Options. The Program Options window appears.
4. Check Detect All Units on LAN.
5. Ensure that the VSIP Port is 5510; otherwise, click Default.
6. Ensure that the Discovery IP Address is 255.255.255.255; otherwise, click Reset to
Broadcast.
7. Click OK.

Transmitter (camera)Receiver
Performing a Point-to-Point Connection
c
A point-to-point connection is the association of a transmitter and a receiver to view video
coming from an analog camera on an analog monitor. The IP camera acts as a transmitter
in this context. The Nextiva receivers are the S1970e-R and S1504e-R. You can connect
each of these receivers to up to four transmitters, to create a maximum of four different
point-to-point connections. Here is a single connection:
You can also use a point-to-point connection to transfer audio, input/output, or serial port
data, if the transmitter and receiver have these features.
Typically, both devices sit on the same IP subnet as SConfigurator and have the same VSIP
port; to access other devices, refer to the device discovery section in the Verint SConfigurator User Guide.
To associate a transmitter and a receiver in a point-to-point connection:
1. Start SConfigurator.
2. In the Units tab, discover the desired devices. The discovered devices appear in the
Units box.
3. Select the Connections tab, then click Add. The Connection Creator window appears.
4. Select a transmitter in the left column and a receiver in the right one.
In the Transmitters column, you have access to the two encoders of each input; the
video stream is the same for both. Encoder1 is always reserved for viewing live video
with the web interface, therefore you should use Encoder2 for point-to-point
connections; however, you can use the same encoder for both functions if you want the
same resolution and frame rate.
