Network Connection and IP assignment
The network camera is designed for use on an Ethernet network and requires an IP address for access. Most networks today have a DHCP server that automatically assigns IP addresses to connected devices. By the factory default, your camera is set to obta in the IP address automatically via DHCP server. If your network does not have a DHCP server the network camera will use 192.168.1.100 as the default IP address.
If DHCP is enabled and the product cannot be accessed, run the “Smart Manager” utility to search and allocate an IP address to your products, or reset the product to the factory default settings and then perform the installation again. The utility can be found on the Vicon website www.vicon-security.com
, on the Software
Downloads page for Vicon cameras

2) Network
The network camera supports both IP version 4 and IP version 6. Both versions may be enabled simultaneously, and at least one version must always be enabled. When using IPv4, the IP address for the network camera can be set automatically via DHCP, or a static IP address can be set manually. If IPv6 is enabled, the network camera receives an IP address according to the configura tion in the network router. There is also the opt ion of using the Internet Dynamic DNS Service. For more information on setting the network, refer to Setup> System>Security>Network.
• Obtain IP address via DHCP - Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a protocol that lets network administrators centrally manage and automate the assignment of IP addresses on a network. DHCP is enabled by default. Although a DHCP server is mostly used to set an IP address dynamically, it is also possible to use it to set a static, known IP address for a particular MAC address.
• Use the following IP address - To use a static IP address for the network cam er a, check the radio button and then make the following settings:
- IP address: Specify a unique IP address for your network camera.
- Subnet mask: Specify the mask for the subnet where the network camera is located.
- Default router: Specify the IP address of the default router (gateway) used for connecting devices attached to different networks and network segments.
Notes:
1. DHCP should only be enabled if using dynamic IP address notification, or if your DHCP server can update a
DNS server, which then allows you to access the network camera by name (host name). If DHCP is enabled and the unit cannot be accessed, you may have to reset it to the factory default settings and then perform the installation again.
2. The ARP/Ping service is automatically disabled two minutes after the unit is started, or as soon as an IP address is set.
3. Pinging the unit is still pos sible when this service is disabled.
21
3) Video & Image
• Sensor Setting:
- Capture mode: User can select sensor capture mode between 1920x1080 (2MP)/2592x1520 (4MP) and NTSC/PAL.
• Stream1 Setting
- Codec: The codec supported in Stream 1 is H.264 or H.265. There are 3 pre-programmed stream profiles availa b le for quick set-up. Choose the form of video encoding to use from the drop -down list:
* H . 264 High Profile: The primary profile for broadcast and disc storage applications, particularly for
high-definition television applications (for example, this is the profile adopted by the Blu-Ray Disc storage format and the DVB HDTV broadcast service).
* H.264/H.265 Main Profile:
Primarily for low-cost applications that require additional error robustness, this profile is used rarely in video-conferencing and mobile applications; it doe s add additional error resilience tools to the
22
Constrained Baseline Profile. The importance of this profile is fading after the Constrained Baseline Profile has been defined.
* H.264 BP (Baseline Profile):
Originally intended as the mainstream consumer profile for broadcast and storage applications, the importance of this profile faded when the High Profile was developed for those applications.
- Resolution:
Resolution enables users to determine a basic screen size when having access through the Web Browser or PC program. The screen size provides several modes, such as 2592x1520, 2304x1296, 1920x1080, 1440x1080, 1280x1024, 1280x720, 1024x768, 704x480(576), 640x480, 400x240, and 320x240. Users can reset the selected screen size anytime while monitoring the screen on a real-time basis.
- Bitrate control: The bit rate can be set as Constant Bit Rate (CBR) or Constrained Variable Bit Rate (CVBR). Constant bit rate means that the rate at which a codec's output data should be consumed is constant. CBR is useful for streaming on limited capacity channels since it is the maximum bit rate that matters, not the average, so CBR would be used to take advantage of all of the capacity. CBR would not be the optimal choice for storage as it would not allocate enough data for complex sections (resulting in degraded quality) while wasting data on simple sections.
* CBR: Constant bitrate. * CVBR: VBR with maximum bitrate which is set in Bitrate.
- Bitrate: Maximum bitrate for CBR or CVBR in the range of 100kbps ~ 8Mbps.
- Frame rate:
Upon real-time play, users should select a frame refresh rate per second. If the rate is high, the image will become smooth; if the rate is low, the image will not b e natural but it can reduce a network load.
- GOP size:
Select the GOP (Group of Picture) size. If users want to have a high quality fast image one after the other, decrease this value. For general monitoring purposes, do not change a basic value; this may cause a problem to the system performance. Vicon recommends that GOP be the same as the fps.
Stream2 Setting
Sometimes the image size is large due to low light or complex scenery. Adjusting the frame rate and quality helps to control the band width and storage used by the Motion JPEG video stream in these situations. Limiting the frame rate and quality optim izes bandwidth and storage usage, but may give poor image quality. To prevent increased bandwidth and storage usage, the Resolution, Frame Rate, and Frame Quality should be set to an optimal value.
- MJPEG resolution: Same as the stream1 setting.
- MJPEG frame rate: Same as the stream1 setting.
- JPEG quality: Select the picture quality. If users want to have a high quality fast image one after the other, decrease the value. For general monitoring purposes, do not change a basic value. Such act may cause a problem to the system performance.
• Stream3, Steam4 Setting: Same as the Stream1 settings.
When the settings are complete, click Save, or click Reset to revert to previously saved settings.
23
4) Audio

Check the box to enable audio in the video stream.
- Compression type: Select the desired audio compression format, G711. The "u-law is for North America and Japan; the "a-law" is for Europe and the rest of the world.
- Sample rate:
Select the required Sample rate (number of times per second the sound is sampled). The higher the sample rate, the better the audio quality and the greater the bandwidth required.
- Sound bitrate:
Depending on the selected encoding, set the desired audio quality (bitrate). The settings affect the available bandwidth and the required audio quality.
• Audio Input
Audio from an internal or external line source can be connected to the I/O terminal of the network camera.
- Input: User can select amplifier between internal Amp or external Amp.
- Input volum e:
If there are problems with the sound input being too low or high, it is possible to adjust the input gain for the microphone attached to the network camera. A Mute button is provi ded; check the box to hear no sound on the device.
24
• Audio Output
- Enable full duplex:
Check the box to enable Full Duplex mode. This means that audio (talk and listen) can be transmitted and received at the same time, without having to use any of the contr ols. This is just like having a telephone conversation. A Mute button is provided; check the box to hear no sound from the speakers.
This mode requires that the client PC has a sound card with support for full-duplex audio.
- Output volume:
If the sound from the speaker is too low or high it is possible to adjust the output gain for the active speaker attached to the network camera.
When the settings are complete, click Save, or click Reset to revert to previously saved settings.

QoS Quality of Service (QoS) provides the means to guarantee a certain level of a specified resource to selected traffic on a network. Quality can be defined as a maintained level of bandwidth, low latency, and no packet losses.
The main benefits of a QoS-aware network are:
- The abilit y to prioritize traffic and thus allow critical flows to be served before flows with lesser priority.
- Greater reliability in the network, due to the control of the amount of bandwidth an application may use,
and thus control over bandwidth races between applications.
• DSCP Settings
For each type of network traffic supported by your network video product, enter a DSCP (Differentiated Services Code Point) value. This value is used to mark the traffic’s IP header. When the marked traffic reaches a network router or switch, the DSCP value in the IP header tells the router or switch which type of treatment to apply to this type of traffic, for example, how much bandwidth to reserve for it. Note that DSCP values can be entered in decimal or hex form, but saved values are always shown in decimal.
The following types of traffic are marked; enter a value for each type of traffic used:
- Live Stream DSCP
- Event/Alarm DSCP
- Management DSCP
• Automatic Traffic Control
Check the box to enable automatic traffic control. Set a limitation on user network resources by d esignating the maximum bandwidth. Select either the Maximum bandwidth or Automatic framerate radio button.
- Maximum bandwidth - When sharing other network programs or equipment, it is
possible to set a limitation on the maximum bandwidth in the unit of Mbit/s or kbit/s.
- Automatic frame rate - Selected if not influenced by a network-related program or
equipment without a limitation on the networ k bandwidth.
When the settings are complete, click Save, or click Reset to revert to previously saved settings.

NAT (Port Mapping)l A broadband router allows devices on a private network (LAN) to share a single connection to the Internet. This is done by forwarding network traffic from the private network to the “outside,” that is, the Internet. Security on the private network (LAN) is increased since most broadband routers are pre-configured to stop attempts to access the private network (LAN) from the public network/Internet.
Use NAT when your netwo rk cameras are located on an intranet (LAN) and you wish to make it available from the other (WAN) side of a NAT router. With NAT traversal properly configured, all HTTP traffic to an external HTTP port in the NAT router is forwarded to the network camera.
Notes:
- For NAT (port mapping) to work, this must be supported by the broadband router.
- The broadband router has many different names:
“NAT router,” “Network router,“ Internet Gateway,” “Broadband sharing device” or “Home firewall,” but the essential purpose of the device is the same.
67
NAT Settings
- Enable – Check this box to enable NAT traversal. Whe n enabled, the network camera
attempts to configure port mapping in a NAT router on your network, using UPnP. Note that UPnP must be enabled in the network camera (see System>Network>UPnP). * Automatic setting: When selected, the network camera automatically searches for NAT routers on your network. * Manual setting: Select this option to manually select a NAT router and enter the external port number for the router in the field provided.
Notes:
- If you attempt to manually enter a port that is already in use, an alert message will be displayed.
- When the port is selected automatically it is displayed in this field. To change this enter a new port
number and click Save.
When the settings are complete, click Save, or click Reset to revert to previously saved settings.

Zeroconfig Zeroconfig allows the network camera to create and assign the IP address for network cameras and connect to a network automatically.
Zero configuration networking (zeroconf) is a set of te chniques that automatically creates a usable Internet Protocol (IP) network without manual operator intervention or special configuration servers.
Zero configuration networking allows devices such as computers and printers to connect to a network automatically. Without zeroconf, a network administrator must set up services, such as Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and Domain Name System (DNS), or configure each computer's network settings manually, which may be difficult a nd time-consuming.
Zeroconf is built on three core technologies:
Assignment of numeric network add resses f or n etworked dev ices (link-local address auto configuration)
Automatic resolution and distribution of computer hostnames (multicast DNS)
Automatic location of network services, suc h as printing devices through DNS service discovery.
Click the checkbox to enable Zeroconf.
When the settings are complete, click Save, or click Reset to revert to previously saved settings.
69
Bonjour The network camera includes support for Bonjour. When enabled, the network camera is automatically detected by operating systems and clients t hat support this protocol.
Click the check box to enable Bonjour. Enter a name in the Friendly name field.
When the settings are complete, click Save, or click Reset to revert to previously saved settings.
Note: Also known as zero-configuration networking, Bonjour enables devices to automatically discover each other on a network, without having to enter I P addresses or configur e DNS servers. (Bonjour is a trademark of Apple Computer, Inc.)
