Introduction to the BWC Camera System
The BWC represents the forefront of IP camera technology. The camera system couples a 1080p30
high sensitivity system on chip imager with a highly integrated ONVIF compliant H.264 IP encoder.
These combine to produce the smallest, lowest power HD IP camera system available.
From this core technology, Visual Engineering has created a body worn product to satisfy the needs
of tactical users. Encased in CNC machined aluminium alloy the BWC is designed to thrive in harsh
operational environments.
The BWC is available with either a 90º or 60º eld of view. It can also be congured to have white or
covert 940nm IR illumination.
Cable egress is performed with an IP67 cable gland with strain relief. Cable termination is customer
specied for diering transmission equipment. As standard the cable termination is an 8 way
binder, which can be connected to the interface cables included in the kit.
It also features a recording option, which employs secure micro SD card storage. Access to the
stored video les is via an ethernet connection.

Connecting the Camera
The BWC is an IP streaming camera. Users therefore need access to a PC or similar networked
enabled device to view the camera’s video.
Viewing the video and camera control can be accessed through the web browser interface, users
will therefore need either Firefox, Internet Explorer or Chrome installed on their PC.
To view the streaming video from the camera users should have a video player installed onto their
PC.
Visual Engineering strongly recommends that users have VLC installed. This is essential if Internet
Explorer is used as the browser.
VLC is a free media player and can be downloaded from:
http://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.en_GB.html
It is advised that users download and enable the latest version of VLC Media Player before
attempting to use the BWC.
Cable Connections
The cable attached to the BWC can be interfaced to any third party connection, following the pinout
information detailed in the connector interface section at the end of this user guide.
Alternatively the BWC can be connected into the 8 way Binder RJ45 cable, which in turn is connected
to the power injector cable. The power injector cable should now be connected to the PC’s network
socket and the DC power supply. The DC adaptor should be connected to the mains.
The DC adaptor supplies the camera with 12V DC at 148mA. Alternatively, the camera can be
operated with DC supplies from 6V to 18V if required.

Default IP Address
BWC cameras are by default set with a xed IP address of 192.168.1.195
If the camera is not responding on this address it is possible that the IP address has been changed.
If the new IP address is unknown, the user can use the VE Camera Viewer software application to
locate the IP address. This method is explained in the The VE Camera Viewer section of this user
guide.
PC Connection
Now that the camera is powered and has an IP connection to a PC, users can web browse to the
camera to view the video and control its functions.
Camera video can be viewed on the camera’s web browser. The web browser also allows control of
camera parameters such as encoder resolution, encoder bit-rate, and network settings.
All parameters are non-volatile, meaning they will be remembered after re-powering the camera.
It should be noted that Internet Explorer users should ensure VLC is loaded onto their machine,
without this the video viewing pages of the web browser will not work.
Users can web browse the BWC using any of the standard web browsers; Firefox, Internet Explorer
or Chrome - note that Chrome may require some additional settings to view video.
Simply type the camera’s IP address into the browsers address bar, using the camera IP address
192.168.1.195.

Video Menu
The Video Page is where all the
camera’s IP encoder parameters
are controlled.
The encoder supports two
encoding formats, H.264 and
MJPEG. The choice of the format
is initiated by the user when the
stream is enabled.
For example, to initiate a H.264
stream from a camera with an IP
address of 192.168.1.195 the URL
is:
rtsp://192.168.1.195/h264
For example, to initiate an MJPEG
stream from a camera with an IP
address of 192.168.1.195 the URL
is:
rtsp://192.168.1.195/jpeg
The Video page contains parameters for each encoder type.
The Camera has two fundamental modes of operation.
• Constant Bitrate. This is the normal mode of operation, the camera will output a constant bitrate for its compressed video stream.
• Constant Quality. In this mode the bit-rate is varied in a eort to maintain a constant quality.
The target quality is set using an arbitrary number between 1 and 50, the lower the number the
higher the quality. This is set in the quality eld.
Other encoder parameters are:
H.264 resolution
The maximum resolution is 1920x1080, but users can select lower resolutions and may wish to do
so if there is restricted bandwidth available for the camera’s connection.
H.264 FPS (frames Per Second)
The maximum frame rate is 30 fps, but users may choose to select lower frame rates, thereby
reducing the bandwidth required.
