Note: If the HTTP port number is cha nged to a differentvalue than default (80), make
sure the new HTTP port number goes together with the VITEK camerasIP address. For example, when a VITEK cameras IP address is 192.168.1.100and the HTTP portis 8080, you will have to ente r http://192.168.1.100:8080 to connec t to t he camera.
43
ENVI Series: VTC-IR40-N

13.5. Bandwidth Control Co nf igur ation

Bandwidth control is for limiting maximum network traffic. If it is enabled with Bandwidth limits, maximum data size transferred from VITEKcameras won’t exceed bandwidth limits set by users. If transferred data is exceeded, part of the data will be randomly lost.
If multiple users try to access a VITEKcamera when bandwidth control is enabled, users connected to the VITEKcamera will share network bandwidth limit.
Note: This bandwidth control feature works well in M-JPEG video transmission. But, for
H.264, dropping data packets may cause low quality of video, so it is recommended to utilize CBR and frame rate control instead of bandwidth control for H.264 video.Refer to
Section14.2
Camera & Motion
on page 52
for more
info on CBR and Frame rate.
Note: Network Bandwidth control is m anaged by theVITEKcamera and it drops any data
packets if required, thus you may experience slow connection when this feature is enabled.

13.6. View Network Status

This menu shows ne twork status of VITEKcameras.
44

46
ENVI Series: VTC-IR40-N
.

13.9. Port Forwarding & UPnP

UPnP(Universal Plug and Play)is a kind of network protocol to help users to find and configure network products in the same local network area. Port forwarding is to assign a certain network port to a network product so users can access it from outside of the Local Area Network. Generally, port forwarding can be configured from the network router.
UPnP port forwarding is made up with finding an availa b le network port, assigning it to a VITEKcamera and reporting overall network configuratio n of a VITEKcamera to IP-CCTV DNS server. Users have to register products into IPCCTVDNS server and IP-CCTV DNS service should be enabled.
There are 3 options in UPnP Port Forwarding.
Manual: User Assigned Portissued when users can access network router(hub) and manually assign available network ports to VITEKcameras. In this case, users have to type already­assigned network ports under User Assigned port.
UPnP: User Assigned Port is used when users want VITEKcameras to configure port forwarding of network hub with user-assi gned network port. If it fails, try to change user­assigned port
UPnP: Auto Selected Portis used to let VITEKcameras deal with all network configurations automatically.
Please note that the network router needs to support UPnP Port Forwarding. There is a limit forthe maximum number of UPnP devices. If it is properly configured, results will be displayed under UPnP status.

13.10. RTP/RTSP Setup Factory default is Enable to be used with other manufactures VMS software’s

RTSP (Real-Time Streaming Protocol) is a protocol to transfer video and audio streams over the network. Any application supporting Standard RTSP can be used for VITEKcameras. Quick Time Player or VLC program can be used withthis; it may not be supported in the environment within a firewall. There are two types of usage; one for Unicast address condition and the other for Multicast address condition.
For Unicast Address:
Use“rtsp://network video server ip address/cam0_0”. If there are multiple channels, use cam0_x, x (0~3) with each number applied. If there are multiple modules, use camx_0 x (0 ~ 3) with each module number applied.
For Multicast Address:
Use “rtsp://network video server ip address/mcam0_0”. If there aremultiple channels, use mcam0_x, x (0~3) with each channel number applied. If there are multiple modules, use mcamx_0 x (0 ~ 3) with each module number applied.
48
ENVI Series: VTC-IR40-N
In normal case, use default port number 554 to connect to RTSP service.

Click Camera & Motion on Device Con fi g ur a ti on menu. The configuration menu will be displayed, and it may be different between VITEKcameras.
M-JPEG: This format requires much higher network bandwidth than H.264 compression. But because of its higher quality of still image, it is ade q uate for detailed reviewing of stored video.
H.264: In this format, each frame data is related to other nearby frames. For this reason, it provides much higher compression ratio than M-JPEG and is adequate for video transfer. However, if network conditions are limited dropped frames in video data is possible, the video quality can be relatively low. With VITEKCameras, you can set the number of P-frames in the video which is independent still images between I-frames.
Note: For Dual Stream products, most of the parameters are dependent on primary
stream value.

the lens only and IR CUT FILTER switches fol lowing the DAY/NIGHT modes.
In COLOR, camera disables DAY/NIGHT feature and works as a regular color camera and IR CUT FILTERis inserted to cut out the infrared spectrum from the light.
In B/W, camera disables DAY/NIGHT feat u re and works as a regular B/W camera and IR CUT FILTER is removed to pass the infrared spectrum from the light.
In EXT, camera follows the decision for DAY or NIGHT by the light sensor built into the camera.
Note: A camera with IR Led’s must be set to EXT.
IR SMART Compensates the amount of IR light on an image, reflecting back to the lens.

NR(Noise Reduction)
2D&3DNR are very sophisticated and powerful noise reduction technologies at low light.
2DNR
The process of removing image noise from a video signal by applying a digital
comb filter
3DNR A 3D filter reduces the noise caused by movement resulting in less blur.
Too strong 3DNR reduction results in the tail effect of a comet or motion blur forma fast moving target in low light.
The process of removing image noise from a video signal by applying a digital comb filter
69
ENVI Series: VTC-IR40-N
2DNR. ON reduces the noise that can be found in lo w light images
3DNR ON Reduces the no ise caused by movement. Start / End of noise reduction with respect to light level can be set to required levels
START THRES sets the point from which 3DNR levels starts when the illumination level dims. Higher setting starts3DNRat higher light level.
END THRES sets the point from which 3DNR stops when the illumination level is higher.
DEPTH sets the strength of noise reduction for 2D&3D. A higher setting stands for stronger reduction, too high of a setting will result in loss of sharpness in 2DNR and ghosting effect in 3DNR.
70
ENVI Series: VTC-IR40-N
SMART NR continuously monitors motion on the screen.When no motion is detected, 3DNR is automatically activated for the maximum reduction of noise at low light. 3DNR becomes immediately deactivated upon motion. This will save HDD space

PIXEL COMPENSATION Sometimes image sensors have defective pixels, this can be compensated in
two different ways LIVE DPC, compensates the defective pixels in real time and STATIC
DPC, detects the defective pixels with lens closed and saves the data for compensation
LIVE DPC compensates the defective pixels in real time where pixelamplitude exceeds the thresho l d.
AUTO - Enables LIVE DPC and dynamically compensates the defective pixels whose amplitude exceeds the threshold calculated according to AGC. At low light, more defective pixels are compensated because the thresh old becomes lower due to high AGC.
76
ENVI Series: VTC-IR40-N
ON - Enables LIVE DPC and compensates the defective pixels whose magnitude exceeds the thresho l d by set level.
OFF - Disables LIVE DPC.
Note: High setting of LEVEL in LIVE DPC reduces the sharpness
STATIC DPC Detects the defective pixels with lens closed and saves the data for compensation ON -Enables the compensation for the detected defective pixels.
OFF - Will not apply the compensation.
DO STATIC Camera closes the lens automatically and detects the defective pixels.
Note: Lens cap is highly recommended because the iris of some lens do not close perfectly.
After covering the lens click ENTE R then click ENTER on Execute screen

STATIC THR
For white dots (noise) caused by a defecti ve pixel exceeding the levels will be
compensated. The lower the setting the more pixels will be compensated up to 1024 staring from top to bottom.
PIXEL BOOST
It is easier to detect defective pixels with PIXEL BOOST, but the higher the level the more noise might be detected by mistake and give a false reading.
