Perform the Auto Focus function for best image. However, if you have cascaded cameras, do
this one by one. Do not perform this function simultaneously on multiple cameras because the
motorized lens also consume considerable power, and may cause the last camera on the line to
hang.
使用自動對焦功能以達到最佳影像效果。 但若您將多台攝影機串接，請在各攝影機中逐一執行上

Exécutez la fonction Mise au point automatique pour optimiser l'image. Toutefois, si vous
avez des caméras montées en cascade, faites-le une par une. N'effectuez pas cette fonction
simultanément sur plusieurs caméras car l'objectif motorisé consomme également énormément
d'énergie et peut entraîner l'interruption de la dernière caméra sur la ligne.
Realiza la función de autoenfoque para obtener una mejor imagen. Por otro lado, si las cámaras
están en cascada, hágalo una a una. No realice esta función a la vez en múltiples cámaras
porque los objetivos motorizados también consumen energía y pueden provocar que la última
cámara de la línea se bloquee.
Führen Sie die Autofokus Funktion für das beste Bild aus. Wenn Sie allerdings Kameras in
Reihe haben, führen Sie dies einzeln nacheinander aus. Führen Sie diese Funktion nicht
gleichzeitig auf mehreren Kameras aus, da das motorisierte Objektiv viel Strom benötigt und die
letzte Kamera in der Reihe hängen könnte.
Realize a função de foco automático para obter a melhor imagem. No entanto, se você possui
câmeras em sequência, faça isso com uma a uma. Não realize essa função simultaneamente
em múltiplas câmeras, uma vez que as lentes motorizadas também consomem carga
considerável e podem fazer com que a última câmera na lente seja desconectada.
Esegui la funzione Auto Focus per ottenere l'immagine migliore. Tuttavia, se avete
telecamere in cascata, eseguire l'operazione una alla volta. Non eseguire questa funzione
contemporaneamente su più telecamere, poiché le lenti motorizzate consumano molta corrente
e l'ultima telecamera sulla linea potrebbe rimanere bloccata.
En iyi görüntü için Otomatik Odak işlevini gerçekleştirin. Ancak, kademeli kameralarınız
varsa bunu tek tek yapın. Motorlu mercek de önemli ölçüde güç tükettiğinden ve hattaki son
kameranın askıda kalmasına neden olabileceğinden, bu işlevi birden fazla kamerada aynı anda
gerçekleştirmeyin.
Aby uzyskać lepszy obraz, skorzystaj z funkcji Auto Focus (Automatycznej regulacji ostrości).
Jeżeli jednak kamery ustawione są kaskadowo, należy użyć tej funkcji kolejno dla każdej
kamery. Nie używaj funkcji równocześnie dla kilku kamer, ponieważ znaczne zużycie energii
przez napęd obiektywu może spowodować zawieszenie się ostatniej kamery w linii.
Выполните автофокусировку для получения наилучшего качества изображения. Однако,
если камеры подключены каскадно, эту операцию следует выполнять поочередно для
каждой камеры. Не следует выполнять эту операцию для нескольких камер одновременно,
так как моторизованные объективы потребляют значительную мощность, и это может
привести к зависанию последних камер в цепочке.
Pro dosažení nejlepšího obrazu použijte funkci Auto Focus. Pokud máte kaskádovité kamery,
proveďte to pro jednu po druhé postupně. Nepoužívejte tuto funkci současně na několika
kamerách, protože motorizované objektivy spotřebovávají značnou energii a to může způsobit
zaseknutí poslední kamery.
Utför autofokusfunktionen för bästa bildkvalitet. Om du har kaskaderade kameror ska du
göra detta ett i taget. Utför inte den här funktionen samtidigt på era kameror, eftersom den
motoriserade linsen även förbrukar mycket ström och detta kan göra att den sista kameran i
linjen hänger sig.
Gebruik de Auto Focus-functie voor optimaal beeld. Als u echter meerder verbonden camera's
heeft, dit één voor één doen. Deze functie niet gelijktijdig op meerdere camera's gebruiken
omdat de gemotoriseerde lens ook aanzienlijke stroom verbruikt, en storing kan veroorzaken bij
de laatste aangesloten camera.
Udfør autofokusering for det bedste billede. Hvis du imidlertid har kaskadekoblede kameraer,
gør det for et ad gangen. Udfør ikke denne funktion samtidigt for flere kameraer, fordi de
motoriserede linser trækker en betydelig strøm, hvorved de sidste kamera i kæden kan hænge.
Jalankan fungsi Fokus Otomatis untuk mendapatkan gambar terbaik Namun, jika Anda
telah menyalurkan kamera, lakukan hal ini satu per satu. Jangan jalankan fungsi ini secara
bersamaan pada beberapa kamera karena lensa bermotor juga mengonsumsi daya yang cukup
besar, dan dapat menyebabkan kamera terakhir di saluran menjadi macet.
قم بإجراء وظيفة التركيز التلقائي للحصول على أفضل صورة. ومع ذلك، إذا كانت لديك كاميرات متتالية، فافعل هذا واحدة بواحدة.
لا تقم بإجراء هذه الخاصية في نفس الوقت على كاميرات متعددة لأن العدسة الآلية أيضًا تستهلك قدرًا كبيرًا من الطاقة، وقد يؤدي
إلى توقف الكاميرا الأخيرة على الخط.

Congure the router, virtual server or rewall, so that the router can forward any data coming into a precongured port number to a network camera on the private network, and
allow data from the camera to be transmitted to the outside of the network over the same
path.
From Forward to
122.146.57.120:8000 192.168.2.10:80
122.146.57.120:8001 192.168.2.11:80
... ...
When properly congured, you can access a camera behind the router using the HTTP
request such as follows: http://122.146.57.120:8000
If you change the port numbers on the Network conguration page, please open the ports
accordingly on your router. For example, you can open a management session with your
router to congure access through the router to the camera within your local network.
Please consult your network administrator for router conguration if you have troubles with
the conguration.
For more information with network conguration options (such as that of streaming ports),
please refer to Conguration > Network Settings. VIVOTEK also provides the automatic
port forwarding feature as an NAT traversal function with the precondition that your router
must support the UPnP port forwarding feature.

Select to stream video or audio data or both. This is enabled only when the video mode is set to H.264.
H.264 Protocol Options
Depending on your network environment, there are four transmission modes of H.264 streaming:
UDP unicast: This protocol allows for more real-time audio and video streams. However, network
packets may be lost due to network burst trafc and images may be broken. Activate UDP connection
when occasions require time-sensitive responses and the video quality is less important. Note that each
unicast client connecting to the server takes up additional bandwidth and the Network Camera allows up
to ten simultaneous accesses.
UDP multicast: This protocol allows multicast-enabled routers to forward network packets to all clients
requesting streaming media. This helps to reduce the network transmission load of the Network Camera
while serving multiple clients at the same time. Note that to utilize this feature, the Network Camera must
be configured to enable multicast streaming at the same time. For more information, please refer to
RTSP Streaming on page 82.
TCP: This protocol guarantees the complete delivery of streaming data and thus provides better video
quality. The downside of this protocol is that its real-time effect is not as good as that of the UDP protocol.
HTTP: This protocol allows the same quality as TCP protocol without needing to open specic ports for
streaming under some network environments. Users inside a firewall can utilize this protocol to allow
streaming data through.

The Smart IR function is more benecial when the spot of intrusions or an object of your interest
is close to the lens and the IR lights. For example, if an intruder has a chance of getting near the
range of 3 meters, Smart IR can effectively reduce the over-exposure. For a surveillance area at
a greater distance, e.g., 5 meters, the Smart IR function may not bring as signicant benets as in
close range.

IR cut lter
With a removable IR-cut lter, this Network Camera can automatically remove the lter to let IR
light enter the light sensor during low light conditions.
■ Auto mode
The Network Camera automatically removes the lter by judging the level of ambient light.
■ Day mode
In day mode, the Network Camera switches on the IR cut lter at all times to block infrared light
from reaching the sensor so that the colors will not be distorted.
■ Night mode
In night mode, the Network Camera switches off the IR cut lter at all times for the sensor to
accept infrared light, thus helping to improve low light sensitivity.
■ Synchronize with digital input
The Network Camera automatically removes the IR cut lter when a Digital Input is triggerred.
For example, the digital input can come from a housing that is equipped with IR illumination and
control circuits such as VIVOTEK’s AM-214.
Exclude x
Tips:
If there is an object in close proximity, the IR lights
reflected back from it can mislead the Smart IR’s
calculation of light level. To solve this problem, you
can place an “Exposure Exclude” window on an
unavoidable object in the Exposure setting window.
See page 59 for how to do it.
You can also configure the “Exposure Exclude”
window in a night mode “Prole” setting so that your
day time setting is not affected.

Exposure control:
■
Exposure level: You can manually set the Exposure level, which ranges from -2.0 to +2.0 (dark
to bright). You can click and drag the semi-circular pointers on the Exposure time and Gain
control slide bars to specify a range of shutter time and Gain control values within which the
camera can automatically tune to an optimal imaging result. You may prefer a shorter shutter
time to better capture moving objects, while a faster shutter reduces light and needs to be
compensated by electrical brightness gains.
■
Exposure mode:
You can click and drag the semi-circular pointers on the Exposure time and Gain control slide
bars to specify a range of shutter time and Gain control values within which the camera can
automaticallly tune to an optimal imaging result. You can also configure the iris size to control
the amount of light. For example, you may prefer a shorter shutter time to better capture moving
objects, while a faster shutter reduces light and needs to be compensated by electrical brightness
gains.
The inclusive window refers to the “weighed window“; the exclusive window refers to “ignored
window“. It adopts the weighed averages method to calculate the value. The inclusive windows
have a higher priority. You can overlap these windows, and, if you place an exclusive window
within a larger inclusive window, the exclusive part of the overlapped windows will be deducted
from the inclusive window. An exposure value will then be calculated out of the remaining of the
inclusive window.
■ BLC (Back Light Compensation): This option will automatically add a “weighted region“ in the

Focus (IB8382-ET, IB8382-RT IB836B-HT/EHT, IB836B-HRT)
Focus here refers to the Remote Focus, applicable to Network Cameras that are equipped
with a stepping motor lens. The automated focus adjustment function eliminates the needs
to physically adjust camera focus. In an outdoor deployment consisting of a large number
of cameras, the auto focus function can be very helpful when these cameras become out
of focus after days or weeks of operation. And that can easily result from the effects of
natural forces, e.g., shrink and expand due to a wide range of operating temperatures and
the vibration caused by wind.
Below is the procedure to perform the automated Focus function:
1. Select from the bottom of the screen whether you want to perform focus adjustment on
the Full view or within a Custom focus window. You can create a custom window and
click and drag the window to a desired position on screen.
2. It is recommended to Reset to the default back focus position of the sensor board.
3. You can use the Open iris checkbox (default) to increase the iris size for a better focus
adjustment result.
4. Click to select the Fully-opened iris or the Full-range scan buttons. When a full-range
scan is selected, a full-range scan through the camera's entire focal length can take
about 30 to 80 seconds. If not, the auto focus scan will only go through the length where
optimal focus may occur, and that takes about 15 to 20 seconds. In theory, best results
of the auto scan can be acquired when the camera's iris is fully open.

The methodology of using the Resize Buttons at the upper left corner of the streaming
window is the same as that on the home page.
Focus window:
By default, the optimal focus is found on a full view window. You may designate a custom window
within your current eld of view to acquire the best focus out of it. However, you can not place a
focus window on a distant background, e.g., a hall way that stretches away for 3 meters or farther.
Doing so you will not benet from the Focus window function.
■
Full view: The focus tuning takes place by referring to the full view.
■
Custom: You can create a focus window and drag it to a place of interest in your view window.
Note that it is recommended to use this function only when you have a solid object in your view
window that is showing a consistent color or texture. This function will not take effect if you set
the focus window on a distant background.
5. Wait for the scan to complete. After a short while, the clearest image obtained should be
displayed and the optimal focus range achieved. Use the arrow marks on the sides to
ne-tune the focus if you are not satised with the results.
You may still need to use the ar-
row marks to ne-tune the focus depending on the live image on your screen. “>” means moving
from wide to tele end; and “<” tele to wide.
You can try the Snapshot focus function (in Applications > Package management)
when applied in the above mentioned scenario.

This Network Camera offers real-time H.264 and MJPEG compression standards (Dual Codec) for
real-time viewing. If the H.264 mode is selected, the video is streamed via RTSP protocol. There
are several parameters through which you can adjust the video performance:
■ Frame size
You can set up different video resolutions for different viewing devices. For example, set a
smaller frame size and lower bit rate for remote viewing on mobile phones and a larger video
size and a higher bit rate for live viewing on web browsers, or recording the stream to an NVR.
Note that a larger frame size takes up more bandwidth.
■ Maximum frame rate
This limits the maximum refresh frame rate per second. Set the frame rate higher for smoother
video quality and for recognizing moving objects in the eld of view.
If the power line frequency is set to 50Hz (at the 5MP resolution), the frame rates are selectable
at 1fps, 2fps, 3fps, 5fps, 8fps, 10fps, 12fps, and 15fps. If the power line frequency is set to 60Hz,
the frame rates are selectable at 1fps, 2fps, 3fps, 5fps, 8fps, 10fps, 12fps, and 15fps. You can
also select Customize and manually enter a value.

The frame rate will decrease if you select a higher resolution.
■ Intra frame period
Determine how often for firmware to plant an I frame. The shorter the duration, the
more likely you will get better video quality, but at the cost of higher network bandwidth
consumption. Select the intra frame period from the following durations: 1/4 second, 1/2
second, 1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds, and 4 seconds.

Video quality
Constant bit rate:
• Constant bit rate: A complex scene generally produces a larger file size, meaning
that higher bandwidth will be needed for data transmission. The bandwidth
utilization is congurable to match a selected level, resulting in mutable video quality
performance. The bit rates are selectable at the following rates: 20Kbps, 30Kbps,
40Kbps, 50Kbps, 64Kbps, 128Kbps, 256Kbps, 512Kbps, 768Kbps, 1Mbps, 2Mbps,

also select Customize and manually enter a value up to 40Mbps.
- Target bit rate: select a bit rate from the pull-down menu. The bit rate ranges from
20kbps to a maximum of 16Mbps. The bit rate then becomes the Average or Upper
bound bit rate number. The Network Camera will strive to deliver video streams
around or within the bit rate limitation you impose.
- Policy: If Frame Rate Priority is selected, the Network Camera will try to maintain
the frame rate per second performance, while the image quality will be compromised.
If Image quality priority is selected, the Network Camera may drop some video
frames in order to maintain image quality.
• Fixed quality: On the other hand, if Fixed quality is selected, all frames are
transmitted with the same quality; bandwidth utilization is therefore unpredictable.
The video quality can be adjusted to the following settings: Medium, Standard, Good,
Detailed, and Excellent. You can also select Customize and manually enter a value.
Maximum bit rate: With the guaranteed image quality, you might still want to place
a bit rate limitation to control the size of video streams for bandwidth and storage
concerns. The congurable bit rate starts from 1Mbps to 40Mbps.
You may also manually enter a bit rate number by selecting the Customized option.

You can manually specify the video quality for the foreground and the
background areas.
Select an operation mode if Smart stream is preferred.
- Auto tracking: The Auto mode configures the whole screen into the
background area. The video quality of part of the screen returns to
normal when one or more objects move in that area. The remainder of
the screen where there are no moving objects (no pixel changes) will still
be transmitted in low-quality format.
- Manual: The Manual mode allows you to configure 3 ROI windows (the
Foreground areas) on the screen. Areas not included in any ROI
windows will be considered as the Background areas. The details in the
ROI areas will always be transmitted in a higher-quality video format.
As illustrated below, the upper screen may contain little details of your
interest, while the sidewalk on the lower screen is included in an ROI
window.

Foreground: higher-quality
Background: lower-quality
As the result, the lower screen is constantly displayed in high details,
while the upper half is transmitted using a lower-quality format. Although
the upper half is transmitted using a lower quality format, you still have an
awareness of what is happening on the whole screen.
- Hybrid: The major difference between the “Manual” mode and the “Hybrid”
mode is that:
In the “Hybrid“ mode, any objects entering the background area
will restore the video quality of the moving objects and the area
around them. The video quality of the associated background area is
immediately restored to normal to cover the moving objects.
In the “Manual” mode, the background area is always transmitted using
a low-quality format regardless of the activities inside.
You should also select the Maximum bit rate from the pull-down menu as the
threshold to contain the bandwidth consumption for both the high- and lowquality video sections in a smart stream.

If JPEG mode is selected, the Network Camera sends consecutive JPEG images to the client,
producing a moving effect similar to a lmstrip. Every single JPEG image transmitted guarantees
the same image quality, which in turn comes at the expense of variable bandwidth usage. Because
the media contents are a combination of JPEG images, no audio data is transmitted to the client.
There are three parameters provided in MJPEG mode to control the video performance:
■ Frame size
You can set up different video resolution for different viewing devices. For example, set a smaller
frame size and lower bit rate for remote viewing on mobile phones and a larger video size and
a higher bit rate for live viewing on web browsers. Note that a larger frame size takes up more
bandwidth.
■ Maximum frame rate
This limits the maximum refresh frame rate per second. Set the frame rate higher for smoother
video quality.
If the power line frequency is set to 50Hz (at the 5MP resolution), the frame rates are selectable
at 1fps, 2fps, 3fps, 5fps, 8fps, 10fps, and 15fps. If the power line frequency is set to 60Hz, the
frame rates are selectable at 1fps, 2fps, 3fps, 5fps, 8fps, 10fps, and 15fps. You can also select
Customize and manually enter a value. The frame rate will decrease if you select a higher
resolution.
■ Video quality
Refer to the previous page setting an average or upper bound threshold for controlling the
bandwidth consumed for transmitting motion jpegs. The conguration method is identical to that
for H.264.
For Constant Bit Rate and other settings, refer to the previous page for details.
►
Video quality and xed quality refers to the compression rate, so a lower value will produce higher
quality.
►
Converting high-quality video may signicantly increase the CPU loading, and you may encounter
streaming disconnection or video loss while capturing a complicated scene. In the event of
occurance, we suggest you customize a lower video resolution or reduce the frame rate to obtain
smooth video.

Network > QoS (Quality of Service)
Quality of Service refers to a resource reservation control mechanism, which guarantees a certain
quality to different services on the network. Quality of service guarantees are important if the
network capacity is insufcient, especially for real-time streaming multimedia applications. Quality
can be dened as, for instance, a maintained level of bit rate, low latency, no packet dropping, etc.
The following are the main benets of a QoS-aware network:
■
The ability to prioritize trafc and guarantee a certain level of performance to the data ow.
■
The ability to control the amount of bandwidth each application may use, and thus provide higher
reliability and stability on the network.
Requirements for QoS
To utilize QoS in a network environment, the following requirements must be met:
■
All network switches and routers in the network must include support for QoS.
■
The network video devices used in the network must be QoS-enabled.
QoS models
CoS (the VLAN 802.1p model)
IEEE802.1p denes a QoS model at OSI Layer 2 (Data Link Layer), which is called CoS, Class of
Service. It adds a 3-bit value to the VLAN MAC header, which indicates the frame priority level from
0 (lowest) to 7 (highest). The priority is set up on the network switches, which then use different
queuing disciplines to forward the packets.
Below is the setting column for CoS. Enter the VLAN ID of your switch (0~4095) and choose the
priority for each application (0~7).
If you assign Video the highest level, the switch will handle video packets rst.
► A VLAN Switch (802.1p) is required. Web browsing may fail if the CoS setting is incorrect.
►The Class of Service technologies do not guarantee a level of service in terms of bandwidth
and delivery time; they offer a "best-effort." Users can think of CoS as "coarsely-grained" trafc
control and QoS as "nely-grained" trafc control.
► Although CoS is simple to manage, it lacks scalability and does not offer end-to-end guarantees
since it is based on L2 protocol.
NOTE:
Page 93
VIVOTEK
User's Manual - 89
QoS/DSCP (the DiffServ model)
DSCP-ECN denes QoS at Layer 3 (Network Layer). The Differentiated Services (DiffServ) model
is based on packet marking and router queuing disciplines. The marking is done by adding a eld
to the IP header, called the DSCP (Differentiated Services Codepoint). This is a 6-bit field that
provides 64 different class IDs. It gives an indication of how a given packet is to be forwarded,
known as the Per Hop Behavior (PHB). The PHB describes a particular service level in terms of
bandwidth, queueing theory, and dropping (discarding the packet) decisions. Routers at each
network node classify packets according to their DSCP value and give them a particular forwarding
treatment; for example, how much bandwidth to reserve for it.
Below are the setting options of DSCP (DiffServ Codepoint). Specify the DSCP value for each
application (0~63).

(Simple Network Management Protocol)
This section explains how to use the SNMP on the network camera. The Simple Network
Management Protocol is an application layer protocol that facilitates the exchange of
management information between network devices. It helps network administrators to
remotely manage network devices and nd, solve network problems with ease.
■ The SNMP consists of the following three key components:
1. Manager: Network-management station (NMS), a server which executes applications that
monitor and control managed devices.
2. Agent: A network-management software module on a managed device which transfers the status
of managed devices to the NMS.
3. Managed device: A network node on a managed network. For example: routers, switches,
bridges, hubs, computer hosts, printers, IP telephones, network cameras, web server, and
database.

5. Look for a trusted certicate authority, such as Symantec’s VeriSign Authentication Services, that
issues digital certicates. Sign in and purchase the SSL certication service. Copy the certicate
request from your request prompt and paste it in the CA’s signing request window. Proceed with
the rest of the process as CA’s instructions on their webpage.
