I. Introduction

• What is WebEye B101 ?

The WebEye B101 is a network dome camera server solution with an integrated Internet server, image compression device, flash memory, and many other features. No other hardware is necessary for use. The WebEye relay video source from a dome camera to network and provides real time images over networks and the Internet. Simply provide power and connect LAN cable and video cable to the WebEye. WebEye utilizes Wavelet image compression and Linux operating system. Wavelet and Linux enable WebEye to transfer high quality images faster and with a greater degree of reliability than standard JPEG systems.

Features and Benefits

•

Ease of Use – WebEye requires either Netscape Navigator 4.7 (or higher) or Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 (or higher) for use. Windows 2000 is recommended for best results. Connect WebEye to the Internet and it is ready for use.

Compatible with most Systems and Protocols – WebEye supports TCP/IP networking, SMTP, HTTP and other Internet-related protocols. In addition, the WebEye can be used in mixed operating system environments, such as Windows, UNIX, Macintosh and OS/2. WebEye also integrates easily into other Internet/Intranet applications and CGI scripts.

Simple Administration - WebEye can be configured and managed directly from its own web page. Moreover, as new upgrades become available, it is easy to upgrade all WebEye camera products remotely over the network.

Wavelet Image Format - Unlike many other products that need to fracture image files prior to broadcast, the WebEye delivers complete, highly compressed pictures in Wavelet format. Wavelet has image compression rates 30-300% higher than standard JPEG. By utilizing Wavelet, image file sizes are much smaller than conventional camera servers and Wavelet's image quality is superior to other camera servers as well. Wavelet can transmit up to 123 frames per second.

External Device Connection - External devices such as IR-sensors, switches and external video input can be connected to WebEye via the auxiliary Input/Output port.

User’s Programmable Space – WebEye contains 4.5MB of configurable Flash Memory for user-programmable and user-configurable space. Because WebEye also acts as a server, this space can be used to create a personal web page.

Embedded Linux Operating System – WebEye uses an embedded Linux operating system within its 32bit RISC CPU. Linux is based on UNIX and is one of the most stable operating systems available. There is very

little chance of the operating system crashing.

User’s Guide

Green LED : This LED indicates the status of networking. After power is supplied, it is on for the first 1 -2

seconds, and then it blinks once at every one second as long as the network is connected.

4) Descriptions on DIP Switches This is to designate video signal termination. If you want to monitor real time image through a CCTV monitor

as well as WebEye, you may connect a dome camera to ‘Video Input ’ connector and a CCTV monitor to ‘Video Output’ connector. In this case, you should decide which one is terminal of video signal. WebEye is not affected if a CCTV monitor is designated as terminal. If you connect a dome camera to ‘Video Input’ and monitor real time video only through a PC, place the first DIP switch (marked with No. 1) at upper position ‘ON’. If you monitor real time video through a CCTV monitor as well as a PC, connect a dome camera to ‘Video Input ’ and a monitor to ‘Video Output’. And place the first DIP switch (marked with No. 1) at lower position ‘OFF’. If the CCTV monitor has a DIP switch and it is configurable the termination, you may change the termination from the CCTV monitor to WebEye such as the DIP switch in WebEye ‘ON ’ and the DIP switch in a CCTV monitor ‘OFF’. However a CCTV monitor is generally set as termination of the video signal.

(3) Access Rights Administrator may give or forfeit users’ right of PTZ control and video control. With default setting, administrator has both right of PTZ control and video control and normal user doesn’t have any right.

3) Network Configuration

This page is to define network type and set network addresses of WebEye.

(1) DHCP Client Protocol

If administrator activates ‘DHCP Client Protocol’ menu, all the addresses are going to set automatically by WebEye detecting them from DHCP server of your ISP. The detected addresses are not seen on the screen.

(2) Select Network In terface

If WebEye is connected on xDSL line that needs PPPoE process, administrator should select ‘xDSL (PPPoE)’. However the xDSL line doesn ’t need PPPoE process, administrator should select ‘Ethernet’ though WebEye is connected on xDSL line.

(3) Etherne t Interface

Administrator may configure IP address, subnet mask, broadcast address, gateway address, and DNS addresses of WebEye. For broadcast address, administrator may set it automatically by clicking ‘Get From Netmask’ button after assigning IP address and subnet mask.

MTU Size: Depending on network type, administrator may set data packet size with this menu to utilize the network at most effectively .

DNS Server IP Address: This is used when you register your WebEye B101 on dynamic IP registration list of WRS (WebEye Registration Server). WRS has its domain name of ‘webeye.to’ and the domain name is registered on DNS servers on the world.

(4) xDSL Interface

If WebEye is connected on xDSL line and needs PPPoE process, administrator should select ‘xDSL (PPPoE)’ and configure ID and password for PPPoE. ID and password may be acquired from the ISP that installed the line. And WebEye may get IP address when it is connected on xDSL line.

User’s Guide

4) Dynamic IP registration service for ISDN and xDSL users

This page is to register WebEye on dynamic IP registration server.

If WebEye is installed on a network of dynamic IP address (floating IP address), administrator should register the WebEye to ‘dynamic IP registration server’ to give simple connectivity to com mon users.

To solve the problem WebGate run a server making a list of WebEyes that have dynamic IP addresses. On the server, WebEye registers its information such as name, location, and description, so that common users may detect a certain WebEye. Name, location and description are assigned at ‘System Configuration’ page. If administrator does not change them, the WebEye will register default information on the list, and it will be very difficult to point out and access a certain WebEye. The list is on an Internet homepage of WebEye, ‘www.webeye.to’.

(1) Auto IP Registration Function

Administrator may register one’s WebEye by enabling ‘Auto IP Registration Function’. Registration process is that WebEye detects IP addresses from DHCP server and informs the detected IP addresses to dynamic IP registration server. And the server updates already registered information with new one. Please keep in mind that user have to enable ‘DHCP Client Protocol’ at ‘Network Configuration’ page to have WebEye get dynamic IP addresses automatically, when WebEye is installed on a network of dynamic IP address.

(2) Registration Server Address

This is to configure a server address for registration. The registration server to be used for Dynamic IP registration should be installed proper S/W, developed by WebGate Inc. If you do not run a server for IP registration, keep the server’s name as default figure (webeye.to).

(3) Registration Interval

Dynamic IP address is commonly used on xDSL, ISDN or Cable Modem lines. To maintain continuous connectivity, user should reset the ‘Registration Interval’ shorter than the default value. Because an IP is to be changed from time to time, some user may not access by clicking on a WebEye if actual information on WebEye is changed from the registered IP information on the dynamic IP registration server.

(4) Add Public List

There are two registration systems. One is to register on a public list and another is on a private list. Please refer to Article 3)

Public List: This list is open to anyone who accesses WebEye Internet homepage

•

(www.webeye.to).

• Private List: This list is not seen to anyone. Even the owner of a WebEye can get the information on

one ’s WebEye only without viewing information on other’s WebEye.

(5) Access Token

Access token is a password and it is used when you register your own WebEye on a list ‘User’s WebEye ’ out of all WebEyes on WRS(WebEye Registration Server.)
