The configuration of the device is carried out with a PC/web browser via the local area network (LAN). Alternatively, the PC can be directly connected to the device via an Ethernet crossover cable. 7.1 System requirements To configure the device with live video display, the PC must meet the following minimum system requirements: Computer IBM*)-PC compatible Processor (CPU) 1.3 GHz Random access memory (RAM) 256 MB Operating system Microsoft*) Windows*) 2000 Microsoft Windows XP Windows Vista*) each with latest service pack Web browser Microsoft Internet Explorer*), latest version Graphics card DirectX*) 9.0 compatible Ethernet 100 Mbit/s Software Adobe*) Flash*) Player, latest version Dallmeier control for ActiveX*), latest version Note that • a more powerful PC is required if several devices are configured with live video display simultaneously. • a DirectX compatible graphics card and the Dallmeier control for ActiveX are not requi­ red for the configuration without live video display. • the Dallmeier control for ActiveX can be downloaded from the Dallmeier Partner Fo­ rum. • the Dallmeier control for ActiveX can be automatically downloaded via Internet after the connection to the device (only with Microsoft Internet Explorer and if it is not alrea­ dy installed). • the configuration without live video display may be possible with any operating system and web browser. However, the Adobe Flash Player is always required for the confi­ guration. 7.2 IP address The factory default IP address of the device is 192.168.2.28. To find out the current IP address of the device, proceed as follows: ¾ Ensure that the device is disconnected from the power supply.

¾ Switch on the monitor. ¾ Connect the device to the power supply. ¾ When the device starts, wait for approximately one minute. The current IP address of the device is displayed for approximately 30 seconds on the monitor. 7.3 Connection ¾ Ensure that the PC/web browser can establish a connection to the device via Ethernet. ¾ Start the web browser. ¾ Enter the IP address of the device into the address bar of the web browser. ¾ Confirm the input. The connection to the device is established. The graphical user interface (GUI) of the live mode is displayed. A B D C E F Fig. 7-1 Live mode with adjustable video resolution A Hide/show title bar B Switch between live and configuration mode C Live video D Adjust video resolution E IP address of device F Log out of configuration mode

¾ Hide the title bar (A) if required. ¾ Activate the Networks with routers checkbox if required. ¾ Adjust the live video resolution (D) if required. This resolution setting only affects the live video display in the web browser and is not re- lated to the encoder settings. Network with routers If the network connection to the device is established via a router/gateway with NAT (Net­ work Address Translation) function, the live video may not be shown in certain circumstan­ ces. In this case, two solutions are available: The router/gateway has to be configured for a correct address translation of data packets sent by the User Datagram Protocol (UDP). UDP is by default used by the streaming func­ tion of the device. An easier solution is to activate the Networks with routers (NAT) checkbox. In this case, the device switches the protocol of the streaming function to the Transmission Control Pro­ tocol (TCP). To receive the data packets, the port 30000 for the DaVid Protocol1 and port 80 for the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) must be open. Note that at data transmission over TCP • normally no packet loss (lack of images) occurs. • short-term peaks in network traffic may occur. • low delays may occur. The “Networks with routers (NAT)” function does not affect the “Video streaming” function (see section “Video streaming” on page 41). 7.4 Login The graphical user interface of the configuration mode is displayed after the successful identification as authorised user.

work without requesting the data actively with a RTSP (Real Time Streaming Protocol) or DaVid Protocol capable client (e.g. Dallmeier recorder or PView). Note that the format of the RTP payload to be transported must correspond with the encod­ ing method. For information about encoder settings see section “Encoder settings” on page 46. ¾ Open the Video streaming dialogue via Network > Video streaming …. Fig. 9-17 ¾ Note the explanations below. ¾ Select Encoder 1 or Encoder 2 from the drop-down list Input. ¾ Select the transfer protocol, format and method from the drop-down list Mode. ¾ Depending on the selected transfer method, enter the Multicast IP address or the De­ stination IP address. ¾ Enter the port number of the service which should receive the data packets into the Port (1024 … 65535) field. ¾ Enter the TTL value of IP packets into the TTL (0 …255) field. ¾ Confirm with OK. 9.3.1 Transfer protocol and format The transfer protocol defines the communication rules for the exchange of the audio and video data in the network. The IP packets are transferred via UDP (User Datagram Protocol). Note that • UDP provides data transmission with a relatively low delay. • packet loss (lack of images) may occur during transmission. The transfer format defines the RTP payload to be transported.

The data must be encoded in MPEG2 format. RTP/MPV The video data is packetized for a MPEG-2 Video Stream by the Real-Time Transport Protocol (RTP). Audio data is not transferred. The data must be encoded in MPEG2 format. The packaging is based on the following standards: RFC3550 - RTP: A Transport Protocol for Real-Time Applications RFC3551 - RTP Profile for Audio and Video Conferences with Minimal Control RFC2250 - RTP Payload Format for MPEG1/MPEG2 Video RTP/MP4V-ES (RFC 3016) The video data is packetized for a MPEG-4 Video Elementary Stream by the Real-Time Transport Protocol (RTP). Audio data is not transferred. The data must be encoded in MPEG4 format. The packaging is based on the following standards: RFC3550 - RTP: A Transport Protocol for Real-Time Applications RFC3551 - RTP Profile for Audio and Video Conferences with Minimal Control RFC3016 - RTP Payload Format for MPEG-4 Audio/Visual Streams RTP/MJPEG The video data is packetized for a MJPEG Video Stream by the Real-Time Transport Pro­ tocol (RTP). Audio data is not transferred. The data must be encoded in MJPEG format. The packaging is based on the following standards: RFC3550 - RTP: A Transport Protocol for Real-Time Applications RFC3551 - RTP Profile for Audio and Video Conferences with Minimal Control RFC2435 - RTP Payload Format for JPEG-compressed Video 9.3.2 Transfer method The transfer method defines the distribution of audio and video data in the network. Multicast The data packets are transferred via point-to-multipoint connection to a group of receivers (clients) including the specified IP multicast address and port number. The packets have to be transferred only once, the distribution to the members of the group is done for instance by specially configured routers.

address and the appropriate application service is available with the specified port number. IP multicast uses the address range from 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255 (Class D). Note that certain IP multicast address ranges are reserved for special purposes. Unicast The data packets are transferred via point-to-point connection to exact one receiver (client) in the network including the specified destination IP address and port number. The receiver only receives the data packets if the appropriate application service is availa­ ble with the specified port number. 9.3.3 TTL The TTL value (Time To Live) defines the lifetime of an IP packet. Every router an IP packet passes through reduces the time to live value by one (1). If the value is zero (0), the IP packet is discarded. While preventing IP packets from endlessly circulating in the network due to routing errors, this method stops IP packets from breaking through the limits of the LAN and being sent to the WAN (TTL = 1). According to requirements a TTL value from 1 – 255 can be entered. When entering 0 (zero), the default values are used (TTL = 1 for multicast, TTL = 64 for unicast). 9.4 IP-Finder The access to the device with the IP-Finder can be restricted. ¾ Open the Network settings dialogue via Network > Basic settings …. Fig. 9-18 ¾ Deactivate the Allow IP-Finder network configuration checkbox to protect the net­ work settings of the device from being configurable via the IP-Finder. ¾ Confirm with OK.

Fig. 10-1 Note that this dialogue may be locked by external devices/applications. ¾ Select a Standard. ¾ Confirm with OK. 10.2 Video settings The Video settings dialogue provides the user-defined image processing adjustment of the incoming video signal. These settings have a direct effect on the recording, not just on the image display on the evaluation station’s monitor. ¾ Open the Video settings dialogue via Video > Video settings .... The Video settings dialogue is displayed. Fig. 10-2

¾ Adjust all necessary settings. ¾ Confirm with OK. ¾ Check the image in the live video frame in the bottom left of the configuration user inter­ face (if active). ¾ If necessary, readjust the settings and confirm with OK again. ¾ Finally close the dialogue with Cancel. You can restore the factory sensor settings at any time by clicking “Default”. 3dVNC Noise filter The digital 3dVNC Noise filter provides the reduction of image noise. In contrast to analogue filters, the image noise is not reduced by smoothing the image. The temporal 3D filter compares individual pixels in sequential images and identifies typical fluctuations in the colour and brightness values. Only when the fluctuation exceeds a set limit, the pixel will be filtered out. Note that setting the filter for fast-moving objects may result in motion blur. This drawback is due to technical reasons and cannot be completely avoided. 10.3 Encoder settings The audio and video encoding is configured in the Encoder settings dialogue. This dialogue may be locked by external devices/applications. 10.3.1 Encoder 1 ¾ Open the Encoder settings dialogue via Video > Encoder settings .... The Encoder 1 tab is displayed. Fig. 10-3 ¾ Note the explanations below. ¾ Select the encoding standard from the drop-down list Encoder mode. ¾ Select the frame rate from the drop-down list Frames/Second. ¾ Select the Resolution (width × height in pixels). ¾ Select the Deinterlacing mode. ¾ Select the Bitrate.

¾ Select the GOP-size (only with MPEG). ¾ If required, activate the B-Frames checkbox (only possible at a GOP-size > 6). Frames/Second The frame rate (value in fps) defines the number of consecutive frames produced per se­ cond. The higher the frame rate is, the smoother the video playback. Note that audio encoding is only available at a frame rate of 25 fps (PAL) or 30 fps (NTSC). Bitrate The bit rate refers to the number of bits per second used to encode the video. The more bits are used to represent the video data per second, the higher the quality is. Low bit rate  High image compression  Small data volume  Poor image quality High bit rate  Low image compression  Large data volume  High image quality The most requirements in surveillance systems are met with a bit rate between 4 and 6 Mbps. Bitrate mode The bit rate mode allows configuring a constant or a variable bit rate for the video encoding. The “variable” mode changes the bit rate in accordance with the activity (changes) in the image. The allowed bit rate variations can be limited by the according percentage value. Example: With a set bit rate of 4 Mbps and a bit rate mode of “variable 50 %”, the bit rate can vary from 6 to 2 Mbps. Variable bit rates make better use of the available hard disk space. GOP-size GOP (Group Of Pictures) is a variable for specifying how images are used to generate the MPEG data stream. The higher the GOP-size is, the better the image quality, although a higher GOP-size will also result in an increase in the delay. A GOP-size between 6 and 15 generally represents a good compromise enabling good image quality with high compression. A GOP-size of 1 denotes a low compression factor and should only be used for special applications (e.g. multiplex mode). As from a GOP-size of 6 the use of B-Frames can be enabled by checking the appropriate checkbox. This setting also has a positive effect on the image quality but again results in a slight delay. GOP-sizes greater than 15 belong to the extended GOPs.

Deinterlacing The aim of this function is to enhance the image quality by computationally eliminating the so-called interlace effect, which may occur after merging two fields into a frame, from the frame. However, whether a higher quality can be achieved depends on many factors such as the speed of the motions in the image or the type of output device on the decoder side (digital or analogue monitor). It is therefore not possible to provide a general recommendation to activate or deactivate this function. Therefore, we do recommend that you test the output on the monitor/decoder after the function has been configured. For this purpose, select a playback scene typical for the camera concerned. If the interlace effect can be detected with moving objects i.e. if moving edges are slightly displaced bet­ ween two fields, this effect can be reduced by activating Deinterlacing. However, the playback thus may be jumpy. In this case the deactivation of this function may, in certain circumstances, result in a smoother playback. Note that Deinterlacing is only possible with a resolution of HalfD1 or higher. 10.3.2 Encoder 2 “Encoder 2” only encodes images to MJPEG format. The images encoded by Encoder 2 can be used for video streaming, accessed via RTSP and sent to an alarm host. ¾ Select the Encoder 2 tab. Fig. 10-4 “Encoder 2” is deactivated by default. ¾ Activate the use encoder checkbox if required. ¾ Select the frame rate from the drop-down list Frames/Second. ¾ Select the Resolution (width × height in pixels). ¾ Confirm with OK.

amount of required hard disk space to a certain extent. The higher the audio bit rate, the better the audio quality. A higher bit rate, however, requires more hard disk space than a lower bit rate. ¾ Select the Audio tab. Fig. 10-5 Note that audio encoding is only available at a frame rate of 25 fps (PAL) or 30 fps (NTSC). ¾ Select the Audiobitrate. ¾ Confirm with OK.

The motion detection function analyses if and how much two consecutive images differ from each other. If the difference satisfies the set criteria, the function assumes a motion event. Actions/functions which are based on motion events: • Recording • Event recording • SmartFinder5 • Message transfer to alarm host This dialogue may be locked by external devices/applications. The motion detection settings can be tested with the motion indicator in the live video frame. ¾ Click Motion detection … in the configuration menu. Fig. 11-1 ¾ Note the explanations below. ¾ Set the Level SAD. ¾ Select the Sensitivity. ¾ Confirm with OK. Level SAD Every image is split into sectors, with each being analysed for differences compared to the previous image. The Level SAD (SAD = Sum of absolute differences) defines the minimum level of alteration necessary to mark an image sector as altered. 200  Major changes required 10  Minor changes required 5 Dallmeier system for the intelligent search of motion events within an image

The limitation of the number of objects prevents motion event triggering with lots of small changes (e.g. image noise or snowfall). very sensitive  1 object  few events sensitive  2 objects normal  3 objects less sensitive  4 objects least sensitive  5 objects  lots of events off  Function switched off 11.1 SmartFinder To enable the intelligent search for motion events within an image with a Dallmeier recor­ der, SmartFinder has to be activated. ¾ Activate the Enable SmartFinder checkbox. Fig. 11-2 ¾ Note the explanations below. ¾ Select the Sensitivity. ¾ Enter the Fade Out Time (s) (value in seconds). ¾ Confirm with OK. Level SAD Function as described above but the value is predetermined by the system. Fade Out Time (s) This value in seconds defines how long an object (linked changed image sectors) is valid. If another object is detected in the same area during this period, it will not be assessed as a new event but will be discarded.

same object. Example: 0  Every object is a new event  Very large number of events Sensitivity This function checks the extent to which an old (still valid) object and a new object overlap. If the non-overlapping area is larger than an (internally) set value, the new object will be assessed as a new event. This function therefore represents a refinement of the mechanism set by the fade out time. very sensitive  Event even if non-overlapping area is small  Lots of events … least sensitive  Event only if non-overlapping area is very large  Few events 11.2 Active areas The motion detection function is active in the entire image area by default. In order to ignore motion events in certain areas, inactive areas can be defined. The current video image is only displayed in the dialogue if “Encoder mode > MJPEG” is set or “Encoder 2” is active (see section “Encoder settings” on page 46). ¾ Click Active areas.

The device can be configured as active network component for streaming of audio and video data (see section “Video streaming” on page 41). In addition the device, as a passive network component, can be triggered for transmission of audio and video data via various transport and data protocols by external devices and applications. 14.1 Web browser Current video data can be retrieved as a single image (JPEG) by any web browser. Transmission protocol HTTP Transport protocol TCP Port 80 Note that • the used Encoder must be set to MJPEG. • the used Encoder must be activated. • the JPEG live access right must be activated. Use the following retrieve expression for the various encoders: Encoder 1 http://IP address of the device/live/image0.jpg Encoder 2 http://IP address of the device/live/image1.jpg The displayed image can be refreshed anytime. The retrieve expression can be integrated in a HTML (JavaScript) page that refreshes the image automatically. 14.2 RTSP application The live video can be retrieved and controlled (start and stop) by external RTSP capable applications.

Use the following retrieve expression for the various encoders: Encoder 1 rtsp://IP address of the device/encoder1 Encoder 2 rtsp://IP address of the device Encoder 1 and 2 can be retrieved by two applications simultaneously. This allows realizing a dual streaming functionality (two streams with different quality). The required bandwidth rises proportionally when several applications request the data of one encoder. In this case a multicast configuration should be preferred, because it requires the bandwidth for one stream only.
