Client Settings This chapter explains how to select the stream transmission mode and saving options on the local computer. When finished with the settings on this page, click Save on the bottom of the page to enable the settings. MPEG-4 Protocol Options Depending on your network environment, there are four transmission modes for MPEG-4 streaming: UDP unicast: This protocol allows for better real-time audio and video streams. However, network packets may be lost due to network burst traffic and images may be broken. Activate the 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 36. TCP: This protocol guarantees the complete delivery of streaming data and thus provides better video quality. However, the real-time effect is not as good as that of the UDP protocol. HTTP: This protocol allows for the same transmission quality as the TCP protocol without needing to open specific ports for streaming under some network environments. Users inside a firewall can utilize this protocol to allow streaming data through.

MP4 Saving Options Users can record live video as they are watching by clicking Start MP4 Recording on the main page. Here, you can specify the storage destination and file name.

Authentication: Depending on your network security requirements, the Network Camera provides two types of security settings for an HTTP transaction: basic and digest. If basic authentication is selected, the password is sent in plain text format and there can be potential risks of being intercepted. If digest authentication is selected, user credentials are encrypted using MD5 algorithm and thus provide better protection against unauthorized accesses. HTTP port / Secondary HTTP port: By default, the HTTP port is set to 80 and the secondary HTTP port is set to 8080. They can also be assigned to another port number between 1025 and 65535. If the ports are incorrectly assigned, the following warning messages will be displayed: To access the Network Camera on the LAN, both the HTTP port and secondary HTTP port can be used to access the Network Camera. For example, when the HTTP port is set to 80 and the secondary HTTP port is set to 8080, refer to the list below for the Network Camera’s IP address. Access name for stream 1 / Access name for stream 2: The access name is used to differentiate the streaming source. When using Mozilla Firefox or Netscape to access the Network Camera and the video mode is set to JPEG, users will receive video comprised of continuous JPEG images. This technology, known as “server push”, allows the Network Camera to feed live pictures to Mozilla Firefox and Netscape. In LAN http://192.168.4.160 or http://192.168.4.160:8080

URL command -- http://:/ For example, when the Access name for stream 2 is set to video2.mjpg: 1. Launch Mozilla Firefox or Netscape. 2. Type the URL command in the address bar. Press Enter. 3. The JPEG images will be displayed in your web browser. NOTE ► Microsoft ® Internet Explorer does not support server push technology; therefore, using http://:/ will fail to access the Network Camera. HTTPS By default, the HTTPS port is set to 443. It can also be assigned to another port number between 1025 and 65535. FTP The FTP server allows the user to save recorded video clips. You can utilize VIVOTEK Installation Wizard 2 to upgrade the firmware via FTP server. By default, the FTP port is set to 21.

RTSP port /RTP port for video, audio/ RTCP port for video, audio ■ RTSP (Real-Time Streaming Protocol) controls the delivery of streaming media. By default, the port number is set to 554. ■ The RTP (Real-time Transport Protocol) is used to deliver video and audio data to the clients. By default, the RTP port for video is set to 5556 and the RTP port for audio is set to 5558. ■ The RTCP (Real-time Transport Control Protocol) allows the Network Camera to transmit the data by monitoring Internet traffic volume. By default, the RTCP port for video is set to 5557 and the RTCP port for audio is set to 5559. The ports can be changed to values between 1025 and 65535. The RTP port must be an even number and the RTCP port is the RTP port number plus one, and thus is always odd. When the RTP port changes, the RTCP port will change accordingly. If the RTP ports are incorrectly assigned, the following warning message will be displayed: Multicast settings for stream 1 / Multicast settings for stream 2: Click the items to display the detailed configuration information. Select the Always multicast option to enable multicast for stream 1 or stream 2. Unicast video transmission delivers a stream through point-to-point transmission; multicast, on the other hand, sends a stream to the multicast group address and allows multiple clients to acquire the stream at the same time by requesting a copy from the multicast group address. Therefore, enabling multicast can effectively save Internet bandwith. The ports can be changed to values between 1025 and 65535. The multicast RTP port must be an even number and the multicast RTCP port number is the multicast RTP port number plus one, and is thus always odd. When the multicast RTP port changes, the multicast RTCP port will change accordingly. If the multicast RTP video ports are incorrectly assigned, the following warning message will be displayed: Multicast TTL [1~255]: The multicast TTL (Time To Live) is the value that tells the router the range a packet can be forwarded.

Video quality settings for stream 1 / stream 2 Advanced Mode The Network Camera offers two choices of video compression standards for real-time viewing: MPEG-4 and MJPEG. Click the items to display the detailed configuration settings. You can set up two seperate streams for the Network Camera 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. If MPEG-4 mode is selected, it is streamed in RTSP protocol. There are four parameters provided in MPEG-4 mode which allow you to adjust the video performance: ■ Frame size Select the video size. Note that a larger frame size takes up more bandwidth. The frame sizes are selectable in the following resolutions: 176 x 144, 320 x 240 and 640 x 480. ■ 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, the frame rates are selectable at 1fps, 2fps, 3fps, 5fps, 8fps, 10fps, 15fps, 20fps, and 25fps. If the power line frequency is set to 60Hz, the frame rates are selectable at 1fps, 2fps, 3fps, 5fps, 8fps, 10fps, 15fps, 20fps, 25fps, and 30fps. You can also select Customize and manually enter a value.

■ Intra frame period Determine how often 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 A complex scene generally produces a larger file size, meaning that higher bandwidth will be needed for data transmission. Therefore, if Constant bit rate is selected, the bandwidth utilization is fixed at 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, 3Mbps, and 4Mbps. You can also select Customize and manually enter a value. 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. If JPEG mode is selected, the Network Camera continuously sends JPEG images to the client, producing a moving effect similar to a filmstrip. 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 Select the video size. Note that a larger frame size takes up more bandwidth. The frame sizes are selectable in the following resolutions: 176 x 144, 320 x 240 and 640 x 480. ■ Maximum frame rate This limits the maximal refresh frame rate per second. Set the frame rate higher for a smoother video quality. If the power line frequency is set to 50Hz, the frame rates are selectable at the following rates: 1fps, 2fps, 3fps, 5fps, 8fps, 10fps, 15fps, 20fps and 25fps. If the power line frequency is set to 60Hz, the frame rates are selectable at the following rates: 1fps, 2fps, 3fps, 5fps, 8fps, 10fps, 15fps, 20fps, 25fps and 30fps. You can also select Customize, and manually enter a value. ■ Video quality The video qualities are selectable at the following settings: Medium, Standard, Good, Detailed and Excellent. You can also select Customize, and manually enter a value. NOTE ► The value of video quality and fixed quality refers to the compression rate, so the lower value will produce the higher quality. Day/Night Settings Switch to B/W in night mode Select this to enable the Network Camera to automatically switch to B/W during night mode.

IR LED With built-in IR illuminators, up to 15m, this Network Camera can make use of IR light during low light conditions.

When motions are detected by the Network Camera and are judged to exceed the defined threshold, the red bar rises. Meanwhile, the motion detection window will be outlined in red. Photos or videos can be captured instantly and configured to be sent to a remote server (Email, FTP) by utilizing this feature as a trigger source. For more information on how to set an event, please refer to Application on page 56. Video(TCP-AV) Video(TCP-AV) Motion Detection Setting 2: for special situation Motion Detection Setting 1: for normal situation

A green bar indicates that even though motions have been detected, the event has not been triggered because the image variations still fall under the defined threshold. If you want to configure other motion detection settings for day/night/schedule mode, please click Profile to open the Motion Detection Profile Settings page as shown below. A total of three motion detection windows can be configured on this page as well. Please follow the steps beolw to set up a profile: 1. Create a new motion detection window. 2. Check Enable this profile. 3. Select the applicable mode: Day mode, Night mode, or Schedule mode. Please manually enter a time range if you choose Schedule mode. 4.

You can go to Application > Event Settings > Trigger to choose it as a trigger source. Please refer to page 58 for detailed information. Percentage = 30% Video(TCP-AV)

NOTE ► How does motion detection work? There are two motion detection parameters: Sensitivity and Percentage. In the illustration above, frame A and frame B are two sequential images. Pixel differences between the two frames are detected and highlighted in gray (frame C) and will be compared with the sensitivity setting. Sensitivity is a value that expresses the sensitivity to moving objects. Higher sensitivity settings are expected to detect slight movements while smaller sensitivity settings will neglect them. When the sensitivity is set to 70%, the Network Camera defines the pixels in the purple areas as “alerted pixels” (frame D). Percentage is a value that expresses the proportion of “alerted pixels” to all pixels in the motion detection window. In this case, 50% of pixels are identified as “alerted pixels”. When the percentage is set to 30%, the motions are judged to exceed the defined threshold; therefore, the motion window will be outlined in red. For applications that require a high level of security management, it is suggested to use higher sensitivity settings and smaller percentage values. A B D C

Appendix URL Commands for the Network Camera Overview For some customers who already have their own web site or web control application, the Network Camera/Video Server can be easily integrated through URL syntax. This section specifies the external HTTP-based application programming interface. The HTTP-based camera interface provides the functionality to request a single image, control camera functions (PTZ, output relay etc.), and get and set internal parameter values. The image and CGI-requests are handled by the built-in Web server. Style Convention In URL syntax and in descriptions of CGI parameters, text within angle brackets denotes content that is to be replaced with either a value or a string. When replacing the text string, the angle brackets should also be replaced. An example of this is the description of the name for the server, denoted with in the URL syntax description below, that is replaced with the string myserver in the URL syntax example further down in the page. URL syntax is denoted with the word "Syntax:" written in bold face followed by a box with the referenced syntax as shown below. For example, name of the server is written as and is intended to be replaced with the name of the actual server. This can either be a name, e.g., "mywebcam" or "thecam. adomain.net" or the associated IP number for the server, e.g., 192.168.0.220. Syntax: http:///cgi-bin/viewer/video.jpg Description of returned data is written with "Return:" in bold face followed by the returned data in a box. All data returned as HTTP formatted, i.e., starting with the string HTTP is line separated with a Carriage Return and Line Feed (CRLF) printed as \r\n. Return: HTTP/1.0 \r\n URL syntax examples are written with "Example:" in bold face followed by a short description and a light grey box with the example. Example: request a single snapshot image http://mywebserver/cgi-bin/viewer/video.jpg

General CGI URL syntax and parameters CGI parameters are written in lower-case and as one word without any underscores or other separators. When the CGI request includes internal camera parameters, the internal parameters must be written exactly as they are named in the camera or video server. The CGIs are organized in function related directories under the cgi-bin directory. The file extension of the CGI is required. Syntax: http:///cgi-bin/[/...]/. [?=[&=...]] Example: Setting digital output #1 to active http://mywebserver/cgi-bin/dido/setdo.cgi?do1=1 Security level SECURITY LEVEL SUB-DIRECTORY DESCRIPTION 0 anonymous Unprotected. 1 [view] anonymous, viewer 1. Can view, listen, talk to camera 2. Can control dido, ptz of camera 4 [operator] anonymous, viewer, operator Operator’s access right can modify most of camera’s parameters except some privilege and network options 6 [admin] anonymous, viewer, operator, admin Administrator’s access right can fully control the camera’s operation. 7 N/A Internal parameters. Unable to be changed by any external interface. Get server parameter values Note: The access right depends on the URL directory. Method: GET/POST Syntax: http:///cgi-bin/anonymous/getparam.cgi?[] [&…]

http:///cgi-bin/viewer/getparam.cgi?[] [&…] http:///cgi-bin/operator/getparam.cgi?[] [&…] http:///cgi-bin/admin/getparam.cgi?[] [&…] where the should be [_] or [.] If you do not specify the any parameters, all the parameters on the server will be returned. If you specify only , the parameters of related group will be returned. When query parameter values, the current parameter value are returned. Successful control request returns paramter pairs as follows. Return: HTTP/1.0 200 OK\r\n Content-Type: text/html\r\n Context-Length: \r\n \r\n where is =\r\n [] is the actual length of content. Example: request IP address and it’s response Request: http://192.168.0.123/cgi-bin/admin/getparam.cgi?network_ipaddress Response: HTTP/1.0 200 OK\r\n Content-Type: text/html\r\n Context-Length: 33\r\n \r\n network.ipaddress=192.168.0.123\r\n
