Overview of Features

OnLine View: Allows viewing or recording one camera at a time.

(This can also be opened from the alarm alert feature.)

Server: This allows selecting a Video Server. Enter the Video Server IP

address (network PC name may also work).

Camera: After connecting, select a desired camera here.

Record: This allows starting and stopping a recording for the displayed

camera-image.

Resolution: Allows changing the size/quality of a camera-image. A suitable

value is normally selected automatically.

Compression: Provides selections that may improve performance for a

slower connection (i.e., dial-up).

- Keyframe every xx seconds

: This is how often a complete frame is sent

compared to only changes from the previous frame. Lower values provide

better image quality and require more bandwidth.

- Codec

: This determines the compression and file-type for recordings made

using this module: • Mpeg4: Produces MPEG video recordings (smaller file

size, lower quality); • Indeo5: Produces AVI video recordings (better quality,

larger file size); • Jpeg: Frame by frame compression (Mjpeg);

• DivX 3.11: Produces smaller, high quality AVI recordings.

Note

: Mpeg4 and Indeo5 are supported directly. For other file types, the

applicable CODEC must have been installed separately.
