4. My video picture has frozen and will not start again.
Firstly, check whether the camera is still transmitting; the power may have disconnected or the
user may have turned off transmission. In the case of a wireless system, it is also possible that the
camera has not gone out of range or the battery may be flat.
This is most likely due to a break down in communication between the Argus
®
4 camera and the
computer, particularly in the case of a wireless system.
Press stop and play on the player.
Try re-entering the URL as described previously to see if the video streaming restarts.
Close and restart the player.
With the Ateme player, ensure that the ‘retry’ option is ticked; this restarts automatically.
Check the system as described under FAQ 2; another wireless device may have been turned on
for example.
5. Can I control my camera remotely?
Camera control is performed using a USB link and the customer software. It is not possible to
control the camera directly over the network. The control functions are accessed via the ‘Remote
Camera’ interface shown below. The right-hand button is shown split for the dual function of zoom
and switching video output transmission. The control of digital zoom, video output and picture
capture are available on this interface, while the normal customisable settings such as colour
scheme are available as normal.
6. Can I view the camera remotely or via the internet?
This is not currently implemented on the camera. Discuss any special requirements with your
distributor or e2v sales office.
This can be achieved to some extent by using a computer to relay the analogue image from an
P7030EPVA, P7030AVBP or the analogue output of the P7030DRX using a proprietary TV card or
analogue video to network conversion unit. This functionality if often available with command
vehicle systems and the camera can be interfaced to these as a video source or directly as a
compatible LRT video source.
