In this manual, "User" refers to whoever has access to the Network Camera, and  
"Administrator" refers to the person who can configure the Network Camera and grant  
user access to the camera.  
Hardware installation  
the foregoing Package Contents. Depending on the  
user’s application, an Ethernet cable may be needed.  
The Ethernet cable should meet the specs of UTP  
Category 5 and not exceed 100 meters in length.  
Connect the power adapter jack to the Network  
Camera before plugging in to the power socket. This will  
reduce the risk of accidental electric shock.  
Please verify that  
your product package  
contains  
all  
the  
accessories listed in  
Upon powering up, the LED will become lighted first and then the device will go through  
booting process. The LED will be steady orange for getting IP address. After getting IP  
Address, the LED will blink green every second and the red-color is always on.  
The Network Camera will first detect Ethernet. Operating in either network mode, the  
LED will blink green-color as heartbeat to indicate alive.

To install in Ethernet  
Make sure the Ethernet is firmly connected to a switch hub. After attaching the Ethernet  
cable plug in the power adapter. If the LED turns out to blink green-color, go to next  
paragraph “Software installation. If the Ethernet is not available, Network Camera will  
switch to wireless LAN mode.  
This Network Camera provides a general I/O terminal block with one digital input and one  
digital output device control. The pin definition is as below.  
Software installation  
At the end of the hardware installation, users can use Installation Wizard program  
included in the product CDROM to find the location of the Network Camera. There may be  
many Network Cameras in the local network. Users can differentiate the Network  
Cameras with the serial number. The serial number is printed on the labels on the carton  
and the back of the Network Camera body. Please refer to the user’s manual of  
Installation Wizard for detail.

Once installation is complete, the Administrator should proceed to the next  
section "Initial access to the Network Camera" for necessary checks and  
configurations.  
Initial Access to the Network Camera  
Check Network Settings  
The Network Camera can be connected either before or immediately after software  
installation onto the Local Area Network. The Administrator should complete the  
network settings on the configuration page, including the correct subnet mask and IP  
address of gateway and DNS. Ask your network administrator or Internet service  
provider for the detail information. By default the Network Camera requires the  
Administrator to run installation every time it reboots. If the network settings are to  
remain unchanged, disable the Install option. Refer to “Network settings” on the  
System Configuration page for details. If any setting is entered incorrectly and cannot  
proceed to setting up the Network Camera, restore the factory settings following the  
steps in the “Troubleshooting” chapter of the Appendix.  
Add Password to prevent Unauthorized Access  
The default Administrator’s password is blank and the Network Camera initially will not  
ask for any password. The Administrator should immediately implement a new  
password as a matter of prudent security practice. Once the Administrator’s password  
is saved, the Network Camera will ask for the user’s name and password before each  
access. The Administrator can set up a maximum of twenty (20) user accounts. Each  
user can access the Network Camera except to perform system configuration. Some  
critical functions are exclusive for the Administrator, such as system configuration, user  
administration, and software upgrades. The user name for the Administrator is  
permanently assigned as “root. Once the password is changed, the browser will  
display an authentication window to ask for the new password. Once the password  
is set, there is no provision to recover the Administrator’s password. The

only option is to restore to the original factory default settings.  
How to Use  
A PC with Windows operating system can use the Internet Explorer to connect to the  
Network Camera. A plug-in will be installed into the IE when it is connected for the first  
time. A PC with Linux operating system can connect to the camera using a browser like  
Firefox. It needs to install QuickTime first to view streaming.  
Authentication  
After opening the Web browser and typing in the URL of the Network Camera, a  
dialogue window pops up to request a username and password. Upon successful  
authentication, the following figure is displayed.  
The foreground is the login window and the background shows the message if  
authentication fails. The user may check the option box to save the password for future  
convenience. This option is not available to the Administrator for obvious reason.

Client settings  
There are four settings for the client side in IE. The first one is “Stream Options” for  
users to determine which stream to be streaming. This product supports dual-stream.  
Therefore, there are two streams to choose. The second one is “MPEG-4 Media  
- 18 -

Options. for users to determine which media to be streaming under MPEG-4 mode.  
The third one is “MPEG-4 Protocol Options” which allows choices on connection  
protocol between client and server. There are four protocols choices to optimize your  
usage – UDP unicast, UDP multicast, TCP and HTTP.  
The UDP unicast protocol allows for more real-time audio and video streams. However,  
some packets may be lost due to network burst traffic and images may be obscured.  
The UDP multicast protocol allows to save the bandwidth of server while serving  
multiple clients at the same time.  
The TCP protocol allows for less packet loss and produces a more accurate video  
display. The downside with this protocol is that the real-time effect is worse than that  
with the UDP protocol.  
The HTTP protocol allows the same quality as TCP protocol and the user don’t need to  
open specific port to streaming under some network environment.  
If no special need is required, UDP unicast protocol is recommended. Generally  
speaking, the client’s choice will be in the order of UDP multicast UDP unicast →  
TCP HTTP. After the Network Camera is connected successfully, Protocol Option”  
will indicate the selected protocol. The selected protocol will be recorded in the user's  
PC and will be used for the next connection. If the network environment is changed, or  
the user wants to let the web browser to detect again, manually select the UDP protocol,  
save, and return HOME to re-connect.  
The fourth one is “Save Options. User can specify the recording folder, file name  
prefix and suffix here.  
There is only one setting “Stream Options” for the client side in Firefox. User can  
choose to view stream1 and stream2.

Administrator’s capability  
Fine-tuning for Best Performance  
Best performance generally equates to the fastest image refresh rate with the best  
video quality, and at the lowest network bandwidth as possible. The three factors,  
“Maximum frame rate, Constant bit rate, and “Fix quality” for MPEG-4 mode and  
“Maximum frame rate” and “Fix quality” for JPEG mode on the Audio and Video  
Configuration page, are correlative to allow for achieving the best performance  
possible.

For Viewing by Mobile Phone  
Most 3GPP cell phone supports media streaming with MPEG4 video and GSM-AMR  
audio. Due to the limitation of the bandwidth for 3GPP, only 176x144 video solution will  
be supported for cell phone viewing. Please set related video settings first as  
mentioned when viewing by mobile phone.

For Best Real-time Video Images  
To achieve good real-time visual effect, the network bandwidth should be large enough  
to allow a transmission rate of greater than 20 image frames per second. If the  
broadband network is over 1 Mbps, set the “Fix bit rate” to 1000Kbps or 1200Kbps, or  
set “Fix quality” at the highest quality. The maximum frame rate is 30. If your network  
bandwidth is more than 512Kbps, you can fix the bit rate according to your bandwidth  
and set the maximum frame rate to 30 fps. If the images vary dramatically in your  
environment, you may want to slow the maximum frame rate down to 20 fps in order  
to lower the rate of data transmission. This allows for better video quality and the  
human eyes cannot readily detect the differences between those of 20, 25, or 30  
frames per second. If your network bandwidth is below 512 Kbps, set the “Fix bit rate”  
according to your bandwidth and try to get the best performance by fine-tuning with  
the “Maximum frame rate. In a slow network, greater frame rate results in blur images.  
Video quality performance will vary somewhat due to the number of users viewing on  
the network; even when the parameters have initially been finely tuned. Performance  
will also suffer due to poor connectivity because of the network’s burst constraint.  
Only Quality Images Will Do  
To have the best video quality, you should set “Fix quality” at “Detailed” or “Excellent”  
and adjust the “Maximum frame rate” to match your network’s bandwidth. If your  
network is slow and you receive “broken” pictures, go to the TCP or HTTP protocol in  
“MPEG-4 Protocol Options” and choose a more appropriate mode of transmission. The  
images may suffer a time delay due to a slower connection. The delay will also increase  
with added number of users.  
Somewhere Between Real-time and Clear Images  
If you have a broadband network, set “Fix quality” at ”Normal” or better, rather than  
setting “Fix bit rate. You can also fix the bandwidth according to your actual network  
speed and adjust the frame rate. Start from 30 fps down for best results but not below  
15 fps. If the image qualities are not improved, select a lower bandwidth setting.

Access List  
The access list is to control the access permission of clients by checking the client IP  
address.  
There are two lists for permission control: Allow List and Deny List. Only those  
clients whose IP address is in the Allow List and not in the Deny List can connect to  
the Video Server or Network Camera for receiving the audio/video streaming.  
Both Allow List and Deny List consist of a list of IP ranges. If you want to add a new  
IP address range, type the Start IP Address and End IP Address in the text boxes  
and click on the Add button. If you want to remove an existing IP address range, just  
select from the pull-down menu and click on the Delete button.

Audio and Video  
This product supports dual-stream. It provides two setting for video streams, but only  
one setting for audio.  
Video Settings  
“Video title” The text string can be displayed on video  
“Color” Select either for color or monochrome video display.  
“Power line frequency”, the fluorescent light will flash according to the power line  
frequency that depends on local utility. Change the frequency setting to eliminate  
uncomfortable flash image when the light source is only fluorescent light.  
Video orientation  
“Flip” Vertically rotate the video.  
“Mirror” Horizontally rotate the video. Check options both if the Network Camera is  
installed upside down.  
“White balance” Adjust the value for best color temperature.  
“Maximum Exposure Time” Adjust the maximum exposure time in different  
environment.  
“Overlay title and time stamp on video” Check it the title is shown on video.  
There are different video quality settings for stream1 and stream2.  
“Mode” It can be MPEG-4 or JPEG. If MPEG-4 is selected, it is streamed in RTSP  
protocol. If JPEG is selected, it is streamed in server push mode.  
“Frame Size” If the mode is MPEG-4, there are four options, “176x144”,  
“320x240”, “640x480” and “800x600”. If the mode is JPEG, there are five options,  
“176x144”, “320x240”, “640x480”, “800x600” and “1280x1024”. The  
maximum connection number is two when the frame size is “800x600” or “1280x1024”  
in JPEG mode.

There are three dependent parameters provided in MPEG-4 mode for video  
performance adjustment.  
“Intra frame period” The interval of intra frame.  
“Max frame rate” This limits the maximal refresh frame rate, which can be combined  
with the “Video quality” to optimize bandwidth utilization and video quality. Choose  
Constant bit rate” If the user wants to fix the bandwidth utilization regardless of the  
video quality, choose “Fixed quality” and select the desired bandwidth. The video  
quality may be poor due to the sending of maximal frame rate within the limited  
bandwidth when images are moving rapidly. Consequently, to ensure detailed video  
quality (quantization rate) regardless of the network, it will utilize more bandwidth to  
send the maximal frames when images change drastically.  
In JPEG mode, user can set “Max frame rate” and “Video quality” to adjust the  
video performance.  
Audio settings  
“Use” Switch “Internal” or “Microphone” to set up the source of audio input  
“Mute” To turn off audio  
“Internal microphone input gain” Modify the gain of the internal audio input  
“External microphone input” There are two gain options, 0dB and 20dB.  
“Audio type” Select audio codec “AAC” or “GSM-AMR” and the bit rate

B. URL commands of the Network Camera  
Overview  
For some customers who already have their own web site or web control application,  
Network Camera/Video server can be easily integrated through convenient URLs. This  
section specifies the external HTTP based application programming interface. The HTTP  
based camera interface provides the functionality to request a single image, to control  
camera functions (PTZ, output relay etc.) and to 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, a text within angle brackets  
denotes a content that is to be replaced with either a value or a string. When replacing  
the text string also the angle brackets shall be replaced. An example of this is the  
description of the name for the server, denoted with <servername> in the URL syntax  
description below, that is replaced with the string myserver in the URL syntax example,  
also below.  
URL syntax' are written with the “Syntax:" word written in bold face followed by a box  
- 57 -  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
with the referred syntax as seen below. The name of the server is written as  
<servername>. This 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.  
Special note will be marked as RED words to take care.  
Syntax:  
http://<servername>/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 <HTTP code> <HTTP text>\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  
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://<servername>/cgi-bin/<subdir>[/<subdir>...]/<cgi>.<ext>  
[?<parameter>=<value>[&<parameter>=<value>...]]
