Options, MPEG-4 Protocol Options and MP4 Saving Options. When completed with the settings  
on this page, click Save on the page bottom to take effect.  
Stream Options  
The Network Camera supports MPEG-4 and MJPEG dual streams. For more information,  
please refer to Video settings on page 36.  
MPEG-4 Media Options  
Select to stream video or audio data. This works only when the video mode is set to MPEG-4.  
MPEG-4 Protocol Options  
Depending on your network environment, there are four transmission modes of MPEG-4  
streaming:  
UDP unicast: This protocol allows for more real-time audio and video streams. However, network  
packets may be lost due to network burst traffic and images may be broken. Activate 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, see RTSP  
Streaming on page 34.

VIVOTEK - A Leading Provider of Multimedia Communication Solutions  
TCP: This protocol guarantees the complete delivery of streaming data and thus provides better video  
quality. Nevertheless, the downside with this protocol is that its real-time effect is not as good as that of  
the UDP protocol.  
HTTP: This protocol allows the same quality as TCP protocol and you don’t need to open specific port  
for streaming under some network environments. Users inside a firewall can utilize this protocol to allow  
streaming data to come through.  
MP4 Saving Options  
Users can record the live video as they are watching it by clicking  
Start MP4 Recording on

► Enabling UPnP port forwarding allows the Network Camera to open secondary HTTP port on the  
router, not HTTP port, meaning that you have to add the secondary HTTP port number behind the  
Network Camera’s public address in order to access the Network Camera from the Internet. 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.  
From the Internet  
In LAN  
► If the PPPoE settings are incorrectly configured or the Internet access is not working, restore the  
Network Camera to factory default; please refer to Restore on page 52 for details. After the Network  
Camera is reset to factory default, it is accessible in LAN.  
HTTP  
Authentication: Depending on your network security requirements, the Network Camera provides two  
types of security settings for a HTTP transaction: basic and digest. If basic authentication is selected,  
the password is sent in plain text format; there can be potential risks of being intercepted. If digest  
authentication is selected, user credentials are encrypted in 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. Also, they can be assigned with another port number between 1025 and 65535. If the ports  
are incorrectly assigned, the following warning messages are displayed:  
To access the Network Camera within LAN, both 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.  
In LAN  
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 continuous JPEG pictures. This technology, known as “server  
push”, allows the Network Camera to feed live pictures to Mozilla Firefox and Netscape.

The 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 five ports can be changed between 1025 and 65535. The RTP port must be an even number and  
the RTCP port is RTP port number plus one, and thus always be odd. When the RTP port changes, the  
RTCP port will change accordingly.  
If the RTP ports are incorrectly assigned, the following warning message is displayed:  
Multicast settings for stream 1 / Multicast settings for stream 2: Select the Always multicast 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 by requesting a copy from the Multicast group address.  
The five ports can be changed 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 thus it is  
always be 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 is 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.

WPA-PSK: Use WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) pre-shared key.  
3.  
More secure than WEP, the Wi-Fi Alliance developed WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) in 2003 to  
address WEP’s weaknesses. Improvements included TKIP, which changes the encryption key for each  
data transmission.  
Algorithm: Choosing one of the following algorithm for WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK modes.  
TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol): A security protocol used in the IEEE 802.11 wireless networks.  
TKIP is a “wrapper” that goes around the existing WEP encryption. TKIP comprises the same  
encryption engine and RC4 algorithm defined for WEP. However, the key used for encryption in TKIP  
is 128 bits long. This solves the first problem of WEP: a too-short key length. (From Wikipedia)  
AES (Advanced Encryption Standard): In cryptography, the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES),  
also known as Rijndael, is a block cipher adopted as an encryption standard by the U.S. government.  
As of 2006, AES is one of the most popular algorithms used in symmetric key cryptography. (From  
Wikipedia)  
Pre-shared Key: Entering a key in ASCII format. The length of the key is 8 ~ 63.  
WPA2-PSK: Use WPA2 pre-shared key.  
4.  
The advanced protocol, certified through Wi-Fi Alliance’s WPA2 program, implements the mandatory  
elements of 802.11i. In particular, it introduces a new AES-based algorithm, CCMP, that is considered  
fully secure. From March 13, 2006, WPA2 certification is mandatory for all new devices wishing to be  
certified by the Wi-Fi Alliance as “Wi-Fi CERTIFIED.” (From Wikipedia)

4 and MJPEG.  
38 - User's Manual  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
VIVOTEK - A Leading Provider of Multimedia Communication Solutions  
If MPEG-4 mode is selected, it is streamed in RTSP protocol. There are four dependent parameters  
provided in MPEG-4 mode for video performance adjustment.  
■ 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, 352 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.  
■ Intra frame period  
Determine how often to plant an I frame. The shorter the duration, the more likely you will get a  
better video quality, but at the cost of higher network bandwidth consumption. Select the intra frame  
period from the following duration: 1/4 second, 1/2 second, 1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds and 4  
seconds.  
■ Video quality  
A complex scene generally produces 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 performances. The bit rates are selectable at the  
following rates: 20Kbps, 30Kbps, 40Kbps, 50Kbps, 64Kbps, 128Kbps, 256Kbps, 512Kbps, 768Kbps,  
1Mbps, 1.5Mbps, 2Mbps, 3Mbps and 4Mbps.  
On the other hand, if Fixed quality is selected, all frames are transmitted with the same quality;  
bandwidth utilization is therefore unpredictable. The video qualities are selectable at the following  
settings: Medium, Standard, Good, Detailed and Excellent.  
If JPEG mode is selected, the Network Camera continuously sends JPEG images to the clients,  
producing dynamic effects similar to movies. Every single JPEG image transmitted guarantees the  
same image quality, which in turn comes at the expense of variable bandwidth usage. And because  
the media contents are a combination of JPEG images, no audio data is transmitted to the clients.  
■ 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, 352 x 240 and 640 x 480.

that if mute mode is turned on, no audio data will be transmitted to all clients even though the audio  
transmission is enabled in the Client Settings page. In that case, the following message is displayed.  
Internal microphone input gain: There are two options for external microphone input gain, 0db and 20db.  
Audio type: Select audio codec AAC or GSM-AMR and the bit rate.  
■ AAC targets at performing good sound quality at the cost of higher bandwidth consumption. The bit  
rates are selectable at the following rates: 16Kbps, 32Kbps, 48Kbps, 64Kbps, 96Kbps and128Kbps.  
■ GSM-ARM is designed to optimize speech quality and requires less bandwidth. The bit rates are  
selectable at the following rates: 4.75Kbps, 5.15Kbps, 5.90Kbps, 6.7Kbps, 7.4Kbps, 7.95Kbps,

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 sense a slight movement while smaller sensitivity settings tend to neglect  
it. 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 higher security management, it is suggested to set higher sensitivity  
settings and smaller percentage values.

Application  
This section explains how to configure the Network Camera to react in response to particular  
situations. A typical application is that when a motion is detected, the Network Camera sends  
buffered images to a FTP server or via e-mail as notifications.  
In the illustation on the right side, an event  
can be triggered by many sources, such  
as motion detection or external digital  
input devices. When an event is triggered,  
you can specify what kind of action will be  
performed. You can configure the Network  
Camera to send snapshots or videos to your  
email address or FTP site.

ex. Motion detection,  
Periodically, Digital input,  
System reboot  
Media

(what to send)  
ex. Snapshot, Video Clips  
(where to send)  
ex. Email, FTP  
To start plotting an event, it is suggested to configure server and media columns first so that the  
Network Camera will know what action shall be performed when a trigger is activated.  
Media Settings  
In Media Settings column, click Add to open the media setting page. In this page, you can  
specify what kind of media to send when a trigger is activated. A total of five media settings can  
be configured.

Appendix  
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 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 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.  
Syntax:  
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>...]]
