Introduction
The RH Series cameras boast a number of configurable operating options. Unlike the majority of network cameras on the market the
RH series cameras allow you to customize these settings by cameras with different types of client.
And 'possible to completely configure the cameras from a PC using any browser (IE, Chrome, Safari etc.), or through the NetVMS
supervision software. It 'also possible to configure smartphone with the free DSE Smartlive application. In this manual we are
explained one by one all the configuration options by referring access by PC with the browser.explained one by one all the configuration options by referring access by PC with the browser.
The same options can be found both in the same NetVMS software application DSE Smartlive, which are dedicated to specific
content in the CD manual.

Thanks to Flash technology, supported by RH series cameras can use the browser of your
choice, such as INTERNET EXPLORER, SAFARI, FIREFOX, CHROME etc.
To access the camera using the Internet browser just type the address in the browser bar as in the following example:
A window will appear first log-in for entering username and password for access.

All the camera setup pages are accessible via the buttons on the left of the web interface screen.
Here in this chapter we will analyze one by one all the options that are located in these folders. The options are the same for all cameras
of the RH series, with slight variations according to the facilities and the individual model-specific functions.

DEVICE INFO
This window shows all the camera data and its capabilities.
The top two parameters can be edited. You should not change the device ID which is a unique identifier of the camera while you can set
the camera name based on its location so you can easily identify. To set a new name, type it into the text box and press SET.
Other data in the window are read-only and provide information on the hardware and software version of the camera and the range of
accessories.
STREAM CONFIGURATION
In this section you will set all the parameters that regulate the camera video stream and determining their heaviness in terms of
bandwidth requirement available. It is a fundamental adjustment in the economy of a CCTV system over IP and is often mistakenly
overlooked with the result of burdening the client and obtain long latencies (delays between action and image).
The cameras fact are delivered with factory settings that require a

considerable bandwidth consumption in order to show the user the highest quality video. However, it is not said that these settings are
totally exploitable in the context in which it is located. The first factor to consider is the network transfer capacity. The local networks
typically support large transfer bandwidth and allow the use of streams in full HD, as opposed to connect through the Internet requires the
use of a lighter stream low resolution to avoid excessive loss of frames.
The second factor to consider is the device used as a client (PC, cell phone, etc.). More will be fast to its processing capacity, the more
elevated the band that will be able to develop without causing excessive latency (delay) of the reproduction.
The third factor is of course the number of cameras that the client should be able to play.
If you connected to a PC multiple cameras simultaneously with the software NetVMS Show us one at a time and adjust the bandwidth
occupied by the streaming that appears superimposed intervening in the settings of the camera so as to maintain it at a value not
excessive. On a local network typically by adjusting the streaming to engage a maximum of 1000/2000 Kbps per camera you get one
FullHD streaming of good quality and can be connected to many cameras without introducing much latency.

Each camera can generate up to three different types of video streams that you can choose from the client when making the connection.
This way you can easily adapt to the bandwidth that you have available. For example, if we have access to the camera through a mobile
connection with low bandwidth availability we will choose to receive a stream with low resolution and frame rate.
STREAM ID - Select the stream to be programmed: 1,2 or 3. The stream 1 is the main stream in H264 and higher resolution to be used in STREAM ID - Select the stream to be programmed: 1,2 or 3. The stream 1 is the main stream in H264 and higher resolution to be used in
the connection of the internal network. Stream 2 is a lighter stream at reduced resolution may be used in connection via the Internet.
Streaming 3 finally is static compression MJPEG high quality but remarkable bandwidth, normally not recommended for normal
applications.
NAME - Assign a custom identification name to the stream NAME - Assign a custom identification name to the stream
ENCODE VIDEO / AUDIO ENCODE - Select the video and audio compression. Streams 1 and 2 use dynamic compression H264, while ENCODE VIDEO / AUDIO ENCODE - Select the video and audio compression. Streams 1 and 2 use dynamic compression H264, while
the stream 3 is reserved for MJPEG, static compression can provide higher video quality but also high bandwidth consumption.
RESOLUTION - Defines the resolution 1920x1080 (Full HD) or 640x360, the latter by RESOLUTION - Defines the resolution 1920x1080 (Full HD) or 640x360, the latter by

preferable with small bandwidth availability in the case of mobile telephones. From the Stream 2, normally reserved for the connection
bandwidth limited only resolution available is 640x360
FRAME RATE - The number of frames per second that make up the video stream (max. 25 streams 1-2 and max 12 for the stream to FRAME RATE - The number of frames per second that make up the video stream (max. 25 streams 1-2 and max 12 for the stream to
MJPEG 3). Consider that 25 f / sec corresponds to the so-called real-time ie the television standard in which the human eye does not
perceive the individual frames but a single uninterrupted sequence. Generally you can reduce this parameter up to 10/12 f / sec without
perceiving large video fluidity differences and thus saving a lot of bandwidth.
The FRAME INTERVAL - E 'the interval between two consecutive I-Frame in the H.264 compression and can be set to 1.2 or 3 seconds. The FRAME INTERVAL - E 'the interval between two consecutive I-Frame in the H.264 compression and can be set to 1.2 or 3 seconds.
A shorter interval corresponds greater accuracy in the location of the video but greater use of bandwidth. Recommended Value: 2.
BIT RATE - This section gives the possibility to choose between two different bandwidth management mode occupied: CONSTANT BIT BIT RATE - This section gives the possibility to choose between two different bandwidth management mode occupied: CONSTANT BIT BIT RATE - This section gives the possibility to choose between two different bandwidth management mode occupied: CONSTANT BIT
RATE (CBR) and VARIABLE BIT RATE (VBR). In the CBR mode (available for streams 1 and 2) the camera maintains a constant bit rate
that can be set in the box below between 500 and 12000 Kbps (default 8000 Kb). In the VBR mode instead of changing the bit rate camera
in different operating conditions in order to maintain a constant video quality. In this mode, you set the maximum bandwidth to be occupied
and video quality to keep (from 1 to 9, recommended: 5/7). If you decrease the quality below the value 5 you will notice a greater
pixelization due to the increased compression. It is recommended to set video quality in VBR above 7 with a low bit-rate value.
The VBR is always advisable. By using it the camera will occupy more bandwidth (up to the maximum threshold) if you are in the
presence of a lot of movement and reduce the occupied bandwidth in the case of still images.
