1. Introduction
1.1. Overview
The AirGoggle NVS410 is a state-of-the-art 1-channel A/V server, which transmits both video and audio data in
real time with high-resolution and frame rate. This is possible through MPEG-4 CODEC technology, which
provides data transmission at high compression rates and data resolution via networks. The NVS410 is IP
addressable and can be controlled and monitored from a remote location through an IP address. Unlike CCTV
or DVR, the NVS410 is easy to install and very cost effective. Based on Embedded Software Solution
(Embedded Web Server, Embedded Streaming Server, Network Protocol), the NVS410 ensures high
performance, stability, and integration of various Internet solutions.
1.2. Features of NVS410
"1 channel real time Video/Audio streaming based on MPEG-4 video and ADPCM audio.
"1 channel Bi-directional Audio between NVS410 and Client PC for two-way communication
"The viewer assisted recording and playback functions.
"Motion detection – Up to 3 motion detection regions.
Motion detection can initiate video recording, which is sent to the user through FTP and (or) E-mail.
"Resolution :
NTSC Video : 640x240(Half VGA), 320x240(QVGA)
PAL/SECAM : 704x288, 352x288(CIF)
"Remote Software Upgrade over Network
"Remote P/T/Z control : Canon VC-C4/C4R etc.,
"Ease of use and convenient user interface.
1.3. Applications of NVS410
"Security surveillance (buildings, stores, factories, parking lots, banks, government facilities, military, etc.)
"Real time Internet broadcasting (resort areas, events, etc.)
"Remote monitoring (hospitals, kindergartens, traffic, public areas, etc.)
"Teleconference (Bi-directional video conference)
"Remote Learning
"Weather and environmental observation

Status indicator:
As shown in Figure 2-1, there are three status indicator LEDs. From left to right they are HDD,
LAN and Power.
HDD : This feature is not enabled for this model.
LAN : Link indicator, continuous green light means that LAN is in normal state. When there is
traffic on the LAN, orange light flickers.
Power : Status indicator shows the status of the NVS410 in three different colors.
Green : The green light indicates that the NVS410 is operating properly. If the green light is
continuously on, it means that the NVS410 is ready to transmit data via network. If
the green light blinks, it means that there is traffic between LAN and NVS410.
Red : The red light indicates that the hardware of the NVS410 is not operating properly.
Orange : The orange light indicates that the software of the NVS410 is not operating
properly.
When applying power to NVS410, power indicator temporarily li
g

3. Connecting the NVS410
NVS410 supports LAN, xDSL, and Cable modem. It also supports shared IP networks, where many internal
network clients share a single public IP address. Refer to [IP-Installer User’s Guide] for details of setting the
IP address for the NVS410.
3.1. Connection to a LAN
Typically the NVS410 is connected to a network as follows:
Figure 3-1. Typical NVS410 network connection
1. After it is powered on, connect the NVS410 to a LAN.
2. Assign an IP address to the NVS410 by using the IP-Installer. Make sure the PC running the IP-Installer is
in the same subnet as NVS410.
3. Check if video streams can be viewed with NVR100 software.
