1.2 Ethernet Setup
Ethernet setup as figure 1.8, all the parameter in the interface is needed to be reset. Also you can modify
the IP address by IP search (carried with UC2) or other tools. Make sure the IP address to be modified
and IP address of your PC are in the same network segment, and the IP address to be modified can not
be the same as the IP address of the PC in the network segment. After reset IP address the device will
reboot, then use the new IP address to access the HD IP CAMERA.
Net mask match with IP address to distinguish network address with local address, as 255.255.255.0. the
correct net mask is the premise for saving it.
Gate way is point between two networks such as router. So you can enter the router IP address.
DNS server address is host IP address running the domain server, which provide by network operators.
If enable the DHCP then it will obtain dynamic IP.

and so on , different country with different “Video Format”, in China just PAL format.

14
Figure 2.4 Video Capture Setup
When set the parameter values can be manually input values; also click “default” is a good method.
High “Saturation”means color is more obvious; High “Contrast”means the effect is more obvious. All
the parameters must according to the physical environment.
2.3 Time and Title Setup
As we know, time and title are displayed in the video window. But you can hide them or set their
transparency, position and so on. As shown in figure2.5.
Transparency range from 0 to 100. 0 means the time and title is visible but 100 is not. (The parameter is
reserved, do not work)
There are 8 time format, you can choose under preference.
There are 4 time/title positions, time and title display position to be in a different horizontal position.
The max length of the title message is 31 byte. Do not forget to save it!
Figure2.5 Time and Title

15
2.4 Video Encode
Set the Video encoding parameters as shown in figure 2.6.
There is only one resolution with the main stream. But there are five resolutions with sub stream. All the
encode format are H.264.
As we know, I frame is a key frame. I frame interval is too e, the quality of the video will be poorer
while the network is poor. So good network is a promise.
When the message of the video increase imminently and the bandwidth is fixed, you can choose VBR
(Bit rate Control), mosaic and shaking is the result when choose CBR. Fixed bandwidths first when
choose CVBR.
Larger frame rate means more fluent video. Smaller frame rate means slower image. 20 frames per
seconds is a best choose.
Figure2.6 Video Encode
Bit rate related to the speed of video transmission. The speed of D1 is at least 1000 kbps, but CIF is only
50.But when the resolution is 1080P, the “Bitrate”at least 6000 kbps and when the resolution is QVGA,
the “Bitrate”at least 300 kbps. The bit rate is too small result in poor image. Do not forget to save it!
2.5 Picture Capture
In the interface, “Picture Source”, “Picture Quality”and “Capture Speed”need to be set. Of course, the
default parameter is another way. As shown in figure 2.7

16
Figure2.7 Picture Capture
Picture source include “Main Stream” and “Sub Stream”; Picture quality range from 20 to 100, you also
can drag the slider; Capture speed between 1 and 2, means 1 or 2 pictures per second.
2.6 Privacy Mask
Privacy Mask set as shown in figure 2.8, only need to set the size of the area and keep out of the coordinates
of the block parameters can block out any part of the image. Main code stream and stream has 4 can be set
up respectively occluded area, coordinates, and can be set manually, the input integer value block width, set
coefficient after click save.

3.3 Record Setup
3.3.1 Basic Setup
In this option, you need to set 4 parameters “Local Storage”, “Storage Media”, “Storage Strategy”and
“Max Time Each File”. There are 7 methods about storage media. Storage strategy includes “Overwrite
When Full”and “Stop When Full”. “Overwrite When Full”means when all the storage is full, it will
delete the old record and go on recording; “Stop When Full”means when all the storage is full, it will
stop to record. The max time of each file is 10 or 20 or 30 minutes. But in fact the max time of each file
is 10 minutes, so “Max Time Each File”does not work there.
Figure3.7 Basic Set
3.3.2 Motion Detect Alarm Record
Motion detect alarm record means it will start recording when motion alarm is coming.
Video stream include “Video Main Stream”and “Video Sub Steam”. The former means record with
main stream; the latter means record with sub stream. Media type includes “Audio And Video”which
means record with audio and video and “Video”which means record without audio. Prerecord time
means it will prerecord when motion alarm is coming, the max time is 5 seconds and the min time is 1
seconds. The record time range from 10 to 600 seconds. Also you can set the motion alarm record
upload to FTP or send a email to you. Do not forget to save it!
