2.Connecting to Network.
Temporary IP address needs to be assigned via using NetSetup Utility or ARP/Ping in the initial
stage of using the product, in order to connect to the IP DVR SERVER.
The default network setup is as following;
zIP Address: 192.168.1.200
zSubnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
zDefault Gateway: 192.168.1.1
2.1. IP Address Setup.

MPEG-4 Stream
Operation
Either activate or deactivate the specific stream. Primary Stream is
always active. If user is not using Secondary Stream, it’s always a good
idea to deactivate it. For example, if user is running on 320x240 Single
Resolution (only Primary Stream is active), IP DVR SERVER will perform
at 30fps; however, if running on Dual Resolution (activating both
Primary Stream and Secondary Stream), frame rate will be less than
30fps. (Please refer to MPEG-4 Frame Rate on bottom of this chart for
further explanation).
Operation will also have effects on other functions as well. For
example, if you choose to run deactivate stream in “Record” or “Event,”
that specific function won’t perform normally.
Resolution Choose size of image per stream.
Bit-rate Control Choose between VBR (Variable Bit Rate) and CBR (Constant Bit Rate).
CBR can be set from 10kbit/s to 1800kbit/s.
GOV (Group Of Video)
Structure
Decide if image will be solely based on i-frame or mixture of i-frame
and p-frame.
GOV Length
Configure the i-frame interval. If set GOV Structure as “IP” and GOV
Length at 5, every 5th frame will be an i-frame, meaning, the output
will be “I P P P P I P P P P I P P P P …”
(If GOV Structure is set as “I,” GOV Length can only be 1.)
Frame rate
Configure the maximum frame rate per second. Depending on usage of
Secondary Stream and Resolution configuration, maximum frame rate
might differ from the set value.
In case of Single Resolution, 640x480 is maxed at 15fps and 320x240
is maxed at 30fps. However, if running a Dual Resolution, two different
streams are activated concurrently, thus, resulting in lower maximum
frame rate. For example, if running 640x480 and 320x240
simultaneously, both 640x480 and 320x240 will run at maximum value
of 10fps.
This value will also have effect on MPEG-4 image recording.

Motion JPEG Stream
Operation
Either activate or deactivate the specific stream. Primary Stream is
always active. If user is not using Secondary Stream, it’s always a good

Resolution (only Primary Stream is active), IP DVR SERVER will perform
at 30fps; however, if running on Dual Resolution (activating both
Primary Stream and Secondary Stream), frame rate will be less than
30fps. (Please refer to M-JPEG Frame Rate on bottom of this chart for
further explanation).
Operation will also have effects on other functions as well. For
example, if you choose to run deactivate stream in “Record” or “Event,”
that specific function won’t perform normally.
Resolution Choose size of image per stream.
Quality Configure the quality of each stream.
Frame rate
Configure the maximum frame rate per second. Depending on usage of

might differ from the set value.
