Surveillance Application

2IE Remote Access
You may connect IP-Cam via LAN (LocalArea Network) or WAN (Wide Area Network). The
details are as follows:
2.1 LAN (Local network)
In LAN, there are two ways to access IP-Cam: 1. access through IP-Tool; 2. directly access
through IE browser.
2.1.1 Access through IP-Tool
Network connection:
① Make sure the PC and IP-Cam are connected to the LAN and the IP-Tool is installed
in the PC from the CD.
② Double click the IP-Tool icon on the desktop to run this software as shown below:

③ Modify the IP address. The default IP address of this camera is 192.168.226.201. Click
the information of the camera listed in the above table to show the network information on the
right hand. Modify the IP address and gateway of the camera and make sure its network address
is in the same local network segment as the computer’s. Please modify the IP address of your
device according to your local network configuration.
For example, the IP address of your computer is 192.168.1.4. So the IP address of the camera
shall be changed to 192.168.1.X. After modification, please input the password of the
administrator and click “Modify” button to modify the setting.
☞
④ Double click the IP address and then the system will pop up the IE browser to
connect IP-CAM. IE browser will auto download the Active X control. After
downloading, a login window will pop up as shown below.
Input the username and password to log in.
☞
2.1.2 Directly Access through IE
The default network settings are as shown below:

the Port forwarding, Virtual Server, Custom service, or Pinhole section in the router.
RouterSetup
④ Open the IE browser and input its WAN IP and http port to access. You can find the
WAN IP address under the router status page. It is also called the “Internet IP
address.”

4.2 Video Configuration
Camera Configuration includes five submenus: Camera, Video Stream, OSD Config, Video
Mask and ROI Config.
4.2.1 Camera
Setting steps:
1.Go to “Video Configuration” “Camera” interface as shown below.
2. You may adjust frequency, brightness, contrast, hue and saturation of the picture.
3. Select white balance mode.
4. Wide dynamic, sharpen, and denoise are adjustable.
5. Set day-night mode, sensitivity, and infrared mode.

7. Press the “Save” button to save the settings.
4.2.2 Video Stream
Go to “Video configuration”“Video Stream” to see an interface as shown below.

Three video streams are adjustable.
Resolution: The higher the resolution is, the clearer the image is.
Frame rate: The higher the frame rate is, the more fluency the video is. However, more storage
room will be taken up.
Bitrate type: Including CBR and VBR. CBR means that no matter how changeable the video
resources are, the compression bitrate keeps constant. This will not only facilitate the image
quality better in a constant bitrate but also help to calculate the capacity of the recording. VBR
means that the compression bitrate can be adjusted according to the change of the video
resources. This will help to optimize the network bandwidth.
VideoQuality:When VBR is selected,you need to choose imagequality. The higher the image
quality you choose, the more bitrate will be required.
Bitrate: Adjust accordingly.
I Frame interval: It is recommended to use the default value. If the value is too high, the read
speed of the group of pictures willbe slow resulting in quality loss of the video.
Video encoding: H264 and H265 are optional. Higher quality of image can be transferred
under limited network bandwidth by using H265 video encoding. However, higher quality of
hardware is required.
Profile: Baseline, main and high profile are optional. Baseline profile is mainly used in
interactive application with low complexity and delay. Main/high profile is mainly used for
higher coding requirement.
Alarm picture size: Please select accordingly.
Video encode slice split: If enabled, you may get a more fluent image even though using the
low-performance PC.
Audio Encoding: G.711A and G.711U are selectable.
Audio In Type: MIC and LIN are selectable.
