interval and quantity and the timing snapshot here.
Snapshot Quantity: The number you set here is the maximum quantity of snapshots. The
actual quantity of snapshots may be less than this number. Supposing the occurrence time of
an alarm event is less than the time of capturing pictures, the actual quantity of snapshots is
less than the set quantity of snapshots.
Timing Snapshot: Enable timing snapshot first and then set the snapshot interval and
schedule. The setup steps of schedule are the same as the schedule recording (See Schedule
Recording).
4.2 Image Configuration
Image Configuration includes Display, Video/Audio, OSD, Video Mask and ROI Config.
4.2.1 Display Configuration
Go to ImageDisplay interface as shown below. The image’s brightness, contrast, hue and

13
saturation and so on for common, day and night mode can be set up separately. The image
effect can be quickly seen by switching the configuration file.
Brightness: Set the brightness level of the camera’s image.
Contrast: Set the color difference between the brightest and darkest parts.
Hue: Set the total color degree of the image.
Saturation: Set the degree of color purity. The purer the color, the brighter the image is.
Sharpness: Set the resolution level of the image plane and the sharpness level of the image
edge.
Noise Reduction: Decrease the noise and make the image more thorough. Increasing the
value will make the noise reduction effect better but it will reduce the image resolution.
Defog: Activating this function and setting an appropriate value as needed in foggy, dusty,
smoggy or rainy environment to get clear images.
Backlight Compensation (BLC):
Off: disables the backlight compensation function. It is the default mode.
HWDR: WDR can adjust the camera to provide a better image when there are both very
bright and very dark areas simultaneously in the field of the view by lowering the brightness
of the bright area and increasing the brightness of the dark area.
Recording will be stopped for a few seconds while the mode is changing from non-WDR to

14
WDR mode.
HLC: lowers the brightness of the entire image by suppressing the brightness of the
image’s bright area and reducing the size of the halo area.
BLC: If enabled, the auto exposure will activate according to the scene so that the object
of the image in the darkest area will be seen clearly.
HFR: High Frame Rate. If “ON”is selected, the system will restart and then the maximum
value of the frame rate of the main stream can be set to 60 fps /50fps.
Antiflicker:
Off: disables the anti-flicker function. This is used mostly in outdoor installations.
50Hz: reduces flicker in 50Hz lighting conditions.
60Hz: reduces flicker in 60Hz lighting conditions.
Smart IR: Choose “ON”or “OFF”. This function can effectively avoid image overexposure
and underexposure by controlling the brightness of the IR lights according to the actual
conditions to make the image more realistic. Please enable it as needed.
White Balance: Adjust the color temperature according to the environment automatically.
Frequency: 50Hz and 60Hz can be optional.
Day/Night Mode: Choose “Auto”, “Day”, “Night”or “Timing”.
Infra-red Mode: Choose “Auto”, “ON”or “OFF”.
Exposure Mode: Choose “Auto” or “Manual”. If manual is chosen, the digital shutter speed
can be adjusted.
Corridor Pattern: Corridor viewing modes can be used for situations such as long hallways.
0, 90, 180 and 270 are available. The default value is 0. The video resolution should be 1080P
or below if this function is used.
Image Mirror: Turn the current video image horizontally.
Image Flip: Turn the current video image vertically.
Schedule Settings of Image Parameters:
Click the “Schedule” tab as shown below.
Set full time schedule for common, day, night mode and specified time schedule for day and
night. Choose “Schedule” in the drop-down box of schedule as shown below.

15
Drag “ ” icons to set the time of day and night. Blue means day time and blank means night
time. If the current mode of camera parameters is set to schedule, the image configuration
mode will automatically switch between day and night according to the schedule.
4.2.2 Video / Audio Configuration
Go to ImageVideo / Audio interface as shown below. In this interface, set the resolution,
frame rate, bitrate type, video quality and so on subject to the actual network condition.
Click the “Audio” tab to go to the interface as shown below.
Three video streams can be adjustable.
Resolution: The size of image.
Frame rate: The higher the frame rate, the video is smoother.
Bitrate type: CBR and VBR are optional. Bitrate is related to image quality. CBR means that
no matter how much change is seen in the video scene, the compression bitrate will be kept
constant. VBR means that the compression bitrate will be adjusted according to scene changes.
For example, for scenes that do not have much movement, the bitrate will be kept at a lower
value. This can help optimize the network bandwidth usage.
Bitrate: it can be adjusted when the mode is set to CBR. The higher the bitrate, the better the
image quality will be.
Video Quality: It can be adjusted when the mode is set to VBR. The higher the image quality,
the more bitrate will be required.
I Frame interval: It determines how many frames are allowed between a “group of pictures”.
When a new scene begins in a video, until that scene ends, the entire group of frames (or
pictures) can be considered as a group of pictures. If there is not much movement in the scene,
setting the value higher than the frame rate is fine, potentially resulting in less bandwidth
usage. However, if the value is set too high, and there is a high frequency of movement in the

16
video, there is a risk of frame skipping.
Video Compression: MJPEG, H264+, H264, H264S (Smart H.264), H265, H265+ or H265S
(Smart H.265) can be optional. MJPEG is not available for main stream. If H.265/H.265+/
H.265S is chosen, make sure the client system is able to decode H.265/H.265+/ H.265S.
Compared to H.265+/H.265, smart H.265 can spontaneously adjust the bitrate distribution
according to the requirements of the actual scene. For example, when there is no human or
vehicle detected, the bitrate will be automatically reduced with no effect on image quality by
using H.265S. Compared to H.265, H.265+ saves more storage space with the same
maximum bitrate in most scenes. Compared to H.264, H.265 reduces the transmission bitrate
under the same resolution, frame rate and image quality.
Profile: For H.264. Baseline, main and high profiles are selectable.
Send Snapshot: How many snapshots to generate for an event.
Video encode slice split: If this function is enabled, smooth image can be gotten even though
using the low-performance PC.
Watermark: When playing back the local recorded video in the search interface, the
watermark can be displayed. To enable it, check the watermark box and enter the watermark
text.
Audio Encoding: G711A and G711U are selectable.
Audio Type: LIN or MIC optional. MIC type is available for the model with built-in MIC
interface.
4.2.3 OSD Configuration
Go to ImageOSD interface as shown below.
Set time stamp, device name, OSD content and picture overlap here. After enabling the
corresponding display and entering the content, drag them to change their position. Then click
the “Save” button to save the settings.
