circumstances of product use. In addition to the profiles provided by default, the user
can add a new profile or delete an existing one. You can set the codec, profile type,
resolution, frame rate, multicast, and other settings for each profile.
Profile list
The profile list is provided by default; all profiles added by the user are also displayed.
Name
The name of the profile selected from the profile list will be displayed. You can enter a
new profile name if creating a new profile.
Codec
Select the codec which you wish to apply to the profile. The profile properties may vary
according to the selected codec type.

Profile type
Select a profile type to apply. The selected profile type will be displayed in the [Type]
column of the profile list. The setup items may vary according to the selected codec
type.
Default profile: This is the default profile applied for streaming a live camera image.
‘Default’ is displayed in [Type] in the profile list.
E-mail/FTP profile: This video profile is used for sending the captured screen of an
image when an event is created. ‘Event’ is displayed in [Type] in the profile list. The
E-mail/FTP profile option will appear only when MJPEG is set for the codec.
Record profile: This profile is applied for recording an image on an SD card or NAS.
‘Record’ is displayed in [Type] in the profile list.
Frame Lock profile: This is a profile applied to guarantee a certain level of video
frame rate. This ‘Frame Lock profile’ option appears only when [Codec] is set to
[h.264] or [h.265].
ATC mode
The ATC (Auto Transmit Control) mode adjusts the amount of data sent, by changing
the properties of the image according to network bandwidth changes. The adjustment
method for the sent amount varies according to the ATC mode.
Disable: A fixed amount of sent data is maintained even if the network bandwidth
changes.
Enable - Control frame rate: If the network bandwidth changes, you can adjust the
amount of data to be sent by changing the frame rate.
Enable - Control compression: If the network bandwidth changes, you can adjust the
amount of data to be sent by changing the data compression rate. Change in
compression ratio may degrade the image quality.
Enable – Event (MD): This mode can be used when Motion detection event is set.
When a motion detection event is created and the network bandwidth changes, you
can adjust the amount of data by changing the frame rate. When no motion is
detected, reduce bandwidth use by outputting the minimum frames.
Sensitivity
Adjust the reflection speed of network bandwidth changes. The reflection speed is
fastest when the ATC sensitivity is very high, while the reflection speed is the slowest
when it is very low.
ATC sensitivity is activated only when [Enable - Control frame rate] or [Enable - Control
compression] is selected for [ATC mode].
Limit
When the amount of video data transfer changes depending on the amount of the
network bandwidth change, set the limit of ATC mode as to how much change you will
allow for the property. Assuming no usage of the ATC mode as 100%, this value can be
between 10-50%; the amount of video data transfer will not fall below this value.
In this case, decreasing this value too much might cause the flickering of screen.
Therefore, you should adjust the limit setting by adjusting this setting.
ATC limit is activated only when [Enable - Control frame rate] or [Enable - Control
compression] is selected for [ATC mode].

Note
It is recommended to use ATC only in an environment where all cameras are supporting
ATC.
In an environment where the amount of network bandwidth change is drastic, set the ATC
sensitivity to[Very low].
Unstable network environment may result in screen flickering.
Profile properties
Note
In order to stream a high-resolution image smoothly, it is recommended to connect to the
web viewer using Google Chrome.
Advanced
Set the details for the current video profile.
Resolution
Set the resolution of the camera image.
Frame rate
Set the number of frames per second.
The range of frame rates available varies according to the frame rate value selected
from [Video & Audio]>[Camera setup]>[Sensor].
Maximum bitrate
Set the maximum bitrate of the image when [Bitrate control] is [VBR].
Target bitrate
Fix the amount of image data to be sent if [Bitrate control] is [CBR].
If either [H.264] or [H.265] is set for [Codec] of the profile, all advanced setup items will
be displayed. If [MJPEG] is selected for [Codec] of the profile, only the [Encoding
priority] item will be displayed.
Bitrate control
Set how to adjust the amount of image data.
CBR: Constant Bitrate is for sending full-frame data of a constant size. When CBR
is selected, the size of data to be sent is set by setting the target bitrate. CBR has a
constant data size, making it is easy to predict the data size for the whole system,
enabling the system to be operated stably.
VBR: Variable Bitrate is for sending an image within the maximum bitrate without
fixing the data size of the frame. VBR can use storage space capacity or bandwidth
