Setting an IP Source’s Record Rate
In Intellex IP, camera resolution is measured in CIF (Common Interchange Format).
The higher the camera resolution, the more system resources are consumed. A camera at 4 CIF
resolution uses 4 times the system resources as a camera at CIF resolution. If all cameras are
configured at CIF resolution, the system lets the user configure an aggregate rate of 480 ips; if all
cameras are configured at 4 CIF resolution, 120 ips.
If all cameras are not at the same resolution, determine the maximum aggregate rate:
1 Divide 480 ips by the number of connected cameras.
2 For each connected camera, divide the value from step 1 by:
• 1 if the camera is in CIF mode
• 2 if the camera is in 2 CIF mode
• 4 if the camera is in 4 CIF mode
CIF Record Rate
1 CIF = 320 × 240 pixels <480 ips
2 CIF = 640 × 240 pixels <
240 ips
4 CIF = 640 × 480 pixels <
120 ips
