4.3.17 Algorithm
You can change the compression algorithm used by the AP-5004 to record video. The AP-5004 supports
MPEG, JPEG, MJPEG, and H.263 ,MPEG4 algorithms for compression. For the JPEG and MJPEG
algorithms, the video quality is better but the data rate is also high. The H.263 and MPEG4 algorithm
provides a good video quality with low data rate .
To set up the algorithm:
1. Use the Up and Down arrow buttons to select a field to change from the Algorithm menu.
2. Use the Right and Left arrow buttons to toggle the available options.
3. Press the OK button when the fields are set correctly.
4.3.18 NTP setup
Use the NTP (Network Time Protocol) Setup function to synchronize the real-time clock on the AP-5004
with the atomic clock. Before using this feature, make sure that the correct date, time and time zone have
been set up. Also make sure that the DNS IP number has been set up under the TCP/IP settings.
The following options are available in the submenu:
Enable - enables the NTP function to synchronize the real-time clock.
Period (Hour) - sets up the time interval after which the time is re-synchronized.
Server - selects the NTP server from several pre-defined choices.
Edit NTP Server - enables you to choose your own NTP server.
