For this reason, the visual effect of Standard × 2 is worse than Double.
VPort 2141 Video Encoder User’s Manual Accessing the VPort 2141 Custom Camera Commands In addition to the default pan, tilt, zoom, and focus controls, users can define up to five buttons for controlling attached motorized (PTZ) cameras. Custom commands are set up by administrators, and are used for functions such as activating or deactivating a camera’s lens wiper. In general, administrators must refer to the camera’s user’s manual when defining custom commands.
4 Chapter 4 System Configuration After installing the hardware, the next task required is to configure the VPort 2141’s settings. There are 3 configuration methods, based on the type of access: web browser, FTP, and Telnet.
VPort 2141 Video Encoder User’s Manual System Configuration System Configuration by Web Browser System configuration can be done easily and remotely using Internet Explorer. In addition to classified categories of system configuration, two wizards are available to provide user-friendly instructions to facilitate the setup task. Alternatively, administrators can type the system configuration URL, http:///setup/config.html, to enter the configuration page directly.
VPort 2141 Video Encoder User’s Manual System Configuration Automatically Restore DO state There is a Automatically restore DO state after seconds setting below the Hostname, which is used to restore the relay output’s status to the default once the relays are triggered. By using this function, the administrator does not need to close the alarms trigged from the DOs manually. Date and Time The default setting for Date and Time is Keep current date and time.
VPort 2141 Video Encoder User’s Manual System Configuration Security Root password To change the administrator’s password, type the new password in both the Root password box and Confirm password box. The passwords you enter will be displayed in asterisks for security reasons. The maximum string length for a password is 16 characters. After clicking on Save to validate the new password, a window will open to ask the administrator for the new password to access the VPort.
VPort 2141 Video Encoder User’s Manual System Configuration instead of seeing normal video images. Snapshot mode is very useful for web attraction. In this case, configure the Snapshot interval to achieve better performance. Increasing the time interval between snapshots allows more users to use snapshot mode. Click on Save to validate changes. Network In network settings, there are 2 modes for network connections. One is LAN, and the other is PPPoE for xDSL connections.
VPort 2141 Video Encoder User’s Manual System Configuration Basic Network Settings Administrators may need to modify the network settings to connect to an existing network, since the subnet mask in some broadband services may differ from the default value of 255.255.255.0, and service providers may assign more specific network settings. Administrators should change the configuration to the settings given by the service provider.
VPort 2141 Video Encoder User’s Manual System Configuration Step 5: Check the email or FTP folder to get the IP address assigned to this xDSL connection by the ISP. NOTE The DDNS function provides administrators with the ability to associate a fixed URL to the VPort 2141. Using a fixed URL eliminates the need of checking the IP address assigned by the ISP. Please refer to the DDNS function description to learn more about it.
VPort 2141 Video Encoder User’s Manual System Configuration Two tools are available for administrators to link conveniently to the VPort 2141. The first tool is DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name System), a combination of DHCP, DNS, and client registration, all working together. DDNS allows administrators to alias the VPort’s dynamic IP address to a static hostname in any of the domains provided by the DDNS service providers listed on the VPort’s DDNS& UPnP configuration page.
VPort 2141 Video Encoder User’s Manual System Configuration Mail & FTP SMTP The VPort 2141 not only plays the role of server, but also actively connects to outside servers to send alarm messages or snapshots. If the administrator has set up some applications in either event mode or sequential mode, the VPort will send out snapshots once these conditions occur. 1.
VPort 2141 Video Encoder User’s Manual System Configuration FTP FTP can be used by the VPort 2141 to send out alarm messages and snapshots. To send the system log files described in the above paragraph by FTP, the SMTP server should be erased. 1. The Local FTP server port can be changed to a setting different from the default setting of 21. Administrators should have enough network knowledge to change the default port. 2.
VPort 2141 Video Encoder User’s Manual System Configuration The Accessible List allows you to add or remove “Legal” remote host IP addresses to prevent unauthorized access. Access to the VPort is controlled by IP address. That is, if a host’s IP address is in the accessible IP table, then the host will be allowed access to the VPort. Administrators can allow one of the following cases by setting this parameter.
VPort 2141 Video Encoder User’s Manual System Configuration Image setting Time stamp Checkmark the Time stamp checkbox to show a time stamp on the video images. The time stamp is captured from the VPort 2141’s on-board real-time clock. Text on Image Use this option to label all of the images. A maximum of 14 bytes (14 English characters) are allowed. Color, Default quality, Default size, Maximum frame rate The Color setting depends on the connected camera.
VPort 2141 Video Encoder User’s Manual System Configuration Camera Setting Camera type The default camera type for the VPort 2141 is Fixed camera, which means that it is a general camera without a motorized function. If you wish to select a PTZ camera, you also need to select the COM port that this PTZ camera is connected to, and the PTZ camera’s ID to activate it. Click on Save to validate the camera type.
VPort 2141 Video Encoder User’s Manual System Configuration Motion Detection Three areas of the image can be configured for the VMD (video motion detection) function. The VMD alarm will only be triggered when the VMD conditions in these 3 specific areas are met. Each area can be fine tuned to fit the environment for different VMD conditions by setting the Sensitivity and image change Percentage. 1. Sensitivity sets the measurable difference between two sequential images to indicate motion. 2.
VPort 2141 Video Encoder User’s Manual System Configuration ATTENTION The motion detection function is dependent on the environment. When the settings are configured to be very sensitive to motion, some triggered events might be false alarms, since there could be small differences between sequential images of the same scene. In addition, the motion detection alarm could be triggered by the flashing of florescent lights, shifting of shadows due to changes in the lighting conditions, etc.
VPort 2141 Video Encoder User’s Manual System Configuration Bandwidth Limit The bandwidth limit affects the transmission of video streams. Once a bandwidth limit is set, the video frame rate will change accordingly. Limiting the bandwidth is useful for balancing network utilization when multiple VPorts are installed on the same network. This method is more effective than just changing image quality, and is able to achieve better performance with adequate image size and quality.
VPort 2141 Video Encoder User’s Manual System Configuration PTZ Driver Since each PTZ camera has its own protocols for the PTZ functions, select the correct PTZ model under PTZ driver options. If the attached PTZ camera is not supported by the VPort, select Custom Camera to enter the proprietary commands for pan, tilt, zoom, and focus control. ATTENTION The VPort 2141 supports the following PTZ drivers and camera models: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.
