Step 8: Video Software Settings
Video Software Settings for a CCTV Station
• Video Source, Input Standard and Input Format. Video Verification
uses the video source, input standard and input format configured on the
Workstations form of ID CredentialCenter’s/System Administration’s
Workstations folder. Consult the ID CredentialCenter/System
Administration User Guide on how to make those adjustments in the
Workstations folder.
• Video Colors and Video Sync Mode. Video Verification displays live
video using the color adjustments and sync mode configured in the
FPG3D32 application which shipped with your FlashPoint board. Consult
your FlashPoint User’s Manual on how to make those adjustments. (The
sync mode option is configured in the FPG3D32 application’s Advanced
Configuration window. When enabled it causes unstable video coming from
a VCR to stop jumping up and down and settle down into a stable picture,
though there will be a narrow strip of static across the bottom.)
Video Software Settings for a Capture Station
The Multimedia Capture window has its own set of Video Source, Input
Standard, Input Format, Color and Sync Mode settings completely separate from
the FPG3D32 application. To adjust the Multimedia Capture settings, refer to
Chapter 6: Setting Up & Configuring a Capture Station. More information is
available in the BadgeDesigner User Guide, the ID CredentialCenter User Guide
and the System Administration User Guide.
• Default Camera Settings. The following settings are for a normal office
environment. They may need to be changed based on several variables in the
capture environment (distance, lighting, backgrounds, wall color, etc.).
Consult your camera user guide for information about manual overrides to
the CCP601 camera. For most applications, the camera comes preset from
the factory. If you want to change the factory settings, you can purchase the
CON-500 CCP Camera Controller Programming Unit from BEST.
It is recommended that you use the EHK-K42U-A (Professional Continuous
Lighting Kit) if you want the best quality capture lighting. For more
information, refer to Chapter 6: Setting Up & Configuring a Capture Station
on page 79.
• Multimedia Capture Settings. In the Multimedia Capture module of the ID
CredentialCenter, System Administration and BadgeDesigner applications,
the following settings are made at the factory. If you have not pressed the
save user defaults button, the following settings default to values suitable for
the CCP601 camera.
