2. Installation 2.1 Install camera 1) Assemble the mounting tripod (supplied), used when mounting the camera to a wall bracket, onto camera with supplied screws. 2) Install the wall bracket at the installation location according to the instructions supplied with the wall bracket. 3) Install the camera onto the wall bracket. 2.2 Assign IP address The default setting of the camera is set “DHCP” to ON.
3) Select the “Change IP Address” button. The message “Do you want to change IP address?” will display; select “Yes” from the pop-up window. 4) Check the Type as Static or DHCP from the list. When you double click the camera within the list, the default web browser (Internet Explorer or compatible equivalent) will open and automatically connect to the camera. The V992-N can be accessed with most standard operating systems and browsers. The recommended browser is Internet Explorer® 7 and above for Windows®.
When you first access the camera you will be asked to download and install an Active X control from the camera to display a Live image. NOTE: The layout of the live view page in the camera may have been customized to meet specific requirements. Consequently, some of the examples and functions featured here may differ from those displayed on your own Live View page. 2.4 Accessing the camera from the Internet Once installed, the camera is accessible on the local network (LAN).

3.1 Video Stream Types Motion JPEG This format uses standard JPEG images in the video stream. These images are then displayed and updated at a rate sufficient to create a stream that shows constantly updated motion. The Motion JPEG stream uses a considerable amount of bandwidth, but it also provides excellent image quality and access to every individual image contained in the stream. H.
may cause congestion. Although there is a maximum of 10 unicast viewers, note that all multicast users combined count as 1 unicast viewer. RTP/RTSP This unicast method is RTP tunneled over RTSP. This could be used to exploit the fact that it is relatively simple to configure firewalls to allow RTSP traffic. 4. Setup The V992-N is configured from the Setup link, which is available on the top left hand side in the web interface.
4.1.1 Installation Setup Installation Mode allows use of the analog BNC output from the camera to connect the camera NTSC, PAL: Analog Output is enabled. OFF: Analog output will be disabled. NOTE: You must turn Installation Mode OFF to utilize the megapixel features of the camera. Additionally, all installation setup must be done prior to the camera being used with a VMS, including ViconNet; the VMS forces the Installation Mode to OFF. 4.
bandwidth usage to be controlled. CBR (Constant Bit Rate) is used to achieve a specific bit rate by varying the quality of the H.264 stream. While using VBR (Variable Bit Rate), the quality of the video stream is kept as constant as possible, at the cost of a varying bit rate. Motion JPEG This format uses standard JPEG still images in the video stream. These images then are displayed and updated at a rate sufficient to create a stream that shows constantly updated motion.

4.4.FTP 4.4.1 Config Server Configuration Allows transmission of still images to remote sites using the FTP server. Set the information for FTP transmission by inserting the IP address, Port, Username and Password of the remote FTP Server. 4.4.2 Event Event FTP Sending You can configure the camera to upload still images to FTP server based on event such as Motion detection. Directory The name of the directory where the still images will be stored when an Event occurs.
File Prefix You may add a file name prefix to the stored image file name. Example: If the file prefix is ‘MVD’, the still image would be saved as MVD_date_time.jpg. FTP Send Mapping Choose which types of events will be recorded to the FTP server by checking the desired event. Effective Period This parameter lets you decide whether to save all the events that are happening at all hours of the day, or only the events that occur within during specific times of the day.
