Video Quality Caution

FRAME RATE NOTICE REGARDING USER-SELECTED OPTIONS

Pelco, Inc. systems are capable of providing high quality video for both live viewing and playback. However, the systems can be used in lower quality modes, which can degrade picture quality, to allow for a slower rate of data transfer and to reduce the amount of video data stored. The picture quality can be degraded by either lowering the resolution, reducing the picture rate, or both. A picture degraded by having a reduced resolution may result in an image that is less clear or even indiscernible. A picture degraded by reducing the picture rate has fewer frames per second, which can result in images that appear to jump or move more quickly than normal during playback. Lower frame rates may result in a key event not being recorded by the system.

Judgment as to the suitability of the products for users’ purposes is solely the users’ responsibility. Users should refer to the operation manuals for cautionary statements regarding user selected options and how they might affect video quality. Users shall determine the suitability of the products for their own intended application, picture rate and picture quality. The video analytic behaviors provide a large spectrum of settings that allow the behaviors to be used in a variety of applications. Selection of appropriate settings for proper detection in user applications is the sole responsibility of users. This equipment is intended to assist users in identifying situations of interest to users. Users have the sole responsibility of determining the appropriate response. In the event users intend to use the video for evidentiary purposes in a judicial proceeding or otherwise, users should consult with their attorney regarding any particular requirements for such use.
