Video and motion detection, Adjust image settings

Administrators should notice that the basic network settings including IP address, subnet mask, default router and DNS servers will be cleared when the network interface is switched to the other between Ethernet and modem.

Video and motion detection

Adjust image settings

"Time stamp" and "Text on image" will be enclosed in image for reference. The timestamp is captured from date and time of Network Camera that is maintained by an on-board real-time clock. "Color" setting is independent of the connected camera and “B/W” option can speed up the encoder a little. “Default size” option here will be the default size of video window when users first connect to Network Camera. “Default quality” option here will be the default quality when users first connect to Network

Camera. To adjust image settings for best visual quality, press and a motion picture window will pop up for your reference. There are four fields including "Brightness", "Contrast", "Hue" and "Saturation" for video compensation. Each field has eleven levels ranged from -5 to +5. While adjusting, administrators can click on to check prior to the setting in memory. If the adjustment is not good,

administrators can click on to restore the original settings without change. After

configuration done, click on to close this window. If parameters are changed without saving, they will be used until the next system startup.

Configure motion detection

The channel can have its own settings of motion detection independently. The settings including “Object size” and “Sensitivity” allow administrators fine tune to fit into the environment. The “Object size” decides the space ratio of motioned objects over the monitored screen. The “Sensitivity” sets the measurable difference between two sequential images that would indicate motion. The larger object size and lower sensitivity will make Network Camera ignore small variations in images. While the motion amplitude of some object in the monitored screen is over the settings, a white M in red background will indicate at the upper-right corner of the window.

Motion detection is provided as reference because it is very environment-dependent. Especially working by the very sensitive settings, some triggered events may be considered as false alarms though there is tiny difference happening indeed. It can be affected by florescent light flashing, shadow shifting, and so on.

IP2112, IP2122 specifications

Vivotek has established itself as a notable player in the realm of IP surveillance cameras, and the IP2122 and IP2112 models are prime examples of their dedication to quality and performance.
