AXIS 212 PTZ - Configuration

Video and Image settings

Image Appearance

Use these settings to change the image as required. The video image can be fine-tuned by adjusting the color level, the brightness and the sharpness.

The configuration of the video image will affect the camera’s overall performance, depending on how it is used and on the available bandwidth. Setting higher resolution and lower compression improves video image quality, but increases the amount of bandwidth used. Please see the online help for further information on these settings.

Text Overlay Settings

Use these settings to include a text, date and time overlay. The text, date and time overlay is included on one line at the top or bottom of the video image.

Video Stream

Define the maximum video stream time per session in seconds, minutes or hours. When the set time has expired, a new stream can be started by refreshing the page in the browser. For unlimited video stream time, select the Unlimited radio button. Note that the maximum video stream time does not apply to clients connecting via multicast.

Text, date and time overlay

The frame rate allowed to each viewer can also be limited, to reduce bandwidth usage. To allow the highest available frame rate, select the Unlimited radio button.

For a preview of the image before saving, click Test. When satisfied with the settings, click Save. Please note that the preview image will be in JPEG format, even though the settings are valid both for Motion JPEG and MPEG-4.
