Using the VB Administration Tools is a convenient way to set the view restrictions (→ P. 70).

Note

●If multiple cameras are connected to the VB150, the bundled viewer software (→ P.19) can be used to switch between video images. However, the MV2.1/LE software (sold separately P.20) allows the images to be displayed concurrently. When this software is used, set “Video Input” to “Multiple”. The frame rate for each camera is between 3 and 5 fps.

Common Settings

"Main Camera"

Sets the camera selected when the VB150 starts up.

"Video Signal"

Select NTSC or PAL. The default setting is NTSC.

"Video Input" (See "Note")

Select Single or Multiple. If Multiple is selected when more than one camera is connected to the VB150, multiple camera video images can be displayed at the same time.

"Baud rate of camera control port CC1/CC2" For CC1 and CC2, select the same baud rate as that set on the camera.

On the VC-C4/VC-C4R/NU-700, the default setting is 9600.There is basically no need to change this.

"Return to Home Position when nobody has control privileges"

The camera is moved to its home position if there is no request for control privileges. (→ P.41)

Settings for cameras 1 to 4

The camera1 to 4 correspond to cameras which are connected to V1 to V4. (→ P.22)

"Use this Camera"

When you tick this option, this camera is used and the settings below are enabled.

"Camera Name"

Used in the camera selection bar on the viewers (→ P.6). This setting is required.

"Wide Converter"

Always select "Used" when a wide-angle converter (sold separately for VC-C4) is mounted on the camera.

"Video Capture Size"

The available settings are 640x240, 320x240 and 160x120.

"Video Quality"

Enter a value between 1 and 99. The greater the value, the better the quality. However, since picture data will also be larger, higher-quality pictures may lower the frame rate.
