|
Video System |
| Choose the media format that the IP camera should use: NTSC/60 Hz or |
|
| PAL/50 Hz. |
|
| If your IP camera receives a voltage with a 60Hz signal, choose |
|
| NTSC/60 Hz. If your IP camera receives a voltage with a 50 Hz signal, |
|
| choose PAL/50 Hz to prevent flickering in the video image. |
|

|
Preset |
| Choose one the following preset white balance modes from the Preset |
|

|
| The default setting is Normal. |
|
|
|
Brightness |
| Choose a positive value to increase the brightness of the video from the IP |
|
| camera or choose a negative value to decrease the brightness. For example, |
|
| if the IP camera is facing a bright light and the video appears too dark, you |
|
| can increase the brightness. |
|
| The default value is Normal, which is suitable for most conditions. |
|
|
|
Sharpness |
| Choose a positive value to increase the sharpness of the video from the IP |
|
| camera or choose a negative value to decrease the sharpness. |
|
| The default value is Normal, which is suitable for most conditions. |
|
|
|
Contrast |
| Choose a positive value to increase the contrast of the video from the IP |
|
| camera or choose a negative value to decrease the contrast. |
|
| The default value is Normal, which is suitable for most conditions. |
|
|
|
Saturation |
| Choose a positive value to increase the saturation of the video from the IP |
|
| camera or choose a negative value to decrease the saturation. |
|
| High saturation provides a vivid, intense color for a video image. With less |
|
| saturation, the video image appears more muted and gray. |
|
| The default value is Normal, which is suitable for most conditions. |
|
| |
Frame Repeat Count | Designates how video output from the IP camera displays. The IP camera | |
|
| generates two independent fields (odd and even) for each video capture, |
|
| which occur 60 times per second for NTSC or 50 times per second for PAL. |
|
| When Frame Repeat Count is set to 1, the IP camera combines one odd and |
|
| one even field to compose a video frame. When Frame Repeat Count is set |
|
| to 2, the IP camera uses one of the fields two times to compose a video frame. |
|
| A setting of 1 provides smoother video. It is designed for software that can |
|
| display interlaced video. |
|
| The default value is 2. |
