Valid values are even numbers 1024 through 65532.

 

 

 

Time to Live

 

Enter the number of hops, which specifies the number of network devices

 

 

that an audio/video stream can pass before arriving at its destination or being

 

 

dropped.

 

 

Valid values are 1 through 255.

 

 

 

Video Area

 

 

 

 

 

Video Standard

 

Choose the system for video transmission: NTSC or PAL.

 

 

The setting that you make affects each channel that is enabled.

 

 

 

Video Codec

 

Display only: Shows the codec for video transmission: H.264 for the primary

 

 

stream and MJPEG for the secondary stream.

 

 

Video Resolution

Choose the resolution for video transmission. The resolutions in this

 

 

drop-down list depend on the video standard that you selected.

 

 

You can also change the resolution for video transmission by using the Video

 

 

Resolution drop-down list in the Camera Video/Control window, as

 

 

described in Table 4-1.

 

 

Maximum Frame Rate

Choose the maximum frame rate of the video stream.

 

 

 

Video Quality

 

Choose an option for the video quality of the primary video stream from the

 

 

IP camera:

 

 

• Constant Bit Rate—Available for the primary stream only. Specifies

 

 

that the video stream is output at or close to the constant bit rate that you

 

 

choose. The default value is 4 Mbps. A higher bit rate provides better

 

 

video quality but consumes more bandwidth.

 

 

• Fixed Quality—Specifies that video is output at a fixed quality, which

 

 

ranges from Very High to Low. The bit rate may vary to maintain this

 

 

quality. The default fixed quality is Normal. A higher fixed quality

 

 

provides better video quality but consumes more bandwidth.

 

 

You can use these options to help manage bandwidth use in your network.

 

 

For example, if the IP camera is focused on an area with little movement,

 

 

such as an emergency exit, you can configure it with a low fixed quality.

 

 

Audio Setup Area

 

Note These options apply to the primary stream only.

 

 

 

Enable Audio

 

Check this check box if you if you want the IP camera to transmit and receive

 

 

audio.

 

 

Audio Compression

Choose the codec (G.711 A-Law, G.711 u-Law, or AAC) for audio that is

 

 

transmitted from the IP camera.

 

 

AAC provides highest quality audio and consumes the least bandwidth.

 

 

The default value is G.711 A-law.
