Image Header - Check the relevant box to include the camera name, date and/or time in image headers.
Color Settings - Choose to view the camera images in black & white or in color. Black & white generates smaller file sizes and the contrast is usually higher than when using color.
Image Resolution - Select Low, Normal or High resolution. High resolution will reduce the frame rate, due to the larger file sizes involved. The exact resolutions are as follows;
•QCIF = 176 x 112 (NTSC), 176 x 144 (PAL) - Low resolution
•CIF = 352 x 240 (NTSC), 352 x 288 (PAL) - Normal resolution
•4CIF = 704 x 480 (NTSC), 704 x 576 (PAL) - High resolution
Image Compression - Select the level of compression for your images. Lower compression optimizes picture quality, but generates larger image file sizes.
Offset Adjustment - Enter values in these fields to change the horizontal and vertical synchronization for the image. This can be used to eliminate any black border surrounding the image.
Note: The settings for Color, Resolution and Compression will all affect the size of the generated files. This will also affect the length of time the recordings are stored for.
