3System Information

3.1Overview of functions

The camera incorporates a network video server. Its primary function is to encode video and control data for transmission over an IP network. With its H.264 encoding, it is ideally suited for IP communication and for remote access to digital video recorders and IP systems. The use of existing networks means that integration with CCTV systems or local networks can be achieved quickly and easily. Video images from a single camera can be simultaneously received on several receivers.

3.1.1Progressive scan

The camera captures and processes progressively scanned images. When there is fast motion in a scene, progressively scanned images are generally sharper than interlaced images.

3.1.2Day/Night function

In night mode, the camera enhances low light viewing by switching the IR (infrared) filter out of the optical path and providing a monochrome image. The camera can switch from color to monochrome mode automatically by sensing the illumination level, manually via the alarm input, or remotely via a web browser.

3.1.3Quad-streaming

Quad-streaming enables the camera to deliver three H.264 streams (a HD stream, a downscaled resolution stream, and a HD I-frame only stream) together with an M-JPEG stream. These four streams facilitate bandwidth-efficient viewing and recording options as well as integration with third-party video management systems.
