Configuring and Using the IP AutoDome

 

The VG4-200, VG4-300, and VG4-500i Series AutoDomes can be ordered with an optional IP

 

module that allows the AutoDome to transmit PTZ control commands and images over a TCP/

 

IP network. It also allows users to configure the AutoDome camera display settings, camera

 

operating settings, and to configure the network parameters.

 

The IP AutoDome incorporates a network video server in the IP module. The primary function

 

of the server is to encode video and control data for transmission over a TCP/IP network. With

 

its MPEG-4 encoding, it is ideally suited for IP communication and for remote access to digital

 

video recorders and multiplexers. The use of existing networks means that integration with

 

CCTV systems or local networks can be achieved quickly and easily. Video images from a sin-

 

gle camera can be simultaneously received on several receivers.

Overview of Features

 

The IP module adds the following functionality to an AutoDome system:

 

 

 

 

 

Function

Description

 

 

 

 

 

 

Video encoding

The camera uses the MPEG-4 compression standard and ensures that the

 

 

 

data rate remains low even with high image quality and can also be

 

 

 

adapted to local conditions within wide limits.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dual Streaming

Encodes dual data streams simultaneously according to two individually

 

 

 

customized profiles. This feature creates two (2) data streams per camera

 

 

 

that can serve different purposes. For example, one (1) data stream for

 

 

 

local recording and one (1) data stream optimized for transmission over

 

 

 

the Local Area Network (LAN).

 

 

 

 

 

 

Multicast

Enables simultaneous, real-time transmission to multiple receivers. The

 

 

 

network must implement the UDP and IGMP V2 protocols as a prerequi-

 

 

 

site for Multicasting.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Configuration

You can configure all camera settings from a Web browser on the local

 

 

 

network (Intranet) or on the Internet. You can also update the firmware,

 

 

 

load device configurations, store configuration settings, and copy these

 

 

 

settings from one camera to another.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Snapshots

Allows you to take and store individual video frames as JPEG images from

 

 

 

the Web browser interface.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Backup

You can save video images as a file on a computer’s hard drive from the

 

 

 

Web browser interface.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Audio

Allows you to set the gain level for the audio signal from the Line In 1,

 

 

 

Microphone, and the Line Out ports.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Record

Allows you to configure the recording options for the IP module. You can

 

 

 

record video from the Livepage to a hard drive or you can opt to store up

 

 

 

to 8 MB of video on the IP module.
