6 | Using the AutoDome 800 Series | ||
|
| The AutoDome 800 Series transmits PTZ control commands and images over a TCP/IP | |
|
| network. It also allows users to configure the camera display settings, camera operating | |
|
| settings, and to configure the network parameters. | |
|
| The IP unit 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 | |
|
| H.264 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 | |
|
| single camera can be simultaneously received on several receivers. | |
|
| Refer to Section 9 BVIP Firmware Updates, page 115, for firmware upgrade instructions. | |
