Q How fast is the video rate of the Network Camera?

A The MPEG4 codec engine can process up to 30 frames per second internally. However, the total performance is subject to many coefficients such as:

1.Network throughput,

2.Bandwidth share,

3.Number of users,

4.The complicated/detailed objects and movement in view,

5.The power of your PC or notebook computer that is responsible for displaying images.

In general, the transfer rate in a general local network environment can achieve over

200kilobytes per second and approximately 10 to 20 pictures per second from a regular environment.

Q How can I keep the Network Camera as private as possible?

A The Network Camera is designed for surveillance purposes and has many flexible interfaces. The user authentication and special confirmation in installation can keep the Network Camera from unauthorized access. You may also change the HTTP port to a non-public number. The demo account is good to separate guests from normal users and thus you can easily block the guests anytime. You can check the system log to examine any abnormal activities and trace the origins.

Q Why can I not access the Network Camera when I set up some options in the application?

A Since the Network Camera is a "network camera", any incorrect network settings will make it inaccessible. If this happens, restore the factory default settings following the procedures in Appendix A.

PT3114, PT3124 specifications

Vivotek PT3124 and PT3114 are two advanced IP camera models designed for surveillance applications, offering cutting-edge technology to enhance security. Both models deliver high-quality video streams combined with a range of robust features that make them suitable for various environments, from offices and retail spaces to public areas.

The Vivotek PT3124 is equipped with a 2-Megapixel CMOS sensor, providing crystal-clear video resolution up to 1920x1080. It features a powerful motorized zoom lens, allowing users to zoom in on distant subjects without losing detail. The camera also boasts pan and tilt capabilities, offering a full 360-degree horizontal rotation and a vertical tilt of up to 90 degrees. This makes it an ideal choice for monitoring large areas with just a single camera.

In contrast, the Vivotek PT3114, while offering similar build quality and design, focuses on delivering essential surveillance features with a slightly reduced performance. It still provides a high-definition video output but is geared more towards users who need reliable monitoring without the advanced zoom functionalities.

Both models incorporate Vivotek's WDR Pro (Wide Dynamic Range) technology, ensuring high-quality video in challenging lighting conditions. This is particularly useful for environments that experience significant variations in light, allowing users to capture clear images even against backlighting.

Additionally, both the PT3124 and PT3114 are designed with Smart IR technology, which enhances night vision capabilities. This allows for effective monitoring in complete darkness, ensuring that the cameras can capture clear images up to a range of 30 meters in low-light conditions.

In terms of connectivity, both models support Power over Ethernet (PoE), simplifying installation by allowing the camera to receive power and data through a single cable. They also support various video compression formats like H.265 and H.264, which helps to optimize bandwidth usage without compromising video quality.

The user-friendly web interface and mobile app support make it easy for users to monitor their surveillance feeds from anywhere at any time. With features such as motion detection and alerts, Vivotek PT3124 and PT3114 provide reliable and proactive security management.

In summary, Vivotek PT3124 and PT3114 combine advanced surveillance technology with user-friendly features, making them excellent choices for both commercial and residential security needs. Whether users require advanced functionalities or general monitoring, these models cater to diverse surveillance requirements effectively.
