cannot exceed the number of zones in the grid (displayed in the lower left
corner of Motion Settings).
Save to
A lower level Save to menu allows to specify the directory path for video archives and for snapshot
images. Note that while the name of archival directory should be the same for all cameras, it is
possible to specify different Hard Drives for each camera.
Advanced
“Don’t update sensor window” is an option
that determines how the changes to the
image size are applied: at a software level or
in hardware (the image sensor). Enabling
this option helps to avoid conflicts when
multiple users are viewing the same camera
(each will be able to set different image
size). Alternatively, disabling this option
allows to increase the camera frame rate due
to a smaller image size.
“Use DirectX if possible” is an option to use
DirectX functions that utilize graphics card
hardware to display images instead of using
the software. This reduces the load on the
CPU. The drop-down list “DirectX size”
provides options for the graphics area size
supported by DirectX.
“Auto – Startup” is an option to
automatically restart the CBC Video System
with the earlier settings after it was stopped.
“RealTime if folded” is an option to
continue running the CBC Video System
application at the top priority level in the
Windows Task Manager after the
application was minimized and placed onto
the system tray of the Windows task bar.
“Show motion” is an option to mark the
areas of the image where motion was
detected.
“Use double packets” is an option to use
data packets with 2904 bytes instead of the
regular 1450 bytes for image transmission.
This allows to increase image transmission
bandwidth, but may lead to a less stable
performance on overloaded networks.
“Warning on disconnect” is an option to
display a red screen warning in place of live
video that has been disconnected or
temporarily lost. An alternative (when
disabled) is to display the last captured
frame.
“Static ARP” is an option to enable a static
link between the camera’s MAC address and
its IP address. An alternative is a dynamic
ARP that is not supported by some of the
older models of the CBC cameras.
