A/V STREAMS TAB
Use the A/V Streams tab to configure the video and audio streams for the camera. The A/V Streams tab
includes a Video Presets page, a Video Configuration page, and an Audio Configuration page.
Video Presets: The Video Preset page includes three fully-configured video presets, which include
primary and secondary video stream settings for easy setup. These presets may also be used as a starting
point for a custom video configuration. These preset configurations vary depending on camera model.
Video Configuration: The Video Configuration page allows you to customize the compression, resolution,
image rate, and bit rate of the video streams. The default names for the streams are Primary Stream and
Secondary Stream. Although each stream can be configured independently, the settings of one stream can
limit the options available to the other stream, depending on the processing power used.
NOTE: Always configure the primary stream before the secondary stream. The primary stream should
always be the most resource-intensive of the streams.
Audio Configuration: The Audio Configuration page allows you to setup the internal audio device or an
external audio device. The default setting for Audio is disabled, which means that no audio is transmitted
from the camera. When enabled, audio is transmitted from the camera to the PC. Based on your system
configuration, images and audio may not be synchronized.
NOTES:
• Improper use of audio/visual recording equipment may subject you to civil and criminal penalties.
Applicable laws regarding the use of such capabilities vary between jurisdictions and may require,
among other things, express written consent from the recorded subjects. You are solely responsible
for insuring strict compliance with such laws and for strict adherence to any/all rights of privacy and
personalty.
• Not all camera models are equipped with an internal audio device. Refer to the specifications for your
camera model for information.
USERS AND GROUPS TAB
Users: Defines the permissions assigned to individuals logged on to the camera. Use this feature to
create, modify, or delete user accounts.
NOTE: The only defined user that cannot be deleted is admin; however, the administrator password can
be changed. For security purposes, it is important that you change your password after you log on to the
device for the first time.
Groups: Defines the permissions assigned to users within a group. Use this setting to create, modify, and
delete groups and permissions. Multiple permissions can be assigned to each group.
General Settings: Changes the way the camera manages the users and groups settings. These settings
can be managed on a camera-to-camera basis or by using a centralized server to apply changes to multiple
cameras.
EVENTS TAB
Sources: Defines the camera functions that are automatically triggered by an event source. The camera
supports alarm, system, and timer event sources.
Handlers: Defines the actions that a camera takes when an event occurs. The camera supports four event
handlers: Send Email, Write JPEG to SD Card, Upload JPEG to FTP Server, and Open/Close Relay.
