System Information  
3.1  
Overview of functions  
The camera incorporates a network video server. Its primary  
function is to encode video and control data for transmission  
over an IP network. With its H.264 encoding, it is ideally suited  
for IP communication and for remote access to digital video  
recorders and IP systems. 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.  
3.1.1  
3.1.2  
Progressive scan  
The camera captures and processes progressively scanned  
images. When there is fast motion in a scene, progressively  
scanned images are generally sharper than interlaced images.  
True Day/Night function  
In night mode, the camera enhances low light viewing by  
switching the IR (infrared) filter out of the optical path and  
providing a monochrome image. The camera can switch from  
color to monochrome mode automatically by sensing the  
illumination level, manually via the alarm input, or remotely via a  
web browser.  
3.1.3  
3.1.4  
Multiple streams  
Multiple streams enable the camera to deliver several H.264  
streams together with an M-JPEG stream. These streams  
facilitate bandwidth-efficient viewing and recording options as  
well as integration with third-party video management systems.  
ONVIF (Open Network Video Interface Forum)  
The camera complies to the ONVIF standard which means that  
it is easier to install and integrate into larger systems. The  
ONVIF standard is a global standard for the interface of network  
video products.

Audio  
Two-way duplex audio is available in the unit for live voice  
communications or audio recording.  
Alarm I/O  
The alarm input can be used to control the functionality of the  
unit. An alarm output can control external devices.  
Tamper detection and motion detection  
The camera offers a wide range of configuration options for  
alarm signaling in the event of tampering with the camera. A  
Motion+ algorithm for detecting movement in the video image is  
included.  
3.1.8  
Video encoding  
The camera uses the H.264 compression standards. Thanks to  
efficient encoding, the data rate remains low even with high  
image quality and can also be adapted to local conditions  
within wide limits.  
3.1.9  
Multicast  
In suitably configured networks, the multicast function enables  
simultaneous, real time transmission to multiple receivers. The  
prerequisite for this is that the UDP and IGMP V2/V3 protocols  
are implemented on the network.  
3.1.10  
3.1.11  
Power-over-Ethernet  
Power for the camera can be supplied via a Power-over-  
Ethernet compliant network cable connection. With this  
configuration, only a single cable connection is required to  
view, power, and control the camera.  
Encryption  
The unit offers a variety of options for protection against  
unauthorized reading. Web browser connections can be  
protected using HTTPS. Protect the control channels via the  
SSL encryption protocol. With an additional license, the user  
data itself can be encrypted.

Camera configuration  
The camera normally provides an optimal picture without the  
need for further adjustments. Configuration of the camera is  
carried out via the network using a web browser.  
6.1  
6.2  
User modes  
The camera has six user modes. These are selected via the web  
browser interface. The default mode is Outdoor.  
Day/Night switching  
The camera is equipped with a motorized IR filter. The  
mechanical IR filter is taken out of the optical path in low-light  
applications.  
The IR filter is controlled either:  
via an alarm input, or  
automatically, based on the observed light levels.  
If Auto switching mode is selected, the camera automatically  
switches the filter depending on the observed light level. The  
switching level is programmable.  
Note:  
When the auto mode is selected and the switching level is set  
to -15, certain borderline scene lighting conditions can cause  
the camera to switch back and forth between day and night  
modes. Set a different switching level to avoid this.

to a PC via a crossed network cable and configure the two  
parameters, Identity and Password. Only after these have been  
configured can communication with the camera via the network  
occur.

Maintenance  
9.1  
Testing the network connection  
The ping command can be used to check the connection  
between two IP addresses. This allows testing whether a device  
is active in the network.  
1. Open the DOS command prompt.  
2. Type ping followed by the IP address of the device.  
If the device is found, the response appears as " Reply from ... ",  
followed by the number of bytes sent and the transmission time  
in milliseconds. Otherwise, the device cannot be accessed via  
the network. This might be because:  
The device is not properly connected to the network.  
Check the cable connections in this case.  
The device is not correctly integrated into the network.  
Check the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address.  
9.2  
Repairs  
CAUTION!  
Never open the casing of the unit. The unit does not contain any  
user serviceable parts. Ensure that all maintenance or repair  
work is performed only by qualified personnel (electrical  
engineering or network technology specialists). In case of  
doubt, contact your dealer's technical service center.  
9.2.1  
Transfer and disposal  
The camera should only be passed on together with this  
installation guide. The unit contains environmentally hazardous  
materials that must be disposed of according to law. Defective  
or superfluous devices and parts should be disposed of  
professionally or taken to your local collection point for  
hazardous materials.
