Product overview
Multistream high definition
The camera has quad-stream capability for simultaneous streaming of H.264/H.264 or H.264/
MJPEG. Multiple combinations of resolution and frame rate can be configured to satisfy different live viewing and recording scenarios. At 60 fps, full-HD 1080p streaming with a VGA second stream is possible.
Day/Night, BLC, WDR and image stabiliser
The HSD820v2H3-E provides automatic day/night functionality, for use in low light situations.
Backlight compensation (BLC) enhances image visibility in difficult lighting situations. This ensures quality pictures at all times. Wide dynamic range solves the problem of overlit images by taking the better of two pictures with different exposure settings (shutter WDR). The
HSD820v2H3-E is equipped with an electronic image stabiliser to provide stable pictures even at the highest zoom ratio.
Open standards
Multiple options are available to easily integrate the HSD820v2H3-E to a video management system. In support of open standards, the camera is compliant with the ONVIF Profile S specification.
Audio, alarm, and analogue video output
By combining streaming video with duplex audio and alarm over IP, the HSD820v2H3-E provides all the interfaces necessary for any IP CCTV application. By offering analogue video out, the HSD820v2H3-E is a hybrid solution that can provide video for a local public view monitor or DVR.
Privacy masks
Privacy masks cover sections of the image. This feature is often requested for such situations as city centre surveillance and point of sale keypads. The HSD820v2H3-E not only supports solid colour masks but also offers three levels of mosaic masking. A mosaic mask applies a blocking pattern over the video content and is - compared to solid colour masks - more friendly to the human eye.
Fiber option
In addition to the RJ-45 interface, an SFP slot comes standard with the HSD820v2H3-E for direct connection of fiber to the camera. The XSNet™ range of SFP modules, with options for both single mode and multimode is available.

HTTP Authentication Setting
HTTP Authentication allows secured connections between the IP camera and web browsers by enforcing access controls to web resources. When users attempt to access the camera from a browser, they are prompted for a valid user name and password before they can log on to the camera. The camera settings and live streaming information are protected from snooping by identifying whether a user is authorised to access the camera.
Two types of authentication are available.
● Basic
This type provides basic protection against unauthorised access. It is supported by most browsers. Passwords are sent over the network in clear text. If intercepted they can be reused by unauthorised users. Select this type only if you are using an SSL connection or a dedicated line.
● Digest
This type is a more secure option. It encrypts the password before sending it over the network.
Note: Users must click Save to apply the setting.
Streaming Authentication Setting
This function is disabled by default. Users can freely open an RTSP connection to the
HSD820v2H3-E and extract a video stream. This may be undesirable from a security perspective. Therefore, it is possible to restrict access to the camera to users with a valid account.
Three modes are available.
● Disable
If disable mode is selected, there is no security to protect against unauthorised access.
Users are not asked to provide a user name and password for authentication.
● Basic
This type provides basic protection against unauthorised access. It is supported by most browsers. Passwords are sent over the network as plain text. If intercepted they can be reused by unauthorised users. Select this type only if you are using an SSL connection or a dedicated line.

Web Server port
The HTTP port can be any port other than the default port, 80. If the port is changed, the user must be notified of the change for connections to be successful.
For example, if the administrator changes the HTTP port of a camera with an IP address of
192.168.0.100 from 80 to 8080, the user must type in the address http://
192.168.0.100:8080 instead of http://192.168.0.100.
RTSP port
The RTSP port can be any port other than the default port, 554. If the port is changed, the user must be notified of the change for connections to be successful. The port number may range from 1024 to 65535.
For example, if the administrator changes the RTSP port of a camera with an IP address of
192.168.0.100 from 554 to 8080, the user must type in the address rtsp://
192.168.0.100:8080 instead of rtsp://192.168.0.100.
MJPEG over HTTP port
The HTTP port that streams MJPEG can be any port other than the default port, 8008. If the port is changed, the user must be notified of the change for connections to be successful. The port number may range from 1024 to 65535.
For example, if the administrator changes the MJPEG over HTTP port of a camera with an IP address of 192.168.0.100 from 8008 to 8080, the user must type in the address http://
192.168.0.100:8080 instead of http://192.168.0.100.
HTTPS port
The HTTPS port can be any port other than the default port, 443. If the port is changed, the user must be notified of the change for connections to be successful. The port number may range from 1024 to 65535.
For example, if the administrator changes the HTTPS port of a camera with an IP address of
192.168.0.100 from 443 to 650, the user must type in the address https://
192.168.0.100:650 instead of https://192.168.0.100.
Note: To avoid network conflicts, make sure that you use a unique port number for each of

QoS
System > Network > QoS
DiffServ and QoS
Differentiated Services (DiffServ, or DS) is a method for adding Quality of Service (QoS) to IP networks. In routed networks, critical network traffic such as video and audio streams, which require a relatively uninterrupted flow of data, can get blocked due to other traffic. DiffServ can be used to classify network traffic and give precedence - that is, low-latency, guaranteed service, to high-priority traffic, while offering best-effort service to non-critical traffic such as file transfers or Web traffic.
Each stream has a DSCP (Differentiated Services Code Point) field in the IP header. Routers will identify the network service type in the DSCP field and provide the appropriate level of service. Low-latency service can be realised, for example, through priority queuing, bandwidth allocation, or by assigning dedicated routes.
DSCP settings
The DSCP value range is from 0 to 63. The default DSCP value is 0, which means DSCP is disabled. The IP camera uses the following QoS Classes: Video, Audio, and Management.
Video DSCP
The class consists of applications such as MJPEG over HTTP, RTP/RTSP, and RTSP/HTTP.
Audio DSCP
This setting is available for IP cameras that support audio.
Management DSCP
The class consists of HTTP traffic: Web browsing.

Alarm trigger actions
System > Events > Application > Triggered action
The actions detailed in this section can be set to be triggered when an alarm occurs. Make sure that the SMTP, FTP, and/or HTTP configuration is complete before you configure the triggered actions for an alarm. For more information, see sections Mail, FTP, and/or HTTP.
Enable alarm output
The HSD820v2H3-E provides two alarm outputs. They can be enabled by selecting Enable
alarm output 1 and Enable alarm output 2.
Note: The output state is determined by any combination of the alarm inputs (digital input
and motion detection). The alarm inputs can be individually enabled to drive the output, provided the alarms themselves are already enabled. The enabled alarms are combined by a logical OR to activate the output. The output type is therefore the same for all enabled alarms. An API command (from a VMS, for example) can override the current output state to inactive until the next enabled alarm is triggered, or it can also set the output state to active.
Send message by FTP
A message is sent to the FTP site, as configured on the FTP page, when an alarm is triggered.
For information on how to configure messages to be sent to an FTP site, see section FTP.
Upload image by FTP
When an alarm is triggered, a specified number of pre- and post-trigger buffer frames are sent to the configured FTP server. The Pre-trigger buffer function allows users to check what happened to cause the trigger.
47
System settings
Note: Normally, the range of the Pre-trigger buffer is 1-20 frames. This range will change
accordingly if the MJPEG frame rate on the Video frame rate page is 6 or slower.
With the Post-trigger function, users can set a certain amount of images to be uploaded after the triggering of the alarm input.
Important: Uploading images by FTP or e-mail is only possible if MJPEG output is
configured. If only H.264 streaming is enabled, no images will be sent.
Continue image upload
If selected you can choose to upload the triggered images for a certain time or to keep uploading until the trigger is off.
● Upload for n sec
The number of frames per second (fps) selected in the Image Frequence list is sent to the
FTP Server for the number of seconds specified in the Upload for n sec box. The range is 1 to 99999 seconds.
● Upload during trigger active
The number of frames per second (fps) selected in the Image Frequence list is sent to the
FTP Server until the trigger is no longer active. The range is 1 to 15 frames.
PTZ function
Assign a camera function - Preset, Sequence, Autopan, or Cruise - and specify a Preset Point/
Sequence Line/Autopan Path/Cruise Line for the camera to perform at an alarm occurrence.
For a description of these functions, see chapter PTZ&IMAGE.
If the selected function is Preset, the dwell time (1-256 sec.) must be specified in the Dwell
time box. When the alarm is triggered, the camera will go to the selected Preset Point and stay there for the user-defined period of time. As for other function modes, the camera will keep executing the specified function. To stop this action, simply change the camera status.
Note: The dwell time can only be adjusted when Preset is selected as the alarm action.
When the dwell time has expired, the camera will go back to its trigger position and recheck the alarm pin status.
Record video clip
Using the options on the Record to list, you can have an alarm-triggered recording saved to your microSD card or NAS. The Pre-trigger buffer function allows you to check what occurrence caused the trigger. The Pre-trigger buffer time range is from 1 to 3 seconds.
You can choose from the following actions:
● Upload for n sec
The image stream is recorded for the number of seconds (setting range from 1 to 99999 seconds) specified in the Upload for n sec text box with a pre-trigger buffer of the number of seconds specified in the Pre-trigger buffer text box.
● Upload during trigger active
The image stream is recorded with a pre-trigger buffer of the number of seconds specified in the Pre-trigger buffer text box until the trigger is no longer active.
Note: Make sure that local recording (with the microSD card) or remote recording (with
NAS) is activated (on the Recording page) so that this function can be implemented.
Send message by E-mail

SD Card
System > Storage management > SD Card
You can implement local recording using a microSD/SDHC card up to 64 GB. On the Storage
Management page, administrators can view capacity information of the microSD/SDHC card and a recording list with all the recording files that are saved on the memory card.
Administrators can also format the SD card and implement automatic recording cleanup.
Note: Format the microSD/SDHC card when using it for the first time. Formatting is also
required when a memory card already used on one camera is transferred to another camera with a different software platform.
Important: We advise to use high-grade, highly-durable SD cards. Note that SD cards are
limited to the number of write cycles ranging from 1000 (off-the-shelf high-grade card MLC or TLC NAND) to 100.000 (4 GB industrial SLC NAND). Intensive usage will eventually wear out the card. The number of write cycles times the capacity of the SD card gives you the total amount of data that can be written to the card in its life time. A 32 GB microSDHC with
2000 write cycles, for example, can write 64 TB before it should be replaced.

On the Video OCX Protocol page, users can select a protocol for streaming media over the network to the webpages via the Viewer application.
Protocol Description
RTP over UDP
RTP over RTSP (TCP) Real-Time Transport Protocol, using TCP transport, guarantees that data is delivered and that no packets are dropped, but some network delay may occur.
RTSP over HTTP
Real-Time Transport Protocol, using UDP transport, lessens network delay and is required for two-way audio streams.
A standard solution to help RTSP work through firewalls and Web proxies, so that viewers behind a firewall can access RTSP streams.
MJPEG over HTTP
Multicast mode
Consecutive JPEG images are sent individually over HTTP.
Multicast streaming reduces bandwidth usage for streams being transmitted to multiple clients.

Camera - Misc1
PTZ&IMAGE > Cam - Misc1
On the Camera - Miscellaneous Setups Menu 1 (Misc1) page, users can set various camera parameters including Backlight Compensation, Sharpness, Exposure Compensation, Image
Flip, Digital Zoom, Speed by Zoom, and Day/Night.
BLC
Backlight Compensation (BLC) enhances the visibility of objects in the foreground of an image when there is a bright light in the background.
Sharpness
The sharpness value controls the clarity of detail perceived in an image. A higher sharpness value may enhance the edges of objects and produce a clearer image. A lower sharpness value can result in a more obscure image. The sharpness value is adjustable from 1 to 15.
ExpComp
Exposure Compensation (ExpComp) allows the user to adjust the exposure to compensate for unusual or problematic lighting conditions that could result in less-than-optimal images. The function can also be used to create intentional underexposure or overexposure. ExpComp values range from 1 to 15.
Flip
Users can track an object continuously as it passes under the dome camera by setting Flip to
Mechanical (M.E.) mode or Image mode.
Note: Flip setting is controlled manually only. If a Preset Position or a point for an other
function such as Sequence, is set to a position that can only be reached through FLIP motion, that position cannot be reached anymore when the Flip function is turned off.
M.E. mode is a standard mechanical operation. As the dome camera tilts to the maximum angle, it will pan 180°, and then continue tilting to keep tracking objects.
92
PTZ&IMAGE
Note: To make the dome camera tilt between a specific range, such as -10° to +100° or
-10° ~ +190°, go to the Tilt Range page to set the tilt angle range. Otherwise, the dome camera will tilt 90° as the default setting.
The Image mode (digital image flip mode) enables users to keep tracking the objects seamlessly. In this mode, hardly any delay occurs compared with that in the M.E. mode.
Digital zoom
With digital zoom set to On, it is possible to zoom in further on the video when the lens is fully zoomed in using optical zoom.
Speed by zoom
When enabled, the pan/tilt speed is adjusted by an internal algorithm when zooming automatically. The larger the zoom ratio, the lower the rotation speed.
Day/Night function
With the IR cut filter, the camera can still catch clear images at night or in low-light conditions. In daylight, the IR cut filter blocks infrared light for good colour reproduction; at night, the IR cut filter is removed to also use infrared light and the displayed images will be in black and white.
● Auto
The camera decides when to remove the IR cut filter and switch to monochrome according to the image brightness level.
● Night
The camera removes the IR-cut filter and switches to monochrome.
● Day
The IR cut filter is returned and the image is in colour. In a dark environment this gives darker pictures because infrared light is not used. Colour reproduction will be noisy because the camera will increase gain.

Camera - Misc2
PTZ&IMAGE > Camera - Misc2
On the Camera - Miscellaneous Setups Menu 2 (Misc2) page, users can set various camera parameters.
WDR
To enhance video display, the wide dynamic range (WDR) function solves high contrast or changing light issues by taking the best of two pictures with different exposure settings. WDR is especially effective in solving indoor and outdoor contrast issues. The user can enable or disable the WDR function, according to the application.
Inverse
With the Inverse function, the video in the camera preview is inverted horizontally and vertically - that is, the images are rotated 180°.
Autocalibration
When the dome camera's position is moved during installation or maintenance, the relative distance between the original set point and the check point may change. The autocalibration function can detect this change and reset the point back to the original position. Options: Off,
On, Day of week.
● Off: Autocalibration is disabled.
● On: If the camera is out of calibration when it passes the calibration point, it will recalibrate.
● Day of week: Lets you set day(s) and time for possible recalibration.

PTZ&IMAGE
2DNR
With the 2D Noise Reduction function, the processor analyses pixel by pixel and frame by frame to eliminate environmental noise signal so that a high quality image can be produced
(at the expense of some sharpness) even in low light conditions.
3DNR
In addition to 2D Noise Reduction, the HSD820v2H3-E also includes 3DNR which generates enhanced noise reduction.
Stabilizer
The HSD820v2H3-E has a built-in image stabiliser to prevent vibrations from disrupting a camera view or footage, such as those caused by wind in pole-mount installations. Enable this function to provide stable pictures even at the highest zoom ratio.
OSD and Set Pan Zero
The camera's direction, azimuth, and elevation can be displayed on screen. To use this feature, you must first align the camera to the north and assign the pan zero position to the camera.
