VIDEO QUALITY CAUTION

FRAME RATE NOTICE REGARDING USER-SELECTED OPTIONS

Pelco systems are capable of providing high quality video for both live viewing and playback. However, the systems can be used in lower quality modes, which can degrade picture quality, to allow for a slower rate of data transfer and to reduce the amount of video data stored. The picture quality can be degraded by either lowering the resolution, reducing the picture rate, or both. A picture degraded by having a reduced resolution may result in an image that is less clear or even indiscernible. A picture degraded by reducing the picture rate has fewer frames per second, which can result in images that appear to jump or move more quickly than normal during playback. Lower frame rates may result in a key event not being recorded by the system.

Judgment as to the suitability of the products for users’ purposes is solely the users’ responsibility. Users shall determine the suitability of the products for their own intended application, picture rate and picture quality. In the event users intend to use the video for evidentiary purposes in a judicial proceeding or otherwise, users should consult with their attorney regarding any particular requirements for such use.

Introduction

The Sarix ® IXS0LW is a network-based camera designed with SureVision technology. SureVision includes advanced low-light capability, wide dynamic range (WDR), and anti-bloom technology. The camera also includes a built-in, Web-based viewer for live streaming to a standard Web browser (Microsoft ® Internet Explorer ® or Mozilla ® Firefox ® ). The camera is preloaded with Pelco’s Camera Sabotage behavior, which can be configured and enabled using a standard Web browser.

The 0.5 megapixel (MPx) network camera includes a mechanical IR cut filter for increased sensitivity in low-light installations. The camera uses a 1/3-inch imager and accommodates CS-mount lenses.

The device features open architecture connectivity to third-party software. Pelco offers an application programming interface (API) and software development kit (SDK) that enables third-party systems to interface with Pelco's IP cameras. The device is also compatible with Endura ® , DX

Series, and Digital Sentry ® systems to record, manage, configure, and view multiple live streams.

The IXS0LW supports H.264, MJPEG, and MPEG-4 compression formats and many resolutions. The camera can support two simultaneous video streams.The dual streams can be configured to a variety of resolutions, frame rates, and bit rates.

The camera also includes built-in Power over Ethernet (PoE), which supplies power to the camera through the network. If PoE is not available, the camera is prewired for 24 VAC.

COMPATIBLE SYSTEMS

The device can also be used with an Endura, DX Series, or Digital Sentry system. It also works with many third-party systems with Pelco’s API and the ONVIF API. For detailed instructions on configuring the device using one of these systems, refer to the manual shipped with the system.

Installation

NOTE: Megapixel lenses are designed and tested to deliver optimal image quality to megapixel cameras. A standard definition lens installed on a megapixel camera will limit the resolution of the camera and create poor image quality.

1. Install the lens.

a.

Remove the cover from the lens mount.

b.

Screw the lens onto the lens mount. Be careful to prevent dust from entering the space between the lens and the imager.

Connecting Alarms

The camera provides an alarm input for external signaling devices, such as door contacts or motion detectors. Both normally open and normally closed devices are supported.

Supervised Alarms

When an alarm is configured as a supervised alarm, the camera maintains a constant electrical current through the alarm circuit

(3.3 VDC, 1 ohm). If the alarm circuit length changes, due to an electrical short or a bypass, the voltage fluctuates from its normal state and activates an alarm.

NOTE: Install the 1-kohm resistor as close to the switch as possible.

Figure 10 illustrates the alarm and no alarm conditions of a supervised alarm input. Whether the alarm is normally closed or normally open,

neither a cut nor a bypass can defeat these alarms.

Primary Stream: To select this stream, click the button next to Primary Stream.

Secondary Stream: To select this stream, click the button next to Secondary Stream.

QuickView Stream: To select this stream, click the button next to QuickView Stream.

Event Stream: To select this stream, click the button next to Event Stream.

NOTE: If the secondary stream has not been configured, only Primary Stream, Event Stream, and QuickView Stream are available.

3. Configure the display settings for the selected stream. Available display settings are determined by the video compression of the selected stream:

MPEG-4 or H.264 compression: For the Primary Stream or Secondary Stream, select Unicast and Multicast from the Transmission dropdown menu.

JPEG compression: For the Secondary Stream or QuickView Stream, select Images Per Second (IPS) from the Throttle drop-down menu.

4. Click the Select button to save the stream settings.

PRIMARY STREAM AND SECONDARY STREAM

The Primary Stream and Secondary Stream are video streams that include compression, resolution, image rate, and bit rate settings. The streams can be set up using a video configuration preset or they can be customized using the video configuration settings.

A video preset is a predefined video configuration that offers a good balance between video performance and bandwidth usage. For easy stream configuration, use the Video Presets page located in the drop-down menu of the A/V Streams tab.

To customize the Primary Stream or Secondary Stream, select the Settings page and then use the Video Configuration page located in the dropdown menu of the A/V Streams tab. Configurable settings include the stream name, compression, resolution, image rate, bit rate, and I-frame interval of the video streams. The default names for the streams are Primary Stream and Secondary Stream; however, if these stream names are changed, the new names replace the default names (Primary Stream and Secondary Stream) on the Select Stream page.

QUICKVIEW STREAM

The QuickView Stream is a predefined JPEG video stream with a lower resolution. This low resolution, low frame rate stream is available when the Imaging tab settings are being configured. This allows users to view changes to exposure, white balance, and other settings as they are configured and before the settings are saved.

The QuickView Stream is also ideal for users who are connected to a network with processor bandwidth limitations that might cause a high resolution, high frame rate video stream to pause or appear pixilated.

The aspect ratio of the QuickView Stream mirrors that of the Primary Stream.

EVENT STREAM

The Event Stream displays a list of alerts triggered by a running analytic behavior. The alert includes a screen capture, the profile that was triggered, and the zone where the alert was detected. For the Event Stream to work you must have an analytic behavior profile running. To set up and run analytic behaviors, profiles, and zones, use the Analytic Configuration page located in the drop-down menu of the Events tab.

UNICAST

A unicast transmission sends a separate video stream to each user that is requesting data. Although multiple users might request the same data from the camera at the same time, duplicate video streams are transmitted to each user. Every unicast user that connects to the camera consumes additional processing power, which limits the number of simultaneous users who can access the camera. The unicast transmission setting is available in the primary and secondary stream display settings.

The camera supports a maximum of 20 simultaneous users.

20 C2992M-B (8/13)

MULTICAST

A multicast transmission sends data to multiple users at the same time using one transmission stream. Each multicast user that connects to the camera consumes no additional processing power; therefore, multicast video streams can be sent to an unlimited number of simultaneous users.

The multicast transmission setting is available in the primary and secondary stream display settings.

SSL Settings

The SSL settings page includes SSL configuration modes and certificate generation. To ensure security on the Internet, all Web browsers provide several security levels that can be adjusted for sites that use SSL technology to transmit data. SSL encrypts communications, making it difficult for unauthorized users to intercept and view user names and passwords.

SSL requires signed certificates to determine if the Web browser accessing the camera has the required authentication. The camera can generate a certificate signing request (CSR) that can be sent to a certificate authority for a signature (for example, VeriSign ® ), or it can generate a self-signed certificate using the Generate Self-Signed Certificate option.

SSH Settings

The SSH settings page enables or disables SSH access to the camera. SSH is a user-enabled protocol that allows Pelco Product Support to log on to and service the camera for advanced troubleshooting purposes.

The 802.1x settings page enables or disables 802.1x port security, which authenticates devices that want to establish a point-to-point access through a wired or wireless port using Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) protocols. This port-based authentication method prevents unauthorized access to a Local Area Network (LAN) through a physical port. For example, when a device is connected to a network port, the network switch asks the device for authentication. The device replies with its credentials. If the credentials are accepted, the network switch opens the port for normal use. If authentication fails, the device is prevented from accessing information on the port.

SNMP Settings

The SNMP setting page includes SNMP configuration settings. SNMP is an application layer protocol used to manage TCP/IP-based networks from a single workstation or several workstations. The camera supports SNMP v2c and v3 and can be configured to send traps.

TURNING ON DHCP

The default Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) setting for the camera is DHCP On. If DHCP is set to Off, complete the following steps to reset it to On.



3. Select On for DHCP.


NOTE: If the camera is not connected to a DHCP server but DHCP is set to On, the default IP address 192.168.0.20 on subnet mask 255.255.255.0 is automatically assigned to the camera. After the first camera is connected and assigned the default IP address, the system automatically looks for other cameras on the auto IP address system and assigns IP addresses in sequential order as required. For example, if three cameras are connected to a network without a DHCP server, the first camera is assigned address 192.168.0.20, the second camera is assigned address

192.168.0.21, and the third camera is assigned address 192.168.0.22.

CONFIGURING A STATIC IPV4 ADDRESS

WARNING: Contact your network administrator to avoid any network conflicts before setting or changing the IP address of the device.



3. Select Off for the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).

4. Change the following network settings as required:

IP Address: The address of the camera connected to the network.

Subnet Mask: The address that determines the IP network to which the camera is connected (relative to its address).

Gateway: The router that accesses other networks.

DNS Servers: The addresses of the dedicated servers that translate the names for Web sites and host names into numeric IP addresses.


CONFIGURING IPV6 ADDRESS SETTINGS

Your Sarix device supports IPv6 in conjunction with IPv4 configurations; the device does not support IPv6-only network deployments. The device will accept up to sixteen IPv6 addresses, three IPv6 DNS servers, and three IPv6 gateways.

NOTE: IPv6 features are not available for Object Video Analytics models (-OCP, -OS, -OCP).

There are two configuration modes for IPv6 address assignments:

Auto: Enables automatic configuration using router advertisement. Additional configuration can be provided over DHCPv6 (if available on your network). Selecting Auto mode still allows you to manually configure additional IPv6 addresses, DNS servers, and gateways.

Manual Only: Provides a link-local IPv6 address for the device and allows you to assign up to 16 static IPv6 addresses to the device.



3. Select On for IPv6.

4. Select a Configuration Mode from the drop-down box. Selecting Auto allows the device to configure the remaining IPv6 settings automatically, rendering the remaining steps optional.

5.

(Optional) Provide static, unicast addresses in the Manual IP Addresses box. Each address requires a prefix, and it must be input using the format prefix/IPv6Address . Manual IP addresses without prefix information will be rejected.

6.

(Optional) Provide the addresses of DNS servers that are not configured automatically in the Manual DNS Servers box.

28 C2992M-B (8/13)

7.

(Optional) Provide the addresses of gateways that are not configured automatically in the Manual Gateways box.

NOTES:

• The device will not accept multicast, localhost, or undefined IPv6 addresses.

• Link-local addresses are not supported for DNS.

• Manually specified DNS servers supersede automatically discovered DNS servers.

• Manually specified DNS servers are not validated by the device; verify any manually specified DNS servers before saving IPv6 settings.

• Manually specified gateways must be on the same network as the devices’s IPv6 addresses. Behavior for a gateway that is not on the same network as the device’s IPv6 addresses is undefined.

• Some video management systems (VMS), including Pelco VMS systems, do not support connections to cameras and encoders over IPv6.

SELECTING THE SECURE SOCKETS LAYER MODE


2. Select SSL from the drop-down menu.

3. Select one of the following modes:

Disabled: Turns off access to the Web client through SSL. Sensitive data is not encrypted during transmission. The default setting is disabled.

NOTE: If the SSL mode is set to disabled, you cannot access the camera using a URL that begins with an “https:” protocol. Your Web browser displays an error message if you do not type the camera URL correctly.

Optional: A signed SSL certificate must be installed, but a secure URL that begins with the protocol name “https:” is optional when accessing the camera. You can also access the camera using a standard URL with the “http:” protocol, but sensitive data is not encrypted during transmission. To ensure that sensitive data is encrypted, you must use a secure URL with the “https:” protocol.

Required: A signed Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate must be installed, and a secure URL that begins with the protocol name “https:” must be used to access the camera. Sensitive data is always encrypted during transmission. A URL that begins with the “http:” protocol rather than the “https:” protocol is redirected to the secure URL automatically.

NOTE: Beginning with firmware version 1.8.2, this mode cannot be modified in the Web browser. To select or clear the Required mode, you must use the ONVIF or Pelco API call. Doing so avoids placing the camera into a mode in which it would no longer work with a connected

VMS system.

Imaging Tab

Use the Imaging tab to change the camera’s general image settings, adjust the camera exposure, program the focus mechanism, adjust the tone map settings to increase scene detail, tune the white balance settings for scenes with fluctuating lighting conditions, or define window blanking privacy areas.

General Imaging Settings

General imaging settings include adjustments for camera orientation and digital processing. The Orientation settings reconfigure the image

180 degrees horizontally and 180 degrees vertically. Use these settings when installing the camera in an inverted position. If the orientation is not adjusted, the image will display upside down and mirrored.

Digital processing settings can be set to Auto or Manual to adjust the camera’s sharpness, saturation, and contrast. When set to Auto, the camera continually delivers the best possible image by automatically adjusting the digital processing settings based on the scene. Auto is the default setting. Manual digital processing is recommended only for indoor applications that have a single, unchanging primary light source.

Exposure Settings

Exposure is the amount of light detected by the camera sensor. A scene with correct exposure settings has adequate detail and contrast between white and dark values. An image with too little or too much exposure eliminates detail in the scene. The camera features Auto and Manual exposure settings. Auto exposure automatically sets the amount of light detected by the camera sensor based on settings for light control, exposure compensation, and the day and night exposure times. Manual exposure sets the amount of light detected by the camera sensor based on a user-defined setting. Manual exposure is recommended only for indoor applications that have a single, unchanging primary light source.

Auto is the default setting.

Focus Settings

Focus sets the back focus to the center focal point of the scene. The camera can be configured to back focus automatically or manually. Auto focus automatically back focuses the camera on the subject in the center of the scene. Manual focus turns off the auto focus mechanism and locks the camera at a user-specified position. The manual focus setting is recommended only for indoor applications that have a single, unchanging primary light source. The Focus page also includes Full Range Auto-Focus, Quick Auto-Focus, and a Factory Defaults.

Tone Map Settings

Tone map balances the brightest and darkest sections of a scene to produce an image with more balanced lighting and more detail. This is accomplished, in part, when the device maps the 10-bit input sensor data (0 to 1023 bits) into 8-bit output RGB values (0 to 255 bits).

White Balance Settings

White balance settings define how the camera processes video images to render true colors in a scene. White balance is especially effective in scenes with changing lighting conditions or in scenes with more than one type of light source. For example, scenes that benefit from white balance correction are outdoor scenes, indoor scenes that include a window or door that opens to the outdoors, or indoor scenes that include both incandescent and fluorescent lighting.

Window Blanking Settings

Window blanking is used to conceal user-defined privacy areas. A blanked area appears on the screen as a solid gray window. The camera can handle up to four blanked windows as long as the total blanked area does not exceed 50 percent of the field of view.

CONFIGURING THE ORIENTATION OF THE SCENE

1. Place your mouse pointer over the Imaging tab.


3. Select one of the following options:

• Click the “Flip left-to-right” box to rotate the camera image 180 degrees horizontally.

• Click the “Flip top-to-bottom” box to rotate the camera image 180 degrees vertically.

C2992M-B (8/13)

CHANGING THE DIGITAL PROCESSING SETTINGS



3. Select the mode: Manual or Auto. Auto is the default.

4. Move the sliders to change the following settings:

Sharpness Adjust: Controls the clarity of detail in a scene. Move the slider to the right to increase the sharpness; move the slider to the left to decrease the sharpness. Increasing the sharpness also increases the image noise.

Saturation Adjust: Controls how intense or vivid the colors are in a scene. Move the slider to the right to increase the saturation level; move the slider to the left to decrease the saturation level.

Contrast Adjust: Controls gradations between the darkest and lightest portions of the scene. Move the slider to the right to increase the contrast; move the slider to the left to decrease the contrast.

For each slider, the auto range of adjustment is –100 to 100; the auto default setting is 0 (zero). The manual range of adjustment is 0 to 100; the manual default setting is 50.

5. If required, click the “Restore Settings to Defaults” button to restore the default settings, or click the Restore All Imaging Settings button to restore all the imaging settings.

SELECTING EXPOSURE SETTINGS


2. Select Exposure from the drop-down menu.

3. Set the Day Exposure Time and the Night Exposure Time.

Day Exposure Time: This setting is the maximum time in milliseconds that an image is exposed during daytime conditions. Decreasing exposure time decreases the light sensitivity of the scene and reduces the blur caused by fast moving objects; however, it increases the amount of noise in the scene. The day maximum exposure time range is 1 to 500 msec; the default setting is 33.3 msec.

Night Exposure Time: This setting is the maximum time in milliseconds that an image is exposed during nighttime (black-white) conditions. Increasing the exposure time increases the light sensitivity of the scene. The night maximum exposure time range is 1 to

500 msec; the default setting is 120 msec.

4. Select the Flicker Correction mode: Auto, On, or Off.

Auto: This setting automatically reduces rolling shutter flicker in scenes with less dynamic range, but it does not reduce picture flicker in scenes with high dynamic range.

On: This setting reduces rolling shutter picture flicker, and it dramatically reduces the amount of dynamic range in the image.

Off: This setting maintains the maximum amount of dynamic range in the image, but it can produce rolling shutter picture flicker in scenes with florescent or other oscillating light sources. Off is the default setting.

5. Set the Day/Night mode to Auto or Manual.

Auto: This setting automatically controls the IR filter determined by the Transition Level and the Transition Detect settings.

Manual: This setting sets the IR filter to a fixed position. The filter can be set to the Day (color) position or the Night (black-white) position.

C2992M-B (8/13) 33

DAY NIGHT SETTINGS

The Day Night mode controls the position of the IR cut filter, which determines the color or black-white setting of the camera. The Day Night mode settings change depending on the Exposure settings. If the camera is set to Auto mode, the Day Night mode can be set to Auto or Manual and all of the respective settings are available. If the camera is set to Manual mode, the only available Day Night mode setting is Position, which sets the IR filter to either the day (color) position or the night (black-white) position.

The Day Night mode controls the position of the IR cut filter, which determines the color or black-white setting of the camera. The Day Night mode settings change depending on the Exposure settings. If the Day Night mode is set to Auto, the transition settings are available. If the camera is set to Manual mode, the only available Day Night mode setting is Position, which sets the IR filter to either the day (color) position or the night (black-white) position.

DAY NIGHT AUTO AND MANUAL MODES

DAY NIGHT AUTO MODE

The Day Night Auto mode setting automatically controls the IR cut filter depending on the Transition Level and Transition Detect Time settings.

Transition Level: Determines when the camera changes from day mode (color) to night mode (black-white). Move the slider to the left or right to change the transition level to a lighter or darker setting. Select a lighter transition level setting if you want the camera to change modes at a high lux setting. Use the default setting of 4 for normal day/night operation. Use a darker transition level to change modes at a low lux setting.

Transition Detect Time (sec): Controls the length of time the camera is exposed to a light level before it changes to color or black-white mode.

This setting is useful for dark scenes where a bright light is momentarily introduced in the scene (for example, when a car with its headlights turned on passes the camera scene).

DAY NIGHT MANUAL MODE

The Day Night Manual mode sets the IR cut filter to a fixed position depending on the Position setting. Available settings include Day and Night.

Day: Sets the IR filter to the Day (color) position.

Night: Sets the IR filter to the Night (black-white) position.

NOTE: Position is the only available Day Night setting if the camera exposure is set to Manual.

CONFIGURING AUTO FOCUS SETTINGS


2. Select Focus from the drop-down menu.

3. Select the Auto mode.

4. Set the Temperature Change Refocus setting. The camera is programmed to run a quick automatic focus sequence when the internal temperature sensor of the camera detects an environmental temperature change of 41°F (5°C). This focus sequence adjusts the center focal point of the scene to maintain optimal focus. The default setting is On; select Off to turn off this setting.

5.

Day/night cameras only : Set the Day/Night Switch Refocus setting. The default setting for the Day/Night Switch Refocus is Off. Select On if the camera’s focal length is greater than ~25 mm or the night scene uses mostly IR lighting. The best method to determine if the day/night refocus should be enabled is to test the camera with the daytime light conditions, and then test it again with the nighttime light conditions.

When the setting is On, the imager automatically refocuses the lens when the camera changes from night mode (black-white) to day mode

(color) or the reverse. For example, if the camera changes from day mode to night mode, the imager automatically adjusts the back focus for the change in light.

6. If required, use one of the following buttons to adjust the focus:

Full Range Auto-Focus: The camera starts a full-range search to find the optimal focal point for the scene.

Quick Auto-Focus: The camera searches for the optimal focal point in a limited range.

Restore Setings to Defaults: The camera resets the auto focus to the factory default setting.

C2992M-B (8/13) 35

CONFIGURING MANUAL FOCUS SETTINGS

NOTES:

• The most accurate way to set the manual focus is to perform a full range auto focus for daytime and nighttime scenes.

• It is recommended that you set the focus to Manual when using analytics. If the focus is set to Auto, significant background changes will occur when the camera automatically adjusts to different points within a scene, resulting in frequently changing image sharpness. This may cause problems with scene recognition, which will suspend analytics operation or cause false alarms.

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 video presets settings, and video and audio configuration.

Video Presets Settings

The video preset settings page includes three fully-configured video presets, High, Medium, and Low, which include primary and secondary video stream settings for easy setup. These presets can also be used as a starting point for a custom video configuration.

These preset configurations vary depending on camera model.

Video Configuration Settings

The video configuration settings page allows you to customize the compression, resolution, image rate, bit rate, and I-frame interval 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 Settings

The audio configuration settings page allows you to set up 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 might not be synchronized.

Not all camera models are equipped with an internal audio device. Refer to the specifications for your camera model for information.

NOTE: Improper use of audio/visual recording equipment might subject you to civil and criminal penalties. Applicable laws regarding the use of such capabilities vary between jurisdictions and might require, among other things, express written consent from the recorded subjects. You are solely responsible for ensuring strict compliance with such laws and for strict adherence to any/all rights of privacy and personalty.

3. Click both of the Clear buttons to delete the primary and secondary streams settings.

4.

Optional: In the Primary Stream section, type a user-friendly name in the Name box (2 to 64 characters). A user-friendly name makes it easier to recognize the stream (for example, Live and Recording).

5. Configure the Compression Standard, Resolution, Image Rate, Bit Rate, and I-frame Interval settings for the primary stream.

NOTE: The compression standard, resolution, image rate, bit rate, and I-frame interval settings are dependent on each other. You must first decide the priority setting before you configure a stream. For example, if you want an image rate of 30 ips, set the image rate before you configure the other settings.

6. Configure QoS (DSCP) Codepoint, Endura Signing, Profile, and GOP Structure.

7. Repeat steps 3 to 5 for the Secondary stream.


COMPRESSION STANDARDS

JPEG: A commonly used video compression scheme. JPEG has the least impact on the camera’s processor, but it requires the most bandwidth.

MJPEG: Motion JPEG has the same characteristics as JPEG but differs in its mode of transfer (RTP).

MPEG-4 (available only with 0.5 megapixel model): A full-motion video standard used by most DVD recorders. MPEG-4 is less processor-intensive than JPEG, but it uses more bandwidth than H.264.

H.264: Also known as MPEG-4 Part 10 or Advanced Video Coding (AVC), H.264 is one of the most widely used compression, recording, and distribution methodologies for High Definition (HD) video. It is used in Blu-ray ™ video players and by companies that transmit HD video or movies over the internet and by satellite. H.264 is the most processor-intensive compression standard, but it requires the least amount of bandwidth.

IMAGE RATE

The image rate is the number of images per second (ips) available for the video stream configuration. Available image rates depend upon the model of the device that you are using.

NOTE: The maximum image rate setting might not be obtainable due to the compression standard and the resolution of the stream.

BIT RATE

The bit rate is the quality of the video stream (rendered in kilobits per second). The higher the value, the higher the video quality and bandwidth required.

NOTE: When you change any of the video stream configuration settings, the camera automatically adjusts the bit rate. If you manually reduce the bit rate lower than the camera's automatic setting, the image quality might be reduced and the stream selection options might be limited.

I-FRAME INTERVAL

The I-frame interval configures the number of partial frames that occur between full frames in the video stream. For example, in a scene where a door opens and a person walks through, only the movements of the door and the person are stored by the video encoder. The stationary background that occurs in the previous partial frames is not encoded, because no changes occurred in that part of the scene. The stationary background is only encoded in the full frames. Partial frames improve video compression rates by reducing the size of the video. As the I-frame interval increases, the number of partial frames increases between full frames. Higher values are recommended only on networks with high reliability. This setting is available only with H.264 and MPEG-4 compression standards.

QUALITY OF SERVICE FOR DIFFERENTIATED SERVICES CODE POINT

Quality of Service (QoS) for Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) is a code that allows the network to prioritize the transmission of different types of data. This setting is available only with H.264 and MPEG-4 compression standards.

NOTES:

• If you are not familiar with DSCP, contact your network administrator before changing this setting.

• Your network must be configured to use QoS. If you are unsure if your network is QoS-aware, contact your network administrator.

ENDURA SIGNING

Enabling the Endura Signing feature allows an Endura ® system to authenticate video from an Endura recorded stream. This setting is available only with H.264 and MPEG-4 compression standards.

PROFILE

The profile defines the subset of bit stream features in an H.264 stream, which includes color reproduction and additional video compression. It is important that the selected profile is compatible with the recording device so that a stream can be decoded and viewed.

Baseline: A simple profile with a low compression ratio. A baseline profile is compatible with more recorders but uses more bits to compress quality video than the other profiles. This profile supports I-frames and P-frames. Use the baseline profile in applications with limited scene changes; for example, an indoor scene with a single, unchanging primary light source and minimal motion.

Main: An intermediate profile with a medium compression ratio. The default setting is main. This profile is compatible with most recorders and uses fewer bits to compress video than the baseline profile; however, it uses more bits than the high profile. The main profile supports I-frames,

P-frames, and B-frames.

High: A complex profile with a high compression ratio. This is the primary profile for high-definition television applications; for example this is the profile adopted for Blu-ray and HD-DVD. The high profile supports I-frames, P-frames, and B-frames.

GOP

The group of pictures (GOP) structure is the sequence in which frames are placed within a video stream. The GOP structure always includes intra-coded frames (I-frames) and predictive coded frames (P-frames), but it can also include bi-directionally predictive coded frames (B-frames).

Each GOP structure starts with an I-frame: an image of the complete scene that is used as the reference frame in the structure. P-frames record data changes that are different than the previous frame. This allows the video encoder to save space since the data of the I-frame is not duplicated. B-frames not only capture data changes from the previous frame, but they also capture the data changes from the frame after the

B-frame. B-frames are more compressed than P-frames and require more processing power to be decoded.

The camera can be configured to use one of the following GOP structures:

IP: A compression that uses only I-frames and P-frames to provide low latency and a high level of decoder support. This GOP structure is compatible with more recorders and decoders than IBBrBP.

IBBrBP: The most sophisticated H.264 compression available. IBBrBP provides the highest quality image at a given bit rate, but it also increases the latency of the video and requires more processing power for decoders.

Events Tab

Use the Events tab to configure camera events and analytics.

Events are activated by user-defined event sources that tell the device how to react when an event occurs. Event handlers are the actions that the device takes when an event occurs. For example, a system source can be configured to send email to an operator if the system shuts-down and restarts.

Sources Settings

The camera supports an input alarm source, an analytic source, a system source, and a timer source. The Alarm source is the camera input for an external signaling device, such as a door contact or motion detector. The Analytics source triggers when any configured behavior is detected. The

System source is activated when the camera restarts. The Timer source is a user-defined event that activates an event after a specified amount of time. For example, the timer can be activated every 60 seconds to save an image to an SD card.

The sources settings page defines the camera functions that are automatically triggered by an event source. The camera supports Alarm,

Analytics, System, and Timer sources. The Alarm source is the camera input for an external signaling device, such as a door contact or motion detector. The Analytics source triggers when any configured behavior is detected. The System source is activated when the camera restarts. The

Timer source is a user-defined event that activates an event after a specified amount of time.

Handlers Settings

The device supports a Send Email handler, a “Write JPEG to SD Card” handler, and an “Upload JPEG to FTP Server” handler. The Send Email handler sends an email to a defined email address when an event is activated. The “Write JPEG to SD Card” saves a JPEG of the activated event to an SD card. The “Upload JPEG to FTP Server” saves a JPEG of the activated event to a defined FTP server.

The handlers settings page defines the actions that a camera takes when an event occurs. The camera supports Send Email, Write JPEG to

SD Card, Upload JPEG to FTP Server, and Open/Close Relay handlers. The Send Email handler sends an email to a defined email address when an event is activated. The Write JPEG to SD Card handler saves a JPEG of the activated event to an SD card. The Upload JPEG to FTP Server handler saves a JPEG of the activated event to a defined FTP server. The Open/Close Relay handler sends a signal to an external device when an alarm or relay is triggered.

NOTE: The Pelco Alarm accessory must be connected to the camera’s accessory port for Open/Close Relay to work.

Analytic Configuration Settings

Pelco analytics can be configured and enabled using a standard Web browser. The device is preloaded with Pelco’s Camera Sabotage behavior, which detects contrast changes in the field of view. An alarm is triggered if the lens is obstructed with spray paint, a cloth, or covered with a lens cap. Any unauthorized repositioning of the camera also triggers an alarm.

The analytic configuration settings page includes behaviors for which you can create custom profiles that contain different camera settings. With these profiles, you can set up different scenarios for the behavior that automatically detects and triggers alarms when the specific activity is detected.

Pelco analytics can be configured and enabled using a standard Web browser. The device is preloaded with user-configurable behaviors and is capable of running several behaviors at the same time. The number of behaviors is limited to the available processing power of the device.

Available processing power is determined by the settings for compression standards, resolution, image rate, bit rate, and analytic configuration.

Pelco analytics are also compatible with Endura ® or a third-party system that supports alarms using Pelco’s API. Refer to the specific product documentation for instructions on how to configure and enable Pelco analytics.

NOTE: Analytic alerts can be seen in the event stream, but alarms are only transmitted through Pelco’s API.

Pelco analytics include the following behaviors:

Adaptive Motion: Detects and tracks objects that enter a scene and then triggers an alarm when the objects enter a user-defined zone. The objects are monitored until they exit the scene.

Camera Sabotage: Detects contrast changes in the field of view. An alarm is triggered if the lens is obstructed with spray paint, a cloth, or covered with a lens cap. Any unauthorized repositioning of the camera also triggers an alarm.

ANALYTIC CONFIGURATION

To configure an analytic behavior using a standard Web browser, you must create a profile, select the behavior for the profile, and then create the zones to be monitored by the behavior.

NOTES:

• This section explains how to configure and enable Pelco analytics using a Web browser.

• Analytic alerts can be seen in the event stream, but alarms are only transmitted through Pelco’s API.

• For information on how to receive analytic alerts for ObjectVideo Suites, refer to the ObjectVideo Web Console User Guide or the

ObjectVideo Web Console User Guide-Abridged. Both are available on the resource disc supplied with the camera.

PROFILES

A profile defines the scene attributes of a behavior including scene type, background movement, and noise sensitivity. When configured properly, a profile accurately detects behavior violations and decreases the number of triggered false alarms.

Profile Settings

For each behavior, you can create several custom profiles that contain different settings. These settings include:

Name: Assigns a descriptive name to the profile to make it easier to recognize and locate. Consider naming profiles based on their function.

Scene type: Sets the scene type of the profile. Available settings include Indoor and Outdoor.

Background: Defines the background movement of the scene. Available settings include Still or Noisy. If the background is stable, with few moving objects, set the background to Still. If the background is busy, with many moving objects, select Noisy.

Fine tuning: Defines the zone violation sensitivity. Available settings include Conservative, Normal, or Aggressive. Conservative is the least sensitive setting and reduces the amount of triggered false alarms, but it could miss some zone violations. Aggressive is the most sensitive setting and detects all suspect objects, but it could trigger more false alarms. Normal falls between conservative and aggressive sensitivity and provides moderate results.

Sensitivity: Defines the minimum motion an object can move before a behavior is activated. Settings range from 1 (low) to 10 (high). The selected setting identifies any movement lower than the defined setting as noise, and ignores it. The higher the setting, the greater the chance for a false alarm. A lower setting reduces the chance for a false alarm, but it could result in missed violations.

Calibrate Scene

Calibrate the scene to specify the dimensions for the objects of interest and to filter out objects that should not trigger an event or alarm. You must calibrate the scene for both object height and object width.

NOTES:

• When setting object height, be sure to use an object that is similar in size to the objects you plan to track in the scene. For example, if you want to detect people in a scene, use a person to calibrate the object height; if you want to detect vehicles in the scene, use a vehicle to calibrate the object height.

• When setting object width, be sure to use a relatively wide, static object such as a road or an aisle. This will ensure that the scene is calibrated with accurate perspective to reflect the camera’s angle.

7. Place three objects of the same height at three different locations in the scene (near left, near right, and at a distance).

8. Using your mouse pointer, drag the three blue boxes on the screen to overlay the objects you have placed in the scene.

9. Resize each of the three boxes to cover the objects that you have placed in the scene.

10. Type the real-world height of the objects in the boxes in the lower-right corner of the screen.

11. Set the object width to complete the scene calibration.

Setting Object Width



3. Click the profile that you want to use from the Select Profile list.

NOTE: You must repeat scene calibration for each profile you want to use.

4. Click the Calibrate Scene button.

5. Click the “Set width” button.

6. Click the Pause button to freeze the video while you make on-screen adjustments.

7. Using your mouse pointer, drag the two yellow lines on the screen to overlay an object that appears both in the foreground (near) and background (far). For example, you might select a car, hallway, or street. Use the same type of object for both the near and far settings.

NOTES:

• Select an object that is larger horizontally to provide a more accurate perspective of the monitored scene.

• The monitored scene is more accurate when the “Width of near object” and the “Width of far object” lines are farther apart.

8. Resize both of the lines to exactly span the width of the objects that you are using for calibration.

9. Click the “Return to Main View” button to save your calibration settings and continue setting up analytics.

BEHAVIORS

Behaviors analyze objects within the camera’s field of view and are configured to detect and trigger alarms automatically when specific activity is detected.

Examples of behaviors include Camera Sabotage, which detects contrast changes in the field of view and triggers an alarm if the lens is obstructed or if the camera is repositioned; Adaptive Motion, which detects and tracks objects that enter a user-defined zone; and Object

Counting, which counts the number of objects that enter a defined zone.

C2992M-B (8/13)

Configuring a Behavior



3. Select a profile from the Select Profile section.

4. Select the behavior for the profile from the Select Behaviors section.

5. Check the Activate Behavior box located in the “Settings for [behavior name]” section.

If the camera has enough resources, the behavior activates and a check mark appears to the left of the selected behavior(s), which is located in the Select Behaviors section.

If the camera does not have enough resources, the following message and instructions appear: “The camera does not have enough processing power to activate this behavior. To free up needed resources, turn off one of the other behaviors or reconfigure the video streams.”

6. Set up the zones for the behavior.


ZONES

A zone is a defined boundary or area that is monitored by a configured behavior. A zone can be defined by a box, polygon, or line. If a box or polygon is drawn to define the zone, any motion in the defined direction triggers an alarm. For example, if a line is drawn to define the zone, any motion that crosses the line in the defined direction triggers an alarm. Objects within a zone can also be excluded and sized.

Draw Zone Tools

NOTE: The available zone drawing tools depend on the configured analytic behavior.

Box: Tracks objects in a defined zone and triggers an alarm if the objects move in the same direction as defined.

Polygon: Tracks objects in a defined zone and triggers an alarm if the objects move in the same direction as defined.

Line: Tracks objects that cross a line and triggers an alarm if the objects move in the same direction as defined.

Exclude Zone Box Tool: Ignores objects inside a defined zone.

Exclude Zone Polygon Tool: Ignores objects inside a defined zone.

Object Size Filter: Sets the minimum and maximum object size for a zone.

Drawing a Zone



3. Click a behavior located in the Select Behaviors section.

4. Check the Activate Behavior box located in the “Settings for [behavior name]” section. A check mark appears to the left of the selected behavior(s) located in the Select Behaviors section.

5. Use the draw tools to define the zone.

6. Set the behavior-specific settings for the zone.

7. To draw another zone, repeat steps 5 and 6.


Deleting a Zone



3. Click the behavior located in the Select Behaviors section that you want to modify.

4. The settings for the behavior are displayed in the “Settings for [behavior name]” section.

5. In the “Zone list” area of the page, click the check box next to the zone you want to delete.


ADAPTIVE MOTION

The Adaptive Motion behavior detects and tracks objects that enter a scene and then triggers an alarm when the objects enter a user-defined zone. The objects are monitored until they exit the scene.

The Adaptive Motion behavior is designed to work indoors and outdoors to track a few moving objects in uncrowded fields of view. The behavior learns the background scene over time and adjusts to changing conditions like snow, fog, wind, and rain.

Analytics events, including Adaptive Motion, are displayed on the live video page when viewing the Event stream. You must configure both an analytics event source and the appropriate event handlers in order to receive notifications when an Adaptive Motion alarm is triggered.

Scene Setup for Adaptive Motion

Install the camera in a ceiling or against a wall with the lens pointing at a slight downward angle, above regular motion activity.

The ideal scene for Adaptive Motion behavior is one with light traffic and a clean background. If heavy traffic or a busy background is unavoidable, place the user-defined zone in a relatively stable area.

Avoid crowded scenes where people move in all directions or stand in one place for long periods of time.

NOTE: Objects that are very small might not be classified as the correct object type. This could result in false alarms or alarms not being triggered. If objects appear too small in the scene, move the camera closer to the zone of interest to increase the relative size of the objects in the scene.

C2992M-B (8/13)

Selecting Adaptive Motion Settings




4. Select Adaptive Motion from the Select Behaviors list.

5. Click the Activate Behavior check box to enable Adaptive Motion for the selected profile.

6. Use the zone draw tools to draw one or more zones of interest in the video pane.

7. After you have defined the desired zones, adjust the following zone settings:

Name: Assigns a descriptive name to make the zone easier to distinguish when viewing detection messages.

Direction: Detects and tracks moving objects and people that move in a specified direction within the defined zone.

Enable alarm: Turns on the zone alarm, which displays a log of analytics events in the Event stream on the live video page. Alarms can also trigger an event handler if sources and handlers are configured for analytics.

Alarm severity: Defines the severity of an alarm to allow the prioritization of alarms.

Dwell time: Defines the amount of time that an alarm remains activated after the alarm-triggering object exits the zone.


CAMERA SABOTAGE

The Camera Sabotage behavior detects contrast changes in the field of view. An alarm is triggered if the lens is obstructed by spray paint, a cloth, or if it is covered with a lens cap. Any unauthorized repositioning of the camera also triggers an alarm.

Scene Setup for Camera Sabotage

Install the camera in a high position, looking down on the scene. The field of view should be as large as possible. A small field of view could result in the view being blocked by an adjacent object.

Avoid scenes with a dark, uniform background; low lighting; and large moving objects.

Selecting Camera Sabotage Settings




4. Select Camera Sabotage from the Select Behaviors list.

5. Click the Activate Behavior check box to enable Camera Sabotage for the selected profile.

6. Adjust the following zone settings:

Delay before alarm: Defines the delay between the time a violation is detected and the actual trigger of an alarm. If the violation does not continue past the delay period, an alarm does not trigger. If the violation lasts longer than the delay period, an alarm triggers. The default setting is 3 seconds.

Alarm severity: Defines the severity of an alarm to allow the prioritization of alarms.
