6-2 Troubleshooting

Please don’t panic when you found this IP camera is not working properly. Before you send this IP camera back to us, you can do some simple checks to save your time:

Problem description

Cannot connect to IP Camera

No IP Camera found

No image

Possible solution(s)

 Please check the IP address of IP Camera again.

 Please make sure the network cable is correctly connected to your local area network.

 Please make sure power cable is correctly connected to IP Camera.

 Please make sure IP Camera is switched on (the LED lights on IP Camera will light up).

‘Auto search’ function only works on IP Cameras located on local area network.

 If the place where IP camera is installed is too dark, try to add some lights when possible.

 Check if there’s anything covering the lens.

6-3 Glossary

H.264: H.264 is the latest compression technology that significantly reduces the file size of high-quality video images. Offers higher video resolution than Motion JPEG or MPEG-4 at the same bit rate and bandwidth, or the same quality video at a lower bit rate.

PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet): Is a network protocol for encapsulating

Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) frames inside Ethernet frames.

TCP / IP (Transmission Control Protocol/ Internet Protocol): TCP is used along with the Internet

Protocol (IP) to transmit data as packets between computers over the network. TCP is a connection-oriented protocol, which means that a connection is established between the two end-points and is maintained until the data has been successfully exchanged between the communicating applications.

DDNS (Dynamic DNS): Used to create a fixed domain name for dynamic internet IP address. A domain name is a meaningful and easy-to-remember name for an Internet address. Normally used when the ISP has provided you with dynamic internet IP address to access the camera remotely.

SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol): SMTP is used for sending and receiving e-mail. SMTP authentication is an extension of SMTP, whereby the client is required to log into the mail server before or during the sending of email. It can be used to allow legitimate users to send email while denying the ervice to unauthorized users, such as spammers.

UPnP (Universal Plug & Play): A set of computer network protocols that allow the automatic peer-to-peer detection of devices on the network. Allows the discovery of UPnP- enabled devices in a network environment.

RTSP (Real Time Streaming protocol): RTSP is a control protocol for Internet streaming of audio and video. Mostly used for remote viewing of live or stored security camera video over the

Internet.RTSP can be considered as a “remote control” for controlling the media stream delivered by a media server. RTSP servers typically use RTP as the protocol for the actual transport of audio/video data.

CMOS Sensor (Complimentary metal-oxide semiconductor): Is an image sensor available in manyIP network cameras with less circuitry hence consumes less power, produces higher frame rate & is less costly as compared to CCD sensors.

Frame Rate: The frame rate is used to describe the frequency at which a video stream is updated is measured in frames per second (fps). If you want more accurate video then the frame rate should be kept high. Lower the frame rate, lesser the image details.

IP filtering:

The IP camera can either white list or blacklist an IP address. This restricts unauthorized access to the IP camera.

Infrared (IR) cut-off filters: They are used with color CCD or CMOS imager to produce accurate color images. An IR cut-off filter blocks the transmission of the infrared while passing the visible.

This can be done with two optical techniques: absorption or reflection. Absorptive filters are made with special optical glass that absorbs near infrared radiation. Reflection type filters are short-pass interference filters that reflect infrared light with high efficiency.

Day/Night function: This IP camera has IR LED for better visibility under no light environment. If the environment light is not sufficient enough to view the camera then the IR LED’s are triggered automatically for better visibility.

Digital WDR: It is a software-based technique that enables the camera to produce clearer images in less than ideal lighting conditions. D-WDR balances the contrast of light and shadow to improve visibility in dark areas within a scene.
