2.1 LAN

In LAN, there are two ways to access the IP-Cam: 1. access through IP-Tool; 2. directly access through

IE browser.

1.1.1 Access through IP-Tool

Network connection:

Make sure the PC and IP-Cam are connected to the LAN and the IP-Tool is installed in the PC from

the CD.

Double click the IP-Tool icon on the desktop to run this software as shown below:

Modify the IP address. The default IP address of this camera is 192.168.226.201. Click the

information of the camera listed in the above

table to show the network information on the right side.

Modify the IP address and gateway of the camera and make sure its network address is in the same

local network segment as that of the computer. Please modify the IP address of your device according

to the practical situation.

1.3

Image Configuration

Image Configuration includes Display, Video/Audio, OSD, Video Mask, ROI Config and

Zoom/Focus.

1.3.1 Display Configuration

Go to ImageàDisplay interface as shown below. You can set and adjust the picture’s brightness,

contrast, hue and saturation, etc.

Set the format, resolution and quality of the image saved on the SD card and the snapshot interval and quantity and

the timing snapshot here.

Snapshot Quantity: The number you set here is the maximum quantity of snapshots. The actual quantity of

snapshots may be less than this number. Supposing the occurrence time of an alarm event is less than the time of

capturing pictures, the actual quantity of snapshots is less than the set quantity of snapshots.

1.2.6 Snapshot Settings

Go to Config

àSystemàStorageàSnapshot to go to the interface as shown below

Timing Snapshot: Enable timing snapshot first and then set the snapshot interval and schedule. The

setup steps of schedule are the same as the schedule recording (See “Schedule Recording”).

Transcendent IP Cameras v4: Operation Manual

15

Brightness: Set the brightness level of the camera’s image.

Contrast: Set the color difference between the brightest and darkest parts.

Hue: Set the total color degree of the image.

Saturation: Set the degree of color purity. The purer the color, the brighter the image is.

WDR: WDR can adjust the camera to provide a better image when there are very bright

and very dark areas simultaneously in the field of view by lowering the brightness of the

bright area and increasing the brightness of the dark area.

Sharpness: Set the resolution level of the image plane and the sharpness level of the image edge.

Noise Reduction: Decrease the noise and make the image more thorough. Increasing the

value will mak

e the noise reduction effect better but it will reduce the image

resolution. Defog: Activating this function and setting an appropriate value as needed

in foggy, dusty, smoggy or rainy environment to get clearer images.

Backlight Compensation (BLC):

à Off: disables the backlight compensation function. It is the default mode.

à HLC: lowers the brightness of the entire image by suppressing the brightness of the

image’s bright area and reducing the size of the halo area.

à BLC: If enabled, the auto exposure will activate according to the scene so that the object

of the image in the darkest area will be seen better.

Antiflicker:

à Off: disables the anti-flicker function. This is used mostly in outdoor installations.

à 50Hz: reduces flicker in 50Hz lighting conditions.

à 60Hz: reduces flicker in 60Hz lighting conditions.

Smart IR: This function can effectively avoid image overexposure and underexposure by

controlling the brightness of the IR lights according to the actual conditions to make the i

mage more realistic. Please enable it as needed.

White Balance: Adjust the color temperature according to the environment automatically.

Frequency: 50Hz and 60Hz can be optional.

Day/night Mode: Please choose the mode as needed.

Auto= will change to Black & White in low light

Day= Camera will be in color all the time

Night= Camera will be in Black & White all the time

Schedule= set a particular time the camera switches to Night mode or Day mode

Exposure Mode: Choose “Auto” or “Manual”. If manual is chosen, the digital shutte

r speed

can be adjusted.

Corridor Pattern: Corridor viewing modes can be used for situations such as long hallways.

0, 90, 180 and 270 are available. The default value is 0. The video resolution should be 1080P

or below if this function is used.

Image Mirror: Turn the current video image horizontally.

Image Flip: Turn the current video image vertically.

Schedule Settings of Image Parameters:

Click the “Schedule” tab as shown below

1.3.2 Video / Audio Configuration

Go to ImageàVideo / Audio interface as shown below. In this interface, you can set the resolution,

frame rate, bitrate type, video quality etc. subject to the actual network condition.

Transcendent IP Cameras v4: Operation Manual

16

Click “Audio” tab to go to the interface

shown here.

Three video streams can be adjustable.

Resolution: The higher the resolution is, the clearer the image is.

Frame rate: The higher the frame rate is, the more fluid the video is. However, more storage will

be used.

Bitrate type: Including CBR and VBR. CBR means that no matter how the video changes, the

compression bitrate keeps constant. This will not only facilitate the image quality better in a constant

bitrate but also help to calculate the capa

city of the recording. VBR means that the compression bitrate

can be adjustable according to the change of the video resources. This will help to optimize the

network bandwidth.

Bitrate: Please choose according to the actual network situation.

Video Quality: When VBR is selected, you need to choose image quality. The higher the image

quality you choose, the more bitrate will be required.

I

Frame interval: It is recommended to use the default value. If the value is to high, the read speed of

the group of pictures will be slow resulting in the quality loss of the video.

Video Compression: H264 and H265 are optional. Higher quality of image can be transferred under

limited network bandwidth by using H265 video encoding; however, higher quality of the hardware is

required.

Profile: Baseline, main/high profiles are optional. Baseline profile is mainly used in interactive

application with low complexity and delay. Main/high profile is mainly used for higher coding

requirement.

Send Snapshot: Please select accor

ding to the actual situation.

Video encode slice split: If enabled, you may get a more fluid image even though using a

low-performance PC.

Watermark: If enabled, input the watermark content. You may check the watermark when playing

back

the local recording in the search interface, unless the recording file has been tampered with.

Audio Encoding: G711A and G711U are selectable.

Audio Type: MIC and LIN are selectable.

Set full time schedule for common, day, night mode and specified time schedule for day and night.

Choose “Timing” in the drop-down box of schedule as shown below.
