QoS (Quality of Service) can alleviate network delay and network congestion by prioritizing different services.
The same QoS rules must also be configured on the router or network switch.
If the network connection between the camera and the peer (stream receiving address) is disconnected, the camera can store videos according to the configured recording schedule; and after the network connection is restored, the camera can retransfer the video stored during the interruption period to the stream receiving address on the request of the peer.

Bit Rate(Kbps) |
Set the bit rate. Range: 128 to 16384. NOTE! The bit rate range may vary with device model. |
|
Bitrate Type |
Select the bitrate type. •CBR: The camera keeps a specific bit rate by varying the quality of video streams.
•VBR: The camera keeps the quality of video streams as constant as possible by varying the bit
rate. |
|
Image Quality |
Configurable when Bitrate Type is set to VBR. The closer the slider is to Quality, the higher the bit rate, and the higher the image quality. The closer the slider is to Bit Rate, the lower the bit rate, and the image quality will be affected. |
|
I Frame Interval |
Set the number of frames between I-frames. A shorter interval presents better image quality but consumes more bandwidth and storage. |

Exposure Mode |
Select the exposure mode. •Automatic: The camera automatically set the optimum shutter speed according to the scene.
•Custom: User can set exposure parameters as needed.
•Shutter Priority: The camera adjusts shutter as priority to adjust the image quality.
•Iris Priority: The camera adjusts iris as priority to adjust the image quality.
•Indoor 50Hz: Reduce stripes by limiting shutter frequency.
•Indoor 60Hz: Reduce stripes by limiting shutter frequency.
•Manual: Fine-tune image quality by setting shutter, gain and iris manually.
•Low Motion Blur: Control the minimum shutter to reduce motion blur in faces captured in motion.
|
|
Shutter(s) |
Shutter is used to control the light that comes into the lens. A fast shutter speed is ideal for scenes in quick motion. A slow shutter speed is ideal for scenes that change slowly. NOTE! •This parameter is configurable when Exposure Mode is set to Manual, Shutter Priority, or Custom.
•If Slow Shutter is disabled, the reciprocal of the shutter speed must be greater than the frame
rate. |
|
Gain |
Control image signals so that the camera can output standard video signals in different light conditions. NOTE! This parameter is configurable when Exposure Mode is set to Manual or Custom. |
|
Slow Shutter |
Increase image brightness in low light conditions. NOTE! This parameter is configurable when Exposure Mode is not set to Iris Priority and Image Stabilization is disabled. |
|
Slowest Shutter |
Set the slowest shutter speed for exposure. |
|
Compensation |
Adjust the compensation value as required to achieve the desired image effect. NOTE! This parameter is configurable when Exposure Mode is not set to Manual. |
|
Restore Auto Exposure(min) |
Set the duration for the camera to restore automatic exposure mode. |
|
Metering Control |
Set how the camera measures the intensity of light. •Center-Weighted Average Metering: Measure light mainly in the central part of the image.
•Evaluative Metering: Measure light in the specified area of the image.
•Spot Metering: Similar to evaluative metering. But it cannot increase the brightness of images.
•Face Metering: Adjust image quality in poor lighting conditions by controlling the brightness of
captured faces in face scenes. NOTE! This parameter is configurable when Exposure Mode is not set to Manual. |
|
Day/Night Mode |
•Automatic: The camera automatically switches between day mode and night mode according to the ambient lighting condition to output optimum images.
•Day: The camera outputs high-quality images in daylight conditions.
•Night: The camera outputs high-quality images in low-light conditions.
•Input Boolean: The camera switches between day mode and night mode according to the
Boolean value input from a connected third-party device. NOTE! The Input Boolean option is only available on certain models. |
|
Day/Night Sensitivity |
Light threshold for switching between day mode and night mode. A higher sensitivity value means that the camera is more sensitive to the change of light and is therefore more easily to switch between day mode and night mode. NOTE! This parameter is configurable when Day/Night Mode is set to Automatic. |
|
Day/Night Switching(s) |
Set the length of time before the camera switches between day mode and night mode after the switching conditions are met. NOTE! This parameter is configurable when Day/Night Mode is set to Automatic. |
|
WDR |
Enable WDR to ensure clear images in high contrast conditions. NOTE! This parameter is configurable when Exposure Mode is set to Automatic, Custom, Shutter Priority, Indoor 50Hz or Indoor 60Hz and when Image Stabilization and Defog are disabled. |
|
WDR Level |
Adjust the WDR level. NOTE! Level 7 or higher is recommended if there is a high contrast between the bright and dark areas in the scene. In the case of low contrast, it is recommended to disable WDR or use level 1 to 6. |
|
WDR On/Off Sensitivity |
When WDR is set to Automatic, adjust the parameter to change the WDR switching sensitivity. |
|
Suppress WDR Stripes |
When enabled, the camera automatically adjusts the slow shutter frequency according to the light frequency to minimize stripes in the image. |

regional overexposure. Some areas might be dark if you select this option. This option is recommended if you focus on the clarity of the monitoring center area. •Road: This mode offers a strong overall illumination and is recommended for monitoring wide-
range scenes, for example, road. •Park: This mode offers a uniform illumination and is recommended for monitoring small-range
scenes with many obstacles, for example, park. •Custom Level: This mode allows you to manually control the intensity of illumination.
•Custom Level(Always On): In this mode, the illumination is always on.

NOTE!
The camera may falsely detect car windows or static reflective objects as fire points due to their high temperatures caused by sunlight. For example, Moving Object is set to 150%, the object is a car that is 1m long. Fire detection detects fire once per second, totally 3 times. If the vehicle’s movement distance is greater than or equal to 1.5 meters in any of the three detections, then the ratio of the car movement distance to the car length is greater than or equal to 150%, then the object will not be considered a fire point and will be filtered.

Detection Type |
•Sudden Rise: Detects sudden rising sound volume, and triggers an alarm when the rise of volume
exceeds the difference. •Sudden Fall: Detects sudden falling sound volume, and triggers an alarm when the fall of volume
exceeds the difference. •Sudden Change: Detects sudden rising and falling sound volume, and triggers an alarm when the
rise or fall of volume exceeds the difference. •Threshold: Triggers an alarm when the volume exceeds the threshold.
|
|
Difference/T hreshold |
•Difference: The difference between two sound volumes. The camera triggers an alarm when the
rise or fall of volume exceeds the difference (range: 0-400). This parameter is applicable when the detection type is Sudden Rise, Sudden Fall, or Sudden Change. •Threshold: The camera triggers an alarm when the sound volume exceeds the threshold (range: 0-400). This parameter is applicable when the detection type is Threshold.

The RS485 port is used for data transmission between the camera and external third-party devices for PTZ control, OSD, audio collection, illumination control, etc. The serial port parameters configured on the camera must match that of the connected external device.
Serial ports may not be available on all camera models.
Go to Setup > System > Ports & Devices > Serial Port.
Set Port Mode and configure the parameters.
• PTZ control
To control the PTZ using a third-party device, set Port Mode to PTZ Control.
By sending PELCO-D instructions through the RS485, you can control PTZ without using the PTZ control panel.
(1) Set Port Mode to Local PTZ Control.
(2) Configure the parameters.

• Trans-channel
Used to transmit data between the RS485 port and the third-party device.
This feature is available only on certain camera models.

Receive serial port information from the third-party device through the RS485 port and then overlay the parsed information on the OSD.
In order for the camera to correctly parse the received serial port information, make sure the serial port information sent from the third-party device conforms to our data formats. Contact our technical support for more information.
