2.3 Parameter Setting

In this menu, you can configure the camera to suit the specific install requirements.

2.3.1 Video setting

In this menu, you can set the image video flow of the IP camera, to optimize for network flow. For example,

you can reduce the frame number at a low transmission speed to obtain a high-quality image or reduce the image

quality to obtain a smooth picture; the following figure is the video parameter setting recommended under normal

conditions.

Bit rate: the transmission maximum value of the bit rate data, such as 2048KBps is equal to the size of the 2

MBps image data transmitted per each second and is equal to the maximum value of storing the 256 Kb data

document in a computer per each minute; and it is calculated that the maximum video recording volume of a

video camera at a code rate of 2048 KBps for a hour is 0.9 Gb.

Frame number: Set the maximum number of frames per second.

Bit Rate Type: CBR (Constant bit-rate)/ VBR (Variable bit-rate). Depending on the available network capacity,

the user can tailor the camera bit rate function to better utilize available bandwidth.

Picture quality: This will determine the picture quality of the camera as it is encoding in frames per second.
