A special IP address (class D address) must be configured for multicast operation in a
multicast-enabled network.
The network must support group IP addresses and the Internet Group Management Protocol
(IGMP V2). The address range is from 225.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255.
The multicast address can be the same for multiple streams. However, it will be necessary to
use a different port in each case so that multiple data streams are not sent simultaneously
using the same port and multicast address.
Enable
To enable simultaneous data reception on several receivers you need to activate the multicast
function. To do this, check the box. You can then enter the multicast address.
Multicast Address
Enter a valid multicast address for each stream to be operated in multicast mode (duplication
of the data streams in the network).
With the setting 0.0.0.0 the encoder for the relevant stream operates in multi-unicast mode
(copying of data streams in the unit). The AutoDome 700 Series supports multi-unicast
connections for up to five simultaneously connected receivers.
Port
Assign a different port to each data stream if there are simultaneous data streams at the same
multicast address.
Enter the port address of the required stream here.
Streaming
Click the checkbox to activate multicast streaming mode for the relevant stream. An enabled
stream is indicated by a check mark.
Multicast packet TTL
You can enter a value to specify how long the multicast data packets are active on the
network. This value must be greater than one if multicast is to be run via a router.
4.52 FTP Posting
You can save individual JPEG images on an FTP server at specific intervals. You can then
retrieve these images at a later date to reconstruct alarm events if required.
File name
You can select how file names will be created for the individual images that are transmitted.
– Overwrite
The same file name is always used and any existing file will be overwritten with the
current file.
– Increment
A number from 000 to 255 is added to the file name and automatically incremented by 1.
When it reaches 255 it starts again from 000.
NOTICE!
The settings must be made individually for each stream.
NOTICE!
Duplication of data places a heavy demand on the unit and can lead to impairment of the
image quality under certain circumstances.
