Connection
. The channel connection mode is divided into
two types: Instant and Preset. If you click on
Instant
or
Preset#1~8
, a pop up window appears
to configure channels of an encoder to display. To configure video channels, refer to the
following details about setting options.
Preset name setup
Unlike in the Instant mode setting window, the
Friendly name
option is added in the Preset
mode. Since 8 different preset modes are supported, defining a certain preset mode with a
promptly noticeable name would be helpful for users. Input the desired name on the text box
of
preset name
for an easier recognition of the preset mode.
Selecting a channel for configuration
Select the tab of the desired channel number to configure. To display the channel, select the
Enable check box. If you unselect the check box, the channel will not be displayed on the
screen.

Description
TYPE0

TYPE1

Connect via RTSP standard
The RTSP type is generally for connecting a third party product. If you want to connect the
standard encoders, that can be categorized by TYPE0 or TYPE1, with the RTSP type, make sure
to check the encoder URL has been input correctly according to its session type
(rtsp://hostname or ipaddress:[port]/[session name]). The HTTP port number is required only
for the configuration of TYPE0 and TYPE1.

i
The audio out stream from the decoder to an encoder is only available when
you select TYPE0 (H.264 encoder) for
Encoder Type
. TYPE1 or RTSP is not
supported.
