Caution
Note:
Stream 3 will be used by the Web User Interface when no Quicktime application is present on the PC. To obtain
the cameras highest resolution video on the Web User Interface, Quicktime should be downloaded and installed.
Alarm Video
Edge Recording
Camera can directly record specific events (MD, DIO and Face detection) directly to SD card. User can chose
either Stream 1, 2 or 3 to be recorded. When setting up motion detection on the camera, both streams can be
used. Alarm Video is configured in the Edge Recording > Record Settings menu.
Integration with other Illustra API Clients
The 3 video streams can be configured via the Web User Interface, as detailed here, or via the Illustra API
interface. Changes made to the streams via either method will be applied and the video will be displayed
according to the configuration.
Opening the Web User Interface live video will allow the stream to be shared with the Illustra API and will
minimize the impact on camera resources.
Configuring the Video Stream
