VPort 25 User’s Manual
Introduction
1-3
Easy web access using standard browsers
There is no need to install new software to access the video encoder, since the embedded web
server allows users to use any popular web browser to access the video encoder from anywhere
over the Internet. As long as you are connected to the network, you will be able to view the same
images seen by your cameras.
Support for SNMP V1, V2c, and V3 for easy network management
More and more IP devices are networked for use on one TCP/IP network. To make management
and maintenance easier, SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) can be used to monitor
all of these IP devices.
Built-in 3 area-selectable Video Motion Detection (VMD)
External sensors are not required, since the video channel can be configured to detect motion in 3
areas, making it easy to set up a security system in either your office or the field. And the
customizable settings allow you to tune the system for both object size and sensitivity, making the
video encoder adaptable to different environments.
Weekly schedule for automated surveillance
The user-defined time period will check security settings on a weekly basis, and send notifications
or drive external devices, making the VPort 25 suitable for more versatile applications.
Flexible I/O control for external devices
1 opto-isolated sensor inputs and 1 relay outputs are provided to control external devices, giving
system integrators the option of turning an analog system into an advanced security system.
A case-open sensor for triggering alarms
The VPort 25 has a built in case-open sensor for sending alarm messages if the upper case is
opened without permission. The alarm will be sent to the administrator’s email inbox, or trigger
the relay output.
Moxa SoftDVR Lite IP Surveillance Software
To extend the video camera’s capabilities, Moxa SoftDVR™ Lite IP Surveillance Software, which
supports a maximum of 4 cameras in quad, is included free of charge, allowing users to turn their
PC into a digital video recorder. Scheduling or one-click recording saves important images on
your local hard disk, and the reliable motion detection and instant warning features make you
ready for any situation. A quick and easy to use search and playback function lets you easily find
the image you’re looking for, so that you can inspect the images more carefully, and also save the
output to an AVI file.
SDK support for developers
The high-performance video encoder can be integrated into many applications—without busting
your budget—and the complete programming interface of Moxa VPort SDK PLUS makes the
developer’s job easy and straightforward. To ask about SDK requirements, please contact a Moxa
sales representative for details and an application form.
