Note
Image display
•
Screen content varies by model number.
•
If no camera image is displayed, the appropriate viewer program (ActiveX Controls) may not be
installed. See Page 16, Page 17, or Page 19 for more information.
•
If the camera image is not displayed immediately or correctly, click your web browser’s refresh button
to display the latest camera image.
•
The image refresh rate may vary depending on network conditions, PC performance, the number of
people accessing the camera, and the type of objects being viewed.
•
When the camera is in a dark environment, color night view mode (if enabled; see Page 142)
automatically brightens the image, however the image refresh rate may decrease (i.e., images may
appear choppy) and overall image quality may decrease (i.e., images may appear grainy).
•
When the camera is in a dark environment, white or colored dots or horizontal lines may be displayed
in the camera image. This is a characteristic of the camera’s image sensor, and is not a malfunction.
•
A gray screen (MJPEG, MPEG-4) or black screen (H.264) is displayed instead of the camera image
in the following situations:
–
The camera’s privacy mode (see Page 170) has been turned on. If viewing H.264 or MPEG-4
images, the last image displayed before privacy mode was turned on is displayed for about 20
seconds before the screen turns gray or black.
–
Too many users are accessing the camera. When the maximum number of accesses has been
exceeded (refer to the tables in Page 48), additional users will see a gray or black screen, and
[The maximum number of accesses has been exceeded.] will be displayed under the camera
image. Click your web browser’s refresh button periodically until you are allowed to view video
images, or use the [Refresh Rate] selector to select to view still images.
–
The camera is configured to not display images at this time of day (see Page 166). [The operation
time has ended.] will be displayed under the camera image. If viewing H.264 or MPEG-4 images,
the last image displayed before the operation time ended is displayed for about 20 seconds before
the screen turns gray or black.
•
If old images are displayed when you access the camera, change the browser’s temporary Internet
files setting (see Page 199).
Related settings
•
The default settings for [Refresh Rate], [Resolution], and [Image Quality] that are used each time the
single camera page is accessed can be changed (see Page 159).
•
Using the [Refresh Rate] selector in the operation bar, you can select whether video images (H.264,
MPEG-4, MJPEG) are displayed, or still images that are refreshed periodically (3 seconds, 5 seconds,
etc.) are displayed.
•
To reduce data traffic when other users are accessing the camera, you can configure the camera to
automatically switch from displaying video images to still images. Set the [Video Display Time] for
general users (see Page 152) and for guest users (see Page 155).
