Encoder
Avigilon™ H.264 HD encoders use many of the same settings as the cameras, but the following settings are only
available to encoders.
Selecting a Port or Channel Option
An encoder can have up to 4 cameras and 4 audio devices connected at one time, so some pages in the web
interface include a set of options for each port or channel on the encoder.
On pages with live video options, like Live View and Motion Detection, you can change the displayed camera by
selecting a
Port
number from the drop down list.
On setup pages without video, the options are divided by video port or audio channel so that different options
can be applied to each.
