4. F.A.Q. (FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS) AND TROUBLESHOOTING 

 

 

Q:

 What algorithm is used to compress the digital image? 

A:

 The Vega Video utilizes the JPEG image compression technology providing high quality images for users.  

JPEG  is  adopted  since  it  is  a  standard  for  image  compression  and  can  be  applied  to  various  web  browser 
and application software without the need to install extra software. 
 

Q:

 Can I change the wireless antenna attached to the Vega Video? 

A:

  The  wireless  antenna  can  be  changed  for  a  variety  of  reasons  such  as  extending  the  wireless 

transmission range. The connectors must be male SMA Reverse Polarity connector type. 
 

Q:

 What is the wireless transmission range for the Vega Video? 

A:

  Generally  the  wireless  distance  can  go  up  to  100  meters  indoors  and  up  to  300  meters  outdoors.    The 

range is limited by the number of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals must pass through.  
Typical ranges vary depends on the types of materials and background Radio Frequency (RF) noise in your 
home or business and the configuration setting of your network environment.   
 

Q:

 Can the Vega Video be used out-doors? 

A:

  The  Vega  Video  is  not  weatherproof.    It  needs  to  be  equipped  with  a  weatherproof  case  to  be  used 

outdoors. 

 
Q:

 What network cabling is required for the Vega Video? 

A:

 The Vega Video uses Category 5 UTP cable allowing 10 Base-T and 100 Base-T networking. 

 

Q:

 Can the Vega Wireless Camera be connected on the network if it consists of only private IP addresses? 

A:

 The Vega Wireless Camera can be connected to LAN with private IP addresses. 

 

Q:

 Why does a series of broad vertical white line appears through out the image? 

A:

 A likely issue is that the CMOS sensor becomes overloaded when the light source is too bright such as 

direct  exposure  to  sunlight  or  halogen  light.    You  need  to  reposition  the  camera  into  a  more  shaded  area 
immediately as this will damage the CMOS sensor. 
 

 

 

WARNING:  Direct  exposure  to  sunlight  may  cause  permanent  damage  to  the  CMOS  sensor.  

Therefore  do  not  expose  the  Vega  Wireless  Camera’s  lens  directly  to  sunlight.  The  Vega 
Wireless  Camera  is  designed  for  indoor  usage  and  if  your  application  requires  prolonged 
exposure to sunlight, a sun visor is recommended to protect the Vega Wireless Camera.
