The  software  offers  switching  between  different  layouts  as  a  special  feature.  Two

layouts are currently available. In the detailed surface layout, e.g., the LED segments

can be controlled individually and exact zoom positions can be selected. The simple

surface layout is easier to operate and pre-set after the installation.

The selection of the video encoder is very important for the size of the stored video

recordings  and  the  CPU  utilisation.  We  recommend  the  “ffdshow  video  encoder”

included in the installation package with the following settings.

“ffdshow video encoder”-Settings 

 MJPG with 85% JPG-quality

The  video  resolution  can  be  changed  in  the  tab  window  “Hardware”.  The  following

modes  are  available:  FULL-HD  1920x1080,  HD  1280x720  and  PAL  720x576.  In

addition, the data rate can be divided in half, which has an influence on the quality of

the  video  image.  If  the  connection  speed  of  the  WLAN  connection  is  too  slow,  a

reliable  video  playback  can  still  be  achieved  by  lowering  the  video  resolution  and

dividing the data rate in half.

The  ECO  mode  is  a  fully  automatic  control  mode  for  the  lightning,  to  maximize  the

battery  capacity.  The  camera  adjusts  strongly  illuminated  areas  of  the  image

automatically  by  means  of  the  aperture  setting.  This  would  consume  battery

capacities  unnecessarily.  The  ECO  mode  has  three  different  control  modes.

Compared to the normal mode, a little more light is used during the boost mode and

a little less light in the economy mode.

The  video  signal  in  the  camera  can  be  adjusted  via  the  slide  control  for  the  light

intensity  of  the  video.  In this  way,  the  lightning  can  be  regulated  or  darker  areas  in

the image can be made more visible.

The fog compensation calculates a contrast-rich video image if in the channel Mist or

haze.

The video hardware acceleration may relieve the processor while rendering the video

image display. If the existing hardware is not supported, the video image can not be

displayed.  The  connection  to  the  Video  will  fail.  In  this  case,  please  switch  off  the

video hardware acceleration or try another acceleration mode.
