–
Main window:
With the Preview feature, the camera images in this window may
be displayed with lower resolution (VGA 640 x 480 px) and at a lower frame rate
(up to four frames per second).
–
Camera windows:
The images from the cameras in the small camera windows
are displayed at a lower resolution and lower frame rate (four frames per second)
using the Preview feature.
The
recording of video sequences
always occurs at the resolution and frame rate set
for the individual camera irrespective of the display quality of the live camera images.
If the MxEasy program window is minimized in the task bar or dock, all live images will
automatically be retrieved at a low frame rate (four frames per second). This is the reason
why the live images briefly appear at a lower resolution when you restore the program
window.
4.6 Network Environments: Camera Access From Different Locations
4.6.1 Overview
MxEasy supports access to cameras in different locations – with different network settings.
This way, for example, the cameras in a gas station can be monitored by a laptop located
on site in the local area network (LAN) and later, they can be monitored remotely over the
Internet using a preset DynDNS service. Each scenario requires different network connec-
tion data for the same cameras and it would be time-consuming to have to adjust the
connection data each time you connect with the cameras. MxEasy supports the concept
of a network “environment”.
The environment is a network area in which the access data is set for all cameras. Switching
to a different environment automatically switches the network address data, i.e. the IP
address, DNS name, port, SSL and proxy for all integrated cameras. Because the bandwidth
is normally different for each network and access type, the bandwidth setting described
in the last section is also coupled with the settings for the individual network environment.
Follow these steps to recreate the example described above:
1. Integrate the cameras and set up camera access to the local area network:
– Launch MxEasy (the
Standard
environment is activated).
– Search for the cameras and integrate them into MxEasy (using IP addresses).
– Change the name of environment to
Gas station - local
(under
File >
Environment > Edit Environments
and double-click the name of the environ-
ment:
Standard).
– Set the bandwidth to
High under
Tools > Preferences > Connections
for a fast
LAN connection.
2. Set up external camera access over the internet:
– Set up DynDNS on the DSL router and define ports for the individual cameras.
