Chapter 1

I N T R O D U C T I O N

This manual provides information on installation and operation of the DVN 100-NET video codec. The DVN 100-NET is a standalone, non-PC based, fully embedded video codec capable of encoding and decoding video and audio from an analog video/audio source in real time. It is compatible with any analog camera and incorporates a fully integrated, stereo audio channel and pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) control (RS 485). The DVN 100-NET can also be combined with the powerful DVN 5000 Series platform for video/audio recording and playback, alarm and auxiliary handling, and intelligent motion detection.

The DVN 100-NET uses MPEG4 compression technology implemented in the hardware to provide up to 30 IPS (images per second) for the ultimate in crisp, clear, high resolution, full-frame images. Image resolution consists of 720x576 pixels (PAL) or 720x480 pixels (NTSC), and both image compression and image resolution can be adjusted.

PTZ controls, fully-integrated in DVN 100-NET, are exceptionally responsive with virtually no latency, regardless of the available bandwidth. PTZ-capable cameras can be controlled from any network-connected workstation. Easy, intuitive control of movement is available with the PTZ graphic control panel.

The DVN 100-NET also includes an alarm input and auxiliary relay output. The alarm input can be connected to an input device such as a motion detector or passive infrared detector (PIR), and can be monitored using the VisionPocket and SiteManager client software applications. When the input device triggers an alarm, VisionPocket and SiteManager can detect it in real-time, notify the user, and respond accordingly (trigger an auxiliary relay output, such as sounding an alarm or turning on a light).

NOTEThe faceplate of some DVN 100-NET units may display AUDIO ports labeling that is different from the one described in this manual. However, regardless of the labeling, functionality of those ports is as specified in this document.

Table 3-6: Encoder Setup Options

Setting Description

Name Descriptive name of the encoder (e.g. LAN High Resolution).

Algorithm Hardware compression of video footage for the selected camera – affects the relative image quality and bandwidth.

Video/audio compression codec reference:

MPEG4 CBR (Constant Bit Rate) – Encoder uses a constant amount of bandwidth, according to the bandwidth setting.

MPEG4 ABR (Adaptive/Available Bit Rate) – The encoder will dynamically adjust bandwidth to maintain video quality, but will only use the amount of bandwidth necessary for current motion level. However, it will not exceed the maximum bit rate specified. When the maximum is reached, it will sacrifice quality to avoid exceeding the maximum.

MPEG4 VBR (Variable Bit Rate) – Same as ABR, but with no limit. Will adjust to use all available bandwidth, if necessary, to achieve quality and current motion levels.

The Quality, IPS and Resolution settings will change according to the compression method you select. However, you may change these settings, if desired. The default settings are:

MPEG4 CBR and MPEG4 ABR

Quality: 4096 kbps

IPS: 30

Resolution: Full D1

MPEG4 VBR

Quality: Lowest

IPS: 30

Resolution: Full D1

MPEG4 Adaptive

Quality: Lowest

IPS: 30

Resolution: QCIF

Quality The highest quality and therefore the highest amount of required bandwidth occurs with MPEG4 VBR. The lowest quality and therefore the lowest amount of required bandwidth occurs with MPEG4 CBR.

IPS Number of images processed per second. The smoothness of video footage is directly related to the number of images per second. Images will be smoother at higher IPS rates.

24-10216-13 Rev. – 3-13



Dome/serial

NOTEAudio is not supported in quad view mode. See “DVN 100-NET Quad View Spot Monitor Feature” for more information.

DVN 100-NET Quad View Spot Monitor Feature

The DVN 100-NET Quad View feature enables any DVN 100-NET in decoder mode to display a view of up to four MPEG4 cameras from a DVN 5000 or other DVN 100-NET server (in encoder mode) on a single spot monitor.

A spot monitor configured for quad view mode displays four equal quadrants, with each quadrant displaying a particular camera view. See Figure 3-2.

Figure 3-2: Quad View Architecture with DVN 100-NET Decoder

NOTES Video sources are not limited to cameras connected to a DVN 5000, as

shown in Figure 3-2. A DVN 100-NET in encoder mode can also be used as a video source.

The Quad View feature can also be configured using the SiteManager client software. Refer to the VisionPocket and SiteManager Software User Manual for more information.

The Quad View feature does not support audio, on screen display text, and camera cycling on a spot monitor. However, these features are supported in single view mode.

3-22 24-10216-13 Rev. –



When using the Quad View feature, we strongly recommend limiting each camera to CIF resolution at 30 Frames Per Second (FPS) (or 4CIF resolution at a maximum of 10 FPS). Increasing the resolution and/or FPS will overload the DVN 100-NET CPU, which will delay the time it takes to display the video. When viewing a single video stream, you may use 4CIF at a higher FPS.

Camera video compressed with Wavelet or Enpacta codecs are not supported in quad view mode – only video compressed with the MPEG4 codec can be viewed in this mode. If you add a video source that uses Wavelet or Enpacta compression to a quad view quadrant, the spot monitor will display only a black background.

To configure the DVN 100-NET Quad View feature:

1. Access the Client Setup page. See “Client (Decoder Mode)” on page 3-17.

2. In the Decoders drop-down list, select 4 and click Apply.

3. Configure each AutoConnect Setup page for each camera that will be displayed on the spot monitor connected to the DVN 100-NET decoder. See “Autoconnection” on page 3-18.

4. Click Apply to save your changes on each AutoConnect Setup page you configure.

The Autoconnection list (from top to bottom) determines the quadrants to which the cameras will be assigned. On the spot monitor, quadrants are numbered as follows:

For example, the camera assigned to the first Autoconnection configuration item in the list will be assigned to quadrant 1, the camera assigned to the second Autoconnection configuration item in the list will be assigned to quadrant 2, and so on.

5. Click Save and apply to save your changes.

Date and Time

The Date and Time configuration settings allow you to:

Manually set the current date and time of the DVN 100-NET

Synchronize the DVN 100-NET clock with an Network Time Protocol (NTP) server

Assign a time zone to the DVN 100-NET

Configure Daylight Saving Time (DST) settings
