Figure 1.4

• Video Codec:Select between MJPEG and MPEG4.

• Frame Scale:Select between Full Frame and Half Frame.

• Image Settings:

Clicking on the button brings up the live camera window withthe following Image Settings as shown in Figure 1.5 (those that appeargreyed out are not supported on the Capture Card / IP Camera):




Figure 1.5

o Frame Rate:

Set the capture frame rate for the Camera.

o Compression Ratio:The compression ratio is selectable per camera and defines thequality of the compressed image. The higher the compression ratio,the smaller the frame size, and the lower the image quality. As theslider bar is moved, the compression ratio is changed from low to

high on a scale from 0 to 100. High represents the highestcompression ratio and consequently the lowest picture quality whilelow represents the lowest compression ratio and hence the highestpicture quality. The picture quality is a function of the camera and istherefore settable per camera. The Frame Size depicts the actualcompressed frame size resulting from the selected compression ratio.

Below the Compression Ratio setting is the Average Frame size inKilobytes. This enables camera picture quality to be set in conjunctionwith the image size allowing storage requirements to be determined

as the compression ratio is changed.

o Brightness:Set the Image Brightness.

o Contrast:Set the Image Contrast.

o Hue:

Set the Image Brightness.

o Saturation (V and H):Set the Image Saturation in the Vertical and Horizontal directions.

o Video Motion Detection (VMD): Set the VMD Parameters if VMD has been enabled for this camera.

See Video Motion Detection later in this section.

Figure 1.6

• Recording:The record options for each camera are depicted in Figure 1.6 below:

o Never:Selecting this option results in no recording unless an alarm conditionhas been triggered. Consequently, this would be used for Event Only

recording. This can be scheduled by selecting the white option andupdating the schedule.

o Always: Selecting this option results in continuous recording.

o Armed:

Selecting this option will enable this camera to be recordedcontinuously when the alarm system is armed. All images captured

will be saved when in this mode. When the system is disarmed,images will only be saved when an alarm or an operator triggers anevent. This can be scheduled by selecting the green option and

updating the schedule.

o Disarmed:Selecting this radio button will enable this camera to be recorded

continuously when the alarm system is disarmed. All images capturedwill be saved when in this mode. When the system is armed, imageswill only be saved when an alarm or an operator triggers an event.This can be scheduled by selecting the cyan option and updating theschedule.

o Motion:

If Video Motion Detection (VMD) has been enabled and this option is

selected, then data will only be recorded when motion is detected.This can be scheduled by selecting the yellow option and updating theschedule.



©2000-2007 PLANETCCTV INC. - 11 -

o Record at specific times:Selecting the appropriate colour option allows specific times over a 7-

day period to be enabled for recording mode. During the times shownin Figure 1.7 where the area is shaded yellow, recording will onlyoccur when motion is detected. At all other times, all images will berecorded for the camera, as depicted by the green shading.

Figure 1.7



©2000-2007 PLANETCCTV INC. - 12 -

• Video Motion Detection:

This can be enabled per camera by checking the check box as shown in Figure

1.4 Clicking on the button brings up the live camera window withthe VMD grid overlaid on top of the image as shown in Figure 1.8. The VMD gridcan be added or removed using the “Display VMD Grid” check box. The imagesettings are automatically scrolled to the VMD settings.

Figure 1.8

The areas shaded in blue are the areas of the screen that any VMD detectedwill result in no alarm being triggered. VMD in areas not shaded in blue willresult in an alarm being triggered. In the VMD window shown in Figure 1.8,

motion is depicted by the grid changing colour from green to red, for theareas that motion has been detected. Red areas will not show up in theshaded blue areas as these areas are excluded from triggering events. Thisenables the user to select exactly which parts of the screen should havealarm triggering for VMD detection. Even if certain areas of the screen havebeen masked out in blue, VMD detected in these areas is saved as part of the data files to allow a Smart Search capability on stored data.

*** PLEASE NOTE ***

VMD Parameters are used for both VMD and Smart Search. Smart searchWI LL NOT WORK without the VMD parameters being set-up.



©2000-2007 PLANETCCTV INC. - 13 -

The VMD settings are defined as follows:

o Pixel:This parameter represents the percentage change in each individualpixel. The range is from least sensitive to most sensitive, 0-100%. Afigure of 100% would result in a motion-detected flag being raised if there was any change in a particular pixel. The figure of 70 shown inthe graphic would result in only the pixels that have more than a

30% change being flagged as having detected motion. In this way, allof the pixels in the picture are measured against the previous frameand if any frame shows a percentage change greater than the 30% -

the figure selected for pixels, a flag is raised against the pixel.

o Block:The block setting represents one of the green grid blocks shown inthe figure 2.10. Each block represents 32 x 32 = 1024 pixels. Theblock parameter is a measure of the number of pixels within a gridblock that have changed. The block parameter works in the same

way, as the Pixel parameter except it measures the number of pixelsflagged in a particular block. If the block parameter is set to 70 as itis in Figure 2.10, if more than 30% of the pixels are flagged ashaving detected motion, the block is flagged as having detectedmotion.

o Frame:

The frame parameter is a measure of the number of adjacent blocksthat have changed within a captured frame. If, for example, only 20

blocks have been left un-shaded for VMD, and a parameter of 90 ischosen for frame setting, 2 of the blocks adjacent to each other (10%) would have to have been flagged as having motion detected forthe frame to be flagged as having motion detected. This will result ina VMD event being raised.



©2000-2007 PLANETCCTV INC. - 14 -

Figure 1.9

The Video Motion Detection options are detailed below. All cameras haveVMD enabled all the time. The following options depict when VMD actually

triggers an event.

o Never:Selecting this option results in no VMD events triggering alarms.

o Always:Selecting this radio button will result in VMD events being triggered

at all times.

o Armed: Selecting this radio button will result in VMD events being triggeredonly when the system is armed.

o Disarmed:

Selecting this radio button will result in VMD events being triggeredonly when the system is disarmed.

o Record at specific times:Selecting the appropriate color will result in VMD events beingtriggered at specific times over a 7-day period. During the timesshown in Figure 1.9 where the area is shaded white, VMD events will

not trigger i.e. during working hours. At all other times, VMD eventswill trigger.

• Notify Basestation of new alarms:If this option is selected, when an event triggers an alarm, an image from

the associated camera will be sent to the Basestation defined.

•

Connect using a local area network:Select this option if the Basestation and servers are connected to the sameWAN/LAN,

• Connecting using a modem:

Select this option if the Basestation and servers are connected via a dial-uplink. This option requires the telephone number of the Basestation to beentered

IP Name/address: The Basestation runs on Windows 2000 / XP and consequently, a connectionfrom a server needs to be authenticated by Windows 2000 / XP before images

can be passed to the Basestation application. The IP address of the Basestation,along with a user ID and password are defined here to and are used by the

server to establish an authenticated connection.

The Control Panel User Interface is shown in Figure 2.01 below:

Figure 2.1

The General Tab under the PlanetCCTV Basestation Properties tab includes the

following configuration options:

• Name: The Basestation name is entered here.

• IP Address:

IP address of the Basestation.

• IP P orts:TCPIP Port Numbers used by the Basestation. These should be set inconjunction with the Firewall Administrator so that these ports can beenabled on any Firewalls between the Client, the Server, and theBasestation.

• Name:As the heading implies, this is the name of the server which you would like to define.

• Connection:

There are two options here, local area network or connection via modem. The latterrequires a telephone number to be defined.

• Speed:This defines the Net Available bandwidth on the communication link. i.e. thebandwidth available for use by the PlanetCCTV application. It is important to enter anaccurate figure as this figure is used to calculate the data transfer rates for audio andvideo when audio is enabled, with priority being given to the audio stream. Settingthe value too low will result in unnecessary delays in receiving video updates. Settingthe value to high will result in audio break-up as there will not be enough bandwidthavailable for the audio data.

• IP Name/ Address:

The Name or IP address of desired PlanetCCTV Server is entered here.

• IP Port:TCPIP Port Number used by the Server. This should be set in conjunction with theFirewall Administrator so that the port can be enabled on any Firewalls between theServer and the Basestation.

• User name:A valid username on the desired PlanetCCTV Server is entered here.

• Password: The user’s password is entered here. The password can be saved so that the userdoes not have to re-enter each time a connection is made or the user can beprompted to enter the password each time a connection is made

• Auto Connect while viewing an alarm:If this option is enabled, upon receiving an alarm, the Client will automaticallyconnect back to the server from which the alarm was received and display imagesfrom the relevant camera on the server.

Chapter 3: Configuration of the PlanetCCTVServer Service

The P lanetCCTV Server Service Properties

Window s 2000 / Window s XP Server Service Properties

By default, the Server Service users the system account. In order to enableremote archiving, the server application requires the user authenticationprivileges that cannot be granted to the system account. Therefore, in order to

achieve this, an equivalent to the system account needs to be set-up.

To add a new user to be used for the Server Service account, load the ComputerManagement Console under Control Panel / Admin Tools and select the User andgroups section as shown in Figure 3.1.

Figure 3.1

Select the New User option from the context (right click) menu and add a newuser as shown in Figure 3.2.



©2000-2007 PLANETCCTV INC. - 54 -

Figure 3.2

Important features to note are that the account has the option Password neverexpires and User cannot change password ticked. This will prevent the serverbeing “locked out” by the operating system when prompts for changing thepassword in accordance with the settings within the system policy. The accountalso needs to be a member of the System Administrators Group and needs

certain user right assignments. The dialog for adding user right assignments isshown in Figure 3.3.

Figure 3.3



©2000-2007 PLANETCCTV INC. - 55 -

These are added by selecting the appropriate rights in turn and adding the

appropriate user account to the user right assignment. For a user account to beused to run as a service, the following rights are needed.

• Act as part of the operating system

• Log on as a service

Select the appropriate right assignment and from the context (right click) menu,select Security. Figure 3.4 shows the dialog for modifying user rightassignments.

Figure 3.4

Click on the button to add users to the selected right assignment asshown in Figure 3.5.
