When you select Motion detection, the Network IP Camera detects a motion triggered by camera lens. To detect motion the camera compares a previous image from present image. When the motion is detected, the camera recognizes the data changing through comparing the previous image data with present one.
Periodically.. The Network IP Camera itself is to be triggered automatically by setting. You may set the periodical event time for certain hour. Motion detection sensitivity This is to configure the level of motion detection sensitivity. The level is composed of 9 levels from 0 to 9. As the level is higher, the sensitivity is much higher
(2) Image capture option 40 NOTE In a dark place without light, it may never detect the motion because its image wouldnt be changed at all. NOTE In case of level 9 for sensitivity, the camera may detect a tiny motion even a light changes, so the event can be trigger so often. In case of level 1 for sensitivity, the camera may not detect a tiny motion, though it can be missed some little motion.
It is strongly recommended to configure it as the level of 3 ~6 for sensitivity. CAUTION Do not use motion detection function for security purpose because Motion detection function is only developed to use for monitoring purpose. When you want to use it on the purpose of security, you should use certain sensor such as infrared, motion sensor according to your purpose. NETWORK IP CAMERA Users Guide This is to configure image capture option when an event is triggered. Before Event You may set the starting time to capture image before event is triggered. (Input limitation is from 0 to 21 seconds.) After Event You may set the finishing time to capture image after event is triggered. (Input limitation is from 0 to 21 seconds.) Image capture frame rate Set the frame rate from 1 to 15fps when the image is being captured. Image file name You may designate image file name to send Email or FPT after image is captured. All captured image are saved as a JPG file. (Example. File name 000.JPG) Append to the image file name You may append some information to Image file Name Camera IP address A. Camera IP address : Ex) file name _192.168.1.19.JPG B. Date and time : Ex) file name_20020218150030.JPG C. Trigger condition flag In case of choosing Activation of digital input port, D may be appended to image file name. Ex) file name_D.JPG In case of choosing Periodically every, P is appended to image file name. Ex) file name_P.JPG D. Image sequence number If you select this option, you may classify the file that has same extend name. Consecutive numbers are from 000 to 999 Ex) When you designate file name as camera and select Image sequence number, the file name appears camera001.JPG, camera002.JPG .camera999.JPG
(3) Trigger Output 41 Image capture option limitation Configuration for image capture option affects memory capacity. If you configure this option to excess memory size, the Warning message Not enough memory appears.
The total image capture frame rate must be limited 45 fps due to memory size. (Before event time + After event time) x Image capture frame rate must be under 45.
For example, in case you configure Before event as 3 seconds, After event time as 2 seconds and image capture frame as 3fps, the total image capture frame rate is ( 3 + 2) X 3 = 15 fps. NETWORK IP CAMERA Users Guide This is to configure digital output states and control script.

NETWORK IP CAMERA Users Guide B. FAQ
Frequently Asked Question (FAQ)
Asks for the features
1. What is Network IP Camera? Network IP Camera is a built-in web server camera. Network IP Camera is consisted of 3 components as Camera Module, Web server, and networking device. Network IP Camera captures, processes, and transmits digital through network. As Network IP Camera itself operates as a Web Server, it does not require other dedicated server connection as PC does. By installing Network IP Camera itself at the desired site, your may monitor views from remote site.
2. What kinds of devices are needed to install? It needs no other equipment except power and network cable.
3. What is maximum transmission speed? Network IP Camera compresses and transmits 30frames per second on 10 base-T Network. However this speed is not equal to every user. Because transmission is depends on performance of users PC and network bandwidth. And there are two viewpoints to calculate transmission speed.
The maximum transmission speed is 30 frames per second from users viewpoint. However, it does not mean that everyone can receive 30frames peer second. Because transmission speed also depends on user PC performance and network line capacity.
Network IP Camera can transmit to up to 25 users simultaneously. If 5 users are receiving 10 Frames per second, the total frames that Network IP Camera to transmit are 50 frames per second. In this case, Network IP Camera transmits 50 per second from its viewpoint. And the total size of 50 frames images is under the network bandwidth. When Network IP Camera is on 10 base-T network, the line can transmit 123 frames of 3KB-images per second.
4. What is the maximum number of users to access Network IP Cameras simultaneously? Network IP Camera can support up to 40 persons at the same time. The capacity for users is fixed to 35 persons to support already accessed users at rapid transmission speed. When 35 49 persons access the camera, users can receive 1 frames per about 5 seconds. NETWORK IP CAMERA Users Guide Asks for the Installing and Running Network IP Camera
1. What network Line can be used with Network IP Camera? All network lines (except telephone lines) can be used, although telephone lines may be used through PCs to connect to Network IP Camera remotely. Network limes such as xDSL, cable modem. that use dynamic IP addresses require a different installation process than a dedicated line that has a static IP address.
2. What is the maximum extension range of network lines? UTP Cable that is used for the Ethernet can be extended up to 100 meters without bridging. However existing UTP Cable can be extended up to 240 meters without bridging.
3. Does Network IP Camera need a special rack or case for outdoor use? Originally, Network IP Camera itself cant be weatherproofed. Therefore, it has to be equipped with weatherproof case if Network IP Camera is used for outdoor, like existing CCTV or something.
4. If Network IP Camera consists of only permanent IP address and several private IP addresses, can Network IP Camera be connected to the network with a private IP address? Network IP Camera can be assigned a private IP address on a network with a permanent IP address. If the network is a Class C network (255.255.255.XXX), then Network IP Camera may be assigned any available number in the last room (represented by XXX). However, since Network IP Camera is a web server, it can be designated as a local server. Any device on a LAN can be designed as the local server through the router. Designating Network IP Camera as the local server will make it easier for people outside the LAN to view real-time images form Network IP Camera.
5. If the network consists of only private IP address, can Network IP Camera be connected at the network? Network IP Camera can be connected to LAN having only private IP addresses, but only people on the local network can access Network IP Camera. Networks with narrow bandwidth may not be able to support several Network IP Cameras connected simultaneously.

Your internet Service Provider (ISP) provides you at least one IP address which you use to connect to the Internet. The address you get may be static, meaning it never changes, or dynamic, meaning its likely to change periodically. Just how often it changes, depends on your ISP. A dynamic IP address complicates remote access since you may not know what your current WAN IP address is when you want to access your network over the Internet. The solution to the dynamic IP address problem comes in the form of a dynamic DNS service.
The Internet uses DNS servers to lookup domain names and translates them into IP addresses. Domain names, such as www.intellinte-network.com , are just easy to remember aliases for IP addresses. A dynamic DNS service is unique because it provides a means of updating your IP address so that your listing will remain current when your IP address changes. There are several excellent DDNS services available on the Internet and best of all theyre free to use. Two such several excellent DDNS services are www.ods.org (ODS) and www.DynDNS.org. Youll need to register with the service and set up the domain name of your choice to begin using it. Please refer the the home page or the service for detailed instructions.
A DDNS service works by uploading your WAN IP address to its servers periodically, your gateway- router may support DDNS directly, in which case you can enter your DDNS account information into your router and it will update the DDNS servers automatically when your IP address changes. Please consult your routers documentation for more information. If your router does not support DDNS, you can run a small client utility on any PC on your network which will perform the updating. The client utility is usually provided for free by the service. Check the services web page for further information, terms and conditions.

69 NETWORK IP CAMERA Users Guide I. High Speed Solutions
This information is to help you access high-speed Internet services such as xDSL or a cable modem connection. However, most high-speed Internet Services provide you with some external IP addresses, there are several practical issues that should be considered.
AVAILABLE IP ADDRESS
ISP (Internet Service Provider) will provide you with several external static IP addresses ideally in which case you can assign any one of these to your Network IP Camera to make it fully accessible over the Internet. However, if your service provider supplies you with only one IP number which is often the case this IP number is normally assigned to your PC-leaving no connection available for your Network IP Camera.
What can you do if your ISP is unable to provide you with an IP number? There are a number of other options what you may like to consider: including:
NAT BOX
Short for Network Address Translation, NAT (Network Address Translation) is Internet standard that allows a local-area network (LAN) to use one set of IP addresses for internal traffic and a second set of addresses for external traffic. A NAT box located where your LAN meets the Internet will handle all of the necessary IP address translations and provides:
Internal IP addresses that are unique to your network with no possibility of conflict with IP Addresses used by other companies and organizations. The possibility of combining multiple ISDN connections into a single Internet connection. An effective firewall for hiding internal IP addresses
NAT Feature in Windows 2000
Utilize the NAT feature in Windows 2000 to allow multiple Ethernet cards in your PC, and you can then use one of port for the Internet and the other for your internal network. With this solution, you can let your Network IP Camera upload image streams to an external Web Server that is maintained and located with your ISP. 70
NETWORK IP CAMERA Users Guide ROUTERS AND FIREWALLS
Another solution is to use one of several small routers/firewalls currently available on the market. These provide the necessary NAT functionality and allow complete independence for your PC, which can be switched off or rebooted without affecting the image transmission from your Network IP Camera.
WINGATE SERVER SOFTWARE:
Running on a single Windows 95/98/2000 or NT computer, this software allows multiple users simultaneous access to the Internet through a LAN or higher-speed line, such as xDSL or cable modem connection; and effectively shares a single Internet connection with almost any type of client computer running TCP/IP.
For more advanced users, the WinGate 3.0 Standard and Pro versions also allow the administrator to change the IP bindings so that external requests may be routed specifically to your Network IP Camera running behind the WinGate software.
71 NOTE NAT, or Network Address Translator, Virtual LAN) A hardware device currently being developed and used to extend the Internet addresses already in use. NAT has been suggested as an alternative to adopting IPv6 (IPng). It allows duplicate IP addresses to be used within a corporation and unique addresses outside. It is defined in RFC 1631. NETWORK IP CAMERA Users Guide J. Reinstating the Factory Default Settings
This information explains instructions in detail on how to set the default settings in the Network IP Camera. In certain circumstances it may become necessary to restart or reinstate the Factory Default settings for your Network IP Camera: This is performed by pressing the Reset Button, or using Hyper Terminal Setting. Follow these instructions to reinstate the product factory default settings
By pressing Reset button.
Using a paper clip or any sharp pin, press the reset button on the backside of Network IP Camera. Switch off the Network IP Camera by disconnecting the power cable. Press and keep the Reset Button pressed, and then reconnect the power supply cable. Keep the Reset Button pressed until the Operating Status LED (Green) blinks three times. (Note that this may take up to 10~15 seconds), then release the button. When the Operating Status LED (Green) blinks three times.
By Using Hyper Terminal
Execute Hyper Terminal as referred to Chapter 4.3.1 Configuring Hyper Terminal Supply the power to the Network IP Camera. After a while, the count down starts with the message Press 'p' key to stop auto-boot or Load-Default-Button under the NetCam for 3 seconds... .At this time, press p key. Then, [Network IP Camera Boot] prompt shows like the right side image. When you enter w, Administrator ID & Password reinstate as factory default admin

Glossary of Terms
ActiveX A control (or set of rules) used by a browser. ActiveX controls are often downloaded and installed automatically as required.
ARP Address Resolution Protocol. A method for finding a host's Ethernet address from its Internet address. The sender broadcasts an ARP packet containing the Internet address of another host and waits for it (or some other host) to send back its Ethernet address. Each host maintains a cache of address translations to reduce delay and loading. ARP allows the Internet address to be independent of the Ethernet address but it only works if all hosts support it. The ARP command can be used to set the IP addresses for your product.
CGI A standard for running external programs from a World-Wide Web HTTP server. CGI specifies how to pass arguments to the executing program as part of the HTTP request. It also defines a set of environment variables. Commonly, the program will generate some HTML which will be passed back to the browser but it can also request URL redirection. A set of rules (or a program) that allows a Web Server to communications with other programs.
DSL Digital Subscriber Loop, A family of digital telecommunications protocols designed to allow high speed data communication over the existing copper telephone lines between end-users and telephone companies. DHCP - A protocol that provides a means to dynamically allocate IP addresses to computers on a local area network. The system administrator assigns a range of IP addresses to DHCP and each client computer on the LAN has its TCP/IP software configured to request an IP address from the DHCP server. The request and grant process uses a lease concept with a controllable time period. Ethernet A widely used networking standard.
Firewall A virtual barrier between a LAN (Local Area Network) and other networks, e.g. the Internet.
Frame Grabber Card Plug-in hardware for grabbing images.
FTP - A client-server protocol that allows a user on one computer to transfer files to and from another computer over a TCP/IP network. Also the client program the user executes to transfer files. It is defined in STD 9, RFC 959. 74

PING - A protocol that sends a message to another computer and waits for acknowledgment, often used to check if another computer on a network is reachable.
PPP PointtoPoint Protocol. A method allowing one computer to connect to another, usually via a modem over a phone line.
Protocol - A set of formal rules describing how to transmit data, especially across a network. Low- level protocols define the electrical and physical standards to be observed, bit- and byte-ordering and the transmission and error detection and correction of the bit stream. High-level protocols deal with the data formatting, including the syntax of messages, the terminal to computer dialogue, character sets, sequencing of messages etc. 75 SMTP Simple Mail Transfer Protocol NETWORK IP CAMERA Users Guide TCP/IP - Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol.
