In internal/external indicator application, the indicator displays the color of occupied status when
the three spaces are all occupied. The indicator displays the color of unoccupied status when any
of the spaces is free. The indicator displays the color of over line when a parked vehicle occupies
two spaces.

5.4.2 Internal and External Indicator Application
Note
Here we take example of the scene in which a device monitors three parking spaces.
In internal and external indicator application, the internal and external indicators work at the
same time. All the indicators display the set colors for different parking space status. E.g., the
parking camera A controls the internal indicator B, the external indicator 2 of parking camera A,

and the external indicator 2 of parking camera B, and detects the status of the parking spaces B1
to B3. The parking camera B controls the internal indicator A, the external indicator 1 of parking
camera A, and the external indicator 1 of parking camera B, and detects the status of the parking
spaces A1 to A3, as shown below. After the settings, the external indicator 2 of parking camera A
will display the different status of parking space B1, the internal indicator B will display the
different status of parking space B2, and the external indicator 2 of parking camera B will display
the different status of parking space B3. The external indicator 1 of parking camera A will display
the different status of parking space A1, the internal indicator A will display the different status of
parking space A2, and the external indicator 1 of parking camera B will display the different status
of parking space A3.
Figure 5-6 Internal and External Indicator Application
5.4.3 Alternate Indicator Control Application
Note
Here we take example of the scene in which two devices monitor six parking spaces.
The alternate indicator control is applicable to the parking lot where there are symmetric parking
spaces on both sides, and the distance between the device to the monitored parking space lines is
too far.
E.g., the parking camera A controls the indicator B and detects the status of the parking spaces B1
to B3, while the parking camera B controls the indicator A and detects the status of the parking
spaces A1 to A3, as shown below. After the settings, the indicator A/B will display the color of
occupied status when the parking spaces A1 to A3/B1 to B3 are all occupied. The indicator A/B will

16
display the color of unoccupied status when any of the three spaces is free. The indicator A/B will
display the color of over line when a parked vehicle occupies two spaces.
Figure 5-7 Alternate Indicator Control Application
5.4.4 Special Parking Space Application
Note
Here we take example of the scene in which a device monitors three parking spaces.
E.g., the parking space 1 is set as a special parking space in the monitoring range, and its status is
indicated by the external indicator 1 connected to the device. Then the external indicator 1 will
display the set color for the special parking space, and the occupied, unoccupied, or over-line
status is invalid for the indicator.

Chapter 8 Encoding and Display
8.1 Set Video Encoding Parameters
Set video encoding parameters to adjust the live view and recording effect.
● When the network signal is good and the speed is fast, you can set high resolution and bitrate to
raise the image quality.
● When the network signal is bad and the speed is slow, you can set low resolution, bitrate, and
frame rate to guarantee the image fluency.
● When the network signal is bad, but the resolution should be guaranteed, you can set low
bitrate and frame rate to guarantee the image fluency.
● Main stream stands for the best stream performance the device supports. It usually offers the
best resolution and frame rate the device can do. But high resolution and frame rate usually
means larger storage space and higher bandwidth requirements in transmission. Sub-stream
usually offers comparatively low resolution options, which consumes less bandwidth and
storage space. Third stream is offered for customized usage.
Steps
1. Go to Configuration → Device Configuration → Encoding and Storage → Video Encoding.
2. Set the parameters for different streams.
Stream Type
Video stream and video & audio stream are selectable.
Max. Bitrate
Select relatively large bitrate if you need good image quality and effect, but more storage
spaces will be consumed. Select relatively small bitrate if storage requirement is in priority.
Frame Rate
It is to describe the frequency at which the video stream is updated and it is measured by
frames per second (fps). A higher frame rate is advantageous when there is movement in the
video stream, as it maintains image quality throughout.
Resolution
The higher the resolution is, the clearer the image will be. Meanwhile, the network
bandwidth requirement is higher.
SVC
Scalable Video Coding (SVC) is an extension of the H.264/AVC and H.265 standard. Enable the
function and the device will automatically extract frames from the original video when the
network bandwidth is insufficient.
Bitrate Type
Parking Camera User Manual
25
Select the bitrate type to constant or variable.
Video Quality
When bitrate type is variable, 6 levels of video quality are selectable. The higher the video
quality is, the higher requirements of the network bandwidth.
Encoding Complexity
Under the same bitrate, the higher the encoding complexity is, the higher the image quality is,
and the higher the requirement of the network bandwidth is.
I Frame Interval
It refers to the number of frames between two key frames. The larger the I frame interval is,
the smaller the stream fluctuation is, but the image quality is not that good.
Video Encoding
The device supports multiple video encoding types, such as H.264, H.265, and MJPEG.
Supported encoding types for different stream types may differ. H.265 is a new encoding
technology. Compared with H.264, it reduces the transmission bitrate under the same
resolution, frame rate, and image quality.

Set WDR Level. The higher the level is, the higher the WDR strength is.
Time
Enable WDR according to the time.
Brightness
Set Light Threshold. When the brightness reaches the threshold, WDR will be enabled.
BLC
If you focus on an object against strong backlight, the object will be too dark to be seen
clearly. BLC compensates light to the object in the front to make it clear.
Brightness Enhancement at Night
The scene brightness will be enhanced at night automatically.
Enable Defog
Enable defog to get a clear image in foggy days.
Light Compensation on License Plate
Check it. The light compensation on license plates can be realized, and various light
supplement conditions can be adapted via setting license plate expectant brightness and
supplement light correction coefficient. The higher the sensitivity is, the easier this function
can be enabled.
Enable Gamma Correction
The higher the gamma correction value is, the stronger the correction strength is.
Brightness
It refers to the max. brightness of the image.
Contrast
It refers to the contrast of the image. Set it to adjust the levels and permeability of the image.
Shutter Speed
If the shutter speed is quick, the details of the moving objects can be displayed better. If the
shutter speed is slow, the outline of the moving objects will be fuzzy and trailing will appear.
Gain
It refers to the upper limit value of limiting image signal amplification. It is recommended to
set a high gain if the illumination is not enough, and set a low gain if the illumination is
enough.
3D DNR
Digital Noise Reduction (DNR) reduces the noise in the video stream.
In Normal Mode, the higher the 3D DNR Level is, the stronger the noise will be reduced. But
if it is too high, the image may become fuzzy.
In Expert Mode, set Spatial Intensity and Time Intensity. If the special intensity is too high,
the outline of the image may become fuzzy and the details may lose. If the time intensity is
Parking Camera User Manual
28
too high, trailing may appear.
2D DNR
The higher the 2D DNR Level is, the stronger the noise will be reduced. But if it is too high,
the image may become fuzzy.
8.3 Set ROI
ROI (Region of Interest) encoding helps to assign more encoding resources to the region of interest,
thus to increase the quality of the ROI whereas the background information is less focused.
Before You Start
Please check the video encoding type. ROI is supported when the video encoding type is H.264 or
H.265.
Steps
1. Go to Configuration → Device Configuration → Encoding and Storage → ROI.
