communication problems.
Table 3-1 Modbus Error Code Description
Error
Code
Name Description
01 Illegal Function The function code received in the query is not an
allowable action for the server. This may be
because the function code is only applicable to
newer devices, and was not implemented in the
unit selected. It could also indicate that the server
is in the wrong state to process a request of this
type, for example because it is
uncongured and is
being asked to return register values.
02 Illegal Data Address The data address received in the query is not an
allowable address for the server. More
specically,
the combination of reference number and transfer
length is invalid. For a controller with 100 registers,
the PDU addresses the rst register as 0, and the
last one as 99. If a request is submitted with a
starting register address of 96 and a quantity of
registers of 4, then this request will successfully
operate (address-wise at least) on registers 96, 97,

Code
Name Description
98, 99. If a request is submitted with a starting
register address of 96 and a quantity of registers of
5, then this request will fail with Exception Code
0x02 “Illegal Data Address” since it attempts to
operate on registers 96, 97, 98, 99 and 100, and
there is no register with address 100.
03 Illegal Data Value A value contained in the query data eld is not an
allowable value for server. This indicates a fault in
the structure of the remainder of a complex
request, such as that the implied length is
incorrect. It
specically does NOT mean that a data
item submitted for storage in a register has a value
outside the expectation of the application program,
since the Modbus protocol is unaware of the
signicance of any particular value of any
particular register.
04 Server Device Failure An unrecoverable error occurred while the server
was attempting to perform the requested action.
05 Acknowledge Specialized use in conjunction with programming
commands. The server has accepted the request
and is processing it, but a long duration of time will
be required to do so. This response is returned to
prevent a timeout error from occurring in the client.
The client can next issue a Poll Program Complete
message to determine if processing is completed.
06 Server Device Busy Specialized use in conjunction with programming
commands. The server is engaged in processing a
long– duration program command. The client
should retransmit the message later when the
server is free.
08 Memory Parity Error Specialized use in conjunction with function codes
20 and 21 and reference type 6, to indicate that the
extended
le area failed to pass a consistency
check. The server attempted to read record le, but
detected a parity error in the memory. The client
can retry the request, but service may be required
on the server device.

Chapter 5 Video and Image Settings
This part introduces the
conguration of video/audio and image related parameters.
5.1 Video Settings
This part introduces the settings of video parameters, such as, stream type, video
encoding, and resolution.
Go to setting page:
Conguration > Video/Audio > Video .
Note
For device with multiple camera channels, select a channel before other settings.
5.1.1 Stream Type
For device supports more than one stream, you can specify parameters for each stream
type.
Main Stream
The 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 mean larger storage space and higher bandwidth requirements in
transmission.
Sub Stream
The stream usually offers comparatively low resolution options, which consumes less
bandwidth and storage space.
5.1.2 Video Type
Select the content (video and audio) that should be contained in the stream.
Video
Only video content is contained in the stream.
Video & Audio
Video content and audio content are contained in the composite stream.
Note
Video & Audio varies according to different camera models.
Thermal & Optical Bi-spectrum Network Camera User Manual
27
5.1.3 Resolution
Select video resolution according to actual needs. Higher resolution requires higher
bandwidth and storage.
5.1.4 Bitrate Type and Max. Bitrate
Constant Bitrate
It means that the stream is compressed and transmitted at a comparatively xed
bitrate. The compression speed is fast, but mosaic may occur on the image.
Variable Bitrate
It means that the device automatically adjust the bitrate under the set Max. Bitrate. The
compression speed is slower than that of the constant bitrate. But it guarantees the
image quality of complex scenes.
5.1.5 Video Quality
When Bitrate Type is set as Variable, video quality is congurable. Select a video quality
according to actual needs. Note that higher video quality requires higher bandwidth.
5.1.6 Frame Rate
The frame rate 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. Note that higher frame rate requires higher bandwidth
and larger storage space.
5.1.7 Video Encoding
It stands for the compression standard the device adopts for video encoding.
Note
Available compression standards vary according to device models.
H.264
H.264, also known as MPEG-4 Part 10, Advanced Video Coding, is a compression
standard. Without compressing image quality, it increases compression ratio and reduces
the size of video
le than MJPEG or MPEG-4 Part 2.
Thermal & Optical Bi-spectrum Network Camera User Manual
28
H.265
H.265, also known as High Efciency Video Coding (HEVC) and MPEG-H Part 2, is a
compression standard. In comparison to H.264, it offers better video compression at the
same resolution, frame rate and image quality.
MJPEG
Motion JPEG (M-JPEG or MJPEG) is a video compression format in which intraframe
coding technology is used. Images in a MJPEG format is compressed as individual JPEG
images.
Prole
This function means that under the same bitrate, the more complex the prole is, the
higher the quality of the image is, and the requirement for network bandwidth is also
higher.
I-Frame Interval
I-frame interval denes the number of frames between 2 I-frames.
In H.264 and H.265, an I-frame, or intra frame, is a self-contained frame that can be
independently decoded without any reference to other images. An I-frame consumes more
bits than other frames. Thus, video with more I-frames, in other words, smaller I-frame
interval, generates more steady and reliable data bits while requiring more storage space.
SVC
Scalable Video Coding (SVC) is the name for the Annex G extension of the H.264 or H.265
video compression standard.
The objective of the SVC standardization has been to enable the encoding of a high-quality
video bitstream that contains one or more subset bitstreams that can themselves be
decoded with a complexity and reconstruction quality similar to that achieved using the
existing H.264 or H.265 design with the same quantity of data as in the subset bitstream.
The subset bitstream is derived by dropping packets from the larger bitstream.
SVC enables forward compatibility for older hardware: the same bitstream can be
consumed by basic hardware which can only decode a low-resolution subset, while more
advanced hardware will be able decode high quality video stream.
Thermal & Optical Bi-spectrum Network Camera User Manual
29
5.1.8 Smoothing
It refers to the smoothness of the stream. The higher value of the smoothing is, the better
uency of the stream will be, though, the video quality may not be so satisfactory. The
lower value of the smoothing is, the higher quality of the stream will be, though it may
appear not
uent.
5.1.9 Display VCA Info
VCA information can be displayed by Player and Video.
Player
Player means the VCA info can be displayed by the dedicated player provided by the
manufacturer.
Video
Video means the VCA info can be displayed by any general video player.
