Video Parameters. Select a camera, and congure parameters as your desire.
Main Stream
Main stream refers to the primary stream that aects data recorded to the hard disk drive and
will directly determine your video quality and image size. Comparing with the sub-stream, the
main stream provides a higher quality video with higher
resoluon and frame rate.
Sub-Stream
Sub-stream is a second codec that runs alongside the mainstream. It allows you to reduce the
outgoing internet bandwidth without sacricing your direct recording quality. Sub-stream is
oen exclusively used by smartphone applicaons to view live video. Users with limited internet
speeds may benet most from this seng.
Resoluon
Image resoluon is a measure of how much detail a digital image can hold. The greater the
resoluon, the greater the level of detail. Resoluon can be specied as the number of pixel-
columns (width) by the number of pixel-rows (height), e.g., 1024 × 768.
Bitrate Type
The bit rate (in kbit/s or Mbit/s) is
oen referred to as speed, but actually denes the number of
bits/me unit rather than distance/me unit. Two types including variable or constant are
available.
Frame Rate
It refers to the number of frames captured each second. A higher frame rate is advantageous
when there is movement in the video stream, as it maintains image quality throughout.
I-Frame Interval
I-Frame also referred as intra picture, I-Frame is the
rst frame of every GOP (a video
compression technology of MPEG). It can be viewed as pictures aer compression. I-Frame
interval is the amount of frames between two connuous I-Frames.

RAID requires enterprise-level HDDs.
The funcons in this secon are only available for certain models. It is recommended to use the
same model and capacity HDDs.
There are two ways to create RAID. For one-touch creaon, the default RAID type is RAID5. For

Dual-Stream
Dual-stream is a technology used to record high resoluon video locally while transming a
lower resoluon stream over the network. The two streams are generated by the DVR, with the
main stream having a maximum
resoluon of 1080P and the sub-stream having a maximum
resoluon of CIF.
DVR

Ethernet networks.
DDNS
Dynamic DNS is a method, protocol, or network service that provides the capability for a
networked device, such as a router or computer system using the Internet Protocol Suite, to
nofy a domain name server to change, in real me (ad-hoc) the acve DNS conguraon of its

25.3 Frequently Asked
Quesons
25.3.1 Why is there a part of channels displaying “No Resource” or turning black
screen in mul-screen live view?
Reason
1. Sub-stream resoluon or bitrate sengs is inappropriate.
2. Connecng sub-stream failed.
Soluon
1. Go to Camera → Video Parameters → Sub-Stream . Select the channel, and turn down the
resoluon and max. bitrate (resoluon shall be less than 720p, max. bitrate shall be less than
2048 Kbps).
Note
If your video recorder noes not support this funcon, you can log in to the camera, and
adjust video parameters via web browser.
2. Properly set the sub-stream resoluon and max. bitrate (resoluon shall be less than 720p, max.
bitrate shall be less than 2048 Kbps), then delete the channel and add it back again.

25.3.2 Why is the video recorder nofying risky password aer a network camera
is added?
Reason
The camera password is too weak.
Soluon
Change the camera password.
Warning
We highly recommend you create a strong password of your own choosing (Using a minimum of 8
characters, including at least three of the following categories: upper case leers, lower case
leers, numbers, and special characters.) in order to increase the security of your product. And we
recommend you reset your password regularly, especially in the high security system,
reseng the
password monthly or weekly can
beer protect your product.
25.3.3 Why is the video recorder nofying the stream type is not supported?
Reason
The camera encoding format mismatches with the video recorder.
Soluon
If the camera is using H.265/MJPEG for encoding, but video recorder does not support H.265/
MJPEG, change the camera encoding format to the same as video recorder.
25.3.4 How to
conrm the video recorder is using H.265 to record video?
Soluon
Check if the encoding type at live view toolbar is H.265.
25.3.5 Why is the video recorder
nofying IP conict?
Reason
The video recorder uses the same IP address as other devices.
Soluon
Change the IP address of video recorder. Ensure it is not the same as other devices.

Soluon
Export the video, and play it with other devices. If it plays normally on other device, change your
HDD, and try again.
25.3.7 Why is the device not able to control PTZ camera via coaxitron?
Reason
1. The camera does not support coaxitron.
2. The coaxitron protocol is incorrect.
3. The signal is
aected by video opcal transceiver.
Soluon
1. Ensure the video input signal is HDTVI, and the camera supports coaxitron.
2. Ensure coaxitron protocol parameters are correct, such as baud rate and address.
3. Remove the video
opcal transceiver, and try again.
25.3.8 Why does the PTZ seem unresponsive via RS-485?
Reason
1. The RS-485 cable is not properly connected.
2. The RS-485 interface is broken.
3. The control protocol is not correct.
Soluon
1. Check if RS-485 cable is properly connected.
2. Change RS-485 interface, and try again.
3. Ensure control protocol is Pelco.
25.3.9 Why is the video sound quality not good?

Reason
1. The audio input device does not have a good eect in sound collecon.
2. Interference in transmission.
3. The audio parameter is not properly set.
Soluon
1. Check if the audio input device is working properly. You can change another audio input device,
and try again.
2. Check the audio transmission line. Ensure all lines are well connected or welded, and there is no
electromagnec interference.
3. Adjust the audio volume according to the environment and audio input device.

Nocaon for Corrosive Gas
In non-data center room, the corrosive gas concentraon limit is recommended to meet the
requirements of the chemical
acve substance 3C2 level in IEC 60721-3-3:2002.

Note
The average values in the table above are typical control limits for corrosive gases in the machine
room environment. In general, it is not recommended that the concentraon of corrosive gases
exceed the average value.
The maximum value refers to the limit or peak value. The
duraon for the corrosive gas
concentraon to reach the maximum value should not exceed 30 minutes per day.
