Camera Pods

Use the Camera Pods task to configure any integrated cameras and Camera Pod 120s or CCTV Adapter

Pods 120s that are connected to your appliance. You can use the Camera Pods task to perform the

following configuration tasks on your cameras:

• Specify the imaging mode (Wide Screen or Pan and Scan) and the window of interest to use for Pan

and Scan imaging on your integrated camera or Camera Pod 120s (not available when configuring

CCTV Adapter Pod 120s or integrated cameras).

• Specify the label used to identify the integrated camera or camera pod and specify whether the

integrated camera subsystem or camera pod should generate an alert if the door switch sensor is

disconnected.

• Configure camera sensors, including specifying the label that is used to identify an individual

sensor, specifying the maximum number of hours of sensor data that will be preserved on the

appliance, and creating thresholds for each sensor which, if violated, will result in an alert condition

being reported to the appliance.

• Configure camera image capture settings, including mode, frame rate, total number of images to be

captured when alerts are reported, and total number of images saved prior to an alert condition to

include in alert notifications.

• Configure camera motion sensors, including adjusting the sensitivity of the camera motion sensor

and masking areas of the image where motion is expected to help prevent false alerts.

• Disable all video output from the Camera Pod (useful for temporarily disabling video, or in

situations where you do not require video monitoring but still require audio monitoring or the door

switch sensor).

To configure an integrated camera or camera pod, double-click on the Camera Pods icon to start the

Camera Pods task. A list of integrated cameras, Camera Pod 120s, and CCTV Adapter Pod 120s that are

connected to your appliance appears. Select the camera you want to configure, and the click the button

that corresponds to the configuration task you want to perform:

• Click Settings to specify labels for the camera and to specify an interactive camera frame rate limit

and interactive camera mode limit.

• Click Capture to configure the camera image capture settings.

• Click Masking to configure the camera motion sensor and to specify motion and block-out masks

(if available).

• Click Visual Modes to specify the imaging mode (Wide Screen or Pan and Scan), and to specify the

window of interest for use with Pan and Scan mode (available when configuring Sensor Pod 120s

only).

• Click Sensors to configure the sensors that are associated with the integrated camera or camera pod

and to create thresholds for those sensors.

Note

Visual Modes settings are not available for use when configuring CCTV Adapter

Pods.
