SerVision MVG 400 System Guide
Configuring the MVG 400 115
Field Description
Write Protect Select this option if you want to record linearly – continue
recording until all the allocated disk space is full, and then stop
recording.
Note: If this option is not selected, recording follows the FIFO
model: when the disk allocation is full, the earliest recordings from
this camera are erased to make room for new recordings.
Recording size Select one of the following:
• VGA: Large picture (640x480 pixels)
• SIF: Medium-sized picture (320x240 pixels)
• QSIF: Small picture (160x120 pixels)
Framerate Enter the desired number of frames per second.
Bitrate Enter the desired number of bits per second.
Note: If you select custom video quality settings that exactly match a standard setting,
the standard setting is automatically selected. For example, if you select recording size
SIF, framerate 10, and bitrate 128, the value of the Recording Quality field is
automatically switched to
High, and advanced settings are hidden from view.
Note: The quality settings you select here become the default settings for downloading
live video of the size you select. For example, if you select QSIF with a framerate of 8
and a bitrate of 24, these settings become the "High" quality setting for all QSIF streams
that are downloaded to client applications.
Sensor and Activator Settings
Sensors are devices that detect events such as a door being opened or a light being turned on.
Activators are external devices such as alarms and lights that can be turned on when a sensor
is activated.
Up to four sensors and two activators can be connected directly to the MVG 400. In addition,
up to 16 additional sensors can be connected to the unit through an ADAM module (see
Connecting Sensors Using an ADAM Module, page 18).
NOTE: These devices are not supplied with the MVG 400.
The MVG 400 can be configured to perform any or all of the following actions when a sensor
detects an event:
• Record a camera’s video stream (see Video Recording Settings, page 110)
• Upload video of the event to an ftp server on the internet (see Automatically Uploading
Video to an AVV Server, page 87). If e-mail notification recipients are defined in the
SMS
and E-mail
screen, an e-mail message is sent to all the recipients when the event begins
and a second e-mail is sent when the video is successfully uploaded and is available for
