The IT110 Network
Camera is a high-performance networking video transmitter. With powerful VLIW
DSP core and fully optimized algorithm, it can compress and transmit the high
quality real-time video through standard TCP/IP inter-network. In addition to
meet the basic needs of video feed, many advanced features are added to help
building applications of surveillance or web attraction. The state-of-art
design well compromises among stable, robust, simple-to-use and flexibility.
☆ Real-time motion-JPEG compression
Video input can be efficiently compressed into packets of
JPEG images without delay. Optimal compression engine makes the equivalently
excellent image with much smaller size. There is no more sacrifice in remote
monitoring and storage. Five levels of compression ratio and three sizes of
image resolutions are easy to meet your requirement.
☆ Robust system operation
Industrial
real-time operating system prevents from malicious hackers and virus that
threat Windows or Linux systems. The on-board watchdog eternally monitors the
system operations for dead-proof.
☆ Easy Web access via standard browser
You don’t have
to install any software to access the IT110 Network Camera. The embedded Web
server makes users can access the IT110 Network Camera anywhere over Internet
with any popular Web browser. As long as you are connected to network, you can cast
your eyes on your precious property.
☆ Password protection of system access
Password level
protection is provided by the system to prevent from malicious intruders from
network. Once the password of administrator is entered, any user will need
password authentication to access the IT110 Network Camera. Each user can have
individual access right to view video or control external devices.
☆ Built-in motion detection
No more external
sensors are required. The video channel can be setup to detect any motion with
customized settings. By tuning the object size and sensitivity, it is more
reliable to fit into your environment. With this built-in facility, you can
easily setup a security system in your home or office.
☆ Weekly schedule for automatic surveillance
The user-defined time period will repeat weekly to check
any security settings and accordingly sending notification or drive external
devices. It is easy to install in SOHO, retail
shop and home as a security system.
☆ Flexible I/O control for external devices
There is one
opto-isolated sensor input and one relay output to control external devices.
System integrators can easily replace the current analog systems to build an
advanced security system.
☆ Remote system upgrade
To achieve the
promise we made to support our valuable customers in life-time, the most
up-to-date firmware is always put on our web site to add new functions or solve
known bugs. A free upgrade wizard is included to facilitate the job.

The IT110 Network
Camera provides a general I/O terminal block with one digital input and one
relay switch for device control. Pin 1 and pin 2 can be connected to an
external sensor and the state of voltage will be monitored from the initial
state 'LOW'. The relay switch of pin 3 and pin 4 can be used to turn on or off
the external device.
Power cord socket
Connect the
power jack of the included power adapter. Connecting the power adapter should
be the last operation while physically installing the IT110 Network Camera.
To easily fit into various environments, the IT110 Network Camera
automatically detects the attached interfaces and configures itself to the best
condition. The high performance built-in CCD and lens always give users
delicate image quality.
In the following content, "user" refers to those
who can access the IT110 Network Camera and "administrator"
means the supervisor who has the root password to configure the IT110 Network Camera
in addition to general access. Administrators should carefully read this manual,
especially during installation.
Hardware
installation
Before
installing multiple IT110 Network Cameras at the well-chosen locations, the
administrator should memorize the serial numbers on the packages respectively
for future use.
Connect the
supplied cables from the IT110 Network Camera to related devices according to the
above diagram. Note that the power adaptor must be kept unplugged until other
cables are firmly connected.
Power on
Make sure all
cables are correctly and firmly connected before turning on the IT110 Network
Camera. Turn on cameras, sensors, alarm devices, and then attach the power
adaptor of the IT110 Network Camera to the electric power socket. After the POST
(power-on self test) is complete and the result is successful, the IT110 Network
Camera is ready for software configuration as described in this manual. At this
stage, network speed and video modulation type are automatically detected. Refer
to the configuration section for further information.
Connect the power jack of the
power adapter to the IT110 Network Camera prior to plugging the utility end
into the utility power socket. It will reduce accidental electric surge shock.
Software installation
Easy way with installer program
In order to
configure the IT110 Network Camera remotely, administrators should keep the
serial numbers of the new IT110 Network Camera for identification and initial
passwords. After successfully mounting the IT110 Network Camera in the proper
position, run the Installer program
on the PC in the same network to locate the newly mounted IT110 Network Camera.
The IT110 Network Camera also support manual setup procedures to non-Windows
based environments. The manual procedure is described next.
After the POST
is done, the IT110 Network Camera will try to configure itself by detecting the
network environment. If there is DHCP service over the network, the Installer program will catch the
given information, then display the serial number and given IP address for each
IT110 Network Camera as the figure above. To install the IP address, follow the
steps.
- Click on the entry with the serial
number you want to install. If the "Assigned" field of the entry is labeled "Yes", that means the IT110 Network
Camera has already been installed.
- Type the desired IP address if it
is other than the IP address given by the DHCP server.
- Check the box to fix the IP address
of the IT110 Network Camera. Otherwise the IT110 Network Camera will lose
the network address at next system boot and you have to run this installer
again.
- Click
to progress the installation.
- After successful notification,
administrators may keep the address information and click directly on
to access the IT110 Network Camera in the
default browser.
If the IP
address is taken by another network device in the network, the Installer
program will pop out another message window to warn that the assigned IP
conflicts. In this case, administrators should ask the network supervisor for a
vacant IP address.
While “Use this IP whenever system boots",
is checked, a dialog window may pop out to ask for “Server FTP Port” and “Root
Password” because they are already changed by administrators to other than
default settings. If the original settings are lost, restore default settings
and run software installation again.
Once the installation
is complete, administrators should follow the First access to the IT110 Network
Camera section for necessary checks and configurations.
Manual way with existing programs
For those
environments such as MAC, Linux, Unix or other operating systems, whose
installer is not yet available, some common network tools including ARP and
PING can be used to install the IT110 Network Camera. Before proceeding
further, make sure ARP and PING programs
exist.
First, type arp
–s “assigned IP address” “Ethernet address” to add an entity in the
system’s name table. The Ethernet address is identical to the serial number of the
IT110 Network Camera and should be typed in the appropriate format like
“uu-vv-ww-xx-yy-zz” or “uu:vv:ww:xx:yy:zz”, which depends on the operating
system.
Once the name
entity is added, type ping "assigned IP address” to invite the new IT110
Network Camera. If it replies, that means the IT110 Network Camera has accepted
the assigned IP address and is ready for access. The first several ping
requests may fail during the self-configuration period of the IT110 Network
Camera. Since the accurate grammar of ARP and PING depends on the operating
system, refer to its related help manual.
Example of DOS prompt in Windows 2000
First access to the IT110 Network Camera
Change initial password of administrator
Starting the Web
browser to connect to the assigned IP address of the IT110 Network Camera,
users will be asked for user name and password by an authentication message
window. A root password, identical to the IT110 Network Camera's serial number,
is needed for the initial access to a newly installed IT110 Network Camera. The
administrator must change the root password immediately after the initial
installation to ensure security. The new root password should be well memorized
since there is no way to retrieve or recover it. After changing the password,
the browser will display an authentication window again to ask for the new
password. If the root password is deleted as blank, the authentication
mechanism will be disabled.
Manage user privilege
For complete
protection from illegal usage, the IT110 Network Camera provides three
privileges and always needs user name and password before access. The lowest
level is DEMO mode whose services are subject to administrator's permission.
The standard level is the USER mode that consists of twenty user profiles. Each
user is able to access the IT110 Network Camera under the given privilege,
except for system configuration. The twenty user profiles are also maintained
by the administrator. The highest level is ROOT mode that only opens to
administrators for initial setup, system configuration, user administration and
software upgrade. The user name of the administrator is internally assigned to
“root”.
Complete the network settings
Although the
IT110 Network Camera already can be accessed after software installation in
local area network, administrators should complete the network settings in the
configuration page. The complete network configurations including subnet mask
as well as the IP address of default gateway and DNS are provided by your network
administrator or Internet service provider. Once the wrong network settings
make the IT110 Network Camera fail to work, refer to Appendix A to restore
factory default settings.
By default the
IT110 Network Camera will need administrator's installation every time it
reboots. If the network settings are sure to work all the time, disable the
install option in network configuration Web page or Installer program.
Details about
configurations are described in the relative category of the Chapter Definitions
of Configuration.
Open your familiar web browser and
connect to the IT110 Network Camera just like any general web
site and the video will present on demand. Make sure the web address of the IT110
Network Camera’s target is accurate.
After opening
the Web browser and typing in the URL of the IT110 Network Camera, a dialogue
window will pop out to request a username and password. For administrator’s
initial usage of the IT110 Network Camera, enter the username as “root” and the password as the serial
number in capital letters. The serial number can be found on the labels
under the body of the IT110 Network Camera and the top side of the carton. The
primary users will be allowed to enter as soon as the administrator finishes
adding user profiles. Upon successful authentication, the main page will be
displayed.
For
demonstration purpose, enter the Security Web page of configuration to
activate the demo account and choose permitted services. Once the demo account
is setup, any one may watch the video by using “demo” as user name while ignoring the password. Different from primary
users, the demo account has certain limitations that are determined by
administrators.
In the figure,
the foreground is the login window and the background shows the message when
authentication fails. The user may check the option to save the password for
future convenience.
If it is initial
access to the IT110 Network Camera via the Web browser supporting server push,
the motioned pictures will display directly. If the Web browser is Internet
Explorer in Windows, users will be asked to install a new plug-in that is
provided by the IT110 Network Camera. This plug-in has been registered for
certificate and is used to display motioned pictures in the Internet Explorer.
Users may click on 
to install the plug-in. If the web browser
does not allow the user to install, check the security option to lower security
levels or contact network supervisors.
Basic
functions are displayed in main entrance page of the IT110 Network Camera. The
first figure below is graphic mode that has better visual effect and the second
one is text mode that will shorten download time. The main page may look different
depending on the PT scanner or the privilege of the user.
Graphic mode
Video quality selection
It allows
users to adjust the video quality for speed or smoothness. The performance is
also subject to the network bandwidth and the number of
users. Five options are available to be chosen from “Medium”
to “Excellent”. “Medium” quality means the picture
has the quickest refresh rate but the worst image quality and “Excellent”
quality means the picture has the slowest refresh rate but the best image
quality.
Video size selection
It allows
users to adjust the image size with consideration of bandwidth and image resolution. Five options are available including “Half”, “Half×2”,
“Standard”, “Standard×2” and “Double”. “Half×2” consumes
the same bandwidth as “Half” but has the same size with “Standard”.
Of course the visual effect is worse than “Standard”. “Standard×2”
compared to “Double” is similar to the case. “Half×2” is
especially suits in the low bandwidth environment like a dial-up network. To
fit into the small image area, timestamp will be skipped in “Half” and “Half×2”
modes.
System configuration
There is a button or text link in the
left side of the system configuration that only appears in administrators’ main
page.
External digital output control
There may be two remote control
buttons for the each digital output on the main page. If there are external
devices attached to the digital output, administrators or permitted users can
click on 
to short “Common” and “Normal Open” pins of
the digital output or click on 
to short “Common” and “Normal Close” pins of
the digital output. To know more about the digital output for external devices,
refer to the rear panel introduction of the Chapter Physical Description.
System Configuration
The system
configuration can be easily done remotely on Internet Explorer through the Web
interface. There are two wizards in addition to classified categories of system
configurations. They can give friendly instructions and facilitate the setup
job. Alternately administrators may type directly the URL of system
configuration, “http://<IP address of the
IT110 Network Camera>/setup/config.html”, to directly enter the
configuration page. If administrators also want to set certain options through
the URL, read the relative section in the Chapter Advanced Usage for
reference. The IT110 Network Camera also supports FTP to modify the system
configuration file, CONFIG.INI, for technical usage. The details are described
in the Chapter Advanced Usage.
Since it is a
networking video server, administrators should run “Setup wizard” or well configure “Security”, “Network” and
“Video” at least. To utilize the
built-in features of security and web attraction, run “Application wizard” or configure “Application” and “Demo”.
Besides these features, administrators can adjust the system date and time in “System”, or have different homepage
layout by configuring “Homepage layout”.
The IT110 Network Camera also provides some system maintenance like “View log file”, “View parameters” and “Factory
default”.
The setup wizard
will guide administrator to enter necessary information including system name,
current date and time, administrator’s password, video configuration and captions,
and network settings. Administrators can exit the procedures anytime to reserve
the current configuration. Finally the setup wizard will ask for reboot to
validate the changes and administrators can decide to reboot later.
There are two
main applications including surveillance system and web attraction by means of the
IT110 Network Camera. The former one will utilize the built-in motion detection
and external sensors to integrate with the existing e-mail or FTP server or
external alarms to construct a security system. It also possesses the weekly
schedule for timed monitoring. The later one will customize the main page to
your personal style and setup accounts for your possible visitors. The
application is perfectly constructed and performed on several clicks by your
fingertip. Administrators can additionally configure the application parameters
in the Application page of configuration for more advanced usage after
using Application wizard.
System parameters
Change host name
The “host name” is used for the homepage
title of main page and displays as the title over the video window on the main
page. The maximum string length is 40 characters or 20 characters in
double-byte-character-systems like Chinese or Japanese.
Adjust date and time
There are three
ways to adjust system date and time. The easiest is to make the IT110 Network
Camera "Sync with computer time". The second “Manual”
is to set the date and time manually by entering new values. Notice the format
in the related field while typing. The third “Automatic” is to make the
IT110 Network Camera automatically synchronize with timeservers over the
Internet every month. It may fail if the assigned NTP server cannot be reached or the IT110 Network Camera is within
a local network. Leaving the NTP server blank will let the IT110 Network Camera
connect to default timeservers. Domain name or IP address format is acceptable
as long as DNS server is available. Do not forget setting the "Time
zone" offset for local settings. Refer to the Appendix E for the time
zone of your region. It only affects the hour in NTP method. “Update
interval” can make the server to synchronize the system time to NTP server
every hour, every day, every week or every month.
Once the
settings are changed, click on 
to validate changes.
Security privilege
Change root password
To change the
administrator’s password, type the new password in both text boxes identically.
What is typed will be displayed as asterisks for security purposes. The maximum
password is 16 characters. After pressing 
, the
web browser will ask administrators for the new password for access.
Add new users
To add a new
user, type the new user's name and password, check respective privilege, and
then press 
to insert the entry. There are a total of
twenty user accounts. Each user can have independent access right of the video
channel and external I/O access.
Edit user’s privilege
If the permitted
rights of some user has to be changed, pull down the user list to find the user
name and press 
. A
new window will pop out for administrators to change password and choose
different privilege.
Delete existing users
To delete a
user, pull down the user list to find the user name to be deleted and press 
. A
message window will pop up for confirmation.
Demonstration account
To setup the
IT110 Network Camera for demonstration to the public, administrators need to
choose the service(s) to be permitted. After checking “view” in Security
page, users may use “demo” as general user name and password is not required. Administrator
also can assign “ I/O access” option to demo account. To separate the demo
account from primary users can prevent from interfering with the normal
operations.
Enable snapshot mode for more users
The maximum
users that can view the IT110 Network Camera at the same time are twenty.
Administrators can check “Allow more
guests with snapshot mode” to enable the snapshot mode for more users. Then
the users over twenty will have the main page with snapshot mode instead of
normal motion picture. It is practical for web attraction. In such case,
configure the “Snapshot interval” to
achieve better performance. The bigger interval between snapshots, the more
users can have snapshot mode work.
Network settings
Fix the IP address
To eliminate
incautious mistakes during installation, the IT110 Network Camera will stay in
installation mode whenever it starts unless "Reset network at next boot"
is disabled. This option can also be disabled using the Installer program. Once
the option is disabled, the IT110 Network Camera will skip installation at the
next boot and the Installer program will not find the installed units. That
implies that the IT110 Network Camera cannot be accessed if no one remembers
the IP address, except for restoring factory default settings. However, with
this option disabled the IT110 Network Camera can automatically operates
normally after restarting in case of losing power.
Basic network settings
Administrators
may need to modify the network settings to fit into existing networks. The subnet
mask in some broadband service may differ from the default value 255.255.255.0
and service providers may assign more specific network settings. Administrators
should change the configuration to what given by the service provider. The
configuration may include "IP address", "Subnet mask",
"Default router", "Primary DNS server" and
"Secondary DNS server". After changing network settings, be
sure to leave "Reset network at next boot" blank to skip next
installation when the system restarts. Otherwise those network settings will be
erased at the next start.
Bandwidth utilization limit
Each the IT110 Network
Camera can be limited in bandwidth utilization by administrators according to
its priority and importance of location. "Bandwidth limit" is
most useful to balance network utilization when multiple IT110 Network Camera
are installed in the same network. It is more effective than changing image
quality only and achieves better performance with adequate image size and
quality.
Changing port number of servers
For security or
network integration, administrators also can hide the server from the general
HTTP port by changing "HTTP port" to other than default 80. “Local
FTP server port” can also be changed to other than default 21.
Administrators should have enough network knowledge to change the default port.
E-mail settings
The IT110 Network
Camera not only plays the role of server, it will also actively connect to
servers outside to send out messages or snapshots. When the IT110 Network
Camera starts, it will send out a system log via e-mail as long as the settings
are correct rather than upload it via FTP. Even in modem application, the IT110
Network Camera will send out a connection log whenever it dials out to an ISP
or dialup server outside. If the administrator has setup some applications in
either event mode or sequential mode, the IT110 Network Camera will send out
snapshots once conditions are met. To activate e-mail function, enter correct
settings of "SMTP (mail) server" and "Recipient email
address". "Secondary SMTP (mail) server" and "Secondary
email address" are provided for backup connection when the primary one
fails. “Return email address” is
whom the mail will return when the SMTP server rejects upon any failure. Some
ISP may reject the mail if the address is invalid.
FTP settings
To send the log
files described in the above paragraph via FTP, the SMTP server should be
erased. Administrators must enter correct "Primary FTP Server",
"Primary FTP user name" and "Primary FTP password".
"Primary FTP remote folder" is the relative sub-folder in the
remote FTP server. If the port of the remote FTP server is changed other than
21, set the real port to “Primary FTP server port”. If the local network
is protected by a firewall to prevent from initiating FTP connection from the
remote FTP server, you may be able to connect to the FTP server but unable to
put any file due to data channel connection failure. Check “Primary FTP passive mode” for passive transfer solution. Another set
of "Secondary" server settings is also provided for backup
connection.
In either e-mail
or FTP, the primary server information should be entered first. If the primary
server is not set, the related FTP or email will be cancelled. Note that it may
take time to connect to the secondary server after the first one fails and it
may affect some applications when conditions happen too often.
After everything
is set, click on . A
warning message will pop out for confirmation. After clicking on 
, the
IT110 Network Camera will automatically restart. If "Reset network at
next boot" is kept checked, perform software installation again.
Otherwise the IT110 Network Camera will boot up according to the new
configuration automatically.
Any change made to this page will make the
system restart to validate. Make sure every field is correctly typed before
clicking on . If the
IT110 Network Camera fails to response due to erratic settings, perform the
restore procedures and run software installation.
Administrators
should notice that the basic network settings including IP address, subnet
mask, default router and DNS servers will be cleared when the network interface
is switched to the other between Ethernet and modem.
Video and motion detection
Adjust image settings
"Time
stamp" and "Text on image" will be enclosed in image
for reference. The timestamp is captured from date and time of the IT110 Network
Camera that is maintained by an on-board real-time clock. "Color"
setting is independent of the connected camera and “B/W” option can speed up the encoder a little. “Default size” option here will be the default size
of video window when users first connect to the IT110 Network Camera. “Default
quality” option here will be
the default quality when users first connect to the IT110 Network Camera. To
adjust image settings for best visual quality, press 
and a motion picture window will pop up for your
reference. There are four fields including "Brightness",
"Contrast", "Hue"
and "Saturation" for video compensation. Each field has eleven
levels ranged from -5 to +5. While adjusting, administrators can click on 
to check prior to 
the setting in memory. If the adjustment is
not good, administrators can click on 
to restore the original settings without
change. After configuration done, click on 
to close this window. If parameters are
changed without saving, they will be used until the next system startup.
Configure motion detection
The channel can have its own
settings of motion detection independently. The settings including “Object size” and “Sensitivity” allow administrators fine tune to fit into the
environment. The “Object size”
decides the space ratio of motioned objects over the monitored screen. The “Sensitivity” sets the measurable difference
between two sequential images that would indicate motion. The larger object
size and lower sensitivity will make the IT110 Network Camera ignore small
variations in images. While the motion amplitude of some object in the
monitored screen is over the settings, a white M in red background will indicate at
the upper-right corner of the window.
Motion detection
is provided as reference because it is very environment-dependent. Especially
working by the very sensitive settings, some triggered events may be considered
as false alarms though there is tiny difference happening indeed. It can be
affected by florescent light flashing, shadow shifting, and so on.
Application constitution
Administrators
can use combinations of options on the application page to perform many useful
security applications. The IT110 Network Camera provides two application modes;
one is performed according to the settings on the web page, the other is
performed according to the external command script. Though most settings will
automatically be done by the Application Wizard, administrators still
can adjust the settings from this page.
Weekly schedule
A useful weekly
schedule is provided for daily security application. Administrators can select
weekdays from Monday to Friday with the daily schedule from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm
that no one is at home to perform any event checking. If the security system
needs to be installed in office that no one is there during the nights or
weekend, administrators just set the time period as above, then check “All the time except for the above schedule”
for opposite operations.
External command script
Administrators
can write a script named SCRIPT.TXT
to perfectly match the additional software according to the Command Script
for Complex Applications section in the Chapter Advanced Functions.
After uploading this script to the IT110 Network Camera via FTP, check the
option “Enable the external script file
to exclude the following settings”. Otherwise the IT110 Network Camera will
operate according to the settings below.
Event operation
The IT110 Network
Camera provides general options for two basic applications, event operation for security and sequential operation for web
attraction. In event operation, administrators have to setup some conditions to
check and some actions to happen consequently. The conditions include motion
detection and the status of digital input. While checking “Detect motion” box, administrators
should click “Motion Detection” button on Video page or click “Motion
Detection” link in Application page to configure the appropriate
parameters. In the newly opened window, percentage of object size over whole window and sensitivity can be fine tuned to fit into the environment. If any
motion is over the settings, an ‘M’ will appear on the upper-right corner of image for
indication. The ‘M’
will appear in the image to indicate some motion is detected as long as “Show alert in image” is checked. If
there are any sensors attached to the digital input, administrators can set the
state to fire alarm. There are four states of “Input is High”, “Input is Low”, “Input
is Rising” and “Input is Falling”. The edge trigger like “Rising” or “Falling”
is generally used to detect the emerging signal from the external sensor. Once
any event happens, administrators can select “Delay second(s) after event” option to drive some device attached
to the digital output several seconds after the event happens and/or send
snapshots that are taken right at the moment. . If administrators want to
receive some snapshots to check the event,
please check the “Upload snapshot
while input condition match” box to
get snapshots when inputting condition is matched the setting or check the “Upload snapshots while
motion detected” box to get snapshot when motion has been detected. The IT110 Network Camera will take three snapshots of pre-event,
the moment of event, and post-event for video channel. Three snapshots of the
channel can also be downloaded via FTP or HTTP URL. Refer to the Download
Event-triggered Snapshots section for details.
Sequential operation
With this
feature, the IT110 Network Camera can upload snapshots periodically to external
server as a live video source. The interval can be set from tenth second to
several hours. The external server must be setup correctly in the Network
configuration page.
Sending method
Either event
mode or sequential mode can select one method between email and FTP. The
companied external server must be setup correctly in advance. If email is
chosen, the snapshots of the video channel will be attached in the emails. If FTP
is chosen, administrators can choose to add date and time in the file name of
snapshots. If the snapshots are used as the live video source, the date and
time suffix can be eliminated to update the same source file.
The option “Show alert in image” may be set when running application
wizard or configuring motion detection. Administrators should manually uncheck
it if no indication of motion detection is needed in the image.
Homepage layout
There are two
homepage display modes. One is "Image mode" that uses graphics
for links; the other is "Text mode" that mostly uses text for
links.
Administrators
may easily give the IT110 Network Camera a different presence of homepage. The
"logo graph" for the system logo at the upper-left corner can
be hidden; or the default image from the system memory can be used; or an
external resource can be used by assigning a URL. The "Background graph"
is similar. Default images of the system can be customized but limited by
memory size. Images from external resources can be larger and more beautiful
but will need more time to load. If the background is skipped, the background
color will fill the browser window. Administrators also can give the system
logo a "Logo link" to connect to another web site while
clicked. The "Font color" and "Background color"
can be chosen from sixteen colors as you like. See the Customize graphics in
homepage section in the Chapter Advanced Functions for how to
replace the default images of log, background and buttons of video switch.
If any necessary
image is lost while homepage layout is image mode, the IT110 Network Camera
will switch to text mode automatically.
View log file
There is some useful
information in the system log including current system configuration and
activity history with timestamp for tracking.
View parameters
The whole system
parameters will be categorized listed for administrators to check. The content
is the same as CONFIG.INI.
Factory default
It is used to
restore the factory default settings. This means any changes made before will
be lost and the system will be reset to the initial status as shipping out of
the factory. After confirmation, the system will restart and require the software
installation to setup the network.

Get snapshot via FTP
Administrator
and users can log-in the FTP daemon of the IT110 Network Camera to download the
refreshed JPEG image named video.jpg. The user name and password are as
same as what in web access. The zero file size in file directory means it is
captured by request.
Video Embedded in Customers’ Homepage
In additional to
the URL, some scripts should be added to download a plug-in for motion
pictures. The following example simply displays title text and a real-time
video window in Internet Explorer or Netscape. The user name and password
should be configured in advance. Those who are familiar with HTML can easily
add more components or rewrite a more vivid and useful homepage.

Download Event-triggered Snapshots
There are three
video image files for the video channel of three stages: pre-alarm, the moment
when triggered and post-alarm. Only the snapshots captured by the last event
are preserved. Administrator and users can use FTP or URL to get the saved
snapshots. They can also be browsed from the application page in system
configuration.

Uploading
Snapshots Periodically
Upload snapshots to external FTP server
In sequential
mode, the IT110 Network Camera will send out snapshots according to interval
and period settings. If snapshot files are intended for quick updates, it is
better to skip date and time suffix. The file name will then be video.jpg. If
the snapshots are used for occasional monitoring, suffix with date and time can
help administrators classify them easily.
Send snapshots to external SMTP (email)
server
Comparing to the
FTP method, email will induce more delay. But the email can notify users for
prompt action.
Customize Graphics in Homepage
While in text
mode, there is a small icon named BTN_TEXT.GIF preceding with each link that
can be changed by administrators. While in image mode, the default method will
use the image stored in Flash memory. The followings are the referenced file
name and size limitation of each stored images. Administrators may customize preferred
image under the size limit and put to the specific name via FTP. Administrators
can download the original images before upload for backup.

Usage via FTP is
illustrated as below.
Command Script
for Complex
Applications
Besides the
application wizard, the IT110 Network Camera provides a more professional
command script for advanced applications. The command script will be executed
exclusively with the settings in Application page of system configuration
except for the weekly schedule. To build the advanced application, follow the
steps below.
1. Use any text
editor to edit the appropriate command script according to the command format.
The script size cannot exceed 500 bytes.
2. Save the
script as a file named “SCRIPT.TXT”.
3. Use FTP with
administrator’s privilege to upload the script file.
4. Enter the Application page in system
configuration to define the time period in weekly
schedule. If it is supposed to run any time, keep the original settings but
check the option “All the time except for the above schedule”.
5. Check the
option “Enable the
external script file to exclude the following settings” to activate the command
script.

The script file
is limited to maximum 500 characters. The actual performance will depend on the
complexity of the command script. Administrators should reduce the redundant
check as possible. Overload conditional check and heavy actions may retard the
system operation.
URL for External Device Control
Query status of digital input
/cgi-bin/getdi.cgi
The IT110 Network
Camera will return the status of digital input.
Drive digital output
/cgi-bin/setdo.cgi?do1=<state>
<state>: C, O denoting Normal Close
or Normal Open respectively.
Download System Log via FTP
Besides viewing
the system log from the web page, administrators can download the system log
file, SYSTEM.LOG, via FTP. To log into the FTP daemon, enter “root” as the user
name and the same administrator’s password used in Web access.
Restart System via URL
/cgi-bin/reset.cgi
Restart the
IT110 Network Camera without warning.
Restore Factory Default Settings via URL
/cgi-bin/restore.cgi
The IT110 Network
Camera will automatically restart after restoring factory default
configurations.
Administrators
can use FTP to configure the IT110 Network Camera much quicker than Web page
especially for multiple targets. To configure system via FTP, first download
the parameter file, CONFIG.INI, to customize each field according to the
environment and then upload back to validate the new settings. To log into the
FTP daemon, enter “root” as the user name and the same password used when
connecting to the Web server. The serial number of the IT110 Network Camera is
the password for the initial access.
The file is
composed of eight categories: [SYSTEM], [LAYOUT], [NETWORK], [VIDEO], [ALERT],
and [DEMO]. The category name in brackets should be in upper case. The item
name in angle braces should be in lower case. Some items related to
disable/enable should use the keywords “YES”/“NO”. The number zero entry in
<user name> and <user password> is for administrators, i.e. “root”.
Basically the IT110 Network Camera will restart automatically as soon as the
file is accepted. If administrators want to cancel the reboot procedure, set
the first item, <reset system> to NO. It will take effect once only and
always show YES in the download file.
A sample
CONFIG.INI is attached below. The italic text following each line
describes the characteristic of the field and the bold italic characters
are the options of the field.

The IT110 Network
Camera has a Telnet daemon for only administrators to access some seldom used functions.
Using any general terminal program to connect to the IT110 Network Camera will
prompt the user for a password. Username is not requested here since only
administrators can access the Telnet daemon. The password is as same as that
used in web access. After logging in, type "help" for the command list. If "debug" or "dinote"
is not executed, Telnet will disconnect automatically after being idle for 1
minute.
System core debugging
General
activities are recorded into SYSTEM.LOG continuously, but information about
abnormal status is not. To look deep into the core debugging information,
administrators may type the “debug”
command. This will cause the IT110 Network Camera to start dumping the detailed
debugging information while the system is running. This is useful to examine if
any error has occurred when the system operates abnormally. The stored
information will be cleared automatically after the dump. The IT110 Network
Camera will continue to dump new messages unless the connection is broken. If Telnet
is not connected, any messages will be stored until administrators re-login.
Monitor changed status of digital input
Typing "dinote" will make the IT110 Network
Camera send the current status of digital input. After that the IT110 Network
Camera will continuously monitor DI status and send messages only when the
state has changed. For example, after typing "dinote" the terminal will display
DI1=L
and after DI1
changes to H, terminal will display
DI1=H
Stop information dumping
Typing "stop" will cease dumping debug
information and the digital input status.
Query status of digital input
Typing "diquery" will display the status of
all digital input once.
Set digital output
To set digital
output to connect NO with COMMON, type "DO1=L".
To set digital
output to connect NC with COMMON, type "DO1=H".
Erase snapshots stored in Flash memory
Typing "erase image" will clear all
snapshots saved in Flash memory.
Erase logo and graphic buttons
Typing "erase graph" will clear all images
used on the homepage. If no new images are uploaded, the system will switch to
text mode and use default images instead.
Skip installation at next boot
Typing "lock" will inform the IT110 Network
Camera to fix current network settings. It need not wait for installation during
the next boot.
Reset network for new settings
Typing "unlock" will make the IT110 Network
Camera give up current settings and wait for installation.
Restore factory default settings
Typing "clear" will make the IT110 Network
Camera restore factory settings but not restart. To validate new settings, type
"reset" to make the system restart.
Reset system
Typing "reset" will make the IT110 Network
Camera perform a software reset.
A. Troubleshooting
After the power has been
turned on, the IT110 Network Camera will perform a self-diagnostic to detect
any hardware defects. The following table lists the LED patterns in general
conditions. In case of any fatal error, the LED will blink in another pattern.

RESTORE:
1. Poke the wrench to press on the button continuously.
2. Wait for self-diagnostic
to run twice.
3. Withdraw the wrench as soon as the second
Q Why can’t I see the IT110 Network Camera in the installer after
reboot?
A The installer is only used to install the IP address of the IT110 Network
Camera. If the IP address is fixed by checking the option in the installer, the
IT110 Network Camera will no longer appear in the installer.
Q Why can’t I connect the IT110 Network Camera after reboot?
A If the IP address is not fixed, the IT110 Network Camera will
always wait for installing command for a valid IP address. That means the
previous IP address will not be used if the option in the installer is not
checked; or the option in the network configuration is not cleared. The benefit
of waiting for a valid IP address by default is that administrators can find
the IT110 Network Camera in the installer to prevent IP conflict. As long as
the IP address is confirmed, it is suggested to fix the IP address to make the
IT110 Network Camera automatically start up whenever regaining power.
Q What if I forget my password?
A Every access to the IT110 Network Camera needs authentication. If
you are not a permitted user, you may view the images or control the camera as
long as the demo account is opened. The demo account user may use username as
“demo” without any password to access limited features. If you are one of the
managed users, you have to ask the administrators for the password. If you are
the administrator, there is no way to recover the root password. The only way
to regain access to the IT110 Network Camera is to restore the factory settings
and reinstall it.
Q Why can’t I watch video from the IT110 Network Camera after it is
authenticated?
A There are many possible scenarios regarding this problem,
1. If you have
just installed the IT110 Network Camera and are unable to watch the video,
check if the video input is enabled and the video modulation in Configuration
page.
2. If the IT110 Network
Camera is well installed and you are accessing the IT110 Network Camera for the
first time using Internet Explorer, adjust the security level of Internet
Explorer to allow installation of the plug-in.
3. If the
problem still exists after adjusting, the current users may be over the system
allows.
4. In case that
you use demo account, the administrator may protect the video from the public.
Q How can I use a name instead of the IP address to connect the IT110
Network Camera?
A To allow users to connect to the IT110 Network Camera through an
easily memorized name, the administrators must first configure the name server
in his network. Here is an example: the administrator installs the IT110 Network
Camera with a reserved IP address and assigns it with a name in the domain name
service, then users can connect to the IT110 Network Camera by typing a name
instead of IP address. If there is DHCP service in the network, the IP address
must be excluded in the DHCP service to prevent from IP conflict.
Q What is the plug-in for?
A The plug-in provided by the IT110 Network Camera is used to display
motion pictures on Internet Explorer that does not support server push
technology. If your system does not allow installation of any plug-in software,
the security level of web browser may need to be lowered. It is recommended
that you consult your network supervisor in your office regarding the
adjustment of the security level.
Q Why is the timestamp different from the system time of my PC or
notebook?
A The timestamp is based on the system time of the IT110 Network
Camera. It is maintained by a real-time clock inside and automatically
synchronizes with the time server if the IT110 Network Camera is connected to
the Internet and the function is enabled. Differences of several hours may
result from the time zone setting.
Q Why does the image not refresh regularly?
A In a modem environment, it is because the bandwidth of PPP
connection is far less than Ethernet. If the difference of the timestamp is not
stable, adjust the UART FIFO lower in both receiving and transmitting from
modem property in the control panel. While in Ethernet, it may be due to time
taken in storing snapshots into memory upon events occurring.
Q How many users are allowed to watch the IT110 Network Camera at the
same time?
A To achieve the best effect, the IT110 Network Camera will allow
twenty users to connect at the same time. Excess users can get an
auto-refreshed still image in homepage instead. It is recommended to build
another web server to host a large quantity of users by retrieving images from the
IT110 Network Camera periodically.
Q How fast is the video rate of the IT110 Network Camera?
A The JPEG codec can process 30 frames per second internally. However
the total performance is subject to many coefficients as follows,
1. network
throughput,
2. bandwidth
share,
3. number of
users,
4. number of
video input is accessed at one time,
5. the
complicated objects in view results in larger image file,
6. the level of
your PC or notebook which is responsible of displaying images.
In general, the
transfer rate in general local network environment can achieve over 200
kilobytes per second and approximately 10 to 20 pictures of normal environment
per second. The general frame size is illustrated in the follow table for
reference.

Q How can I keep the IT110 Network Camera as private as possible?
A The IT110 Network Camera is designed for surveillance purpose and
has many flexible interfaces. The user authentication and special confirmation
in installation can keep the IT110 Network Camera from unauthorized access. You
may also change the HTTP port to non-public number. You can check system log to
examine any abnormal activities and trace the origins.
Q Why can I see image files when I use dir in FTP even if the alarm
is not triggered?
A Every time the IT110 Network Camera starts, it will capture the
images as vpre.jpg. If there are previously saved image files that are not
retrieved, the IT110 Network Camera will keep them until they are accessed.
Q How will the stored images be processed if the IT110 Network Camera
loses power?
A If user has defined the snapshot interval, the IT110 Network Camera
will capture images periodically. Once the pre-defined condition is match, the
pre-alarm images will be kept and the current images will be saved. The
subsequent images will be stored as post-alarm stage. User may retrieve these
files either by downloading via FTP or direct the IT110 Network Camera send
them in e-mails. That means after monitoring conditions are met, the IT110 Network
Camera will keep these image files until user retrieval even if power is lost.
Q If I set the IT110 Network Camera to send e-mails of images
whenever the conditions are met, will my e-mail account overflow?
A It is recommended to use transient state rather than steady state.
For instance, use ‘Input is Rising’ and ‘Input is Falling’ rather than ‘Input
is High’ and ‘Input is Low’ to let the condition be triggered only when state

Q The image is not clear enough. Is anything broken?
A The lens can be fine adjusted by rotating the outer ring. Please
rotate it clockwise or counter-clockwise to focus near or far.
Customers can
frequently check the appropriate product folder on our web site to download the
latest firmware. Only administrators can upgrade the system firmware of the
IT110 Network Camera.
Easy way via Upgrade Wizard
Run the Upgrade
Wizard included in the product CDROM and proceed by the prompts. Refer to the
user's guide of Upgrade Wizard for details.
Alternative via FTP
1. Decompress
the compressed file in a local folder. A file named FLASH.BIN should appear.
2. Use the FTP
program and change the working directory to the local folder where FLASH.BIN
exists.
3. Connect to the
IT110 Network Camera with user name as “root” and password.
4. Use the PUT
command to upload FLASH.BIN to the IT110 Network Camera. The file size is near
1.5 mega bytes. It will take approximately 2 seconds in a local network, 2
minutes by null modem connection or 6 minutes by modem, but still subject to
user's network.
5. After upload
is complete, close the connection.
6. If the
received FLASH.BIN is checked without error, the IT110 Network Camera will
update the software in Flash memory and restart automatically. When the IT110 Network
Camera starts writing firmware, both status LED indicators will stay on until
system restarts. It takes about 30 to 40 seconds. User must keep the power
stable during the update process. After the system restarts, the IT110 Network
Camera may need installation depending on whether the “Reset network at next
boot” option is enabled or not. After the IT110 Network Camera boots up, reload
the web page in the browser.
If power fails during the software upgrade,
the program in the memory of the IT110 Network Camera may be destroyed
permanently. If the IT110 Network Camera cannot restart properly, ask the
dealer for technical service.
D. URL Commands of the IT110 Network Camera
For some
customers who already have their own web site or web control application, the
IT110 Network Camera can be easily integrated through convenient URL. This
section lists the commands in URL format corresponding to the basic functions
of the IT110 Network Camera. Some RFC standards related to HTML may be a good
reference for implementation of the customized homepage.
