Administrating the Camera The trimming portion is determined as shown below: Point rotated by 180° around the axis of the center of the still image Still image Red trimming Center of the Clicked point frame still image To change the trimming portion, click on another point on the image. 4 Click OK at the bottom of the window. The cropped image is displayed on the main viewer. 5 To close the image, click in the upper-right corner. Frame rate Set the frame rate of the image. Selectable values of the frame rates are as follows. SNC-RZ50N: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 (fps) SNC-RZ50P: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 16, 20, 25 (fps) "fps" is a unit indicating the number of frames transmitted per second. Image quality (for JPEG only) Set the quality of JPEG image. Selectable values are from Level 1 to Level 10. When Level 10 is selected, the best image quality is achieved. Bandwidth control (for JPEG only) Limits the network bandwidth for the JPEG image data output from the camera. Selectable bandwidths are as follows: 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 (Mbps), and Unlimited Note Audio may be interrupted depending on the selected bandwidth. In that case, select a wider bandwidth. Bit rate (for MPEG4 and H.264 only) Set the bit rate of MPEG4 or H. 264 image transmission for a line. Selectable values are as follows: H.264: 32, 64, 128, 256, 384, 512, 768, 1024, 1536 (kbps) MPEG4: 64, 128, 256, 384, 512, 768, 1024, 1536, 2048 (kbps) Adaptive rate control (for MPEG4 and H.264 only) This function adjusts the frame rate and the bit rate automatically so that the camera plays back a smooth image to suit the connected computer environment. If On is selected, the MPEG4 or H.264 image rate is automatically adjusted. Notes • The actual frame rate and bit rate may be different according to the image size, the shooting scene, or the network condition. • When Adaptive rate control is set to On, the maximum transmission rate will be the values set in Frame rate and Bit rate. • When H.264 is selected and the image size is set to 640 × 480 (VGA) or 384 × 288, the frame rate used by the camera to transmit the image will be as follows: SNC-RZ50N: 10 fps or less SNC-RZ50P: 8 fps or less • When MPEG4 is selected, the image size is set to 640 × 480 (VGA) or 384 × 288 and the frame rate is set to 30 fps. The frame rate may be decreased when the bit rate is more than 512 kbps or while the object detection function is operating. • When the camera operation mode is set to Dual codec and the image size is set to 640 × 480 (VGA) or 384 × 288 in MPEG4 setting, the maximum frame rate at which the camera can transmit data will be 20 fps. • When the camera operation mode is set to Dual codec, the actual values set in MPEG4 setting and JPEG setting may not be obtained, due to the limitation in the capacity to manage two video codecs simultaneously. Use the following table as a guide for the settings.
