Admin Viewer/VB Viewer
Access the Viewers included on the camera with a web browser to view and use live video, and configure
those display settings.
138
Two types of Viewers are included on the camera, the Admin Viewer and the VB Viewer.
All panels are opened in these sample screenshots.
Major Differences Between the Admin Viewer and the VB Viewer
The scope of operations for Admin Viewer and VB Viewer differ.
Admin Viewer:
This viewer, in addition to using video, gives users administrative controls, such as for shooting conditions or event
detection display.
VB Viewer:
This viewer is limited to basic image operations for viewing images.
Viewer Access Restrictions
Besides administrators, authorized users and guest users can access the Viewers.
The Viewers each user can access depend on the granted access privileges (P. 118).
Administrator:
This user is granted full privileges and can launch the Admin Viewer and VB Viewer. The user name is fixed to “root”.
The administrator can prohibit all camera access from guest users by revoking all privileges for authorized users and guest
users.
Authorized user:
This user can launch the Admin Viewer and VB Viewer if privileged camera control has been granted.
It is necessary to register the user name and password (P. 118).
Guest user:
This user can only use a limited set of functions. Guest users can launch the VB Viewer.
The four types of privileges for using the Viewers are privileged camera control, camera control, video distribution and
audio distribution.
Admin Viewer and VB Viewer

139
The scope of each privilege and whether it can be granted to a user is shown below.
Note
The factory default setting gives privileged camera control to [Authorized User] as well.
If you disable all guest user privileges, the user authentication dialog box will appear when you launch the VB Viewer. When the name
and password for an authorized user or administrator are entered, the VB Viewer can be used with authorized user or administrator
privileges, respectively.

Important
The Admin Viewer launched by an administrator can access only one camera at a time. While administrator privileges are used to
access the camera from a given computer, access with administrator privileges from other computers will not be granted.
In contrast, the camera can be accessed simultaneously by multiple instances of the Admin Viewer launched by [Authorized Users] from
different computers. Take note, however, that when controlling the camera, the control privileges are given to the user who accessed the
camera most recently.

When you select [Auto], [Auto (Flickerless)] or [Auto (Shutter-priority AE)] for [Exposure], you can select the metering
mode.
[Center-Weighted]
The entire scene is metered with an emphasis on the center.
Even when slightly darker/brighter areas are present on the periphery of the scene, an appropriate exposure can be
achieved for the subject near the center.
Use this mode if the subject is positioned near the center of the screen.
[Average]
The entire scene is metered and averaged.
A stable exposure can be achieved even in a capture environment where there are notable brightness differences
within the screen.
Use this mode to stabilize the exposure in scenes where vehicles or people are moving.
[Spot]
The center of the screen is metered.
An appropriate exposure can be achieved for the subject at the center of the screen regardless of the brightness/

a spotlight or backlit.
(4) [Shutter Speed]
When you select [Manual] or [Auto (Shutter-priority AE)] for [Exposure], you can select the shutter speed.
If [Manual] is selected, set the shutter speed in the range of [1/1 sec] to [1/16000 sec].
If [Auto (Shutter-priority AE)] is selected, set the shutter speed in the range of [1/2 sec] to [1/16000 sec].
When capturing a moving subject, selecting a higher shutter speed can reduce blurry video capture.
Setting a slow shutter speed may prevent Intelligent Function from working correctly. Select a shutter speed that suits
the capture conditions and purpose.
(5) [Slow Shutter]
If you select [Auto] or [Auto (Flickerless)] for [Exposure], select the slowest shutter speed from the range [1/2 sec] to
[1/30 sec].
Slower shutter speeds generate afterimages in video when capturing a moving subject.

Moving the slider to the left closes the aperture and darkens the image. Moving the slider to the right opens the
aperture and brightens the image.
(7) [Gain]
If [Manual] is selected for [Exposure], set the sensitivity to affect brightness.
Moving the slider to the left darkens the video, moving it to the right brightens video.
Important
If a traffic signal, electronic scoreboard, etc. is captured the video may flicker. In this case, try changing [Exposure] to [Auto (Shutter-
priority AE)] and then select a shutter speed lower than 1/100, to please refer to if the situation improves.
Setting a slow shutter speed may prevent Intelligent Function from working correctly. Select a shutter speed that suits the capture
conditions and purpose.

Setting Method Example:
Illuminate a white subject (white paper, etc.) using the light source, making sure the subject fills the entire screen, and
then use [One-shot WB].
Important
When the subject has only one color, is under low light conditions, or when sodium lamps, mercury lamps or certain other fluorescent
lighting is used, [Auto] may not adjust colors appropriately.
If [Auto] is set, and the subject appears greenish under mercury lamps, set white balance to [Light Source] and select [Mercury
Lamp]. If the colors in the video are still not appropriate under mercury lamps even when you select [Mercury Lamp], use [One-shot
WB].
Important
Since the light source selection options are based on representative characteristics, appropriate colors may not be achieved depending
on the applicable light source. If this occurs, use the [One-shot WB] function.

[Day Mode]
Captures normal color video.
[Night Mode]
Removes the infrared filter to increase sensitivity. Video turns to monochrome.
(2) [Day/Night Mode Focus Settings]
The focusing positions under normal lighting, such as fluorescent, and infrared illumination differ since the
wavelengths of these light sources differ. For this reason, set the focus positions for when Day/Night Mode are
switched.
This function can only be set when [Focus] is set to [Manual] (P. 161).
Click this to display the [Day/Night Mode Focus Settings] panel.
Important
When [Day/Night] (P. 165) is set to [Night Mode] (including when it is set to [Auto] and Night Mode is judged to be applicable), the
white balance function cannot be used.
Notes on Capturing Video Continuously Day and Night
If a subject that seldom changes is captured in a location where the light source changes gradually, such as when capturing a subject
continuously day and night, appropriate colors may not be achieved. In this case, applying changes to the image to capture will
achieve the appropriate colors.
Important
If you use [Auto], conduct a thorough operation test to check the effectiveness of the setting beforehand.
If you use [Auto], set [Control for Admin] > [Exposure] (P. 162) to [Auto], [Auto (Flickerless)] or [Auto (Shutter-priority AE)]. Note that
depending on the shutter speed when set to [Auto (Shutter-priority AE)], however, the mode may not switch to Night Mode even if
[Auto] is selected.
If you exit the Admin Viewer while [Day Mode] or [Night Mode] is set, these will remain in effect, even if [Camera] > [Initial Setting] >
[Day/Night] is set to [Auto] in the Setting Page.
To enable [Auto], set [Day/Night] to [Auto] before exiting the Admin Viewer.
If you use [Auto], the infrared filter may move several times while the mode is switching between Day Mode and Night Mode. You will
not be able to use pan, tilt, zoom and manual focus during this period.
If Night Mode will be used under infrared illumination, turn on the lighting before switching to Night Mode.
Important
While making settings with the [Day/Night Mode Focus Settings] panel, it is not possible to make settings using the Admin Tools on
another computer.

Moving object detection is triggered while moving objects are inside the detection area.
Abandoned Object Detection
Detect objects that are carried in and abandoned for a certain duration. This function can be used to detect
suspicious objects that have been left behind. Abandoned object detection is triggered when an object is left in the
detection area for a specified duration.
Removed Object Detection
Detect objects that have been removed. This can be used to detect actions such as the taking away of valuables.
Removed object detection is triggered when an object is removed from the detection area for a specified duration.

Camera Tampering Detection
Detect when capture is being disrupted. This can be used to detect when the camera orientation is changed or the
video display is obscured with spray, etc. Camera tampering detection is triggered when an area exceeding a
specified ratio of change is continuously altered.
Passing Detection
Detect when a person or moving object crosses a specified line.
This determines that an object is passing when the decision point of the object detection frame crosses a detection
line.

Intrusion Detection
Detect when a person or moving object crosses a specified area. This can be used to detect actions such as when
someone climbs over a barrier and enters a restricted area in a museum, etc. This determines that an object is entering
when the decision point of the object detection frame enters the detection area and the specified duration has elapsed.
Auto Tracking
The camera automatically tracks an object when it is detected moving in a detection area. This allows monitoring
movement, such as of suspicious persons.
Audio Detection
Detects audio input to the camera. There are 2 types of detection.
These are set with [Event] > [Audio Detection] (P. 107) on the Setting Page, not with the Intelligent Function Setting
Tool.
[Volume Detection]: Detects when volume level exceeds or falls below a reference volume.
[Scream Detection]: Detects screams or cries from people.
Notes on Intelligent Function Settings and Operations
When setting the Intelligent Function, do an actual detection/tracking test to confirm that detection will be performed
correctly.
If a sudden change in lightness or darkness occurs within the entire screen, proper detection may not be possible for up
to five minutes. When tracking, the effect will be visible as soon as there is change in the scene.
When the image is zoomed in (telephoto), detection/tracking may not work as expected.
Detection/tracking will not be performed while the Intelligent Function is restarting.

preset or home position is changed.
If [Status] in [Detection Setting List] is [Enabled] when the camera position is fixed, control privileges cannot be obtained
by VB Viewer or RM. Also, the preset tour will no longer run.
Difficult-to-Detect Subjects
The following subjects may not be detected/tracked, or may result in erroneous detection/tracking.
Objects or areas where there is little contrast in color or brightness with the background may not be detected/
tracked.
Small objects and changes on the screen may not be detected/tracked.
Partial or entire changes in brightness on the screen may trigger detection/tracking.
When there are multiple overlapping objects, there may be a change in detection. For example, objects passing
may either not be detected or the timing of detection may be incorrect.
When there are large numbers of objects in the scene, objects may not be properly detected/tracked.
Objects with little movement may not be tracked.
Objects directly below the camera may take time to be tracked.
Areas with bright reflections or selected areas that are very bright, can result in an object not probably being
tracked.
Pre-register Presets
It is strongly recommended that you register the camera angle as a preset in advance and lock the camera to that position
when using video detection. It is also recommended that the field of view that captures targeted objects at a larger ratio be
used.
For details on preset registration, please refer to “Register Presets” (P. 170).
Select the Intelligent Function Operation Mode
Video detection and auto tracking cannot be used simultaneously. When you launch the Intelligent Function Setting Tool,

As long as [Duration (Sec)] is not exceeded, contour lines are white.
When [Duration (Sec)] is exceeded, contour lines take on the same color as the detection area, indicating that
“detected” mode has been triggered.
How to Configure Camera Tampering Detection
For [Camera Tampering Detection], the entire video display area is the detection area. The area cannot be changed.
In [Change Ratio (%)], you can set the ratio of screen change for tampering detection to be determined in relation to
the entire video display area.
When the setting values or slider is changed, an indicator frame representing the area of the entire video display area
that can be obstructed is displayed for one second in the center of the video display area allowing you to check while
specifying the setting.
Detection Status for Camera Tampering Detection
All moving objects detected are shown with contour lines.
If an object is smaller than [Change Ratio (%)], its contour lines are white.
If the obscured area in the video exceeds [Change Ratio (%)], contour lines take on the same color as the detection
area, indicating that “detected” mode has been triggered.
Important
Set detection areas for removed object detection so that they precisely match the contours of the target object. Influence from the
target object’s shadow or adjacent objects may result in the target object being recognized as larger than it actually is and will not
trigger removed object detection. In this occurs, reconfigure the detection area to outline the recognized target object.

Auto tracking will start to track the first detected moving object. While auto tracking, other moving objects will not be
detected even if they satisfy [Tracking Start Conditions].
Auto Tracking Termination
Auto tracking will be terminated in the following cases.
Camera control privileges for auto tracking were revoked due to the following conditions.
The Admin Viewer obtained camera control privileges.
The camera moved to a preset position due to the triggering of a volume detection event or an external input device.
The camera panned or tilted due to the creation of a panorama image.
You obtained camera control privileges using viewer operations for auto tracking.
The configured auto [Tracking Duration] time has elapsed.
Tracking cannot continue because sight of the moving object was lost (examples: movement of target object was lost,
target object is lost in shadow of another object, target object falls below the sizes possible for tracking, target object
moves outside the possible tracking area).
The [Intelligent Function Tool] has restarted.
When auto tracking is terminated, a tracking OFF event is triggered and the camera returns to the initial camera position
(when [Specify the initial camera position] has been selected). If camera control privileges were revoked, the camera will
move after camera control privileges are released.
Tracking start conditions are enabled after the camera moves back to the initial position.
Disable Auto Tracking
You can disable Auto Tracking by restarting the Intelligent Function Setting Tool and selecting [Video Detection] (P. 214) in
the Intelligent Function selection screen.
Important
When setting the Auto Tracking Function, it is recommended that you test the auto detection, to confirm that object will continue
to be detected.
Large objects closest to the center of the screen will be tracked with priority during tracking.
During Auto Tracking, the object itself is not being recognized. Thus when two objects pass each other, or there are multiple
moving objects, proper tracking of the object may not be possible.
The camera will not track the subject if camera control privileges are enabled on the Intelligent Function Setting Tool. To allow
automatic tracking with the camera, you must release the camera control privileges on the Intelligent Function Setting Tool.
While auto tracking, preset tours will not start.
Auto tracking beyond view restrictions is not possible.
The privacy mask areas are also part of the auto tracking detection area.

This section explains the data saved to the memory card and the video data downloaded from the memory card to the
computer.
Saved Data and Data Organization of Memory Card
When [Operation Settings] is set to [Save Logs and Videos] in [Memory Card] > [Memory Card Operations] (P. 130), the
following data is saved automatically to the memory card inserted in the camera.
Image files of recording-mode stream that could not be distributed due to a network error (JPEG only)
Video files when HTTP or FTP upload failed (JPEG/H.264(1))
Video files manually recorded by the user from the Admin Viewer (JPEG/H.264(1))
Video files recorded by [External Device Input], [Volume Detection] and the intelligent functions when an event occurs
(JPEG/H.264(1))
Video files recorded using a timer (JPEG/H.264(1))
•Log
Note
Saving to the memory card becomes no longer possible when there is no space remaining on the memory card. When [Memory Card] >
[Memory Card Operations] > [Overwrite videos] (P. 132) is set to [Enable], old video can be deleted to save new video. When it is set to
[Disable], use Recorded Video Utility to delete unnecessary video.
Data Downloaded with Recorded Video Utility
When the video data of the memory card is downloaded to a computer or other device using Recorded Video Utility, it is
saved under a folder structure and file name like the following.
Folder Structure
Example: H.264 video, manually recorded using a camera with an IP address of 192.168.100.1, on Sept. 10, 2014,
from 16:00:00 to 16:59:59 (Camera Time Zone: GMT+09:00).
(1) Folder specified with [Download to]
(2) IP address of the camera
(3) Video recording date
(4) Recording start and end times (UTC)
(5) Time difference from UTC
(6) Recording type
E: Event
M: Manual recording
R: Recording-mode stream
T: Timer
U: Upload
O: ONVIF
(7) Video format (JPEG or H.264)
Note
A folder is created once per hour.
If the time difference is added to the starting and ending times, it will equal the local time.

File Name Format
Example: Video, manually recorded on Sept. 10, 2014, starting from 16:06:19 (Camera Time Zone: GMT+09:00).
(1) Video recording date
(2) File creation time (UTC)
(3) Recording start time (UTC)
(4) Recording type
E: Event
M: Manual recording
R: Recording-mode stream
T: Timer
U: Upload
O: ONVIF
Note
The file creation time will be earlier than the actual start of recording time.
If multiple video files were created because recording continued for several seconds or more, a new file name with different
values for (2) and the sequential number ending will be used. In the above example, if recording starts at (16:06:19), and the new
file is switched to 4 seconds later, the file name will be as follows.
20140910070623-070619-M000000002.mov
Since this is a continuation of the recording that started at 16:09:19, the recording start time (3) will remain as “070619”. The
sequential number at the end of the file name will be increased by one increment.
20140910 070618 - 070619 - M 000000001.mov

For the server settings, contact your System Administrator.
Video cannot be recorded on an memory
card.
To record video to an memory card when an event occurs, check the [Video Record
Action] settings under [Video Record] > [Memory Card] >[Video Record Setting] in
the Setting Page. When [Video Record Action] is set to [Upload], change it to [Record
to Memory Card].
When recording-mode stream video that could not be transmitted due to network
errors or video for which the HTTP/FTP upload failed is not stored on the memory card,
check [Operation Settings] under [Video Record] > [Memory Card] > [Memory Card
Operations] in the Setting Page. When [Operation Settings] is set to [Save Log],
change it to [Save Logs and Videos].
To manually save recordings to an memory card, obtain camera control privileges.
Files cannot be saved in the Setting Page or
Admin Tools.
Windows prohibits saving to certain folders. Accordingly, an attempt to save a file may

Setting Page to check [Video Management Information Status]. When [Video
Management Information Recreation Required] is displayed, click [Exec] in [Recreate
Video Management Information] under [Memory Card Operations]. When video
management information has been recreated, make sure that [Video Management
Information Status] is [Normal].
It takes a long time for the Recorded Video
Utility to display the video list.
When a large number of files have been recorded onto a memory card, the Recorded
Video Utility can take a considerable amount of time to process the video list (the
greater the number of files, the longer it will take). Please reduce the number of days
saved in [Auto Video Delete], or manually delete unneeded files with the Recorded
Video Utility, on a regular basis.
The number of files saved on the memory card can greatly be reduced, by using
H.264 as the video format, instead of JPEG.
