is similar to the high-quality area. If you select ‘Level 5’, the image outside of the high-quality area
is created at a very low contrast.
Focus sensitivity
Users may configure the zoom range with one click. The setting is from Level 0 to
Level 9. By selecting ‘Level 9’, a user zooms in or out at the maximum range.
Image quality
Users may select the compression level of the image. If the user chooses ‘Level
9’, VersaCam sends the best quality image. However, transmission speed
may be reduced because of the larger data size of each image. If the user
chooses ‘Level 0’, VersaCam sends the most compressed and least clear image but
the download speed will be fast.
Save File As
The User may save a still image from real time images. A still image can be
saved as Wavelet files (*.eye) or bitmap (*.bmp) files. Wavelet compression
files can be decompressed and displayed on Internet browsers such as
Netscape or Internet Explorer providing the appropriate plug-in or Active-X
module has been installed on your PC.
(2) Real-time monitoring
Users monitor real-time images by clicking the video control menu at the bottom of the homepage
after setting the channel, resolution, expansion, and frame rates.
Transmission Control
•
Gray Mode: If you choose this mode, the images are displayed in black and white. This may
allow you to view the images faster since black and white images require much less data.
•
Progressive Mode: In the case of ‘Progressive Mode’, the images are regenerated from low to
high resolution. This function is more useful when you use a low speed network or dial-up
connection, because it allows low-quality preview images to be rapidly seen.
•
Single Shot Mode: If you choose this mode, only one frame of an image is transferred.
Therefore, no other images may be viewed. To go back to the real-time images, just click the
button again
Resolution: The user may select among 5 levels of resolution (720x486, 720x243, 360x243,
180x121, 90x60 pixels). A high-resolution image is large, and will take longer to transmit.
Frame Rate: You can choose the transmission speed (1 fps, 3 fps, 5 fps, 10 fps, fastest). If you
choose ‘Fastest’, you can get images at the fastest possible speed. The transmission speed also
