Package Contents The package should contain all of following items shown below. 9 1.5. Physical Description 10 2. Installation 2.1. Hardware Setup Before installing the camera, please make sure the camera is properly configured and tested before hardware installation especially if it is mounted on a wall. Please also make sure the power outlet is available near the installation site. I. Basic Connection (without PoE) A) Connect the camera to a switch via Ethernet Cable. B) Connect the supplied power cable from the camera to the power outlet. 11 12 II. Power over Ethernet (PoE) Connection A) When connecting to PoE-Enabled Switch:
The camera is PoE compliant, please connect the Ethernet Port from the Cable Harness to a PoE-enabled Switch using single Ethernet Cable. 13 B) When connecting to a non-PoE Switch:
Connect the camera to a non-PoE Switch via PoE Injector (optional). 14 2.2. Ceiling / Wall Mount Locate an area on the ceiling / wall and make sure the area is capable of supporting the weight of camera. Use the ceiling mount bracket screw slots to drill the mounting screws into the ceiling or wall. Twist the camera body into the ceiling mount bracket and route cables into the side of conduit entry tunnel. Twist the camera to set counter-clockwise carefully and slowly until it is secured firmly. 15 For Installation with ceiling mount hooks into the ceiling light grid steel framing, first use the hooks and screw into the ceiling mount bracket until fixed upon the ceiling light grid steel framing. When done, twist the camera until it is secured. 16 2.3. IP Camera Connection Before setting up the camera with your router, please ensure the Internet is ready. When camera is configured with the router with Internet connection, you can then access the camera through the Internet anytime anywhere. This section will guide you through the connection setup. Please follow the following guide step by step to setup the connection between your camera and the router. There are two ways to establish connection between the camera and router: Wired (Ethernet) and Wireless (Wi-Fi). PoE / Gateway / Router Wi-Fi Internet WAN Ethernet Modem 17 2.3.1. Connecting via Ethernet Cable Connect the camera to the router on the LAN ports with a network RJ45 Ethernet cable (shown below). You may use the cable that came with the package for initial setup; however, you may be required to switch to wireless setting or purchase a longer cable to extend the camera for longer range. As a rule of thumb, if your camera is close enough to the router use Ethernet cable if possible for optimized result; and for wall mount installation, its best to adopt wireless setup. You can choose either way for the application you find suitable. Gateway / Router Internet WAN RJ-45 Ethernet Cable Modem 18 3. Accessing the Camera after Installation There are several ways to get access to your camera on your network. You should probably have a setup similar to the following diagram. You can manage the camera using your PC, Laptop, Tablet or iOS/Android based on mobile phone; we will call it management station in the following context. The key point is that management station and the camera must be connected under the same subnet. Gateway / Router Wi-Fi Management Station Ethernet Wireless Setup 19 Wire Setup 3.1. Managing using PC or Laptop 3.1.1. EnViewer Finder EnViewer Finder is a tool provided by EnGenius that helps you discover the camera within a local network. You should be able to find the tool inside the CD. Please install the tool to your management station desktop for quick access when you need it. Please take note of the IP address shown. In this example, 192.168.0.101 is the camera IP address. Double-click on the icon to run. 20 The camera list at the center displays the discovered cameras currently connected to your router (local network). If you do not find the one you intend to configure, please click on Refresh to rescan the network until it appears on the list. Please turn off any heavy-loading applications such as P2P that may occupy your network. Enter Username and Password for the selected camera on the list. Click on Next to start configuration. The EnViewer Finder will guide you step by step through the basic settings Network, DDNS and Config. You can also switch between settings by clicking the icons on the panel. Rescan the network for camera. Go to Network setting 21 Go to DDNS setting Go to Camera Video Configuration setting Upgrade the current camera firmware Reset the current camera to factory default Reboot/restart the current camera 22 EnViewer Finder: Network 23 MODE: There are three modes that your camera can get its IP address. DHCP, Manually, or PPPoE. DHCP:
It is the most popular way in the home network setting. It will request IP address from your router automatically. The requirement is that your router should enable DHCP (which is basically the default setting for most of the home router vendors). You are not required to enter any IP related information. Manual:
You will need to assign the IP address details in TCP/IP section. Please ensure that the IP address is not being used by someone else in the network. 24 PPPoE:
If you are connecting to the Internet without going through your router, you can connect the camera directly to your modem (given that your Internet service is using PPPoE protocol). Please consult your local ISP provider for more detail. Basically, the PPPoE setting is exactly the same as your router. You need to provide at least the Username and Password to get access. UPnP: this feature must be enabled so that the camera can be discovered by UPnP services. Leave it enabled if you unsure what UPnP is. 25 System Time:
Like any other surveillance system, time is essential because we want to keep track of the time of the events recorded or detected by the camera. By default, the camera is connected to a public NTP server (pool.ntp.org) and its time is always synchronized with the server over the Internet. Normally, you only need to change the Time Zone. Choose the one that matches your location. Leave the other setting as default should be fine. Setting the wrong time server or time zone will result in inaccurate scheduling and time stamp. 26 Authorization:
You may change the Password of admin or Camera Name here. Please note that, once you changed the password. You will need to provide your new password next time upon login to the camera through EnViewer Finder or Web Browser. The Camera Name is the camera host name that represents the identity of the camera. If you installed several cameras, please assign a unique name for each camera for better identification. 27 3.1.1.1. EnViewer Finder: DDNS 28 Default DDNS name: Each camera has a unique DDNS name printed on the back of your camera. It is the default DDNS name. DDNS Alias: You may try to rename it (alias) to a name so that you can memorize it better. For instance, you can use your initials with your birthday as a combination; for example, ab19791220. Then you need to check whether the name has been taken by someone else by clicking on Check Availability button. If the alias is not being used by others, then you can access the camera with both your default DDNS and the new alias DDNS (ab19791220.engeniusddns.com). Refresh Time: options are 3HR, 6HR, 9HR, 12HR and 24HR. DDNS server needs to synchronize with your IP address often so that you can access your device over the Internet with DDNS name. Depends on your Internet Service provider, your WAN IP address lease time will be different. You can check with your local Internet Service provider for WAN IP address refresh time. The default setting is 24HR (which means DDNS server will check the synchronization every 24 hours). Normally, the default setting 24HR is okay for most cases. 29 3.1.1.2. EnViewer Finder: Config 30 URL The URLs are provided for your reference. There are many 3rd party media player that supports RTSP streams. You can provide these URLs to those players and view the camera streams in real time. Resolution Usually you do not need to worry about this page setting. However, you may need to know that the camera has two concurrent video streams running at the same time. Stream 1 serves for monitoring over browser while Stream 2 serves mobile APP EnViewer. The reason that Stream 2 has lower resolution (VGA) is that mobile devices have smaller screens and have limited network bandwidth than regular PC/Laptop;
therefore, keeping lower resolution helps to smoother the view. 31 Codec This setting determines what codec used for video compression. Please use the default for optimized performance. The compression method affects overall performance and media file size. The options are reserved for advanced purposes only. Max frame rate This setting determines how many frames are taken per second. This setting affects the quality of the video. High frame rate results in smoother video but larger video file. Please Select this option before hitting Finish button. This will open the web browser with the detect Camera IP address entered in the web browser URL for you. Please bookmark it to your favorite so that you dont have to memorize the IP address when next time you want to login into the camera. You can also use your DDNS name to access the camera management page. Either way works fine. Click Finish when completed. 32 3.1.1.3. EnViewer Finder: Upgrade EnViewer Finder also allows you to upgrade your camera firmware. The product feature may improve over time, you may check EnGenius official web site for the latest firmware. New firmware may contain bug fixes or feature improvement; please download the latest firmware file to your local computer first before proceeding further:
Click Browse and select the firmware file you downloaded. Click Update to proceed with upgrade process. It may take a moment for the upgrade process; please wait patiently. WARNING: Do not turn off the device in the middle of upgrade process. Terminating the device during the process will damage the device and may cause the device to fail. 33 3.1.1.4. EnViewer Finder: Reset You can reset the camera to its factory default state and your settings on the camera will be erased. Note: It will take a while for the camera to come back on again. Therefore, the camera will not appear on the camera list if you rescan the network before it resets to default and boots up. 34 3.1.1.5. EnViewer Finder: Reboot You can reboot the camera on EnViewer Finder if the camera stops responding for unknown reason. Click on Yes to proceed. Note: It will take a while for the camera to come back on again. Therefore, the camera will not appear on the camera list if you rescan the network before it boots up. 35 3.1.2. Web Browser You can use web browser on the management station to access the camera by entering IP address or DDNS of your camera. DDNS works only if your router is connected to the Internet. Please refer to the previous section if you do not know the IP address or DDNS of your camera. For this example we have our DDNS and IP address as follows:
DDNS: ab19791220.engeniusddns.com IP Address: 192.168.0.101 If you are using EnGenius Intelligent Router or IoT Gateway please proceed to Manage camera over EnGenius Router chapter. If not, please proceed to First Time Basic Setting chapter for more detail guide on camera initial settings. 36 EnGenius Router/Gateway If you are using EnGenius Intelligent Router or IoT Gateway, you can manage the camera through the router management interface. The benefit of this is that you can manage both the router and the camera on a single integrated user interface. Please refer to Manage camera over EnGenius Router section for detail. 37 3.2. Manage using Tablet or Mobile Phones You can manage your camera over Tablet or Mobile Phones using the free EnGenius APP EnViewer. EnViewer currently supports the two most popular Android and iOS platforms. Please search the keyword EnViewer in Google Play or iOS Store. 38 4. First Time Basic Settings Open your browser and type in the camera IP (e.g. 192.168.0.103) address or the given DDNS name printed on the label on the back of your camera (e.g. 0f9e76a.engeniusddns.com) using a regular web browser. 39 Enter the default username admin and password admin. Click Login to proceed. For the first time of login, you will be informed to download and install WebCMS. Please click on Download WebCMS to start download
(you will be required to have Internet connection on your router). WebCMS enables browsers to support camera feature. Dont worry if you are prompted with a different version number because the software upgrades from time to time. 40 If prompted with the following question, click on Save (Internet Explorer). Save the downloaded file. 41 Once download is completed, you MUST close all the browsers before install WebCMS. Double click on WebCMS to install the program. You may not have noticed, the installation is very fast, it only takes a few seconds for WebCMS to be installed. 42 When installation is completed, open the browser and login into the camera again. You should be able to see the camera viewer in live as shown below. If you do not see the viewer that means you did not install WebCMS properly or try login using other browsers. NOTE: If you are seeing grey color in the viewer, it is because the camera has detected insufficient of light in the room and enabled night vision mode automatically. If you point your camera to a brighter area, you should be able to see it switched to normal color mode. Try a few places to get a feeling on how it works. If listening closely, you may hear the click sound from the camera when night vision is switched on and off. Congratulations, you are now ready to proceed with further camera settings!

Language The default User Interface language is English, you can change the language with just a mouse click. On the language list, click to select the one you feel comfortable with from the list. The user interface with refresh automatically with your chosen language. 73 5.5. Network The Network setting menu consists of Network related configurations. 74 5.5.1. IP Configuration Each camera should be assigned with an IP address in the network for identification. IP Configuration setting allows you to change the method with which the camera obtains its IP address. The default setting Dynamic IP (DHCP) is applicable to most of the application scenario. However, advanced users can also change to Static IP or PPPoE whichever suit the purpose. Mode: Static IP, PPPoE and Dynamic IP (DHCP) 75 Static IP If your network requires Static IP, you need to specify the detail IP settings similar to above. Please note that, if you are managing your camera in local network similar to the example shown above, you will need to configure your management PC/Laptop under the same domain. 76 PPPoE If you are connecting to the Internet without going through your home router, you can connect the camera directly to your modem (given that you are using PPPoE for your Internet service). Please consult your local network service provider for more detail. Basically, the PPPoE setting is exactly the same as what your home router. You need to provide at least Username and Password to get access. 77 Dynamic IP (DHCP) MAC Address: Type in the MAC address to insert the local MAC address into the field. Click Apply when configuration is done to activate new settings. Note: If you have a working Internet connection through your router, there is no need to type in the MAC address. Providing such MAC address only if the IP address assigner binds each IP with a specific MAC address. 78 5.5.2. EnGenius Cloud Service You must Enable EnGenius Cloud first and then choose the Type. 79 A key part about EnGenius Cloud Service is DDNS. Dynamic DNS (DDNS) is a type of DNS that works with dynamic IP address. DDNS keeps update its mapping regularly and ensures a consistent matching so that your device can be accessed over the Internet using a fixed DDNS name. You can either use the default EnGenius DDNS Service or other 3rd party Service you prefer. Users are recommended to use the free DDNS address printed on the label enclosed in the package. This is because ISP often leases dynamic WAN IP address that changes from time to time. DDNS domain name will always be the same even if the WAN IP address changes. The domain name can also be found on your System Status page. 80 Default UID: default UID UID Status: when working properly, it should show Connected. Default DDNS: shows the default DDNS Alias DDNS Name: You may find that your DDNS is too difficult to remember. EnGenius provides free DDNS name registration as long as the alias is not yet been taken other EnGenius product users. You can check the availability by clicking on the button Availability Check for verification. In this example, superman.engeniusddns.com is available. That is, when the setting is activated, both DDNS name superman.engeniusddns.com and 0e95c28.engeniusddns.com can be used to access this camera. Refresh Time: options are 3HR, 6HR, 9HR, 12HR and 24HR. DDNS server needs to synchronize with your IP address often so that you can access your device over the Internet with DDNS name. Depends on your Internet Service provider, your WAN IP address lease time will be different. 81 You can check with your local Internet Service provider for WAN IP address refresh time. The default setting is 24HR (which means DDNS server will check the synchronization every 24 hours). Normally, the default setting 24HR is okay for most cases. DDNS Status: when working properly, it should show Connected. Note: DDNS will only work only if your router is connected to the Internet. If router is not connected to the Internet, your DDNS status will show Disconnected. 82 If you prefer to use third-party DDNS server, you can choose this option. The current supported third-party DDNS services are 3322(qdns), DHS, DynDNS, ZoneEdit and CyberGate. Choose the one that best suits your purpose. You should provide your account information so that the camera can communicate with the selected DDNS vendor. Your third-party DDNS service account credential should include the following information. Host Name: please enter your registered Host Name Username: please enter your registered Username Password: please enter the password for this Click Apply when configuration is done to activate new settings. 83 5.5.3. UPnP Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) allows the other device to detect the presence of the camera so that communication become possible. You should enable UPnP if you wish your camera to be recognized by your router. UPnP Traversal makes camera remote access over the Internet possible using camera DDNS name. You wont be able to access the camera if you disable UPnP feature. Please keep it Enable if you are not sure. Hostname: You may rename your camera to other meaningful names such as storage room, lobby, or any other descriptions you find suitable to describe the space being monitored. UPnP: Enable or Disable UPnP Traversal: Enable or Disable Click Apply when configuration is done to activate new settings. 84 5.6. Wireless Please skip this step if you only use wired setup for your camera. Ensure your router supports wireless connection and enabled. On the management page, click to access the configuration Main Menu. On the other hand, we also need to enable cameras wireless feature; please check again to ensure you have wireless enabled. All wireless related settings can be found under Wireless menu. The camera store several AP profiles (candidate AP list) although only one AP will be connected at any given time. 5.6.1. Basic On the Main Menu, select Wireless Basic 85 To setup a wireless connection, you must first enable wireless by choosing Enable option Click on Scan button to search for existing wireless access points (AP). When prompted with Site Survey window, click on Refresh button if you do not find your AP on the list. On the site list, choose your preferred AP and then click Add to AP Profile. Then, on the AP Profile Settings window, please check if the security settings are correct. Please review the settings: Encryption, WPA type, and 86 Pre-Shared Key type. They are automatically detected. Normally, you only need to provide the Pre-Shared Key (password). However, you can still change the settings if they do not match with the actual AP wireless security settings. Enter your Pre-Shared Key and press Save to complete the setting. Please wait for a moment for the setup to complete. While waiting, you can remove RJ45 Ethernet Cable from the camera. It may take a moment for the camera to detach from wired network and 87 switch to the newly established wireless connection with the chosen AP (your router). To check if the connection is successful, you can verify it by login into your camera again. In case the camera is still not accessible, please check your router again to see whether your camera is connected. Also, check the security setting again just for sure. 5.6.2. WPS Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is a network security standard that allows users to easily secure a wireless network. This feature allows user to setup wireless connection between the camera and AP without entering any detail wireless security configurations such as SSID, encryption method or pre-shared key (password). However, you need to initiate WPS process on both the camera and the AP at the same time so that they can find each other. Normally, for WPS-enabled products, you should be able to find the WPS button on the product. Only few rare cases that require user to initiate WPS process over web page. Make sure WPS feature is Enabled on both the camera and your AP or wireless router. Then, you need to know how to initiate AP or wireless routers WPS process first. It is mostly likely a simple push of the WSP button on your AP or wireless router. On EDS6255, you can initiate WPS process on the web page or by pressing the WPS button. WPS Button The simplest way to setup wireless connection with an AP or wireless router is by pressing on the WPS button. First, press the WPS button on the AP (there may be changes on the LED lights as signs of initiation). Then, press the WPS button of the camera. Wait a minute for two devices to establish the wireless connection. Done!
88 WPS over web page You can initiate cameras WPS process on the web page. First, press the WPS button on the AP or wireless router (there may be changes on the LED lights as signs of initiation). On cameras WPS page, press Start to Process. Wait a minute for two devices to establish the wireless connection. Done!
NOTE: For WPS to setup wireless connection successfully, timing is essential. Once AP or wireless router has initiated WPS process, your camera WPS process must be initiated within a given time range. It would be best if you have two devices in close range so that WPS process on both sides can be initiated immediately after another. 89 5.6.3. AP Profile You can keep several AP Profiles (settings) if your application may need to switch between APs in case one of them failed. Each profile matches to a specific AP. 90 5.6.3.1. Add WPA pre-shared key Network Name (SSID): enter the SSID of the target AP Encryption: supports Disabled, WEP and WPA pre-shared key WPA Type: supports WPA (TKIP) and WPS2(AES) Pre-Shared Key Type: Passphrase or HEX (64 character) WEP Please note that WEP has proven be insure, this security option is reserved only for legacy products that supports WEP only. 91 Authentication Type: supports Open System and Shared Key Key Length: 64bit and 128bit (the longer the safer) Key Type: ASCII or HEX Default Key: the key that will be used for authentication Encryption Key 1~4: the candidate keys for authentication 92 5.6.3.2. Edit On the table Select the profile and then click on Edit to modify the profile setting. Once complete the modification, click Save to make the changes effective. 93 5.6.3.3. Move Up / Down Each profile the ordered by the number at the front, the ones on top has higher priority when camera tries to search for the existing AP. You can change the AP priority by moving them up or down. Select the profile and then click either on Move Up or Move Down. 5.6.3.4. Delete Delete Selected: only delete the selected profile. Select the profile to be deleted and then click on Delete Selected button. 94 Delete All: this will delete all the AP profiles on the table 5.6.3.5. Connect Select a profile to be connected and then click on Connect to initiate the wireless connection. 95 5.7. Media All media quality related settings can be found under Media menu. These settings will have direct effect on the captured image or video. 96 5.7.1. Video 97 Enable: it is recommended that you enable Time Stamp and Video Title; the timestamp will show on the top-left corner of your video as shown below. 98 5.7.2. Camera You can get better quality by tuning the lighting condition of the camera. For example, in a dark room you may want to set the Brightness higher to generate clearer result. When directly facing an outdoor window (too much light) you may want to lower the Brightness a bit. There may be different settings under different circumstance; therefore, you should tune the setting if the image quality has become too low to serve its purpose. Please refer to the following examples for comparison between low and high for each of the light settings. 99 5.7.2.1. Light Setting Brightness Contrast 100 Sturation Sharpness 101 De-noise Please note that some of the effects will be more obvious in higher resolution at real time. 102 5.7.2.2. Flicker Control The supported options are: 60Hz & 50Hz Flicker Control is an anti-flicker feature setting. AC lamp can cause a flicker effect, which is a consequence of the AC power frequency (50 or 60 Hz). As the light can change from picture to picture, causing light flicker. This will lead to inconsistent light source between each snapshot. To eliminate flicker, configure your camera to PAL (60Hz) or NTSC (50Hz) modes to compensate the effects. Check the power supply of your region for proper setting. 103 5.7.2.3. Mirror Support Mirrors: None, Mirror, Flip and Both There are times that the camera will have to be mounted upside down for sideways. That is, the view become difficult to monitor when it is upside down. The Mirror settings does not reflect on the preview at real time (unlike lighting condition settings). Therefore, you have to click on Apply to see the result. The following examples compares none with a chosen mirror effect. Mirror (Horizontal) 104 None Mirror Flip (Vertical) None Flip Both (Horizontal and Vertical) None Both 105 5.7.2.4. Day/Night Mode This controls Night Vision ON and OFF. Auto: auto detect light sufficiency and switch between Day and Night automatically. Day: force the camera to turn OFF Night Vision. Night: force the camera to turn Night Vision ON.

Please be noted that these settings may have impacts on the image quality and performance. 108 5.7.4. Privacy Mask Choose Enable if you would like to put certain areas in private. Please use selected window to hide certain area for privacy purpose. 109 5.7.5. Audio Status If you audio is important to what you are monitoring, you need to set the audio status to Enable. So that the microphone can pick up sounds in the environment. On the other hand, if audio is not necessary (for instance an open space with a lot of noises), you are advised to Disable the audio to reduce the clips file size. Mode Only Mic: enable only the microphone Input Gain: setting the sensitivity of the microphone. High gain will result in higher volume and but picks up more noise. Encoding: supports G711A, AAC and G711U. 110 Sample Rate: 8 K Bit Rate: 16 Bit Changing Sample Rate and Bit Rate will impact the audio quality. The higher the rate, the better the quality and the larger the file will become. 111 5.8. Event Management This camera supports many smart features that allows you to utilize the camera in many application scenarios. This section will introduce each of them in detail. 112 5.8.1. Event Control When camera detects an event that matches the predefined condition an event will be triggered and proceed with the defined actions; for instance, taking snapshots or recording videos for the specified length of time and interval. There are two profiles for default setting, you can click Edit for detail settings or create a new profile by Add. 113
. Enable/Disable the event control Schedule to set the camera to record video regularly based on a predefined schedule. Time of day can specify the time range for each schedule. Trigger Type by Time or Detectors, if you select the detectors, it can be trigger by Motion detection, Audio detection or Tampering detection. Event Notification can send the message to user when event triggered, you can select Push message, E-mail and VMS at the same time. Event Action includes two types of the action when event triggered. 114 Record to Network Storage or FTP, please remember to setup and enable the correlate settings of Network Storage and FTP, you can refer to Ch5.8.1 and 5.8.2. Snapshot to Network Storage, FTP or E-Mail , please remember to setup and enable the correlate settings of Network Storage, FTP, E-mail, you can refer to Ch5.8.1, 5.8.2 and 5.8.3. 115 5.8.1.1. Motion Detection 116 Motion Detection Window is a hot zone that the camera analyzes for motion (image changes). When a motion is detected within the zone an event will be triggered. When the window is selected, use your mouse to move the window to the area you intend to monitor. There can be 3 windows at the most. The Windows are differentiated by color; Window 1 is Green, Window 2 is Red and Window 3 is Blue. Video OSD Prompt displays the warning on the top lift of the live view page when motion triggered. Uncheck the window to remove the window from the view. Sensitivity: Level 0% to Level 100% (with Level 100% being the most sensitive) Depends on your application, high sensitivity will trigger event more often than low sensitivity and produce more snapshots or videos. However, overly sensitive events will fill up the storage very quickly. Even if you have unlimited storage space, large amount of files can become a problem when you need search through each of the files to find what you are really looking for. It may take some time for you to fine tune the optimal sensitivity for your application. You can adjust the motion detecting area by dragging the four corners to resize the window. 117 Therefore, you can have a combination of three different detection window sizes. 118 5.8.1.2. Audio Detection Sensitivity Level: 0% to 100% (with 100% being the most sensitive) Similar to motion detection, high sensitivity will trigger events more often than low sensitivity and produce more snapshots or videos. However, over-sensitive events will fill up the storage very quickly. Even if you have unlimited storage space, large amount of files can become a problem when you need to search through each of the files to find what you are really looking for. It may take some time for you to fine tune the optimal sensitivity for your application. 119 5.8.1.3. Tampering Detection Tamper detection is a setting within your IP camera that will send you an alert when the camera is tampered with. Once an action has been detected, whether its someone trying to knock the camera down or blocking its view, the alert lets you know to log into the actions to see what happened. Video OSD Prompt displays the warning on the top lift of the live view page when motion triggered. Sensitivity Level: Level 0% to Level 100% (with Level 100% being the most sensitive) Depends on your application, high sensitivity will trigger event more often than low sensitivity and produce more snapshots or videos. However, overly sensitive events will fill up the storage very quickly. Even if you have unlimited storage space, large amount of files can become a problem when you need search through each of the files to find what you are really looking for. It may take some time for you to fine tune the optimal sensitivity for your application. 120 5.8.1.4. Event Action This page provides Event-related settings. Event Action/Buffer Duration until Next Event: can set 20sec(s), 30sec(s), 1min(s), 5min(s), 10min(s), if you set 20sec(s) for this item, system will ignore any trigger during this 20sec(s). Event Snapshot/Snapshot Duration: can set 10sec(s), 20sec(s), if you set 10sec(s) for this item, system will send a snapshot in every 10sec(s). 121 Event Recording Stream Type: H.264 (1920x1080) or H.264 (640x360) Video Length: the maximum video length of time per file Detectors Pre-event Buffer: the length of pre-event time (1~5 seconds) Record Duration: the length of recording time when alarm is triggered. Note:
If setting Buffer Duration Until Next Event to 30 seconds, the camera will keep recording for 30 seconds when event is triggered. In this case, if the Video Length is 10 seconds, then 3 files will be generated for single instance of event. If Video Length is 30 seconds, then only 1 file will be generated. Please note that pre-event buffer will extend the length of the video clip for the chosen extra length of time. 122 5.9. Event Server It is required for users to configure Event Server settings before setting camera Event or Schedule Recording. You will have to tell where the captured images or clips are going to be stored. The following concept diagram depicts the flow of the image file when and when captured. The file is stored at one of the predefine storage locations. 123 For EDS6255, Network Storage and FTP are required to have existing servers ready for upload. SMTP is good for small image capture since it sends the file through email. You should choose what is best for your application. FTP Network Storage:

Camera Connecting to EnGenius Router Smart Recording is an intelligent camera management technology that allows EnGenius users to manage cameras collectively with ease. EnGenius bundles cameras with Intelligent Router and IoT gateway series and provides a single point of entrance for integrated management. Traditionally, if you have multiple cameras installed you will need to go through the tedious configurations on each of the camera. The benefits of Smart Recording are as follows:
1. Easy and Integrated Access EnGenius 141 2. Integrated Storage Smart Recording technology integrates the EnGenius Intelligent Router and IoT Gateway storage feature and allows you to store the media files on the centralized storage over the router. 142 3. Easy Remote Access over Internet Traditionally, you cannot get access to your Camera over the Internet without some manual configuration known as Port Forwarding because your camera is installed under a local network. Smart Recording technology takes care of all the complicated setup and leave you with ease of control. That is, you will be able to access any of the cameras in your home by providing their DDNS names on EnViewer or web browser if you are using PC/Laptop. 143 5.11. Enable Router Storage Function The best thing about Smart Recording is that you can make use of the EnGenius Router Storage function. You should attach an external USB storage device (portable hard-disk or USB flash drive) to your router. Enter the Username and Password of your router and press Login. 144 If you have not yet enable Samba Server on your router, choose USB Port File Sharing. Skip this step if samba is already enabled. Then, Enable Samba Service and click on Apply to activate the function. On your routers Main Menu, Click System IP Camera to access the connected cameras. Note: that only EnGenius Cameras can be managed collectively by EnGenius Router. For other vendors cameras, you still have to configure them one by one manually. 145 You should be see all your cameras listed on the IP Camera Client Table. If not, click Refresh button to scan the network again. Please be noted that only EnGenius Cameras will be listed on the table. 146 Connect: You can get access to the selected cameras camera mange page. Add Profile: Add the selected camera to a profile (please refer to next section for more detail on Profile) 147 5.12. Camera Profile A Profile is an entry that represents the added camera. You must add the camera to a profile so that the router has the privilege to configure your camera and link them together. 5.12.1. Add Profile This example shows 4 connecting cameras on the router. We have chosen to add two cameras (Lobby and Entrance) for demonstration purpose. Click on Add Profile button to add the chosen camera. 148 IP Camera Name: Lobby (use meaningful name for better identification) Scheduled-Recording: Enable/Disable this type of recording Motion-Recording: Enable/Disable this type of recording Over-Write: Enable/Disable over-writing the old files when theres no space for storing the new files Folder Name: The name of the folder where the media files of this camera will be stored on the router storage.

Upon security prompt, enter the routers username and password to continue. 160 You can access the media files located under \\ENGENIUS\sda1\IP_Camera\Lobby 161 6. Camera Connecting to Other Router Normally, you do not need to make any changes to your router setting to be able to use the camera. However, in case if you experience issues in connecting the camera, you should probably check for the following settings. UPnP, UPnP Traversal and Firewall. UPnP and UPnP Traversal:
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) allows the other device to detect the presence of the camera so that communication become possible. Please ensure that your router supports UPnP Traversal and has it enabled. Most of the modern wireless router today supports this feature. You should enable UPnP if you wish your camera to be recognized by the home router. If you cant find the related settings, they are most likely enabled by default. UPnP Traversal makes camera remote access over the Internet possible using camera DDNS name. Firewall:
By default, the firewall function of the router is not configured to filter out specific traffic. However, in case if you have trouble accessing the camera view, its likely that the traffic has been blocked by the firewall on your router. You may want to double check whether you have blocked the service ports. Check the camera setting System Service Port.
