1.3 Prerequisites
The prerequisites are as follows: · Make sure your camera is always connected
to a PoE LAN connection. · Web browser (Firefox/Chrome/Safari/Microsoft Edge).
2. Introduction to Linear IV400 Management Application
An Internet Protocol camera (IP) camera is a digital video camera that
receives data and sends image data via the LAN or WAN using Internet Protocol.
They’re used for surveillance and can be directly accessed over a network
connection. This makes them easy to install and connect to your system, and
you can view live camera feeds at any time with any web browser, RTSP client,
or on a smartphone mobile app. IP cameras can handle recording video, images
and alarm management. The camera can record directly to remote storage media
such as a Network Video Recorder (NVR), local SD card or cloud platform.
2.1 Need of the Application
A security camera system is required for effective surveillance of perimeter
and internal monitoring, as well as creating a record for events. You can stay
connected to your daily operations by monitoring with your surveillance
system. This allows you to manage store lines, employee activities, and
streamline workflow based on live or recorded video footage of your business
or organization during working hours. You can monitor, with clear video, large
areas such as parking lots of any suspicious activity or accidents with a
powerful video surveillance system. Video surveillance can help enormously
with crowd control as well as prevent crime. It equips security staff with
real-time images from an event. Advance Security Systems can zoom in on
suspicious behavior before it becomes a problem. Law enforcement can also view
a video of public places like parks and common public places via a Security
Operations Center (SOC), from their smartphones or a vehicle laptop. Video
surveillance can help in monitoring traffic, such as counting the cars passing
through or improving the flow of traffic for better travel times. HD cameras
can even record fast-moving cars in challenging lighting conditions. Video
surveillance can help in transport Safety. Cameras can allow the vehicle or
train operator to confirm that people are clear of closing doors and that
everyone is safe.
2.2 Features
The Linear® IV400 cameras includes advanced AI features including Motion
Detection, Intrusion Detection, Camera Tamper Detection, Object
Classification, Loiter Detection, Line Crossing Detection, Object Left/Removed
Detection and Face Recognition (optional license required). Feature
descriptions are included with the event in the 7.4 Events section of the

Figure 31: Image Quality 1. Preview Window: Previews Live View. 2. Brightness:
Adjust the overall lightness or darkness of the image. When set to the lower
side,
contrast is provided to highlight areas and the medium tone is made darker.
When set on the higher side, the scene can be brighter while overblown
highlights are prevented. 3. Contrast: Adjust the range between lightness and
darkness in the processed image. It controls the gradation between the darkest
and lightest portions of the image. 4. Sharpness: Adjust the strength of a
subject’s contours. A lower number softens an image, and a higher number
setting sharpens an image. Keep in mind that increasing video sharpness
increases video noise. 5. Noise Filter: This noise filter is used to reduce
visible noise. 6. Saturation: Adjust the color intensity in the image. When
saturation is set toward the lower side, the image looks lighter and less
vivid. When set toward the higher side, the image appears darker and more
vivid. 7. White Balance (On, Off or Auto): This setting defines how the camera
processes video images to render true colors in a scene. When this setting is
On, the camera maintains automatic color balance for most lighting conditions,
including scenes that are outdoors, scenes with changing lighting conditions
or in scenes with more than one type of light source. Human eyes and brain
compensate for different types of light. Digital cameras need help to emulate
this process to compensate for different types of lighting and render a white
object white.

Exposure A photograph’s exposure determines how light or dark an image appears
when captured by camera. The IV400 has various available exposure camera
settings. When finished making revisions, click Save.
Figure 32: Image Exposure 1. Preview Window: It is actual preview of Live
View-Image. 2. Auto Exposure: Enabled this setting to auto-adjust exposure
level. Disable this option to set
exposure manually. 3. AE Metering Mode: Metering allows your camera to
determine a correct shutter speed and
aperture, depending on the amount of light detected by the camera. The
metering mode refers to the manner in which a camera determines exposure.
Cameras generally allow a selection of spot, center-weighted average or
customized metering modes. Set the exposure according to selected settings: ·
Spot: Only evaluates the light around your focus point and ignores everything
else. It
evaluates a single zone/cell and calculates exposure based on that single
area. · Center: Evaluates the light in the middle of the frame and its
surroundings. It ignores the
corners. · Average: Best used when shooting low contrast scenes such as
patterns on walls or floors. · Custom: allows you to customize settings,
depending on the scene. 4. AE Target Ratio: Slide the pointer to set the AE
Target ratio of Auto Exposure. 5. Minimum Sensor Shutter Time: When a slower
shutter speed is selected, a longer time passes from the moment the shutter
opens and closes. More time is available for subject movement to be recorded
as a blur. 6. Maximum Sensor Shutter Time: Faster shutter speeds can cause a
moving subject to appear unnaturally frozen. 7. Manual Sensor Shutter Time:
Set the Sensor shutter time manually. 8. Maximum Sensor Gain: A digital camera
setting that controls the amplification of the signal from the camera sensor.
Use the slider to set the Maximum Sensor Gain. 9. Manual Sensor Gain: Set the
sensor gain manually. Use the slider to set the Maximum Sensor Gain.
27
10. Shutter Speed: A camera’s shutter speed determines when the camera sensor
will be open or closed to incoming light. The shutter speed specifically
refers to how long this light is permitted to enter the camera. A faster
shutter speed means a shorter exposure time. Excessively fast shutter speeds
can cause a moving subject to appear unnaturally frozen.
11. Slow Shutter Mode: When a slower shutter speed is selected, a longer time
passes from the moment the shutter opens and closes. More time is available
for movement in the subject to be recorded as a blur. Enable or disable Slow
Shutter Mode as required.
12. Anti-Flicker Mode: Anti-Flicker is should be used if you are in a room
with fluorescent lights or you plan on shooting a television screen. Often
when using a camera in these environments, there is a noticeable flicker. This
setting helps reduce flicker. · Sets the Anti-Flicker mode on · Setting it to
50Hz or 60 Hz depends on grid frequency · North and South America: 60Hz ·
Europe and Asia: 50Hz
13. WDR (Wide Dynamic Range) Strength: Sometimes part of image is extremely
dark, and the other part is extremely light. This makes it difficult to
capture the information, especially during surveillance of area like a store
entrance. WDR balances that lighting to produce a clear image. Use the slider
to balance lighting for the image with wide Dynamic Range of lighting.
