This page is for setting manual multicast transmission.
[Multicast] Page
TOPAll items can be set when you log in as “admin”.
If you log in as “operator”, you are only allowed to start or stop transmission.
When you are logged in as “admin”, press the [OK] button to save changes made on this page.
When you are logged in as “admin”, a warning message will appear if you press the [OK] button upon entering an invalid value, and the entry will be denied. Press the [Cancel] button to restore the invalid entry to the value before the change was made. If you press the [Cancel] button, other changed items will also be restored to the values before the change was made.
Memo
When the power of the camera is turned off accidentally during multicast transmission, multicast transmission will restart automatically after the camera is rebooted.
Settings
Setting values with 
are default values.
Encoder No.1 to No.3
For setting manual distribution by Encoder No.1 to No.3.
Memo
Only the setting options for the encoder in operation will be displayed.
Encode
Displays the [Encode] settings specified for each encoder.
[Displayed values: JPEG, H.264 Baseline, H.264 High]
Framesize
Displays the [Framesize] settings specified for each encoder.
Framerate
Displays the [Framerate] for multicast transmission.
The frame rate can be changed when Encode is set to “JPEG”.
[Set values: 30 fps, 15 fps, 10 fps, 7.5 fps, 5 fps, 3 fps, 2 fps, 1 fps, 1/2 fps, 1/3 fps, 1/5 fps, 1/10 fps, 1/30 fps]
Memo
You can specify a frame rate that does not exceed the upper limit specified in the [Basic Setting2] page or [Encoding] page.
Destination Address
For specifying the destination address of multicast transmission.
Specify the multicast address. When other devices that make use of multicast transmission exist, ensure that each of them is set to a different multicast address.
[(Factory default) Encoder No.1: 225.0.1.1, Encoder No.2: 225.0.2.1, Encoder No.3: 225.0.4.1]
Destination Port
For specifying the destination port number for multicast transmission.
Specify an even number for RTP compliance. When other devices that make use of multicast transmission exist, it is recommended that each of them be set to a different port number.
Multiple multicast streams cannot be received on a single computer when there are duplicate port numbers.
[(Factory default) Encoder No.1: 49152, Encoder No.2: 59152, Encoder No.3: 29152]
Start
Saves the [Framerate], [Destination Address], and [Destination Port] settings, and starts manual distribution.
It is displayed as a [Stop] button during distribution.
[Framerate], [Destination Address], and [Destination Port] cannot be changed while distribution is in progress.
EncoderNo.4: Audio
For setting manual distribution by EncoderNo.4.
