17 Administrator’s Capabilities Fine-Tuning for Best Performance There are a few choices the Adm inistrator is allowed to maximize the capa bilities of the Network Camera. Best performance genera lly equates to the fastest image refresh rate with the best video quality , and at the lowest network bandwidth a s possible.
18 to 25 fps or 3 0 fps. If you are shooting fast-moving images, you may want to slow the maximum frame r ate down to 20 fps in order to lower the rate of data transmission. This allows for better video quality and the human eyes cannot rea dily detect the differences between those of 20, 25, or 30 frames per second.
19 Opening Accounts for New Users Protect Network Camera by passwords Network Camera is shipped without any password by default.
