VIDEO COMMUNICATION SYSTEM-TECHNICAL DOCUMENTATIONIntegration with Sony Network CameraFebruary, 2008 / Ver 1.0©2008 Sony Corporation 13Connection ExampleThe determined bit rate and frame rate of the network cameras can be checkedthrough the "Rate" and "Frame Rate" items in the PCS status menu (Page 1/3).Note that "Rate" in the status menu includes the audio transfer rate.NoteDescriptionExample Setting Example/DeterminedCommunication Mode1-a-1(1)Main TerminalCamera 11024kbps/15fpsCamera 2512kbps/15fpsWhen the sum of the network camera bit rates(1024kbps + 512kbps) does not exceed the main PCS'sLAN bandwidth (4Mbps) and when each setting on themain PCS's network camera page is set to a setting otherthan "Auto," cameras 1 and 2 are connected using thePCS setting values.In the example above, camera 1 is configured via thenetwork camera settings to have a 1024kbps bit rate, butthe rate is automatically changed to 512kbps whenconnected to the PCS.Settings on Main Terminal (PCS)Determined Com.

Communication mode settings notsupported by PCS, however, are changed automatically.In the example above, camera 1 is configured asJPEG/VGA in the network camera settings. When it isconnected to the PCS, it is automatically changed toH.264/QVGA. However, a mixture of different bit rates,frame rates, modes (H.264 or MPEG4), and image sizes(QVGA or QQVGA) can be used.Settings on Main Terminal (PCS)Determined Com.
