12. What type of compression does PelcoNet use?
PelcoNet uses the MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 industry standards for video teleconferencing over the Internet. They provide the most effective use of
bandwidth with excellent video quality.
13. I do not get live video in the browser but server push is working. What could be wrong?
Verify that the ActiveX plug-in is installed and that your video is set to 16-bit or 32-bit color. Also check with your network administrator to
verify that the TCP/IP ports PelcoNet uses are not being filtered and that you have enough bandwidth.
14. How do I program PelcoNet with Hyperterminal?
Using a null modem cable, connect a COM port on your PC to either COM port on NET4001A. Open Hyperterminal and set the port to use to
19200, 8, N, 1, and No Flow Control. Type service (lower case), and follow the help menu.
When accessing the unit through HyperTerminal, each time after the unit boots up the program prompts for the username (enter service). If
there has not been a reboot since you last accessed the unit, you can access it by entering ? for the username.
15. How much bandwidth does PelcoNet use?
PelcoNet’s bandwidth is adjustable. You can set it from 2 to 5 Mbps. Pelco recommends a minimum of 250 Kbps for live video at medium image
quality. Check with your network administrator for how much bandwidth to use.
16. Can I use PelcoNet with a DSL or cable connection?
Yes. You will need a static IP address from your provider. Also verify what kind of bandwidth you will get since it varies by location. Verify that
your provider is not filtering the TCP/IP ports that PelcoNet uses.
