Mircom CCTV System Optimization

V.0
This document provides tips and best practices for optimising your CCTV system to its best performance and maximum resource utilisation.

1.  Alarm/ event Optimization: Activate Ultra motion detection or smart VCA features (cross line/Intrusion) on cameras instead of Motion detection
   ● Supported cameras: Most of the Active deterrence, LE-G, SE and SB series cameras support UMD. VCA detection is a feature supported in most of the cameras from essential series.
   ● Supported NVRs: Mostly all the currently available NVRs in the portfolio are supported.
   ● Configuration*:● Advantages: Reduces false alarms significantly and provides reliable alerts.
2. Bandwidth Optimization: When using UNV cameras with UNV NVR utilise U-code which reduces your bandwidth requirements up to a quarter of what is actually needed.
   ● Configuration*:
   *- choose parameters according to client requirements ● Advantages: Bandwidth optimization provides longer storage on the same HDD as well as better streaming on mobile/ workstation devices.
3. Date and Time: Setting up the date and time with Daylight saving helps to navigate through the playback without challenges year long.
   ● Configuration*:● Advantages: Time stamp helps to navigate through the system in case of an event.

○ Set a strong password
○ Register email address (helpful for password recovery)
○ Set Date and Time (including Time zone and DST)
○ Set IP address (DHCP or Static) according to customer preferences
○ Plug-in cameras to POE ports and cameras will be added automatically via Plug n play
○ Auto search cameras using tab and batch add if the cameras are on the network
Highly recommended for bandwidth optimization and reducing false alarms
Advantages: Massive reduction in false alarms. comparison playback clip below:
Default settings (alarms counted for shadows, wind, movement of trees, etc)
Optimised settings using UMD (Human or vehicle only)

○ Ultramotion detection (UMD)

• Supported devices: Most of the SR3-G, SB-I0, SB-KMC, SE-I0 series cameras.
  Update the firmware to the latest version in case UMD is not found in the settings.
• Step-1: Settings> Alarms> Motion Detection> Turn on UMD> Draw detection area>
  Sensitivity 60% (can be changed as per site conditions)> Save
• Step-2: Copy settings to all cameras as shown below and save.
• Those cameras do not support UMD remains on Motion detection by default and can be configured with SIP as shown below.

○ Smart Intrusion Prevention/ SIP (alternative solution for UMD)

• Configuration: Settings> Smart> Turn on SIP feature> Set detection area> Sensitivity 60% (can be changed as per site conditions)> Save
• Copy settings to applicable cameras and save.

○ U-code (bandwidth optimization)

• U-Code optimises the total bandwidth requirement upto 75% which helps to increase the storage and better streaming performance through applications.
• Step-1: Settings> Camera> Encoding> Smart encoding> basic mode> save
• Step-2: Copy U-code option to all available cameras and save
