Introduction Sensorii Operation Manual
1.4 Terminology
This manual uses the following terminology:
1.4.1 Camera System
Sensorii can be connected to one or multiple camera systems. of the same or differing
types.
Each camera system is defined as a link on Sensorii. The camera system link includes all the
parameters required for Sensorii to communicate and control the camera system.
Sensorii controls a single camera system at a time. The controlled camera is selected by the
operator.
1.4.2 Add-on
An Add-on is an additional imager installed on the same Camera System. An example of an
Add-on is the secondary camera located on the Accuracii ML™ Camera System.
1.4.3 Preset
Preset is a location or an object that the operator frequently views for surveillance purposes
or as a reference point to aid in calibrating the system. Sensorii saves the preset location by
recording the position of the camera unit (pan and tilt), fire detection parameters, and the
optical parameters (focus, zoom, intensity and gain).
1.4.4 Tour
Tour is a scan program consisting of a series of presets. Sensorii moves the Camera System
from preset to preset, stops the camera movement for a predefined delay time before
continuing to the next preset.

list box:

MPEG-4
3. In order to maintain a consistent video image quality, the bit rate increases as the amount of
activity in the viewing target increases. The increased bit rate requires a wider band width.
Select one of the options from the BitRate Mode dropdown list box to prioritize either lower
band width use or a higher quality image:
Constant – bit rate and band width use remain constant. Used when the available
band width for the system is limited. Lower image quality may result when activity
in the viewing target increases and requires a bitrate which is higher than the
target rate.
Variable – bit rate and band width use increase to maintain a consistent image
quality. Used in surveillance applications where there is a need for high quality
video, particularly in viewing targets with a high level of activity.
4. Select the relevant number from the GOP dropdown list box. The GOP length is the number
of frames between two consecutive I-frames. Increased GOP length can limit band width
requirements, but may affect image quality.
5. Verify the Bit Rate in the dropdown list box.
6. Click the Test Video button. The Test Video window opens displaying the video image.
Verify the picture quality of the video image.
