Intended audience
Operations and maintenance managers and technicians in charge of IP camera installations and/or maintenance.
Prerequisites
Basic knowledge of IP networks, TCP/IP, network architectures. Knowledge equivalent to that provided by the course Video surveillance over IP, deploying a network (ref. VID) desirable.
Practical details
Hands-on work
Realized on cameras and encoders from several manufacturers and IP network types.
Course schedule
1 Introduction
- Legislation, video surveillance installation requirements, video protection.
- IP video network: components, operation.
- CPU, bandwidth and storage issues.
- Types of IP cameras and encoders.
- Analog and IP camera functions.
- Software for camera configuration.
- IP cameras: strengths and weaknesses.
Demonstration
Connection of several fixed, motorized, varifocal cameras, encoders, NVRs, comparison with analog. Illustration of differences between manufacturers (using videos).
2 Camera selection and configuration
- Sources of information before setting parameters.
- Which camera for which use and which settings?
- Compliance with addressing plan, recording times and capacities.
- Firmware, VMS: factory settings and restoration.
- Network, time and security settings.
- Image settings: exposure, gain, shutter.
- Video stream settings, cropping, bitrates, quality, limits.
- Mask settings, detection zones and events, maintenance.
Hands-on work
Create an addressing and storage plan, connect, detect and make the main IP settings for cameras and IP encoders. Make optical and data rate adjustments.
3 Malfunctions that may occur on initial implementation
- Problem-solving methodology.
- Accessories for work on IP and POE IP networks.
- Networks: physical, transport, network or application, cabling or active elements (power supply, etc.).
- Optical, mechanical and software adjustments, settings, flow rates.
- Linked to servers, video walls and client workstations, recorders.
Hands-on work
Diagnose the possible causes of a breakdown. Replace a camera with an equivalent configuration.
4 Breakdowns during operation
- Sources of information prior to maintenance.
- Monitoring and maintenance technical file.
- Pre-maintenance site audit.
- Detect a drop in system performance.
- Most frequent preventive and corrective operations (cameras, servers, networks, storage).
- MTBF, YFR and spare parts.
Hands-on work
Creation of a site logbook.
