Chapter 3: Using the Web Interface
Settings:
1. By default the Settings section is open. If not, click the Settings title
bar.
2. Click Edit Settings.
3. Enter a name for the webcam. Up to 64 ASCII printable characters
are supported.
If configured to store snapshots on a
remote
server, the
webcam's name determines the name of the folder where
snapshots are stored. See
Changing Storage Settings
(on page
341) and
Identifying Snapshots Folders on Remote Servers
(on
page
343).
It is suggested to customize a webcam's name prior to saving
snapshots on the remote server. In case you change the
webcam's name after saving any snapshots, BCM2 will create a
new folder with the new webcam name while keeping the old
folder with the old name.
4. Type the location information in each location field as needed. Up to
63 ASCII printable characters are supported.
Note that the location data you enter is not available in those
snapshots stored on remote servers.
Tip: If the webcam's location is important, you can customize the
webcam's name based on its location when configuring BCM2 to
save snapshots onto a remote server.
5. Select a resolution for the webcam.
If you connect two webcams to one USB-A port using a powered
USB hub, set the resolution to 352x288 or lower for optimal
performance.
6. Select the webcam mode.
The webcam enters the video mode.
Set the 'Framerate' (frames per second) as
needed.
The webcam shows static images captured by the
webcam at a regular interval.
To determine the interval, set the 'Time Between
Snapshots' (seconds) as needed.
7. Click Save. The changes made to the settings are applied to the live
session in the above
Live Preview
section immediately.
