of the day. ⚫ Calender search. Recording types available include main recording, sub-recording and mirror recording. ⚫ Recording search depends on recording types instead of the storage way. Recording is classified as: all, alarm recording and regular recording. ⚫ To select all, search eligible channels; to select alarm recording, only search alarm linkage recording; to select regular recording, search all recording other than alarm recording.
⚫ Click “-” or “+” above the timeline to zoom in and out the time range. The function is especially useful when there are many video segments or the user intends to play back the video from a certain time range. ⚫ Click Up and Down arrow on the right to view the recording of every channel, like whether there is recording and the recording within each time period. Green means regular recording, red indicates unlocked alarm recording and yellow means locked alarm recording. 3.1.
3.1.3 Log Search Click Log Search to enter the log search screen. ⚫ Click “Next”: ⚫ Log can be searched according to time periods. ⚫ Log is classified as: operation log, alarm log, locked log and P2 operation log. ⚫ When selecting the alarm log, if the log has recording to link with, then the Play button corresponding to the log can be selected. Otherwise, it is not optional. ⚫ The user can directly play back and export the alarm log with video.
3.1.4 Ways of Time Synchronization ⚫ Ways of time synchronization include: satellite, central server and NTP sync. Single option or multiple choices are available. For multiple choices, the device follows the order of satellite, NTP sync and central server. When time synchronization by satellite fails, resort to NTP. If NTP also fails, turn to central server for time synchronization. ⚫ Time synchronization by central server is performed by the CEIBA2 server.
also set the start time and choose to delay the time in days or weeks. 3.1.5 Sleep Delay ⚫ Startup & shutdown ways: ignition, timing and ignition/timing. ⚫ Ignition delay: the function can only be enabled when the device is ignited. To be more specific, the ignition delay function is enabled and countdown pops up in the preview screen after the car key is off. If the operation screen is still the settings screen, then countdown is not started.
⚫ Sleep is designed to prevent the electrical level of battery from being drained when the voltage of external power supply is below a certain value. Low-voltage protection is added to keep the electrical level of battery from being drained after the car key is off. ⚫ Car key is on: low-voltage protection is enabled. When detecting the current voltage is below the protection voltage, the device enters the standby mode (MCU works while the host doesn’t work).
⚫ To add user, only common user can be added while administrator cannot be added. Common user can be edited and deleted. ⚫ Administrator has settings permissions. Common user only have permissions for query rather than parameter settings. ⚫ Exit time of operation timeout: the time users wait to exit to the preview interface after entering the settings screen. 3.1.7 Network ⚫ For vehicles to go online, three network access ways are optional: local connection, WIFI connection and 3G/4G connection.
3.1.8 Application ⚫ FTP server configuration means connecting to the server designated by customers by setting the FTP server parameters. For example, photos captured by MDVR can be configured to upload to the FTP server. The user can upload photos to a corresponding server according to the parameter configuration. ⚫ Firstly, the auto download function should be used in combination with the CEIBA2 platform.
manages the device download, like which vehicles to download, download via which kind of network (4G or WIFI). If the download is completed via WIFI network, the user needs to figure out via which WIFI-AP each vehicle is downloaded and how many vehicles can be connected and simultaneously downloaded for each AP. ⚫ Auto download reconnect means the vehicle enters the sleep mode and waits for the reboot and tries to download again after returning to the depot and failing to connect to the service.
and 9 screens as well as how many channels to display. For example, the device of customers has 4 analog cameras and 2 IP cameras. However, we only use 2 IP cameras to enable them to view 4 screens. ⚫ Automatically switch the channel of preview screen. For every switch, the user can set to display which channels and show them in which mode. ⚫ The mode includes: 1x1, 2x2 and 3x3. They respectively indicate single screen, 4 screens and 9 screens. For each screen, the user can set which channels to display.
3.2.2 Record ⚫ Dual-stream recording can choose the storage. However, currently, dual stream only has two storage options: built-in SD card and external SD card. ⚫ Recording mode: sub-stream recording, mirror recording, alarm recording backup and none. 1) Sub-stream recording: MVDR encodes two data streams, namely primary stream and sub-stream. 2) Mirror recording: completely back up the HDD data to the SD card. 3) Alarm recording backup: the recording will be stored only when an alarm is generated.
3.2.3 IPC Setup ⚫ Support auto IPC plug and play configuration, IPC quick settings and manual IPC channel configuration by IP search. ⚫ Support IPC quick settings. 1) MDVR with PON interface: do not support IPC quick settings (X1 and X3 have PON interface). It supports the auto discover function: MDVR will automatically assign one IP to IPC after connecting to IPC. At this time, MDVR won’t save the IP address into parameters and IP address will be reassigned after the re-plug.
⚫ Each channel supports the IPC search function and displays the searched IPC list information. For IPC settings, there are two situations: (1) the user can view IP address of cameras in Search using Streamax cameras, then he directly checks and views IP address; (2) the user adopts ONVIF protocol, then he clicks the IPC setup button and fills in information related to IP address. ⚫ Support to configure the IPC network segment address.
⚫ The user clicks “Edit” and the photo above appears. For cameras of ONVIF protocol, this channels binds the configuration channel awith IPC. Please note that modifying IP address here is not to modify IP address of IPC but rebind other IPC. For intelligent IPC channels, such as DSM, ADAS and BSD channels, calibration mode and normal recording mode are optional. 3.2.4 PTZ ⚫ Operation mode: serial port, ONVIF and N9M. ONVIF and N9M protocols are applied to control IPC using different protocols.
3.3 Data Collection 3.3.1 General ⚫ Device sensor connection cable: For IO cables, IO1~IO8 parameters can be set on this screen. Voltage and pulse are optional for the signal source.
to users’ requirements. ⚫ Serial port. Support two ways of serial port connection-RS485 and RS232. To configure 4 serial ports, 2 485 serial ports can choose 485 bus and 485 bus connects to standard 485 peripherals of Streamax. For each 485 bus, it can mount several 485 peripherals. Each standard peripheral of Streamax has a fixed code.
⚫ Four ways are available for the speed signal source: satellite, pulse, OBD and Atrack. Uinits of KM/H and MPH are optional. “Mileage basic value calibration” and “Auto calibration” are supported. ⚫ “Mileage basic value” calibration function. Calibration means the user sets an initial value for the total mileage. ⚫ The flow limit function. The user can limit the transmission speed of uploading data to the platform by this function.
3.3.2 Advanced ⚫ Connected to the passenger counter named P2 and temperature & humidity sensor. 3.3.3 Snapshot Settings ⚫ Snapshot includes: timed snapshot and triggered snapshot (manual trigger and alarm linkage).
⚫ Upload way: that is the type of server to which snapshot photos are uploaded. There are two types of servers: FTP server and central server. 1) FTP server: the user can directly log in the FTP server and view snapshot photos like viewing files in the Windows system. 2) Central server: that is also called the CEIBA2 server. The user can view snapshot photos by photo playback. 3.3.4 ECO-Driving ⚫ There are two ways of calibration: remote calibration and local calibration.
platform . If two versions are inconsistent, then configure the sent engine model to OBD. The whole process is called “calibration”. ➢ Local calibration: 1) Import vehicle information sheet to the device via USB flash disk (the sheet includes license plate number, OBD upgrade file version and CAN bus standard) 2) Manually configure the engine model on the screen. 3) Click Calibration on the screen.
3.3.5 Maintenance ⚫ Operation and maintenance configuration: the user can set a fault range. Once data falls out of the range, an alarm will be given. 3.
3.4.1 Base ⚫ Panel alarm: the alarm will be taken as an actual alarm after the button has been pressed for a while. Effective alarm time means how long the alarm can last before being off; Alarm duration indicates the alarm is recorded as effective alarm only once after being repeatedly given in a certain period of time. ⚫ IO alarm: Linkage settings are offered to each IO alarm. ⚫ Speed alarm: once the speed is higher than the set speed, real-time alarm log will be generated and uploaded to the platform.
3.4.2 Video ⚫ There are three types of video alarm: video loss, motion detection and covered video. They have one common trigger condition, namely “Effective alarm time”. Effective alarm time means that one alarm is regenerated in the set time after the previous alarm is off. These two alarms are regarded as the same alarm. Therefore, the processing result is one piece of log is recorded and alarm is reported to the platform only once.
3.4.3 Advanced ⚫ ACC alarm: internal three-axis sensor can set alarm for collision or changes in the position as well as link with the screen for settings. ⚫ Geo-fence: support switch-on and off of the Geo-fence. ⚫ Temperature & humidity alarm settings: the user can set trigger conditions and linkage screen. .
3.4.4 Linkage ⚫ Channel: the recording channel is required after the alarm. Channel recording will be marked as alarm recording. ⚫ Post recording: the time recording continues after the alarm is off. ⚫ Lock: the user can set whether to lock the alarm recording. ⚫ Linkage screen: the user can set to display the preview screen after the alarm.
3.4.5 AI Alarm ⚫ AI functions like ADAS, DSM and BSD, trigger conditions and linkage content can be set according requirements of users. ⚫ The user needs to check alarm snapshot in linkage settings to upload evidence photos and then set in Data collection-Snapshot settings. ⚫ After determining the ADAS calibration height, the user can set the ADAS algorithm height (cm and inch are optional).
