OVERVIEW AND SUPPORTED FEATURES
THE VIVOTEK CAMERA DRIVER SUPPORTS THE FOLLOWING FEATURES:
Video Stream: View IP Camera feeds in the g! system using MJPEG feeds.
Pan / Tilt / Zoom: Some Vivotek cameras can be turned to see various locations and zoom in and out.
This feature is supported in the driver, and is configurable using a dropdown menu.
IMPORTANT: Only Optical zoom is supported. Digital Zoom essentially crops the Video Stream in
the browser without changing the actual video feed, and is not supported.
Motion Detection: Vivotek cameras support motion detection to trigger events in the g! system. This
feature is supported in the driver, and is configurable using a dropdown menu.
Image Flip: The camera can be mounted with its base up or down, and the image will appear normal.
Simply set the “flip 180” option in the g! Configurator.
T
HESE CAMERAS DO NOT SUPPORT THE FOLLOWING FEATURES:
Megapixel Resolution: Some models support Megapixel (HD) resolution. This is not supported by g! at
this time, and only the cameras lower resolutions will be usable in the Viewer. For this reason some
models may be compatible with g! but ultimately not a good investment. In addition, some Vivotek
cameras exclusively support HD resolutions and are not compatible with g! at all.
Presets: Presets or saved pan/tilt/zoom positions are not available on Vivotek cameras in the g! system.
Input/Output: Some cameras include an I/O connector for sensor inputs and alarm outputs. These are
not supported by the g! system at this time.
Audio: Audio is not available in the g! system from VIVOTEK cameras as this functionality is disabled in
MJPEG mode on the VIVOTEK itself.
Authentication/HTTPS: Secure authentication for camera access (username/password) is not
compatible for use with Vivotek cameras in the g! system.
Other Features: Any other features not specifically mentioned as supported above are not supported.
Any feature not specifically noted as “supported” is not supported.
