- For details about the operations to start streaming from the application software, please see the manual for each application software.

- Streaming stops when performing operations such as displaying the thumbnail screen or playing back clips on the camera.

- Streaming may stop when the date/time is set while streaming.

- If there is a setting that disables VFR and other streaming functions in the scene file, streaming will end due to the scene file changing.

## Streaming with multicast

One streaming can be distributed to multiple receivers via supported router, etc., when the multicast function is used.

Select the [NETWORK] menu → [STREAMING] → [START TRIGGER] → [RECEIVER(MULTICAST)].

Select the [NETWORK] menu → [STREAMING], and specify [MULTICAST ADDRESS] and [MULTICAST PORT].

- Set [MULTICAST ADDRESS] within following range.

  IPv4: 224.0.1.0 to 239.255.255.254

  IPv6: Multicast address starting with FF

- Set [MULTICAST PORT] within the range of 1024 to 50000.

Specify the address of the camera and start streaming with the application software.

NOTE

- Multicast cannot start streaming with the operation on the camera.

- Depending on the specification of the device receiving streaming and the connected router, quality of the video image may not be preserved. When streaming by multicast, contact the administrator of the network being used and prepare appropriate communication environment.

- Disable the LAN card not to be used when receiving the multicast image to be displayed on a computer with multiple LAN cards installed.
