Page Timeout panel
This panel is used to automatically close (log out) the connection between the viewer
and the SME 100 after a specified amount of idle time has passed. This feature helps
manage available bandwidth, especially when a large amount of users are accessing
the SME 100 to view streams. A setting of 0 hours and 0 minutes means the timeout

feature on the Live View page is disabled.

NOTE: If both the

Hours

and

Mins

drop-down menus are specified, the specified

hours and minutes of idle time must pass before the SME 100 closes
(logs out) the connection. For example, if the

Hours

drop-down menu is set to 2

and the

Mins

drop-down menu is set to 15, the SME 100 will wait for 2 hours and

15 minutes of idle time to pass before closing (logging out) the connection to the
stream.

Hours — Use this drop-down menu to set the number of inactive hours that must
pass before the SME 100 closes (logs out) the connection to the stream. The range
of settings is 0 to 23.

Mins — Use this drop-down menu to set the number of inactive minutes that must
pass before the SME 100 closes (logs out) the connection to the stream. The range
of settings is 0 to 55, in increments of 5.

When the connection between the viewer and the SME 100 is about to be closed
(logged out) a notification message appears at the bottom of the web page (figure 75).

Streaming Methods
This drop-down menu selects from the available

unicast RTP pull streaming methods

(see "

Protocols Used for Streaming

" on page 20) to assist with network compatibility

where ports may be closed or blocked due to firewall settings:

Auto – Selects the best streaming method (starting with RTP, then RTP/RTSP, then
RTP/RTSP/HTTP) that will be used with the firewall configuration.

NOTE: If you are uncertain about your firewall settings, select this setting.

RTP (default) – Uses RTP over UDP to send stream packets to the requested
location.

RTP/RTSP – Interleaved RTSP; sends stream packets over RTSP using TCP.

RTP/RTSP/HTTP – HTTP tunneling; sends stream packets over HTTP using TCP.
