Connecting the device

Video resolution vs. Digital zoom ratio
Since SmartFrame function requires a zoom function, it will not work with 4K resolution.

Change the IP address setting of the VB130.
Configure the parameters of the camera.
Set up AI tracking functions.
Change some advanced image and audio settings.
Pan, tilt, and zoom the camera.
