Appendix 5 - Browser viewer options
When you are connecting to the 
MC5-IP using a Web browser, a 
number of options are available. 
There are four options pages:
Encoding and colour level
Auto select
When ticked, this option will examine the speed 
of your connection to the MC5-IP and apply the 
most suitable encoding method. This option is 
suggested for the majority of installations.
Preferred encoding
There are three manually selectable encoding 
methods which are accessible when the Auto 
select option is unticked. 
•  
ZRLE – This is a highly compressed method 
that is best suited to slow modem connections.
•  
Hextile – This method offers better performance than the ZRLE when used 
over a high speed network because there is no need for the MC5 to spend 
time highly compressing the data.
•  
Raw – This is a primitive, uncompressed method that is mainly used for 
technical support issues. You are recommended not to use this method. 
Colour level
The colour level is fixed at Medium (256 colours) for almost all browsers.
Inputs

When ticked, the viewer will not send keyboard

computer.
