CHAPTER 1 Introduction

Digital video recorder for security applications

The Divar is a video recording system that can record multiple camera signals while simultaneously providing live multiscreen viewing and playback. It combines the functionality of a digital recorder with a multiplexer and a switcher.

The unit has comprehensive search (including a smart motion search) and playback facilities for viewing stored video. Once set up, all recording takes place in the background without requiring operator intervention. Maximum recording rates of 60 (NTSC) and 50 (PAL) images per second in total are guaranteed with unsynchronized cameras. The recording rate and quality are selectable per camera.

Bosch Security Systems

All models have extensive alarm handling functions and telemetry control. Alarm functions include motion detection in user-definable areas of the image on any camera input.

The unit can be easily operated and programmed via the front panel control keys and on-screen display menu system. One monitor output provides fullscreen, quad and multiscreen viewing; another spot/alarm monitoring. A keyboard can be connected for PTZ control and to improve the ease-of-use.

Via a network, the Control Center PC-application can be used for live viewing, playback and configuration. Six simultaneous users can control multiple Divars. The Divar includes an authenticity check for both local and remote playback. A dedicated PC player is provided for playback of secure video files. Additionally,

Divar | Installation Manual | Introduction EN | 1-2

a web browser on a PC can be used to view live images or playback recordings from a Divar. The PC-based Configuration Tool facilitates the setup of the unit.

ATM/POS transaction data can be recorded and viewed if the Divar is connected to an ATM or POS device via an ATM/POS bridge unit and has a license installed.

Looping auto-terminating video inputs, video outputs, alarm inputs and outputs, and remote control connectors are on the rear panel. The two monitor outputs provide CVBS video signals in either NTSC or PAL. Monitor A displays fullscreen or multiscreen digital pictures that can be frozen and zoomed. Monitor B displays live full-screen pictures.

Versions

There are various Divar models; 6-channel, 9-channel and 16-channel, each with various storage capacities. In addition, a Divar can have one or both of the following:

• An internal DVD writer

• Bilinx-enabled camera inputs

A Divar with an internal DVD writer allows you to make archives locally without the need for a PC. The writer supports DVD+RW, DVD+R, CD-R and CD-RW media.

A Divar Bilinx supports the use of Bilinx cameras. Bilinx technology embeds control commands in the video signal enabling direct camera access and control through a single video coaxial cable.

This manual describes the 16-channel version with an internal DVD writer and Bilinx-enabled camera inputs.

Both 6-channel and 9-channel versions operate in exactly the same way except that fewer cameras can be connected, there are fewer camera keys and the number of multiscreen views is reduced. Instructions that only apply to the internal DVD writer or Bilinx functionality are indicated by a double (**) or

triple (***) asterix respectively. If your unit has neither of these facilities, then please skip these instructions.

Triggers and alarms

Various types of events can change the way the unit works. These events can be:

• An alarm input signal applied to the unit.

• Motion detection in a camera signal.

• A loss of video from one of the cameras.

• An internal alert from the unit itself.

The way the unit reacts to events depends on how it has been programmed.

An event can cause either a trigger or an alarm. A trigger can change the way the unit works but does not require a response from the user. An alarm can also change the way the unit works but, in addition, it usually activates several indicators and requires that the user acknowledges the alarm situation.

The unit can react to an event in any one of the following ways:

Alarms

• A beeper sounds

• A status message is displayed

• An alarm icon is displayed.

• The border around a cameo can change color

• An alarm indicator , , or flashes

• The indicator flashes

• An output relay is activated

Alarms and Triggers

Background events

Triggers and alarms can change background tasks that you, as user, may not even notice. Unit responses that are not visible to the user are, for example, a change in recording speed, the activation of the output relay and event logging. The unit can also be configured to record and automatically protect video clips upon the activation of an alarm input. A trigger may change the way the camera images are displayed on the monitors without requiring your intervention.

• The view modes on the monitors change

• A controllable camera is moved to a pre-defined position.

• Recording speed changes

• The unit changes the way it operates via pre-defined profiles.

CHAPTER 4 Hardware setup

This chapter contains detailed information about the connection of external equipment to the unit. The connector types and their pin signals are described. All the connectors are located at the rear panel of the unit.

Bosch Security Systems

Divar | Installation Manual | Hardware setup EN | 4-2

Rack mounting

The Divar can be mounted in a 19-inch rack. A rack mounting kit is supplied with the unit that includes:

• left and right rack mount ears

• four Torx screws with integrated lock washers.

• a Torx screwdriver

Mounting

1. Remove the four Torx screws (two on each side) located near the front panel on the right and left side of the housing.

2. Attach the mounting ears to each side ensuring that the lip is under the unit. Use the four Torx screws with lock washers and tighten securely.

3. Install the unit into the rack using the rack manufacturer’s supplied hardware.

When installing the assembly into the rack, be careful not to restrict airflow around the vent holes located in the side panels or to exceed the recommended operating temperature.

Camera connections

Connect cameras to the unit using 75-ohm video coaxial cables with BNC connectors. There are two BNC connectors for each camera. Either connector can receive a camera's signal. This signal is looped-through (directly connected) to the other connector, so that you can send the camera's signal to other equipment. The camera input connectors are auto-terminating, so you do not need to add a terminator to the output connector if no additional equipment is connected.

If the camera signal is looped-through to additional equipment, make sure that the end of the video line is terminated with a 75-ohm termination.

The Divar automatically configures itself as a PAL or NTSC unit. The unit determines the standard by detecting the signal format of the first connected camera (lowest camera input number).

Cameras that support the Bilinx communications standard can be directly connected to the BNC connectors if your Divar version is Bilinx-enabled.

If Bilinx cameras are looped-through to multiple Divars, only one Divar is allowed to have Bilinx enabled!

Specification

Input signal: Composite video 1Vpp, 75 Ohm

Embedded Bilinx command protocol (Divar Bilinx only).

Color standard: PAL/NTSC, auto-detect.

Gain control: Automatic or manual gain control for each video input.

Connector type: BNC looped-through, automatic termination.

Bosch Security Systems

Divar | Installation Manual | Hardware setup EN | 4-3

Monitor connections

Connect the unit to the monitors using 75-ohm video coaxial cables with BNC connectors. The unit provides a 1Vpp CVBS signal.

If the monitor has a loop-through connection and you are not using the loopthrough output, then select the 75-ohm impedance setting on the monitor. If the monitor's loop-through output is connected to an additional device, the device's termination is set to 75 ohms and the monitor's termination is set to high impedance. (Note that this is not necessary on devices with automatic termination.)

Keyboard connections

The keyboard input and output connectors are used to connect an external keyboard to the unit. Connect the keyboard to the KBD IN connector. Up to 4 external keyboards can be connected when the optional keyboard port expander (LTC2604) is used.

For short distances (up to 30m), standard 6-core telecom flat cable can be used to supply power and signal connections for the keyboard.

For distances over 30m between keyboard and Divar, the Keyboard Extension Kit (LTC 8557) must be used. This kit provides junction boxes, cables and the appropriate power supply for the external keyboards. The recommended cable type is Belden 9841 or equivalent.

Divar connection

The KBD IN and KBD OUT connectors can also be used to connect several Divar units to each other. The loop-through connector arrangement allows easy interconnection of up to 30 Divars. The connection uses RS485-based communications.

The RS485 connection is not galvanically separated. If you have an installation where Divars are connected via RS485 and they are not located close to each other, you must ensure that they are grounded via the same, clean grounding wire.

CHAPTER 5 Menu system

You access all the parameters used to set up the unit via the menu system. The large number of parameters available gives you the opportunity to program an extensive functionality.

There are two ways of accessing the menu system, via the keys on the front of the unit itself or via the PC-based Configuration Tool application. Using the keys on the unit has the advantage of not requiring a PC and is the recommended method if you are using the unit in a stand-alone configuration. If you do have a PC connected to the unit or the unit is used in a network environment, then the Configuration Tool offers a more convenient way of accessing and using the menu.

In both cases the parameters available are the same. Slight differences in navigation and selection are only due to the differences between the keys on the unit and the keyboard and mouse interface of the PC. The menu structure is the same in both cases.

This chapter explains how to use the keys on the unit to access the menus. It also documents the full structure of the menu system. To find out how to use the PCbased Configuration Tool refer to Chapter 6.

Bosch Security Systems

Divar | Installation Manual | Menu system EN | 5-2

Overview of the menu system

The main menu consists of six menu groups:

History. The History menu allows you to trace all events that have occurred on

the unit.

Disk manager. The Disk Manager menu provides information and functions

that relate to the maintenance of the storage system including internal and external hard disks.

Time/Date. The Time/Date menu is used to set the actual reference time and

date for the unit and the format that is used to display them.

View settings. The View Settings menu is used to program how the individual

cameras are displayed on the monitors.

System settings. The System Settings menu is where most of the static

parameters for the unit are set.

Profiles. The Profiles menu is used to set up and store the dynamic

characteristics of the unit.

Setting the dynamic characteristics

The settings in the Profiles menu provide the opportunity to tap the powerful functionality of the unit. By spending some time in planning and setting up the six profiles available, you can provide efficient use of resources while maintaining effective cover for most types of working situations.

A profile determines how a unit behaves when that profile is active. Unit behavior includes how events are handled. It also defines recording rates both under normal conditions and in response to input and motion events.

Unit behavior can be set up differently for each of the six profiles. Profiles can be named and copied to facilitate their setup and management.

Accessing the menu from the unit

To open the menu:

1. Press the ALT key to enter the alternate function mode.

> The ALT indicator lights.

2. Press the menu key.

> The main menu appears full-screen on monitor A.

Navigating

• Use the arrow keys to move through a menu or list.

• Use the select key to select a submenu or item.

• Use the escape key to go back.

Access to some menu items can be password protected.

Profiles are usually based on a calendar, switching on and off at a particular date or time (for example, weekends or night). Profiles can also be switched by an input signal based on an external switch or armed alarm system.

• The History menu item is removed from the menu tree structure and is now

accessed via the History button.

• The Disk manager submenu is replaced by the Storage setup item of the

menu tree structure in the Configuration Tool.

As a result of the windows interface, selection and editing of some functions with the Configuration Tool is different to the methods used on the unit itself. For example, scroll bars are used instead of the arrow keys, the motion area selection interface is simpler, and the Calendar edit item of the Profiles menu uses a color code to add profiles to the calendar. The Configuration Tool interface, although different, is intuitive and does not change the functionality of the menu items.
