INSTALLATION

2. INSTALLATION ATTENTION: The installation should be effected by qualified personnel only. Connect

power source only after having finished the further installation.

2.1 Delivery scope

Check the delivery scope (see 4.) before starting the installation.

2.2 Video connection installation

Sample installation with maximum camera and monitor configuration:

Cameras and monitors have to be cabled with 75 Ohm video cable, e.g. RG-59, RG-12 and suitable BNC plugs.

Due to inappropriate absorbability, 50 Ohm coax cable (e.g. RG58), antenna cable and further types of coax cable are not suitable.

All connected video sources must provide a 1 Vpp PAL/CCIR standard video signal. When interconnecting transmission lines (twisted pair, fibre optics, radio) to the video

inputs, ensure the accurate receiver calibration. The MAIN monitor may optionally be connected through a Y-C (S-Video) cable to achieve

an improved image quality. If the optional VGA-board is installed, MAIN monitor may be connected by VGA cable.

For local DVR operation, MAIN monitor connection is compulsory. Callmon itor can be connected optionally.

EDR910_1610_ma_en_rev1 00 - 13 -

2.3 RS-485 keyboard installation

All EDR910/1610 functions can be remote-controlled by the EKB 500 universal keyboard. Using the EEPbus protocol, digital video recorders, keyboards and speed domes can be installed on one single RS-485 bus. One system can comprise up to 8 keyboards.

2.3.1 General RS-485 bus installation EKB-500 uses an RS-485 simplex wiring; the signal is transferred via a single twisted

pair line. CAT5 network cable is recommended, UPT version (unshielded) is sufficient for normal application. A shielded cable should be used if the installed cables are expected to be highly susceptible to interferences. The number of devices installed in one bus is limited to 32 (expandable through signal distributors).

Basically, the bus should be created by serial wiring, star wiring is only permitted using signal distributors.

Maximum RS-485 bus cable length is 1200 m. Both the first and the last device are normally 120 Ohm terminated in order to minimize line reflexions.

RS-485 bus serial wiring

Cable length from box to device („Stubs“) has to be limited to 2m using connector box es.

RS-485 bus serial wiring with connector boxes and connection cable

A direct RS-485 bus star wiring is not supported; star wiring requires the use of signal distributors.

Improper RS-485 bus star wiring

EDR910_1610_ma_en_rev1 00 - 14 -

If star wiring is inevitable, EDA 997A RS-485 signal distributors may be used. The maximum system cable length can also be expanded by using these distributors, physically providing a new RS-485 bus with 1200 m cable length each at every distributor output.

Star wiring with RS-485 signal distributor

In case the maximum number of 32 bus participants is exceeded, the number of connected devices can be increased by using RS-485 distributors. Each distributor output physically provides one RS-485 bus which enables the additional connection of 31 further devices (the distributor output represents one bus participant itself).

The maximum system expandability depends on the RS-485 address rang e of the installed devices.

System expansion with RS-485 signal distributor

ATTENTION: The RS-485 signal distributor EDA997A is unidirectional! This means that the signal only flows from the input towards the outputs. Therefore, e.g. the interconnection of several keyboards is not possible with this signal distributor!

EDR910_1610_ma_en_rev1 00 - 15 -

2.3.2 RS-485 plug connection assignment The two RS-485 input RJ-45 plugs are looped through and pin-compatible. The following

RJ-45 plug assignment has to be considered for connection:

Pin 3: RS-485 + Pin 6: RS-485 -

The following illustration shows the connector box assignment of the optional EDA998 connection kit (connector box, patch cable):

2.3.3 EKB-500 connection with network patch cable For a simple, short distance installation, recorder and keyboard can directly be connected

using a standard network cable (patch cable, uncrossed!).

EDR910_1610_ma_en_rev1 00 - 16 -

2.3.4 EKB-500 connection to several DVRs For long distance installations connecting several DVRs, the use of the optional EDA998

connection kit is recommended:

EKB 500 installation with several DVRs and EDA998 connection kit

For further details on keyboard connection, please refer to the EKB 500 manual. RS-485 port communication settings are configured in the RS-232/485 menu.

EDR910_1610_ma_en_rev1 00 - 17 -

2.4 Speed dome installation

Speed dome or telemetry receiver pan/tilt/zoom control is available through web browser or the optional PowerCon software if the DVR is connected to a network. Local telemetry control is provided by the optional EKB 500 keyboard.

ATTENTION: The basic RS-485 wiring rules described in chapter 2.3.1. also apply to the connection of speed domes or telemetry receivers.

Supported protocols: EverFocus, ED2200/2250, Pelco-D, Pelco-P The optional RS-485 connection kit EDA 998 is recommended for easy installation. For RS-485 port pin assignment, please refer to chapter 2.3.2.

Sample installation with 3 EPTZ1000 speed domes and EDA998

Sample installation with 3 EPTZ1000 speed dome, EDA998 and local EKB 500 operation

Required DVR settings:

RS-485 receiver address in CAMERA menu RS-485 parameters and protocol in RS232/485 menu

ATTENTION: Some Pelco-D / -P protocol domes and receivers require an address offset of -1, i.e. the address assigned to the dome / receiver in the DVR camera menu must be 1 below the address set in the dome / receiver itself!

EDR910_1610_ma_en_rev1 00 - 18 -

2.5 Alarm input / output installation

The EDR910/1610 alarm inputs can be used for recording start or recording rate adjustment. Furthermore, alarm reactions such as camera switching to monitors, buzzer, e-mail and network alarm are available. An alarm output relay can be switched if required.

EDR910 provides 9 alarm inputs, EDR1610 provides 16. All inputs are programmable NO/NC.

Inputs have to be switched through dry contacts. The relay provide a dry NO/NC contact. All settings are programmed in the ALARM menu. Use either the 25-pin Sub-D plug or the included adaptor board for connection. Pin assignment Sub-D plug Pin assignment adaptor board
