If the distance between the nearest register PB3 is
greater than 50’ (RS-232 distance limitation), an
additional PB3 can be added near the DVMRe
allowing RS-485 communication between the PB3
units. If there are more than (2) two PB3’s required
per installation, please verify proper termination.

Termination Switch

Termination is set on SW4 for PORT 0 (Dipswitch #3)

Termination is important whenever multiple PB3
units are interconnected via the unit’s built-in RS­485 network. The default termination setting on the
ProBridge 3 unit is with termination set to ON.

Whenever there are more than two PB3’s,
termination on some of the PB3 units will change. The first PB3 and the last
PB3 on the RS-485 network will have termination set to ON (Down), all
others between these two units will have their termination set to OFF (Up).

5 Detailed Installation
Steps

5.1 PB3 Physical Installation

1. Disconnect the existing Receipt Printer cable from the back of the POS
system and install the ECR Interconnect Cable (4310-0078A) to the
Receipt Printer as shown on page 11.

2. Reconnect the Receipt Printer Cable to one of the D9F connectors on
the ECR Interconnect Cable as shown
on page 11.

3. Connect the other end (DB9F) to the DB9M connector on the PB3 unit.

4. Connect the PB3 Power Supply to the unit.

If only one (1) PB3 unit (one cash register) is to be connected, skip to Step 8
below.

5. If more than one cash register interface is to be installed repeat steps 1­4 above for each additional cash register.

6. Connect each PB3 unit together by using an RS-485 cable with RJ-45
connectors on each end. Connect to either receptacle on Port 0 to
interconnect the PB3 units using an “in” and “out” method. (For details
on the RS-485 cable, review the cable specifications in Section 13).
Note: This cable shall be provided by the installer.

7. Confirm that each PB3 has the proper termination setting per the
instructions on page 12.

8. Connect all ECR cameras to their associated inputs on the DVMRe unit
(ECR#1 = Camera 1 Input, ECR#2 = Camera 2 Input….)

9. Connect the PB3 closest to the DVMRe using the supplied cable (4310-

0043B) from Port 1 (RJ45 outer receptacle) of the PB3 to the RS232/2
port on the DVMRe unit.

Kalatel CBR-PB3-WD 13 0150-0261A

5.2 Configuring the PB3 for POS Interface

1. Associating ECR data to a specific camera.

Dipswitches 5-8 on SW1 are used for assigning an
ECR’s transaction text to a specific camera.

Please refer to Section 8 for the specific dipswitch
camera assignments. The default setting is for
switches 5-8 to be all OFF (All switches Up =
Camera 1).

2. Program the DVMRe for the desired recording functions based upon
the presence of transaction text. In addition make sure the RS-232 port
on the DVMRe is configured correctly set via the DVMRe Setup Menus:

a. COMMUNICATIONS>RS-232>PORT (1 OR 2)>19200

i. Port 2 is used if DVMRe-CT/eZT/StoreSafe

ii. Port 1 is used if DVMRe-CS/CD/eZ

Transaction text is captured with video regardless of the

NOTE

recording mode (Time-Lapse, Time-Lapse + Event, or Event
Only). If Time-Lapse + Event or Event Only recording
modes must have at least one (1) second set for the pre­event duration.

3. Process several POS transactions at the Cash Register.

a. To verify proper operation with a DVMRe-CT/eZT/StoreSafe

unit:

i. Select ful l-screen on the Main Monitor (A) the camera

associated with a PB3 unit. Press the camera button
until the text box window appears in the display.

ii. The text box will display any transaction data as it is

passed to the PB3 unit from the POS device. Be
aware that some POS devices only send transaction
data until the end of the transaction (when the receipt
is printed).

Kalatel CBR-PB3-WD 14 0150-0261A

iii. If the unit fails to display transaction text, please go to

the troubleshooting section of this manual.

b. To verify proper operation using a DVMRe–CS/CD/eZ, please

refer to Section 11.

6.2 Demo (Simulated Message) Mode

This setting permits the PB3 to send a simulated ATM transaction message to
the DVMRe/Triplex. This is useful for either for troubleshooting or for
demonstrating PB3 functionality without having an ATM connected.

Kalatel CBR-PB3-WD 16 0150-0261A

As a troubleshooting tool, this element allows you to verify that the PB3 is able to
send messages and have the DVMRe correctly capture data coming from the
PB3. In this mode, if text can be received and displayed, yet when attempting to
process ECR data fails, then some other problem exists with respect to the ECR
connection (cabling) or interface setup.

To access this mode:

SW1
1 Down

7 Troubleshooting

If you are unable to verify capture of transaction text, do the following:

1. Check that each device is properly powered.

2. Check that the ECR to Camera address is correctly programmed SW1.

3. Check that all cables and cable connections are correct

4. If data is being displayed but is not intelligible, the likelihood is that the
baud rate is different than the default value for the selected register.
Check with the baud rate settings for the Receipt Printer on your POS
system.

To change the Baud Rate, the available settings are controlled via the
dipswitch settings on SW2 (dipswitches 2-4).

-CD/CS Units

If the unit to be connected to the PB3 is a DVMRe-CD (Duplex) or a DVMRe-CS
(Simplex) unit, please note the following changes to the normal installation and
configuration process below.

Kalatel recommends using a DVMRe-

NOTE

11.1 DVMRe-CS/CD Setup

Follow the installation steps in Section 5.1 through step number 8:
Connecting the PB3 to a DVMRe-CS/CD:

POS transactions. Once you have confirmed proper

operation, disconnect the Triplex unit and hook-up the
Duplex (or Simplex) unit as indicated below.
Alternatively, you can confirm configuration using a
Laptop/PC running Windows HyperTerminal.

The PB3 connects to either RS-232/1 or RS-232/2 port of the DVMRe­CD/CS depending on if a modem is installed on RS-232/1 port.

a. NO MODEM

i. ProBridge Port #1 (RJ45) connects to RS-232/1 Port of

the DVMRe-CD/CS using the supplied RJ45 to DB9F
cable.

ii. The DVMRe communications port needs to be

programmed as follows:

Communications>RS-232>Port 1 > ATM Activate

b. MODEM (Connected to RS-232/1 Port of DVMRe-CD/CS)

i. ProBridge Port #1 (RJ45) connects to RS-232/2 Port of

the DVMRe-CD/CS using a RJ45 to DB9M cable. The
provided RJ45 to DB9F cable can be used provided a

Kalatel CBR-PB3-WD 31 0150-0261A

gender changer is added to match the DB9M connector
needed for the port on the DVMRe-CD/CS.

ii. Modem must be configured for Port 1. The menu setup is:

Communications>RS-232>Port 1> POTS.

iii. The unit will have to be opened and a specific jumper

setting set to allow text insertion on RS-232/2 Port.
Contact Kalatel Tech Support for instructions on

mode (Time-Lapse, Time-Lapse+Event or Event only). If Time­Lapse+Event or Event only recording modes must have at least
one second set for the pre-event duration.

Final Testing

After hooking up the Duplex or Simplex unit, have some POS transactions
generated. Allow sufficient time (2-3 minutes) before stopping recording and
performing a text search from the DVMRe-CD/CS unit. Search for events based
upon text and place a “*” in the text field and then select “Start Search”. All
captured Cash Register transactions will be displayed in the list.

14 Warranty and Service

14.1 Factory Service

If the unit requires factory service, contact the dealer who supplied the unit to you for the
correct procedures on returning the unit to the factory or the nearest factory service center.

If the dealer is not available, contact the manufacturer of the unit as detailed below and
request a Return Material Authorization number (RMA). The unit’s serial number must be
provided before an RMA number can be issued. Units returned to the factory for service
must have freight and insurance prepaid, and must show the RMA number clearly on all
shipping documents. The failure symptoms must be clearly described by the operator and
enclosed with the unit together with a copy of the original supplier’s invoice. Failure to
comply with these instructions will delay service of the unit, and may result in the unit not
being accepted by the Repair Center.

14.2 Warranty

Kalatel warrants all of its equipment for three years from the date of purchase. This
warranty covers any defects in materials and workmanship. Equipment failures that are due
to improper installation, modification, abuse, or acts of nature will not be covered by this
warranty. The repair department will evaluate all equipment returned for repair to determine
warranty coverage. The Tech Support Manager will resolve any questions that may arise
during evaluation to make a final determination.

Note: The three-year warranty does not apply to the following products:

MobileView® and the monitor CRT, which carry a 12-month warranty from the date of
purchase.

The warranty specifically covers any defects in material and workmanship and does not
cover equipment that has been abused, damaged, or modified.

For all warranty repairs, Kalatel will cover all costs, including parts, labor, and shipping.
Repaired equipment will be returned via the same method of shipment in which it was
received. If a customer requests a faster return shipment, the difference will be charged.

Kalatel CBR-PB3-WD 36 0150-0261A

For all non-warranty repairs, the customer will be billed for parts, labor, and shipping.
Labor will be billed in half-hour increments.

Note: Customers requesting an estimate prior to repair will be notified by phone. If they
cannot be reached, they will be notified by fax. If we are unable to reach the contact person
for repair authorization after one phone attempt and two fax attempts, the equipment will be
returned without being repaired. We will hold equipment no longer than two weeks.

Advance Replacement Policy

When an advance replacement is required, we will send the customer replacement
equipment from our stock and receive the returned product in exchange. The received
equipment will be evaluated and the repair department will determine whether it is a
warranty replacement. If it is non-warranty, see our repair policy above for details. The
following guidelines will be used for all advance replacements:

• Fewer than 45 days from purchase, Kalatel will replace the product with new
equipment.

• From 45 days to 1 year from purchase, Kalatel will replace the product with
refurbished equipment.
