Installation
Installation environment
When installing your product, consider these factors:
• Ventilation
• Temperature
• Moisture
• Chassis load
Ventilation: Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions. Ensure that the location planned for the installation of the unit is well ventilated.
Temperature: Consider the unit’s operating temperature (0 to 40°C, 32 to 104°F)
and noncondensing humidity specifications (10 to 90%) before choosing an installation location. Extremes of heat or cold beyond the specified operating temperature limits may reduce the life expectancy of the TruVision DVR 60. Do not install the unit on top of other hot equipment. Leave 44 mm (1.75 in.) of space between rack-mounted TruVision DVR 60 units.
Moisture: Do not use the unit near water. Moisture can damage the internal
components. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this unit to rain or moisture.
Chassis: Equipment weighing less than 15.9 kg (35 lb.) may be placed on top of
the unit.
Unpacking the TVR 60 and its accessories
When you receive the product, check the package and contents for damage, and verify that all items are included. There is an item list included in the package. If any of the items are damaged or missing, please contact your local supplier.

PTZ dome camera set up
Use the USB mouse provided or the optional keypad for local telemetry control. If using the TVR 60 over a network, use the web browser to control the PTZ dome cameras or TruVision Navigator.
See Appendix C “PTZ protocols” on page 135 for the supported protocols.
Each PTZ camera must be set up individually. For information on configuring PTZ dome camera settings, see Chapter 7 “Controlling a PTZ dome camera” on page 47.
Connecting a TVR 60 to a PTZ dome camera and a keypad
Use the input/output box that is supplied with the keypad to connect a keypad to the TVR 60. The keypad can be connected to a PTZ camera for local control or for control over the network.
See Figure 2 on page 9 for the preferred setup. Any PTZ dome camera can be controlled as the DVR is doing the PTZ protocol translation. However, this setup provides only limited dome configuration.

Wiring the keypad
The keypad uses RS-485 simplex wiring. The signal is transferred by a single twisted pair line. A shielded STP CAT5 network cable is recommended. Ground one end of the cable, either the first or last device on the RS-485 line.
The maximum number of devices that can be installed in one bus is 255, with a maximum cable length of 1200 m. The cable length can be expanded using a signal distributor.
Both the first and the last device in series should be terminated with 120 Ohm resistance to minimize line reflections. See Figure 3 on page 13.

Use an RS-485/KTD-83 signal distributor to increase the maximum number of
devices on the bus as well as the total range. Each distributor output provides another RS-485 bus, extending the output an additional 1200 m. Up to 31
TVR 60s can be connected to each output. See Figure 5 below.

Caution: Most signal distributors are unidirectional. This means that the signal
only flows from the input towards the outputs. Consequently it is not possible to connect several keypads.
See section “RS-485 ports” below to configure the RS-485 port communication settings.
RS-485 ports
There are two RS-485 ports on the rear panel of the TVR 60. See Figure 6 on page 15 for the serial pin outs.

RS-232 port
The RS-232 port will be available for future use to connect CBR-PB3-POS (point­of-sale) and ATM devices to the TVR 60.
Monitor connections
Connect the unit to the monitors via 75-ohm video coaxial cables with BNC connectors. The unit provides a 1 Vpp CVBS signal. See Figure 1 on page 7 for connecting a monitor to a TVR 60.
The TVR 60 supports up to 1280 × 1024 / 60 Hz resolution in VGA. The monitor resolution should be at least 800 × 600. Adjust your monitor accordingly to this resolution.
Loop through
You can loop through the analog cameras to equipment such as a matrix, monitors or a second DVR. There are 16 numbered loop-through BNC outputs. See Figure 1 on page 7.
Audio inputs and output
The unit is equipped with 16 audio inputs and two audio outputs. Both the audio output and the audio inputs are line-level. Each 16 audio input is associated with one of the 16 cameras.
Audio input RCA jack, 315 mV, 40k Ohms. Unbalanced
Audio output RCA jack, 315mV, 600 Ohms. Unbalanced
Note: Line-level audio requires amplification.

Brackets
The DVR is easily rack-mountable with the purchase of the TVR-RK-1 rack­mount kit. See Figure 7 below. Contact your local supplier to order it.
Figure 7: Rack mount installation
Attach small front rack ears to the unit (screws supplied)
Attach DVR to front rails (screws not included)
To install the racks:
1. Attach the two small front-rack mount ears to the DVR (screws supplied).
2. Attach the two large rear support brackets (not supplied) to the rear rails.
3. Attach the DVR to the front rails (screws not supplied).
Caution:
Do not rack mount the TVR 60 without the rear rails installed. Failure to install the rear rails can damage the DVR.
Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly,
the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (40°C) specified by the manufacturer.
Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the
amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that
a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
1BChapter 2: Installation
TruVision DVR 60 User Manual 17
Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the
equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be
maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).
