Encoder User Manual
1 Overview
1.1 Introduction
This manual covers the KBC MPEG4 Encoder video server. KBC Networks’ network encoders are high performance video servers which support constant simplex video streaming, bi-directional RS-422/485/232 data, stereo audio and digital input/output contact closure. They are designed for use in a wide range of operating temperatures in environmentally conditioned/enclosed indoor or outdoor applications. The KBC Encoder has been specifically designed to convert constant streaming composite video, as well as other analog signal types, to Ethernet format in order to connect to an existing network, fiber media converter or wireless Ethernet system such as the KBC WESII series. This manual covers all features and operations of the encoder. The operations of the KBC Decoder are found within its own operations manual.

White indicates the position of the switch
2.2.3 RS Protocol Dip Switch Selection
2.2.3.1 RS-422 / 485
The default configuration is set for RS-422 / 485. In the diagram below, white represents the switch. The first four dip switches ON (in the up position) with the last four OFF will set the encoder for RS-422 or 485 protocol.
Note: The dip switches will not determine the Baud Rate. The Baud Rate must be
configured to match the decoder, camera and PTZ system.
2.2.3.2 RS-232
The reverse dip switch positions (i.e, first four OFF and second four ON) will change the encoder into RS-232 mode.
2.2.4 Status LED Description
The KBC Encoder offers status LEDs for the power and data as well as on the LAN port for link status and activity.
2.2.4.1 Data TX/RX LEDs
1. Power LED. Allow 30 seconds after power up to illuminate steady.
2. Data RX. LED should remain OFF on standard activity. Will flash to
indicate that the camera is sending communication to the encoder.
3. Data TX. LED should remain OFF unless PTZ control signals are being sent from the decoder (Transmitted to the camera).
Note: A solid RX LED indicates a data wiring, or other data related error. If the LED
will not turn OFF, contact KBC for further details and/or return authorization for repair.
2.2.4.2 LAN / WAN Port
4. Link Status. On/Off
5. Port Activity. Will flash rapidly when streaming video.
Note: If the LAN port LEDs do not light up, check Ethernet cable or connected
Ethernet device.
2.2.5 Composite Video Connection
Make all Video In coaxial connections prior to powering up the encoder. If the video input is connected after power is applied to the encoder, the unit will require a power

reset in order to stream video to a connected decoder and/or via the encoder GUI video display.
The Video Out Composite BNC is an analog video loop through from the Video In BNC. This provides an option to test the video out from a camera without disconnecting the encoder and requiring a power reset to the encoder. Viewing video from the Video Out BNC will not identify whether the encoder is actually encoding the video, however, the encoder must be powered up to view the video from the Video Out composite BNC. A video cable can be connected from the Video Out BNC to a monitor after the encoder has been powered up without requiring a power reset.
Note: If the connected camera loses power but the encoder does not, the encoder
must be power reset once the camera is back online.
2.2.6 Data Protocol Dip Switch Selection & PTZ Wiring Schemes
The following PTZ data schemes have been tested by KBC. Other wiring combinations are possible depending on the PTZ system manufacturer.
Note: A solid RX light indicates an improper data wiring connection. If one of the
following schemes results in a solid RX LED, check the protocol dip switch selection and/or use a varying wiring combination if your PTZ system requires a different wiring solution.
2.2.6.1 RS-422/485, 2-wires
(Use default RS-422/485 dip switch selection) From encoder: TX+ to camera: RX+ (or “A”) From encoder: TX- to camera: RX- (or “B”)
2.2.6.2 RS-422, 4-wires
(Use default RS-422/485 dip switch selection) From encoder: TX+ to camera: TX+ From encoder: TX- to camera: TX- From encoder: RX+ to camera: RX+ From encoder: RX- to camera: RX-
2.2.6.3 RS-232
(Use RS-232 dip switch selection) From encoder: TX+ to camera: Transmit From encoder: RX+ to camera: Receive From encoder: GND to camera: Ground
2.2.6.4 Known Incompatible Protocols
The following data protocols are not supported by the KBC encoder/decoder:
Sensornet Biphase & Bilinx, other Bosch proprietary protocols Kalatel protocols using RS-422. The system is compatible in RS-485 at 9600
Baud Rate
Coaxitron or any “up the coax” PTZ control systems
2.2.7 Bi-Directional Audio Parameters
2.2.7.1 Needed Audio Equipment
The mic/speaker audio in/out jack must be connected via stereo cable. The audio source for Audio In must be amplified; the encoder does not
provide amplification on the audio.

2.3.1.2 Factory Defaults
When the reset button on the face of the unit is pressed, or a reset is performed form the product interface, the parameters of the encoder will become (differences from manual settings in italics):
2.3.2 Bench Test Set Up
KBC Networks recommends that all equipment be bench tested before being installed on site. One crossover Ethernet cable is required.
1. Remove the encoder and/or decoder from box. The encoder IP address is factory
set to 192.168.1.100, the decoder IP address is factory set to 192.168.1.101 unless otherwise noted on provided documentation. The IP addresses do not need to be changed for the units to operate individually or as a system. If you will be using multiple encoder and decoder in a system, please see the advanced operation section of this manual for setup. The encoder and decoder operate as a pair and the IP addresses have been set accordingly.
2. Mount the encoder at the desired location. The encoder is not weatherproof and
will need to be mounted in a suitable environmental enclosure if used outside or in a harsh environment. If the encoder is part of the Encoder/Decoder Kit (EDKT­A-W), the included KBC housing is suitable for outdoor and/or harsh environments provided the minimum and maximum temperature specifications of the encooder are not exceeded.
3. Connect the analog video cable from the analog video source to the VIDEO-IN
port. If the system requires data transmission (pan/tilt/zoom or other RS485/422/232 data) connect the wires from the data device the RS485/422/232 Tx+, Tx-, Rx+ & Rx- ports. If the system requires alarm communication and/or audio, connect alarm device wires to the Digital Input (DI) ports and mic/speakers to in/out ports.
4. Connect the LAN/WAN port of the encoder to the wired or wireless network. The
green LED on the front on the encoder will illuminate if the encoder is connected
