Connecting Motion / Alarm Device - Appendix #2

Motion detection and Alarm controls are enabled through the Menu system on the Observation System. Additional motion sensor devices can be connected to the system (Motion Sensors, Door/Window Sensors).

A motion detection or sensor unit can be used to send a signal to the Observation System to begin camera viewing on the matching Video Channel (when enabled in the “Setup Menu – Event - Motion” submenu).

• Example: A Window sensor unit has been installed on Alarm Block port #4. When this sensor is activated, the camera on port #4 will become active (if enabled in the MENU on the Observation System)

Installing a Sensor

1. Connect the GROUND Cable to the GND port on the Alarm Block on the Observation System

2. Connect the SIGNAL Cable to a numbered port (1-8).

To start ALARM RECORDING on the System, refer to the “Setup Menu – Event – Alarm-In” submenu for menu configuration.

SENSOR (NOT INCLUDED)

Connecting RS-485 & RS-232 Devices - Appendix #3

PTZ Cameras (not included with this system) can be connected to the PTZ Control Block on the back panel of the System. The PTZ Controls are enabled through the Menu system on the Observation System. Additional PTZ Cameras are available at http://www.lorexcctv.com

Installing a PTZ (RS-485 Type) PTZ Camera:

1. Connect the Transmit Cable to the + port on the PTZ Control Block on the Observation System.

2. Connect the Receive Cable to the - port on the PTZ Control Block on the Observation System.

3. Connect the Camera to the desired BNC Channel (DIN Channel 1 must be empty).

4. Configure PTZ Menu options. The PTZ Camera Settings will depend on the Type of Camera - refer to the specific Camera Manual for your brand and model of PTZ Camera.

PTZ CAMERA - RS-485 CONNECTION

Installing an RS-232 Type Device:

The RS-232 port can also be used to connect an external device or control system, such as a POS (Point of Sale Cash Register) or a remote keyboard. Use the POS manufacturer’s recommended settings when configuring the RS232 ports.

1. Connect the RS-232 Device to the RS-232 Block on the Observation System.

2. Configure the appropriate Menu options. The Settings will depend on the Type of RS-232 Device - refer to the specific Device Manual for settings.

• Set the Jumper Pin Set to Master (1 Drive).

NOTE: Use an IDE Hard Drive.

Hard Drive Replacement (cont …)

Installing the New Drive

• Insert the new drive, and reattach the holding screws.

• Reconnect the cables in the same way as connected to the previous drive.

o Reconnect the IDE Cable. Confirm that the cable is connected securely connected within

the System and to the Hard Drive.

o Reconnect the Hard Drive power cable. Confirm the cable is securely connected to the

Hard Drive.

• Replace the drive holding bracket, and reattach the screws.

• Replace the drive cover on the back of the System, and reattach with the screws.

New Hard Drive Format

The New Hard Drive MUST be formatted.

NOTE: If a new HARD DRIVE is detected, the system will prompt you to FORMAT the drive. If you do not choose to format the HARD DRIVE, the drive will not be detected by the system.

If you choose to FORMAT a drive in this way, the drive will no longer be readable by a regular PC without using the HARD DRIVE VIEWER software included on the CD provided with this unit

Press ENTER to choose the OK option and proceed with the format.
