First-Time Installation and Configuration

Before installing the VPort 461A, check to make sure that all items in the
package checklist are in the box. In addition, you will need access to a
notebook computer or PC equipped with an Ethernet port.

Step 1: Select the Power Source

The VPort 461A can be powered by a DC power input from 12 to 32 VDC,
or an AC power input from 18 to 30 VAC. Two power inputs are provided
for redundancy. Users can check the LED status located on the front panel
to see if the power inputs are correctly connected. If one of the power
inputs fails, the FAULT LED will light up red, providing the power failure
alarm is enabled.

NOTE

The VPort 461A series supports power input specifications of
12

-32 VDC for 12/24 VDC power input, or 18-

30 VAC for 24 VAC

power input.

Step 2: Connect the VPort 461A to a Network

The VPort 461A has two auto-sensing 10/100 Mbps RJ45 Ethernet ports
for network connectivity. Each has a LED indicator for indicating the 10
Mbps or 100 Mbps Ethernet connections.

NOTE

These two Ethernet ports can be cascaded in daisy chain link, or
connected to two different switch ports for Ethernet port
redundancy.

In addition, they also act as an Ethernet switch,

which means one port could be reserved

for original use, while

the second port could be an extension port for another purpose
such as linking to the other VPort.

Step 3: Connect the VPort 461A to cameras and an audio source

The VPort 461A has 1 VIDEO INPUT port. Use the BNC connector (1.0 Vpp,

75Ω) and coaxial cable to connect video cameras to the VPort to input

analog video signals.

The VPort 461A has one audio input and one audio output. A microphone
(with built-in amplifier) or an amplifier can be plugged directly into the
AUDIO INPUT port, and a speaker can be plugged into the AUDIO OUTPUT
port.

NOTE

One VIDEO LED is located on the VPort 461A’s front panel to
indicate the video signal transmission status for video input.
Check the LED status to see if the video is working properly.

ATTENTION

A ground loop isolator is recommended to be used between the
camera and the VPort to avoid a sudden current, which is
generated by the electric potential difference between these two
device’s ground power, to burn out the VPort’s chips and boards.

- 6 -

Step 4: Connecting motorized PTZ cameras and serial devices

The VPort 461A has two RS-232/422/485 ports. One is a COM PORT with
DB9 male connector, and the other is a PTZ PORT with 5-pin terminal
block connector. Both ports can be used for connecting PTZ control cables
for controlling PTZ cameras over the TCP/IP network.

In addition, the DB9 male COM PORT can also be used to connect general
serial devices, such as card readers, for transmitting serial data over a
TCP/IP network. This port can be used to connect serial devices to the
VPort 461A instead of a video camera.

To enable PTZ control, users should configure the PTZ control protocol in
the web-based manager.

NOTE

The PTZ control protocol is not standardized. To use a particular
PTZ control protocol, the video server must support the driver for
that protocol. Currently, the

VPort 461A supports PTZ control

protocol drivers for:

1. Pelco D

2. Pelco P

If you need to use a protocol that is not on the list, contact the
manufacturer of the camera to get the PTZ control commands,
and then program its PTZ control using the

VPort 461A’s

Custom

Camera function.

NOTE

The VPort 461A comes with a PTZ driver upload function for
implementing new PTZ drivers. Please contact a Moxa sales
representative if you need assistance from Moxa’s R&D
department to create a new PTZ driver.

NOTE

The “Transparent PTZ Control” function in the camera driver list is
used to transmit the PTZ control signal over a TCP/IP network to
the VPort video decoder or PC (additional driver required). The
PTZ control panel or keyboard can directly control the PTZ
camera or device, eliminating the need for a PTZ camera driver
and allowing

the use of PTZ cameras with the VPort encoder.

The

transparent

PTZ control function will be supported after the

V1.1

firmware version is released.

Step 5: Configure the VPort 461A’s IP address

After powering on the VPort 461A, wait a few seconds for the POST
(Power On Self Test) to run. The STAT LED turns green to indicate that the
POST process has been completed. The IP address will be assigned when
the 10/100 Mbps NETWORK LED blinks. The IP address assigned after the
POST is completed depends on the network environment.

Network Environment with DHCP Server

In this case, the IP address of the VPort 461A is assigned by a DHCP
Server. Use the DHCP Server’s IP address table, or use the Moxa VPort
utility to determine the IP address that was assigned by the DHCP Server.

NOTE

After powering on the VPort 461A, wait a few seconds for the
POST (Power On Self Test) to run. The IP address will be assigned
when the 10/100 Mbps NETWORK LED blinks.

- 7 -

Using the Moxa VPort and EtherDevice Configurator Utility
(edscfgui.exe)

1. Run the edscfgui.exe program to search for the VPort and EDS
switches. After the Utility window opens, select or click on Broadcast
Search, which is located under the List Server menu, to initiate a

search (note that you can also click on the Broadcast Search

icon to initiate a search).

NOTE

You may download the VPort and EtherDevice Configurator
software from Moxa’s website at www.moxa.com.

2. The Broadcast Search window will show a list of all switches and
VPorts located on the network. The progress of the search will also
be indicated.

- 8 -

3. When the search has ended, the Model Name, MAC address, and IP
address of the EDS switches and VPorts will be listed in the Utility
window.

NOTE

Broadcast Search can only search for devices connected to the
same LAN subnet as the VPort. If your devices are located on a
different LAN subnet, use the “Specify IP Address” function to
search for the device by keying in the IP address.

4. Double click the selected VPort, or use Internet Explorer to access
the VPort’s web-based manager (web console).

Network Environment without a DHCP Server

If your VPort is connected to a network that does not have a DHCP server,
then you will need to configure the IP address manually. The default IP
address of the VPort 461A is 192.168.127.100 and the default subnet
mask is 255.255.255.0. Note that you may need to change your
computer’s IP address and subnet mask so that the computer is on the
same subnet as the VPort.

To change the IP address of the VPort manually, access the VPort’s web
server, and then navigate to the System Configuration



Network 

General page to configure the IP address and other network settings.

Select the Use fixed IP address checkbox to ensure that the IP address
you assign is not deleted each time the VPort is restarted.

Step 6: Log on to the VPort 461A web-based manager

Type the IP address in the web browser’s address input box and then
press enter.

Step 7: Install the ActiveX Control Plug-in

A security warning message will appear the first time you access the
VPort’s web-based manager. The message is related to installing the
VPort ActiveX Control component to your PC or notebook. Click on Yes to
install this plug-in to enable the ability to view video in the IE web
browser.

NOTE

For Windows XP SP2 or later operating systems, the ActiveX
Control component will be blocked for system security reasons.
In this case, the VPort’s security warning message window may
not appear. Users should unblock the ActiveX control function or
disable the security configuration to enable the installation of
VPort’s ActiveX Control component.

Step 8: Accessing the homepage of the VPort 461A’s web-based
manager

After installing the ActiveX Control component, the homepage of the
VPort 461A’s web-based manager will appear. Check the following items
to make sure the system was installed properly:

1. Video Images.

2. Audio Sound (make sure your PC’s or notebook’s sound is turned
on).

3. Video Information.

Step 9: Accessing the VPort’s System Configuration

Click on System Configuration to access the overview of the system
configuration to change the configuration. Model Name, Server Name, IP

Wiring Requirements

WARNING

Safety First!

Be sure to disconnect the power cord before installing and/or
wiring your Moxa

VPort 461A.

Calculate the maximum possible current in each power wire and
common wire. Observe all e

lectrical codes dictating the

maximum allowable current for each wire size.

If the current goes above the maximum ratings, the wiring could
overheat, causing serious damage to your equipment.

You should also pay attention to the following items:

• Use separate paths to route wiring for power and devices. If power
wiring and device wiring paths must cross, make sure the wires are
perpendicular at the intersection point.
NOTE: Do not run signal or communications wiring and power wiring
in the same wire conduit. To avoid interference, wires with different
signal characteristics should be routed separately.

• You can use the type of signal transmitted through a wire to
determine which wires should be kept separate. The rule of thumb is
that wiring that shares similar electrical characteristics can be
bundled together.

• Keep input wiring and output wiring separate.

• It is strongly advised that you label wiring to all devices in the system.

- 13 -

Grounding the Moxa VPort 461A

Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects of noise due to

factory default settings. When the system fails to install properly, or
operates abnormally, use the RESET button located on the top panel of
the VPort 461A to restore the factory defaults.

To do this, use a pointed object such as a straightened paper clip or a
toothpick, to depress the reset button continuously for about 90 seconds.
Release the reset button when the STAT LED has finished the following
sequence twice: light-on  light-off  solid-red  red-flash  light-off.
At this point, the POST process will run, and the VPort will reboot. The
STAT LED will turn to green when the VPort has finished rebooting.
