System Connections
MCC201 operates as one of two modes; as Encoder or Decoder. MCC201 systems can be connected in either 1-to-1 fashion where one encoder is connected one decoder or 1-to-m any fashion where one encoder connected to many decoders.
Following chart shows data status of video, audio and serial data on each mode.
System Mode Video Audio Serial Data
Encoder Transmit Transmit/Receive Transmit/Receive Decoder Receive Transmit/Receive Transmit/Receive
Therefore, the system modes are defined by the video comm unication and all system m odes are capable of bi-directional transmission of audio or serial data.
Topology
Generally, the encoder and a decoder are connected in 1-to-1 mode. To support specific situation, 1-to-multiple connection is also supported.
1:1 Connection (Unidirectional Transmission).
Remote Center
Encoder Decoder
The most commonly used configuration is 1 to 1 connection. An encoder is installed at a site where video images can be transmitted and a decoder is installed at a center location to receive and view the video images on monitors. Audio and serial data are transferred in either direction.
A decoder and encoder can be connected by setting the encoder’s address at the decoder’s remote IP.

In this configuration, a site can be monitored from many remote center locatio ns . Maximum connections would be limited by the network bandwidth.
Functionally, the VMS (Video Management System) software can replace the decoder.
Multicast Mode
In the network support ing multicast mode, if Multicast is setup as a system protocol, you can use bandwidth efficiently regardless of the number of dec oders. In 1:N conn ection, a large number of decoders can receive audio and video data from an encoder by using a single streaming transmission.
Relaying
IP-
In this arrangement, video and audio ca n be retransmitte d from a center to ano ther center. The arrangement is useful when the network bandwidth at the site is limited while there is m ore than one center wanting to monitor the site.

2. Installation
Connecting Video
Connecting with Megapixel Camera
Connect a camera which supports HDMI or HD-SDI output to the HDMI or HD-SDI Input port of video encoder accordingly. (Note! HD-SDI not available on MCC201H)
Connecting with Analogue Camera
Connect a camera to the encoder BNC video Input port.
Decoder System
Connect a monitor to HDMI or COMPOSITE (BNC) output of the decoder.
Connecting Audio
Audio is full-duplex. It is possible to set the mode as Tx-only, Rx-only or Tx-Rx.
Connect audio input and output ports to audio devices accordingly. The Audio signal required is line level, so audio equipment with an amp, mixer or
other amplifier should be used.
Connecting Serial Ports
For camera control, PTZ controller (keyboard) and receiver can be connected to serial ports. Two corresponding seria l ports in encoder and decoder which are con nected in con nected i n 1-to-1 fashion wor ks in pass-through mode. This means that commands at a local system’s COM1 port will be transparently passed to the remote s ystem’s COM1 port. Also, a com mand at a local system COM2 port will pass to the remote system’s COM2 port.
Connecting Sensor and Alarm
Connect sensor and alarm devices to corresponding terminals accordingly.
Connecting Power
After confirming the power source, connect power adaptor and connect the 12VDC connector to the system.

3. System Operation
Remote Video Monitoring
There are two ways to monitor video when the center system and MCC201 are connected. In order for a proper operation, an IP address must be set accordingly.
Default IP Address : http://192.168.10.100
Default ID : admin Default Password : 1234
Video Monitoring with Decoder System
Once the encoder I P address is s et in the rem ote IP address section of the decoder, the decoder s ystem will connect to the encoder s ystem and start receiving the video images. Norm ally, a monitor connected to the decoder will display video images.

Video Monitoring using Internet Explorer
When the MMC201 or MCC201H is managed by a Windows Explorer browse r, shortly after logging th e OS will ask permis sion to i nstall an Acti ve-X c om ponent (p ublis her is Teleste Corporation) to the user ´s c om puter. This plug-in component is needed in order to acti vate the Live View software video dec oder as sho wn below. Should you not accept the activation the video is not available within the browser. However, the further configuration of the device is not prohibited and all other device settings are available in a normal fashion.

The more the camera zooms in, the smaller the square of control panel is. Position of the image can be changed by moving position of the square.
If you press x1, the screen will return to the normal size.
PTZ Control (Optical Zoom & Digital zoom built-in the camera)
Control PTZ and PTZ Control Panel is used for controlling external PTZ devices when the external PTZ devices are connec ted throu gh s er ial port.
It is possible to make zooming control by Zoom in/out buttons of PTZ control Panel (In order to use digital zoom, select Digital zoom ON in the Camera tab)
- Stop Stop on-going PTZ action.
- Focus Near, Focus Far, Auto Focus Adjust the focus of the lens.
Select Preset
Set preset position and move to the specific preset position.
- Goto: Move to the selected preset entry if the preset entry is set.
- Set: Set the current position to the selected preset entry.
- Clear: Delete the selected preset entry.
Sensor Input
Display the status of the sensor in real time. This camera supports one sensor input. When the sensor of the camera is working, the sensor light
turns red.
