3. System Connections
NCAM-531BIR IP Cameras can be connected in either 1 to 1 connection where one NCAM-531BIR is
connected one PC client or a decoder system or 1 to many connections where one NCAM-531BIR can be
connected several PCs and decoder systems.
Topology
Generally, NCAM-531BIR and PC or a decoder is connected in 1-to-1 mode or 1-to many configuration.
1:1 Connection .
One NCAM-531BIR is installed at a site where video images are transmitted. A PC or a decoder is
installed at a central location to receive and view the video images on an analog monitor. Audio and
serial data are transferred in either direction.

or
or
or
1:N Connection .
In this configuration, a site can be monitored from many remote central locations. Although up to 64 PCs
or decoders can be connected to one NCAM-531BIR, in the real network environment, network
bandwidth can limit the maximum connections. Functionally, the central monitoring system (CMS)
software provided can replace the decoder.
Multicast Mode
If the network supports multicasting, a large number of decoders can be used to receive video effectively
from a NCAM-531BIR using a single streaming of video and audio. However, multicast mode is possible
only when network environment supports multicast.
Relay
Video and audio data can be retransmitted from a center to another center. The arrangement is useful
when the network bandwidth to the site is limited while there are more than one center want to monitor
the site.

2. Installation
Connecting Power
1. Carefully check the voltage and current capacity of the rated power.
2. After confirming the power source, connect power adaptor and connect the 12V DC connector to
the system
Connecting Network
1. Plug network cable to Ethernet port (RJ-45 network port).
Connecting Video
1. To display video through the composite video output, connect to a monitor using BNC coaxial
cable
2. Set Enable Preview option “ON” on the Video tab of web page.
(Please refer to the Video Configuration part)
In case that video transmission distance is long, video data may not be transmitted due to a
reduction in the video signal. In order to prevent it, install a repeater in the middle.
Connecting Audio
Audio is full-duplex. It is possible to set the mode as Tx-only, Rx-only or Tx-Rx.
1. Connect audio input and output ports to audio devices accordingly.
2. The Audio signal required is line level, so an audio equipment with an amp, mixer or other amplifier
should be used.
Connecting Sensor and Alarm
Connect sensor and alarm devices to corresponding terminals accordingly.
