P- P

，

The video signal should comply with your national standards. The input video signal shall have high SNR, low distortion; low interference, natural color and suitable lightness. Guarantee the stability and reliability of the camera signal: The camera shall be installed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, inflammable, explosive substances and etc. The camera and the DVR should have the same grounding to ensure the normal operation of the camera.

Guarantee stability and reliability of the transmission lineBTTTB

Please use high quality, sound shielded BNC. Please select suitable BNC model according to the transmission distance. If the distance is too long, you should use twisted pair cable, and you can add video compensation devices or use optical fiber to ensure video quality. You should keep the video signal away from the strong electromagnetic interference, especially the high tension current.

Keep connection lugs in well contactBTTTB

The signal line and shielded wire should be fixed firmly and in well connection. Avoid dry joint, lap welding and oxidation.BTTTB

3.5.2 Connecting Video Output

Video output includes a TBNC(PAL/NTSC BNC（1.0VP- P， 75Ω）output and a VGA output. System supports BNC and VGA output at the same time. See X284H284H284HFigure 3-2X. When you are using pc-type monitor to replace the monitor, please pay attention to the following points:

 To defer aging, do not allow the pc monitor to run for a long time.  Regular demagnetization will keep device maintain proper status.  Keep it away from strong electromagnetic interference devices.

Using TV as video output device is not a reliable substitution method. You also need to reduce the working hour and control the interference from power supply and other devices. The low quality TV may result in device damage.

3.6 Connecting Audio Input & Output, Bidirectional Audio

3.6.1 Audio Input

These series products adopt BNC port. Due to high impedance of audio input, please use active sound pick-up. See Figure 3-8. Audio transmission is similar to video transmission.

Please refer to the following sheet for detailed information.

3.6.2 Audio Output

The audio output signal parameter is usually over 200mv 1KΩ (BNC). It can directly connect to low impedance earphone, active sound box or amplifier-drive audio output device. If the sound box and the pick-up cannot be separated spatially, it is easy to arouse squeaking. In this case you can adopt the following measures:

 Use better sound pick-up with better directing property.  Reduce the volume of the sound box.  Using more sound-absorbing materials in decoration can reduce voice echo and improve

acoustics environment.

 Adjust the layout to reduce happening of the squeaking.
