ZMX+EXP32
CONNECTIONS
Power
The ZMX+EXP32 is supplied with a 12V DC class 2 output, auto-ranging: 110/230V AC (+6%, -10%) 50Hz,
external power supply.
Do not use any other power supply
. Do not connect the power until you have read the
section,
Powering Up your ZMX+EXP32
below.
Attach a suitable 3 pin plug following the wiring instructions on the label attached to the mains lead.
Note: The manufacturer accepts no responsibility for any damage caused by the use of any other power supply.
Plug the mini power connector from the 12V DC power supply into the socket marked 12V DC on the rear of your
expander unit. Adjacent to the socket is a cable anchor. Use a small cable tie to attach the power supply cord to
the cable anchor. This helps to prevent inadvertent power disconnection which may be caused by the power
cable being pulled.
Expander cable
The expander unit and multiplexer are connected together by means of a special cable. Attach the cable and
ensure the connector screws are tightened to prevent the cable being pulled out
.
POWERING UP YOUR ZMX+EXP32
Your expander unit must be powered up before the multiplexer. This is because the multiplexer polls the expander
unit as part of its power-up sequence. After all the relevant connections have been made between the expander
unit and multiplexer, perform the following sequence:
1. Disconnect the power from your multiplexer.
2. Connect the power to your expander unit
3. Reconnect the power to your multiplexer
SETTING THE MULITPLEXER TO 32 WAY
Your multiplexer must be set to 32 way in order to gain access to various menu items for the expander unit. This
is done as follows:
1. Enter the menu system of your ZMX+CT16M4 multiplexer.
2. Use the left/right arrow keys to select
Main
.
3. Use the up/down arrow keys to select
Camera Setup
and press the enter key.
4. Use the up/dwon arrow keys to select
Camera Selection 16/32
and press enter.
5. In the
Number of Cameras
field, use the left/right arrow keys to select
32.
6. Use the up/down arrow keys to select
OK
and press enter.
NOTE: After selecting OK, the multiplexer will reset itself. Any parameters that were previously set up in
the multiplexer will be lost. The multiplexer must be powered down and back on again in order for the
new settings to take effect.
