Connecting to Video and Audio Input and Output
4.2.1 Video Input
The video input interface is BNC. The input video format includes: PAL/NTSC BNC (1.0V
P-P
,
75Ω).
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 the conditions such as direct
sunlight, inflammable, and explosive substances.
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 line
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 contact
The signal line and shielded wire should be fixed firmly and in well connection. Avoid dry joint,
lap welding, and oxidation.
4.2.2 Video Output
Video output includes a BNC (PAL/NTSC1.0V
P-P
, 75Ω) output, a VGA output, and HDMI output.
System supports BNC, VGA and HDMI output at the same time.
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.
