INSTALLING XMUX (DVXi XM16 and DVXi XM32 ONLY)
XMUX is a 16- or 32-input digital video multiplexer. When used with DVXi XM16
or DVXi XM32, XMUX delivers 60 unique images of video every second to the
DVXi system, which digitizes and stores the images.
To install XMUX, complete the following steps using Figure 5 as a guide:
1.
Make sure the 25-pin connector of the XMUX Cable (F) is connected to
the DB-25 connector on the DVXi box, as described in the DVXi XM16
and DVXi XM32 installation instructions.
2.
Connect your cameras to the video input connectors (A).
3.
DVXi XM16 systems only:
Connect the camera loop-through outputs
(B) to television monitors, VCRs, or other analog devices, if desired.
Output 1 loops video from input 1, output 2 from input 2, and so on.
4.
Connect Aux1–Aux4 (C) to television monitors, VCRs, or other analog
devices, if desired.
5.
(Optional) Wire any alarm triggers into the input portion of the trigger
block (D). Connect the signal ground to the GND pin. Wire an alarm
signal to the output portion of the trigger block (NO, C, and NC) so that
you can see when a designated alarm is set or tripped.
6.
Connect the 15-pin connector of the XMUX Cable (G) to Comm In (E).
XMUX is powered by the DVXi system; there is no power switch on XMUX.
