First-Time Installation and
Configuration
Before installing the VPort D351, check to make sure that all items in the
package checklist are present. In addition, you will need access to a notebook
computer or PC equipped with an Ethernet port.
Step 1: Select the Power Source
The VPort D351 can be powered by a 12 to 32 VDC power input, or an 18 to
30 VAC power input. Two power inputs are provided for redundancy. Users
can check the LED status located on the front panel to see if the power inputs
are connected appropriately. If one of the power inputs fails, the FAULT LED
will light up in red.
NOTE
The VPort D351 supports 12-32 VDC for a 12/24 VDC power
input, or 18-30 VAC for a 24 VAC power input. This differs from
the 12-45 VDC power input supported by Moxa’s EDS series of
Ethernet switches.
Step 2: Connect the VPort D351 to a network
The VPort D351 has an auto-sensing 10/100 Mbps RJ45 Ethernet port for
network connectivity. LEDs to indicate 10/100 Mpbs data transmission are
provided for both the RJ45 port and fiber optic ports.
Step 3: Connect the VPort D351 to an audio source (if required)
The VPort D351 supports 1
AUDIO INPUT
and 1
AUDIO OUTPUT
. A
microphone or an amplifier can be plugged directly into the
AUDIO INPUT
port; a speaker can be plugged into the
AUDIO OUTPUT
port.
Step 4: Connect the VPort D351 to a video output source
The VPort D351 supports 1
VIDIO OUTPUT
for transmitting analog video.
Connect the video output source, such as CCTV monitor or switch, to the BNC
connector to show the analog video.
Step 5: Connect the VPort D351 to a control panel or keyboard to control
the motorized PTZ Camera/Device (if required)
If a motorized PTZ camera or device is used at the VPort encoder site, users
can connect the PTZ control panel or keyboard to the VPort D351’s PTZ port
to control the motorized PTZ camera or device directly once the connection
between the VPort D351 and the VPort encoder is ready. The PTZ port uses a
5-pin terminal block for the RS-232/422/485 serial connection. The pin
assignments are shown in the following table.
