INSTALLATION
LD16 encoder is built in a 1U chassis for convenient rackmount installation.
Follow safety precautions when selecting installation location for your LD16 encoder.
1. Using supplied screws to secure the provided rack brackets to the LD16 unit, then
install your LD16 encoder into the server rack.
2. Make sure the Power Switch is in the OFF position.
3. Connect your HD-analog or CVBS analog inputs to the 16 BNC connectors on the
encoder.
4. Plug in the network cable into the LAN connector on the rear panel of the encoder
and then plug it into the Gigabit switch.
5. Connect the provided 12V power supply to the 12V DC Power Supply connector and
then plug in the supplied Power Cable into the provided power supply.
6. Plug the power cable into the power source. Use of the UPS (Uninterrupted Power
Supply) is highly recommended by i3 for added reliability and longevity of your encoder.
7. Return the Power Switch into the ON position. The encoder will power on and the
front panel LEDs turn on.

ENCODER PARTS AND DEFINITIONS
Thank you for purchasing i3 International’s LD16 16-channel encoder. Your encoder is
compatible with HD-TVI, HD-AHD, HD-CVI and CVBS analog inputs.
To pair with SRX-Pro software, purchase enough analog licenses, which can be purchased
individually or in bundles of 4.
SAFETY
When installing your LD16 encoder be sure to avoid:
• excessive heat, such as direct sunlight or heating appliances
• contaminants such as dust and smoke
• strong magnetic fields
• moisture and humidity
• areas with mechanical vibrations
• temperatures below -10°C (14°F) and above 50°C (122°F).
POWER SUPPLY
Power requirement: 110-120VAC, up to 20W.
Power adapter (12VDC/5A) included.
Ensure the supplied voltage meets the power consumption requirements of this encoder
before powering the encoder on. Incorrect voltage may cause irreparable damage to the
device and will effectively void the encoder warranty.
SERVICING
To avoid electrical shock and to preserve the product warranty, DO NOT disassemble the
encoder. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.
PACKAGE CONTENTS
Ensure that the items received match those listed on the order form and the packing
slip. In addition to this manual and a fully assembled encoder, the encoder packing box
includes:
1. 12V DC Power Supply adapter
2. Power Cable
3. Rackmount brackets (2 pcs) with screws (4 pcs).
Attach to the encoder if installing into a server rack.

CONNECTING LD16 ENCODER TO i3 SRX-PRO SERVER
SRX-Pro Server is capable of supporting up to 4 (four) LD16 encoders.
Each encoder supports up to 16 HD-analog or CVBS analog inputs, however, the number
of inputs that can be added to the SRX-Pro Server is determined by the number of
purchased licenses. When purchasing LD16 encoder, make sure to purchase enough
“Analog Channel” licenses to support all your HD-analog or CVBS cameras.
When purchasing LD16 encoders together with an i3 Server, the NVR will be equipped
with a single or dual PCI NIC card, respectively. Connect the encoders to the single or
dual PCI NIC card labeled “LD16” (not the on-board NIC) on your NVR.
When purchasing more than 2 LD16 encoders together with a single i3 Server, connect
2 encoders to the PCI NIC card labeled “LD16” and the remainder of the encoders - to
an i3-recommended Gigabit switch.
If purchasing separately from i3 NVR, connect all encoders to the switch.
