IP Series Codec
Installation and Operating Instructions
CAMERA CONNECTIONS (ENCODER ONLY)
Analogue Camera Connection
Analogue cameras are connected to an IP Codec that is configured to function as an Encoder. Up to four analogue
cameras can be connected to each channel of an IP Codec as shown below. Note that only one camera can be viewed at
any one time i.e. the unit does not provide multiplexing functionality.
Pan/Tilt/Zoom Camera Connection
A camera equipped with a pan/tilt/zoom head may be connected to the IP Codec (configured as an Encoder) as shown
below. The video output from the camera is always connected to the number one video input (VID IN 1). Telemetry signals
for the PTZ head are passed by an IP Receiver via the 9 way Data input/output connector on the rear of the encoder. A
single PTZ camera/receiver may be connected to each channel of an IP Codec. The remaining video inputs can be used for
other video sources.
Dome Camera Connection
Dome cameras are connected to an IP Codec configured to function as an Encoder as shown below. The video output from
the camera is always connected to the number one video input (VID IN 1). Refer to the dome cameras instructions for the
control data connection details. A single dome camera may be connected to each channel of an IP Codec.
