16-Channel Encoder
HR16
SAFETY
When installing your indoor HR16 encoder be sure to avoid:
•
excessive heat, such as direct sunlight or heating appliances
•
contaminants such as dust and smoke
•
strong magnetic fields
•
sources of powerful electromagnetic radiation such as radios or TV transmitters
•
moisture and humidity
•
areas with mechanical vibrations
•
fluorescent lamps or objects that reflect light
•
unstable light sources as this may cause flickering
•
temperatures below -10° Celsius or 14° Fahrenheit and above 55° Celsius or 131°
Fahrenheit.
•
For more details on installation and operation, please refer to the CD
provided.
POWER SUPPLY
HR16 Power consumption requirement: 12V DC, max 30W.
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.
PoE power is not supported.
SERVICING
To avoid electrical shock and to preserve the product warranty, DO NOT disasemble the
encoder. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.

INSTALLATION
HR16 encoder is built in a 1U chassis for convenient rackmount installation.
Follow safety precautions when selecting installation location for your HR16 encoder.
1. Using supplied screws to secure the provided rack brackets to the HR16 unit, then
install your HR16 encoder into the server rack.
2. Make sure the Power Switch is in the OFF position.
3. Connect your HD-TVI or regular analog inputs to the 16 BNC connectors on the
encoder.
Note, that i3 HD-TVI cameras will have two coaxial cables: 720x480 (D1 quality)
and 1MP/2MP (720P/1080P quality). Make sure you connect the coaxial cable that
transmit your desired video quality.
4. Connect your video inputs’ PTZ signal cables (where applicable) to RS-485 block
on the rear panel of the encoder. Using a pointed object, press and hold the orange
toggle portion of the
D+ and D- RS-485
terminals and insert
the correct PTZ
signal cables into the
slots below. Release
the orange toggle to
secure the cables
in place. Ensure a
secure and tight
cable connection.
5. Connect your Audio IN and OUT devices, if using to the corresponding RCA
connectors on the rear panel.
6. Plug in the network cable into the LAN connector on the rear panel of the encoder
and then plug it into the Gigabit switch.
7. 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.
8. 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.
9. Return the Power Switch into the ON position. The encoder will power on and the
front panel LEDs turn on.

CONNECTING HR16 ENCODER TO i3 SRX-PRO SERVER
SRX-Pro Server is capable of supporting up to 2 (two) HR16 encoders.
Each encoder supports up to 16 analog or HD-TVI 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 HR16 encoder, make sure to purchase enough “Analog
Channel” licenses to support all your HD-TVI and analog cameras.
When purchasing HR16 encoder(s) with the DVMS, connect your HR16 to the dedicated
NIC port(s) on your SRX-Pro Server through a provided CAT5 network cable.
When purchasing HR16 encoder(s) separately from the DVMS, connect your HR16 to an
i3-recommended Gigabit switch.
