ENCODER PARTS AND DEFINITIONS
Thank you for purchasing i3 International’s HR16v2 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 HR16v2 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 55°C (131°F).
POWER SUPPLY
HR16v2 power consumption requirement: 100 to 240 VAC, 50-60Hz, 1A, max 25W.
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. Rackmount brackets (2 pcs)
2. Round-head screw, black (6 pcs). Use with the rackmount brackets.
3. 12V DC Power Supply adapter
4. Power Cable
5. CAT5 Network cable. Connect HR16v2 to the Gigabit switch or directly to SRX-Pro
Server.

INSTALLATION
HR16v2 encoder is built in a 1U chassis for convenient rackmount installation.
Follow safety precautions when selecting installation location for your HR16v2 encoder.
1. Using supplied screws to secure the provided rack brackets to the HR16v2 unit,
then install your HR16v2 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. 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. Plug in the
network cable into the LAN connector on the rear panel of the encoder and then
plug it into the Gigabit switch.
6. 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.
7. 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.
8. Return the Power Switch into the ON position. The encoder will power on and the
front panel LEDs turn on.
CONNECTING HR16v2 ENCODER TO i3 SRX-PRO SERVER
SRX-Pro Server is capable of supporting up to 4 (four) HR16v2 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 HR16v2 encoder, make sure to purchase enough
“Analog Channel” licenses to support all your HD-analog or CVBS cameras.
When purchasing HR16v2 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 “HR16” (not the on-board NIC) on your NVR.
When purchasing more than 2 HR16v2 encoders together with a single i3 Server,
connect 2 encoders to the PCI NIC card labeled “HR16” and the remainder of the
encoders - to an i3-recommended Gigabit switch.
If purchasing separately from i3 NVR, connect all encoders to the switch.
