Chapter I General Description
1.1 Description
Infinova V2015A matrix video switching system, featuring scalable
modular architecture as well as Ethernet network control capability
(V2015AN), provides a highly reliable and cost-effective solution
for any small to medium-scale security/surveillance application.
z
Flexible Design & Ethernet Compatibility
V2015A boasts a high-density modular architecture that facilitates
system customizing and expansion. V2015A can be customized to
provide up to 80 video inputs by 16 video outputs. Selectable
control code module provides direct control over Manchester or
RS-485 site receivers or dome cameras.
z
Easy Operation & Powerful Programming
Utilizing the latest advancements of ARM9 microprocessor and
based on the LINUX operation system, V2015A can provide
automated electronic surveillance that allows even a single user to
control an entire CCTV system. A maximum of 80 video inputs and
16 video outputs can be controlled from any one of up to 20
keyboards, 254 network keyboards, PCs, or other devices.
V2015A provides powerful menu-driven programming, featuring 64
user-defined system tours, 64 salvos, 35 event timers, and 5 alarm
display modes and 3 clearance methods. Optional character
information (e.g., date, time, video input number, video output title
and monitor status) can also be programmed to aid site surveillance
and system operation.
Available Windows-based system setup software can greatly
simplify the initial setup procedure and ongoing system parameter
maintenance. V2015A communicates with controllers or PCs via
either RS-232 data or TCP/IP protocols. Optional GUI software
(V2000 or V2210) can further simplify system operation and
programming by integrating all functions in an intuitive Windows
application. Third-party applications written in ASCII codes can
also be accepted by the system.
z
System Security
V2015A enhances its system security with two approaches: System
Partitioning and User Priority. System Partitioning is used to control
keyboard access to monitors, cameras, pan/tilts, and alarms. Five
programmable access controls are provided for partitioning
management in the V2015A matrix switching system.
Through the use of User Priority, system administrators can define a
total of 64 users, each with its own password and priority level.
z
Continuous Performance
V2015A is designed for continuous operation. There will be no need
for any inner maintenance once the installation is finished. System
programming, either via keyboard or GUI software, is non-invasive
and does not require rebooting or power cycling for storage and/or
execution of programmed settings.
All communication ports accept the appropriate standard
low-voltage interface such as RS-232, high speed data line or
Manchester Code. No connection or disconnection of video or data
will require rebooting or power cycling.
z
Easy Installation and Maintenance
Run and alarm status indicators are located on the V2015A front
panel to provide easy installation, maintenance and trouble-
shooting.
V2015A is designed for EIA 19" (48.26cm) rack-mounting
(recommended) as well as desktop-mounting.

1.3 Models
V2015A-XX×ZZ: Pre-configured video matrix switching system,
English, NTSC
V2015AX-XX×ZZ-: Pre-configured video matrix switching system,
English, PAL
XX×Z specifies the number of video inputs and outputs. For
example, V2015A-80×16 refers to pre-configured video matrix
switching system with 80 video inputs and 16 video outputs.
Note: V2015A series matrixes are applicable to NTSC system, Of
which, suffix “X” added behind V2015A means it is applicable to
PAL system, such as V2015AX-80×16
Please note that this manual is applicable to all above-mentioned
V2015A models
