    Overview The VPort 364 is a 4-channel industrial video encoder that supports the H.264 video compression algorithm, which provides the best video quality on the market while requiring less bandwidth compared to other video compression standards. In addition, the VPort 364 supports simultaneous dual video streams with different formats: H.264 and MJPEG.
  • Page 3 8 output video streams and 8 client connections • 50 multicast clients for receiving multicast video streams • Multicast push for all the clients • Video quality in CBR (constant bit rate) or VBR (variable bit rate) • Supports one RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 5-pin PTZ port for controlling •...

    FAULT LED will light up in red if the power failure alarm is enabled. NOTE The VPort 364 series supports power input specifications of 12-32 VDC for 12/24 VDC power input, or 18-30 VAC for 24 VAC power input (note that this is different from Moxa EDS switch’s 12-45...
  • Page 6 NOTE The PTZ control protocol is not standardized. To use a particular PTZ control protocol, the video server must support the driver for that protocol. Currently, the VPort 364 supports PTZ control protocol drivers for: 1. Pelco D 2. Pelco P 3.

When the search has ended, the Model Name, MAC address, and IP address of the EDS switches and VPorts will be listed in the Utility window.
  • Page 8 NOTE Broadcast Search can only search for devices connected to the same LAN subnet as the VPort. If your devices are located on a different LAN subnet, use the “Specify IP Address” function to search for the device by keying in the IP address. 4.
  • Page 9 NOTE For Windows XP SP2 or later operating systems, the ActiveX Control component will be blocked for system security reasons. In this case, the VPort’s security warning message window may not appear. Users should unblock the ActiveX control function or disable the security configuration to enable the installation of VPort’s ActiveX Control component.

    NOTE After accessing the VPort 364’s web-based manager, administrators should access System configuration > System > Account to set up the administrator’s password and enable the authentication function. The administrator account name is admin. An authentication window will pop up requesting the account name and password each time the VPort 364 is accessed.
  • Page 11: Din-Rail Mounting

    DIN-Rail Mounting The aluminum DIN-Rail attachment plate should already be attached to the back panel of the VPort 364 when you take it out of the box. If you need to reattach the DIN-Rail attachment plate to the VPort 364, make sure the stiff metal spring is situated towards the top, as shown in the figures below.

    NOTE Test the screw head and shank size by inserting the screw into one of the keyhole shaped apertures of the wall mounting plates, before it is screwed into the wall. STEP 3: Once the screws are fixed in the wall, insert the four screw heads through the large parts of the keyhole-shaped apertures, and then slide the VPort 364 downwards, as indicated below.

    Grounding the Moxa VPort 364 Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects of noise due to electromagnetic interference (EMI). Run the ground connection from the ground screw to the grounding surface prior to connecting devices. ATTENTION This product is intended to be mounted to a well-grounded mounting surface, such as a metal panel.
  • Page 14: Wiring The Relay Output

    Wiring the Relay Output The VPort 364 has two sets of relay output, relay 1 and relay 2, which are located on the two 5-pin terminal block connectors. Each relay output consists of the 3 contacts of the terminal block on the VPort 364’s top panel.

    RS-232 Console Port Connection VPort 364 has one RS-232 (10-pin RJ45) console port, located on the top panel. Use either an RJ45-to-DB9 or RJ45-to-DB25 cable (see the cable following wiring diagrams) to connect VPort 364’s console port to your PC’s COM port. You may then use a console terminal program, such as the Moxa PComm Terminal Emulator, to access VPort 364’s console configuration utility.

    RJ45 (8-pin) to RJ45 (8-pin) Cross-Over Cable Wiring 100BaseFX Ethernet Port Connection The concept behind the SC port and cable is quite straightforward. Suppose that you are connecting devices I and II. Contrary to electrical signals, optical signals do not require a circuit in order to transmit data. Consequently, one fiber optic cable is used to transmit data from device I to device II, and the other fiber optic cable is used transmit data from device II to device I, for full-duplex transmission.

    LED Indicators The front panel of Moxa’s VPort 364 contains several LED indicators. The function of each LED is described in the table below. Color State Description Steady Hardware initialization stage. Flashing Software initialization stage. STAT Green/Red Steady System has booted up and is ready to Green run.
