  • Page 5: Introduction

    N for LAN connection The VT104 model, with hard disc, is able to transmit and record. The VT104-RAM model, without hard disc, is a transmitter, though it is also able to record a small amount of sequences in its memory.

    1.2 Security advices Verify that the power adapter provided with your equipment matches the voltage specifications of your power source. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO USE THE EQUIPMENT WITH A POWER SUPPLY OTHER THAN THE ONE PROVIDED BY THE MANUFACTURER! The electric current socket must be easily reachable and close to the equipment. Do not use the equipment in extreme environments where high temperature or high humidity exists.

  • Page 8: Functional Description

    The communication between the Supervisor and the equipment provides a bidirectional transparent channel canal allowing the remote control of domes and other devices. Note1 : The VT104-LITE mode only has two alarm inputs and one relay output, and it does not have bidirectional transparent channel. Note 2: The I/O devices can also be connected directly into the VT100 in case no alarm panel is present.

  • Page 9: Functionality Of The Vt100 Equipment

    Models VT104-RAM / VT104-LITE The VT104-RAM does not have hard disc, but it is able to record in memory 4 sequences up to 35 images each. The oldest sequences are automatically erased when new sequences are recorded. Given the small number of sequences that can be stored, only event recording, but no time lapse, is available.
  • Page 10 Communication between the Supervisor and the VT100 equipment offers a bidirectional transparent channel allowing remote control of domes and other external devices, like anti-theft systems (EAS), point-of-sale terminals, etc. The VT104-LITE model does not offer transparent channel nor the possibility of remote control.

    3.2 Rear view (Connections) Below you will find a diagram of the rear side of the VT100. The VT104-LITE does not have power switch, RS232 or digital I/O leds, and it only has two alarm inputs and one relay output.

  • Page 13: Power Supply

    3.2.2 Communication lines The connection of the communication is different (See Fig. 5) depending on the VT100 model (do not forget that the VT104-LITE, regarding communications, is equivalent to a VT104-RAM- T without NullModem): There are different models of VT100 equipments:...

  • Page 14: Video Signals And Domes

    NullModem connection All VT100 equipments (except the VT04-LITE) have a RS232 port that has been configured to work directly with a NullModem cable. You should be able to connect to the equipment locally from the Supervisor without having to change the configuration of the VT100. Also you need to make sure that the Supervisor has been configured to work with NullModem.

  • Page 15: Alarm Inputs

    (VideoSetup and Supervisor). 3.2.4 Alarm inputs The equipment has 8 alarm inputs (two for the VT104-LITE) without galvanic isolation, (see the pins layout diagram of the Fig. 7), so the activation/deactivation of the digital signals requires voltage-free contacts, thus allowing for the isolation of the sensor and the equipment.

  • Page 16: Relay Outputs

    3.2.5 Relay outputs The equipment is provided also with four relay outputs (one for the VT104-LITE). Each relay provides normally open (NO) and normally closed (NC) contacts. Their electrical features are as follows: Maximum switching voltage: 24V AC/DC Maximum switching current: 1A There are 4 LEDs situated over the relay outputs to show the status of each one of them.

    3.2.6 Alarm inputs and relay outputs pins layout In the next diagram you will find the pins layout for the connection of the alarm inputs and the relay outputs. For the VT104-LITE this layout consists of just two alarm inputs and one relay output.

  • Page 18: Installation Of The Vt100

    Open the VT100 box and check that the following items are present in the box: (see Fig. 8). 1. Your adequate VT100 model (check out the frontal or the label of the unit) : VT104 (with hard disk), VT104-RAM (no hard disk) or VT104-LITE (no hard disk, basic equipment).

  • Page 19: Installation

    7. Connect the power adapter to the VT100 and switch on the equipment by pressing the I/O switch situated at its rear (the VT104-LITE does not have power switch, so the unit starts automatically when plugged to the power supply).

  • Page 20: Verifying The Installation

    4.3 Verifying the installation Verify that the Power ON LED and the Modem TR LED of the VT100 equipment are active. It means that the equipment is switched on and the modem is detected and ready. Note that the 'TR' LED only means that the modem is ready.

  • Page 24: Appendix 2 - Configuring A Vt100-N Unit With Lan Connection

    Appendix 2 – Configuring a VT100-N unit with LAN connection Introduction A VT100-N digital video transmitter (model with LAN connection for TCP/IP communication) is equipped with a LAN adapter. The equipment works in 10Mb or 10/100 Mb networks and the connection is established by plugging in one end of the supplied RJ45 cable to the equipment and the other to the local network of the establishment.

  • Page 25: Installing And Configuring The Lan Communication In Avt100 Unit

    Installing and configuring the LAN communication in a VT100 unit When you proceed to the installation of the unit: Make sure that the unit is in its final location and that the computer to be used for the configuration of the adapter are in the same local network. Bear in mind that the VT100 with TCP/IP connection is established within a particular local network and if the unit is moved to a different local network, the configuration given to the LAN adapter will be useless to establish connection with the unit.

  • Page 26: Configuration Process Of The Lan Adapter By Ipset.exe

    Configuration process of the LAN adapter by IPSet.exe Configuring the LAN adapter is essential to be able to connect with the VT100. To do so, you will need the computer arranged by the local network administrator to be able to run IPSet.exe, an assisted configuration program that is supplied with the Supervisor CD.

    Action: contact your distributor. Intermittent lighting of the Error LED (LED #3): Error: The Error LED is flickering along with the LED #1 within 5sec. to 5sec. sequences and with a 1sec. pause in between. This indicates that the device has no IP address, a) because the equipment is new and no IP address has not been assigned yet or, b) because the equipment has been reconfigured and the IP address has been deleted.
