First-Time Installation and Configuration Before installing the VPort 351 video encoder, check to make sure that all items in the Package Checklist are in the box. In addition, you will need to use a notebook or PC equipped with an Ethernet port. Step 1: Select the Power Source The VPort 351 can be powered by a DC power input from 12 to 32 VDC, or an AC power input from 18 to 30 VAC.

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 351 supports PTZ control protocol drivers for: 1. Pelco D 2. DynaColor SmartDome (supported by V2.0 firmware) If you need to use a protocol that is not on the list, you will need to contact the manufacturer of the camera to get the PTZ control commands, and then program its PTZ control in the VPort 351’s...

2. When the search has finished, the Model Name, IP address, MAC address, Serial (i.e., serial number), and HTTP Port of the VPort will be listed in the VPort Utility window. NOTE Serial refers to the production serial number of this VPort, and the HTTP Port number is the http port used by this VPort.
NOTE For Windows XP SP2 or above 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.

You should also pay attention to the following: Use separate paths to route wiring for power and devices. If power wiring and device wiring paths must cross, make sure the wires are perpendicular at the intersection point. NOTE: Do not run signal or communications wiring and power wiring in the same wire conduit.
Wiring the Relay Output The VPor 351 has two sets of relay outputs, labeled RELAY 1 and RELAY 2, located on the 8-pin terminal block connector. Each relay Normal Open output uses 3 of the contacts on the Common Normal Close 8-pin terminal block.
