4. Hardware Overview
The DVTel EV Series multi-port encoders are available in five models: EV-116, EV-208, EV-208-A, EV-216, and EV-216-A.
The EV-208 and EV-208-A are eight-port models. The EV-116, EV-216, and EV-216-A are 16-port models. Only the "-A"
models support audio.
Prior to adding the EV-116 encoder to the Latitude VMS, use the EV Device SConfigurator software to set the mode of the
unit. The change takes effect after rebooting the unit. For information on changing the setting, see
Encoding
Mode.
For information on configuring the encoder to operate with Latitude, see
NOTE: The RX of the PTZ camera should be connected to the RX of the encoder. For camera feedback, the TX of the PTZ
camera should be connected to the TX of the encoder.
