Video Quality Caution

FRAME RATE NOTICE REGARDING USER-SELECTED OPTIONS

Pelco systems are capable of providing high quality video for both live viewing and playback. However, the systems can be used in lower quality modes, which can degrade picture quality, to allow for a slower rate of data transfer and to reduce the amount of video data stored. The picture quality can be degraded by either lowering the resolution, reducing the picture rate, or both. A picture degraded by having a reduced resolution may result in an image that is less clear or even indiscernible. A picture degraded by reducing the picture rate has fewer frames per second, which can result in images that appear to jump or move more quickly than normal during playback. Lower frame rates may result in a key event not being recorded by the system.

Judgment as to the suitability of the products for users’ purposes is solely the users’ responsibility. Users shall determine the suitability of the products for their own intended application, picture rate and picture quality. In the event users intend to use the video for evidentiary purposes in a judicial proceeding or otherwise, users should consult with their attorney regarding any particular requirements for such use.

Description

The NET5308T-EXP multichannel dual stream video encoder is an enterprise-class, 8-input video encoding unit that is used exclusively with the

NET5300B base module. Designed to accommodate the stringent requirements of high-performance video monitoring applications, each

NET5308T-EXP converts eight channels of live analog video into dual MPEG-4 video streams at up to 4CIF resolution and 30 images per second

(ips) per stream.

The NET5308T-EXP captures up to eight audio inputs simultaneously. It provides this powerful video and audio encoding capability in an extremely small footprint, thus optimizing the physical space required for video monitoring and recording operations. Once converted to MPEG-4, the unit transmits these streams over a USB 2.0 interface through its NET5300B to an NVR5100 Series network video recorder or other Endura

® video recorder. These streams can be decoded by the following Endura components:

• NET5301R video decoder: Converts up to 4 video streams for display or recording on an analog device.

• Endura workstation: Converts up to 16 video streams for display on a computer monitor.

• VCD5000 video console display: Converts up to 64 video streams (depending on model) for display or recording on an analog device.

• CM9700MDD-EVS matrix video decoder: Converts 1 video stream for display on matrix monitors.

• GW5000 Endura gateway: Delivers up to 4 simultaneous video streams from the Endura network to users communicating through a public network with limited bandwidth, such as a Local Area Network (LAN), Wide Area Network (WAN), or the Internet.

The NET5308T-EXP can be configured for eight alarm inputs and four relay outputs. When an alarm event is triggered, the Endura system can send a message to an operator, trigger a relay, and implement video recording.

The unit also supports activity detection. You can configure up to four activity zones per video input. When the NET5308T-EXP detects activity in any of these areas, it can trigger an alarm event.

The NET5308T-EXP supports one audio input for each video input, and associates the audio with the primary video stream. The system operators

(security personnel) can hear activity at the associated camera site over the network.

The NET5308T-EXP with its NET5300B supports control of pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ) cameras. It supports Pelco D, Pelco P, and Coaxitron ® protocols.

With Coaxitron, the NET5300B receives commands from a Pelco controller and transmits those commands to the PTZ device through the

NET5308T-EXP. With Pelco D/Pelco P, the NET5300B transmits those commands directly to the PTZ device over a serial connection.

With its modular design, you can connect up to two NET5308T-EXP units to each NET5300B for a maximum of 16 analog video inputs per

NET5300B.

Video can be monitored and played from the CM9700 Series (CM9760/9770/9780) matrix, an Endura workstation, or a VCD5000 video console display.

Before You Begin

Endura is a network system that requires a continuous amount of bandwidth to transmit true, live video. Therefore, always include your network administrator when planning and installing Endura components.

You will also need the following items:

• Pelco-approved Endura certification

• Power source (110/220 VAC)

• Up to eight analog video devices (fixed or PTZ camera)

• One or more NTSC or PAL monitors (one for installation; one or more if using looping video)

• Line-in audio source (if using audio)

• Phillips screwdriver

• Small flat-tip screwdriver (if connecting relays or alarms)

• A NET5300B base module with access to an Endura network

– that is an active, Gigabit Ethernet network that supports the full Internet Protocol suite,

– that is configured with at least one NVR5100 Series network video recorder or other Endura video recorder, and

– that is configured with at least one Endura workstation

NOTE: These network requirements represent the minimum standard for a small Endura-capable security network. Please consult the Endura

Network Design Guide (C1640M) to make sure your network is properly configured. Your system may be different and may require additional hardware, software, and network resources.

Rack Mounting

The NET5308T-EXP mounts into an industry-standard 19-inch (48 cm) equipment rack. The NET5308T-EXP occupies one rack unit (1.75 inches or

4.5 cm) of vertical rack space. The hardware necessary to mount the NET5308T-EXP into a rack is supplied with the unit.

NOTES:

• If you installed the NET5300B on a desktop, you can also place up to two NET5308T-EXP units on top of the NET5300B. (NET5308T-EXP units do not include rubber feet.)

• You can mount a NET5300B and up to two NET5308T-EXP units to a wall using the WM5300 wall mount. Refer to the WM5300 Wall Mount

Kit Installation manual (C2663M) for more information.

The rack must meet the following requirements:

• 19-inch (48 cm) EIA-310-D compliant (rear column required to mount the NET5300B in the same rack).

• Rack column depth: 24 to 30 inches (61 to 76 cm).

• Column-mounting hole provisions: 10-32 UNF-2B threaded holes or square window holes on front columns.

• Door systems are acceptable. Front doors must have at least 2 inches (5.1 cm) between the NET5308T-EXP front bezel and the inside of the door. Rear doors can only be used on rack columns that are more than 26 inches (66 cm) deep.

WARNINGS:

• Secure the front and rear screws to the support rails.

• Make sure the NET5308T-EXP is level.

• Slots and openings in the cabinet provide ventilation to prevent the unit from overheating. Do not block these openings. Never place the unit near or over a radiator or heat register. When placing the unit in a rack, be sure to provide proper ventilation. Allow at least one rack unit (1.75 inches or 4.44 cm) of spacing between units.

To install the NET5308T-EXP in a rack:

NOTE: Figure 3 identifies each piece of hardware for this procedure.

1. If chassis mounting brackets are not attached: Attach one chassis mounting bracket to each side of the NET5308T-EXP. Use three

CONNECTING TO THE NET5300B

You can connect up to two NET5308T-EXP video encoders to the NET5300B base module. This gives the NET5308T a maximum capacity of

16 inputs.

NOTES:

•

Before connecting the NET5308T-EXP to its NET5300B, make sure power is off to the NET5308T-EXP.

•

Do not start any NET5300B system component (NET5308T-EXP, network, camera control) until you have connected all components.

Two of the three USB ports on the NET5300B rear panel correspond to a specific set of video inputs (refer to Table A on this page and Figure 13 on page 17). Each NET5300B includes two different colored USB cables and a matching set of colored stickers. Use them on the NET5308T-EXP

to match each NET5308T-EXP to its specific video inputs.

CONNECTING VIDEO INPUT

The NET5308T-EXP automatically detects the video standard (PAL or NTSC) when you connect a video input. It accepts both color and black-white analog video. Use the Endura workstation to enable or disable video termination for each video input. Video termination is enabled by default.

NOTES:

•

Enabling line lock on cameras may cause video distortion. There may be noise in the camera’s power source. If video from one or more cameras is distorted, Pelco recommends disabling line lock on the camera as your first troubleshooting step.

•

If a video distribution amplifier, such as a CM9760-MDA, is installed between the video source and the NET5308T-EXP, do not set the output video level above 1 Vp-p.

To connect each video input:

1. Connect a coaxial cable to the camera or other analog video source.

2. Connect the coaxial cable to the video in connector on the rear panel.

NOTE: You may have to use a BNC installation tool to connect coaxial cables to the rear panel.

After connecting the coaxial cables to the NET5308T-EXP, use the SEQ video output to verify each video source (refer to Connecting Sequence

Monitor on page 24).

CAMERA CONTROL: COAXITRON

Coaxitron is Pelco’s up-the-coax technology. It requires only a coaxial cable and no other wiring or equipment. When the NET5308T-EXP receives a camera control command, it transmits that command up the coaxial cable to the PTZ device. Coaxitron is a single-direction protocol; the PTZ device cannot return any data to the unit.

To enable Coaxitron operation, connect the PTZ device to the video input on the NET5308T-EXP. Since Coaxitron is disabled by default for each camera, use the Endura workstation to enable it on the specific video inputs.

CAMERA CONTROL: PELCO D/PELCO P PROTOCOL

The NET5300B and NET5308T-EXP together support Pelco D (4-wire) and Pelco P (2-wire) protocols. These protocols use a serial interface to transmit commands to the PTZ device over separate control wires. Refer to Connecting Serial PTZ Devices in the Endura NET5300B Multichannel

Video Encoder Base Module Installation manual (C2614M) for more information.

C2655M-A (10/08)

CONNECTING LOOPING VIDEO

The NET5308T-EXP supports looping video. It passes the video input to a monitor or other analog video device.

To use looping video:

1. Connect a coaxial cable to the video out connector on the rear panel.

NOTE: You may have to use a BNC installation tool to connect coaxial cables to the rear panel.

2. Connect the other end of the coaxial cable to the analog device.

3. After installation, use the Endura workstation to disable video termination for the video channel.

4. If looping video to additional devices, disable video termination (Hi-Z) on each device. Enable termination (75 ohms) on the last device.

NOTES:

• If you do not terminate the video signal at the last device in the series, ghosting or other imperfections may appear in the video signal.

• During a power loss, the video termination settings may be lost. As a result, video imperfections may appear on devices that receive looping video from the NET5308T-EXP. If this is not acceptable in your installation, use alternate looping methods.

CONNECTING AUDIO

The NET5308T-EXP supports eight audio inputs, each associated with the main video stream for its corresponding video input. The unit encodes audio and video signals simultaneously. This lets you control audio at the monitored location.

The unit supports line level inputs. Microphones must be amplified for best results.

C2655M-A (10/08) 19

CONNECTING RELAY DEVICES

The NET5308T-EXP supports up to four relay devices. Use them to trigger external devices. The unit supports both momentary and continuous relay operation, either normally open or normally closed.

You can operate the relay interactively, during an active connection, or automatically to coincide with certain events. Typical applications include activating a door, gate, or lock, or switching on lights or other electrical devices.

WARNING:

Do not exceed the maximum ratings: 30 VDC, 2 A; 125 VAC, 0.5 A.

When wiring the connector:

• Use 16 to 26 AWG (0.14 to 1.5 mm 2 ) wire that is rated for 250 V or higher. The insulation must be thick enough to protect against electrostatic discharge (ESD).

• Strip the relay control wire to 0.3 inches (7.6 mm).

• Insert the wire far enough into the connector so that the metal is not exposed.

• When using a relay with a higher load, install an external, more powerful relay.

The unit includes two 6-pin relay control terminal blocks. These blocks have tension clamps. Use a small screwdriver to open the clamp for a

particular lead. Figure 16 shows how to wire the relay control terminal block and connect it to the NET5308T-EXP.

NOTE: The terminal block is keyed. It attaches only one way to the NET5308T-EXP.

CONNECTING ALARMS

The NET5308T-EXP offers eight alarm inputs for external signaling devices, such as door contacts or motion detectors. Each alarm input can be either normally open or normally closed, either supervised or unsupervised.

Once configured, an alarm input can invoke many different activities, including triggering a relay device, sending an alert to a security office, changing the video recording settings, and storing pre-alarm video to an NVR5100 Series network video recorder or other Endura video recorder.

You can connect switches or contacts directly to the unit without a separate power supply.

SUPERVISED ALARMS

When an alarm is configured as a supervised alarm, the NET5308T-EXP maintains a constant electrical current through the alarm circuit (5.0 VDC,

10 kohms), including a 10-kohm resistor. If the resistance changes, due to an electrical short or a bypass, the voltage fluctuates from its normal state. Therefore, the unit triggers an alarm.

Figure 18 illustrates the alarm and no alarm conditions of a supervised alarm input. Whether the alarm is normally closed or normally open,

neither a cut nor a bypass can defeat these alarms.

The unit includes two 8-pin alarm terminal blocks. These blocks have tension clamps. Use a small screwdriver to open the clamp for a particular

lead. Figure 22 shows how to wire the alarm terminal block and connect it to the NET5308T-EXP.

When wiring the connector:

• Use 20 to 28 AWG (0.08 to 0.5 mm

2

) wire that is rated for 250 V or higher. The insulation must be thick enough to protect against electrostatic discharge (ESD).

• Strip the alarm wire to 0.31 inches (8 mm).

• Insert the wire far enough into the connector so that the metal is not exposed.

The terminal block is keyed. It attaches only one way to the NET5308T-EXP.

These pins, labels, and leads also correspond to alarms 5–8 on the other alarm terminal block.

To prevent false alarms on unused alarm inputs, configure or connect (jumper) unused alarm inputs using one of the following options:

• Configure the alarm input as unsupervised and normally open on the Endura workstation. You do not have to connect the alarm input. This is the default.

• Configure the alarm input as unsupervised and normally closed on the Endura workstation. Then connect the alarm input directly to its ground. For example, connect pin 1 (Alarm 1) to pin 2 (Ground) if not using Alarm 1.

• Configure the alarm input as supervised and either normally open or normally closed. Then connect the alarm input directly to its ground through a 10-kohm resistor. For example, if not using Alarm 1, connect pin 1 (Alarm 1) to a 10-kohm resistor; then connect the resistor to pin 2 (Ground).

CONNECTING POWER

The power supply incorporated into the NET5308T-EXP is tested and certified for high reliability applications. The unit has an autoranging power supply that adapts automatically to voltages between 100 VAC and 240 VAC (50/60 Hz).

For greater reliability, you can also install an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) (not supplied). UPS devices maintain a limited amount of backup battery power in case the main power fails. The UPS should have a minimum rating of 200 VA for one NET5300B and two NET5308T-EXP units.

To connect power:

1. Connect one of the supplied US, European, or UK standard power cords to rear of the unit.

2. Connect the cord to the appropriate power source.

Refer to Unit Startup on page 26 to power up the unit.

CONNECTING SEQUENCE MONITOR

Use the SEQ output connector during installation to display video sequentially from each video input. The unit displays each channel for two seconds. It displays a black screen for channels without video. Use this feature to verify camera installation.

To display video from each connected video source:

1. Connect a video monitor to the SEQ output connector.

2. Start the NET5308T-EXP, the monitor, and each video source.

3. Verify the video from each source and troubleshoot as necessary.
