5. System Connections
TCAM-230 systems can be connected in either 1-to-1 fashion where one TCAM-230 is connected one PC client or decoder system or 1-to-many fashion where one TCAM-230 connected to many PC and decoder systems. (TCS-200 video server can work as a decoder system which takes the data from a video server or IP camera, decodes and outputs analog video.) n
Topology
Generally, the TCAM-230 and the PC & decoder are connected in 1-to-1 mode or 1-tomany connection is also supported.

In this configuration, a site can be monitored from many remote center locations.
Although up to 64 PCs or decoders can be connected to on TCAM-230, in the real network environment, network bandwidth can limit the maximum connections.
Functionally, the central monitoring system software can replace the decoder.
Multicast Mode
Within the network that supports multicasting, a large number of decoders can be used to receive video effectively from an TCAM-230 using a single streaming of video and audio.

2. Installation
1. Connecting Network(LAN)
Connect LAN and there is a Video output to check video quality.
2. Connecting Audio
Audio is bi-directional in any configuration. If necessary, it can be configured to be in transmit-only, receive -only or bi-directional mode.
- Connect audio input and output ports to audio devices accordingly.
- Audio signal is in line level, therefore, microphone or speaker with amplification function should be used.
3. Connecting Serial Ports
The serial port (RS-485) in TCAM-230 can be connected to external equipment such as
PTZ receiver etc. Then, PC client can send PTZ commands to the external equipment via serial port. When a decoder system instead of PC client is connected to TCAM-230, the serial port of TCAM-230 and that of the decoder system works in pass-through mode. That is, data at one port are delivered to the other port, vice versa.
4. Connecting Sensor and Alarm
Connect sensor and alarm devices to corresponding terminals accordingly.
5. Connecting Power
After confirming the power source, connect power adaptor and connect the 12V DC connector to the system. Soon the system will boot up to an operating mode.
-11-
TCAM-230 User Manual
6. Check if It Works
As soon as the power is supplied to the system, it will boot and, after about 30 seconds, the system will be ready for operation.
3. System Operation
1. Remote Video Monitoring
There are two ways to view the video once connections are made between the site and center system. In order for a proper operation, an IP address must be set accordingly and please refer to True Manager Manual or Remote Setting in Chapter 5 for a further details.
Default ID : admin Password : 1234
n Video Monitoring with Decoder System
Once the TCAM-230 IP address is set in the remote IP address section of the decoder, the decoder system will connect to the TCAM-230 and start receiving the video images.
Normally, a monitor connected to the decoder will display video images. n Video Monitoring using Internet Explorer
If an encoder’s IP address in entered on the Internet Explorer, the system will ask for confirmation to install Active-X control. Once authorized, the Internet Explorer will start to display video images from the encoder as shown below.

2. Initialization of IP Address
If a system IP address is lost, the system can be reset to a known IP address using the reset button in the back side of the system:
While system is in operation, press the reset button more than 5 seconds.
The system will reboot automatically
Once the system has been rebooted, IP address will be set to the following.
-
