VideoJet X40 Installation | en 4 Installation 4.1 Preparations 19 The VideoJet X40 features industrial standard equipment and is therefore suitable for both stationary installation and mobile installation in vehicles. CAUTION! The unit is intended for use indoors or in housings. Select a suitable location for installation that guarantees to meet the environmental ! conditions. The ambient temperature must be between –30 and +60 °C (–22 and +140 °F). The relative humidity must not exceed 95%.
en | Installation 4.3 VideoJet X40 Connections Cameras You can connect four video sources to the VideoJet X40. Any cameras and other video sources that produce a standard PAL or NTSC signal are suitable. 1. Connect the cameras or other video sources to the BNC sockets Video In 1 to Video In 4 using a video cable (75 Ohm, BNC plug). 2. If the video signal is not looped through, termination is performed by a software setting if necessary (see Section 5.17 Advanced Mode: Video Input, page 46).
VideoJet X40 Installation | en 21 SFP Slot You can establish an additional network connection by inserting a mini-GBIC module into the SFP slot for example via fiber optic cables (OF). ! CAUTION! Only laser class 1 transceivers are approved for use in the VideoJet X40. Use only approved modules. Direct iSCSI Connection You can connect the VideoJet X40 directly to an iSCSI system via one of the network interfaces. For ETH 1 or ETH 2 connections, use a UTP category 5 network cable with RJ45 plugs.
en | Installation VideoJet X40 Data Interface The bidirectional data interface is used to control units connected to the VideoJet X40, such as a dome camera with a motorized lens. The connection supports the RS-232, RS-422 and RS-485 transmission standards. The VideoJet X40 offers the serial interface via the orange terminal block (see Section 8.8 Terminal Block, page 115). The range of controllable equipment is expanding constantly.
VideoJet X40 Installation | en 23 Relay Outputs The VideoJet X40 has four relay outputs for switching external units such as lamps or alarm sirens.
