Installation Manual - sc1dn-A Introduction The trk-101 is a self-contained video analytic encoder that monitors the video input video from a camera. Figure 1: trk-101 Unit The unit provides alarms when it automatically detects specific events, such as region entrance, fence trespassing, tripwire crossover, which trigger an automatic notification. It also serves as a standard video encoder that digitizes and compresses the video input stream.

Figure 4: trk-101 Video Connection Panel The video connection panel of the unit includes the following items: 4 Item Description Analog Video In (BNC) Input interface for receiving the surveillance camera analog video signal (source) for analysis and detection.
Installing and Connecting the Unit Installing and Connecting the Unit This section describes how to install and connect the unit and includes the following sections: Installing the Unit (page 5) Connecting the Unit (page 7) Resetting the Unit (page 12) Note: After connecting the unit, proceed to configure the unit as described in the HTML Edition Units User’s Guide. 3.1 Installing the Unit The unit can be installed and mounted next to the camera (inside the camera enclosure).
Installing and Connecting the Unit 3.1.1 Assembling the Unit in a Rack Mount Panel (Optional Accessory) Up to 10 units can be mounted on a single rack mount panel. After the units have been assembled in the rack mount panel, the panel can be installed in a standard 19-inch rack. To assemble units in a rack mount panel: 1. Remove the nut and washer from each of the two video connectors on the video connection panel of the unit. Figure 5: trk-101 with Nuts Removed 2.
Installing and Connecting the Unit 3. Fasten each unit using the nuts and washers removed in step 1, making sure to first place the washer on each video connector before tightening the nut on the video connector. 4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 for each of the units you want to assemble on the rack mount panel (up to 10 units can be assembled per panel). 5. Attach the rack mount panel to a 19" rack. 3.
Installing and Connecting the Unit To power to the unit using a power outlet: 1. Connect the AC adaptor output to the terminal block on the power connection panel of the unit. 2. Connect the AC adaptor to the power outlet. Warning: To prevent bodily injury or damage to the unit, use only properly rated and approved power supplies and/or AC adaptors. Warning: Make sure that the power supply matches the required specifications. Electrical safety should always be observed. 3.2.
Installing and Connecting the Unit To change the unit’s IP address: 1. Insert the CD included in the package in your computer’s disk drive. 2. Run the configurator.exe file by clicking on the icon. The Configurator application opens. 3. Select the unit by right-clicking on it. Figure 7: Configurator Window 4. In the Unit network configuration section, enter the IP address, Subnet mask, and Gateway IP address. Note: It is possible to set the IP address without changing the subnet. 5.
Installing and Connecting the Unit To connect a video source to the unit: 1. Securely connect the video cable connector (BNC) to the analog video output of the camera or video source. 2. Connect the other cable end (BNC) to the VIDEO IN connection on the video connection panel of the unit (see Figure 4: trk-101 Video Connection Panel). To set the video standard for the unit via its web interface: 1. Enter the IP address of the unit in a browser. The unit’s logon window opens. 2.
Installing and Connecting the Unit The analog Video Output (composite video) contains the video from the camera combined with On-Screen Display (OSD) overlays such as detected objects, tracking boxes and trails, time stamp, alarm, camera status, and so on. These OSDs can be enabled and customized using the unit embedded HTML user interface. The analog video output can be monitored using an analog monitor or recorded on a digital video recorder (DVR).
Installing and Connecting the Unit For more information on incident responses and relay outputs, refer to the HTML Edition Units User’s Guide. Warning: The signal from the Relay Output of the unit must be used as an indicator and not for direct control of a device. Caution: To prevent damage to the unit, do not exceed the voltage and current ratings for the relay terminals. Relay Contacts Schematics Figure 9: Relay Contacts Schematic The input supports opto-isolated signal for a single external device.
Installing and Connecting the Unit 3.3.1 Hard Reset Using the Reset Button The unit has a Reset button located on the power connection panel of the unit. (See Figure 3: trk-101 Power Connection Panel) To reset a unit using the Reset button: 7. Insert a small pointed object into the hole labeled Reset on the power connection panel of the unit. 8. Press in and release the button within 5 seconds. The unit resets to its last settings and the LED flashes green. 3.3.

Appendix A.2. Connecting Leads to a Spring Clamp Terminal Block The unit is delivered with two terminal block connectors. The connectors enable you to connect wires for either the Relay Output or Alarm Inputs and then connect them to the unit. Figure 10: Spring Clamp Terminal Block To connect a wire to the spring clamp terminal block: 11. Strip the insulation form the end of each wire that is to be connected to the terminal block. Approximately 1 cm (2.54”) of wire should be exposed. 12.
Appendix A.3. Night Mode Max FPS A new setting, Night Mode Max FPS, has been added to the Setup>Camera>Video Settings>Advanced tab. This setting can be implemented via the camera’s web interface. Figure 12: Night Mode Max FPS Window This setting is used to improve the image quality in low-light situations by increasing the exposure time of the camera’s sensor, which, in turn, decreases the frames per second (FPS).
Appendix The actual encoder FPS will be the lower of the sensor FPS setting or the encoder FPS setting. The following table illustrates actual behavior of the FPS: Encoder FPS Setting Sensor FPS Setting Half (NTSC/PAL) Full (NTSC/PAL) (NTSC/PAL) Quarter (NTSC/PAL) 30/25 30/25 15/12.5 7.5/6.25 15/12.5 15/12.5 15/12.5 7.5/6.25 7.5/6.25 7.5/6.25 7.5/6.25 7.5/6.25 Actual Encoder FPS Note: When setting Quarter FPS, the system might not detect fast-moving objects.
Appendix A.4. Troubleshooting This section provides useful information and remedies for common situations where problems may be encountered. Problem Possible Solution No network connection Hardware issues: Check that the network is working and the unit is powered on. Check that the network (Ethernet) cable is properly attached to the unit. Confirm that the LED on the Ethernet (RJ-45) connector on the power connection panel of the unit is on.
Appendix Problem Bad output video quality Possible Solution Streaming video image is hanging (stopped) Alarm Inputs are not working Relay Outputs are not working 22 Check the source video signal quality by connecting an analog monitor to the video source. If video quality is acceptable, connect video source to the unit. Check that the cables are connected securely. This includes junction boxes and amplifier that may be used.
Appendix A.5. N/O to N/C Relay Configuration The on-board relay in the trk-101 provides a single contact which is by default Normally Open (N/O), enabling it to be configured to CLOSED upon an alarm condition. This is usually configured with a momentary closure (for example, five seconds), followed by returning to the OPEN condition, to be ready for the next alarm event.
