to a valid network/Ethernet device. If connected to a switch or KBC WES system
then a straight through cable is needed for this connection. If the encoder and
decoder are being tested back to back or through a KBC Mesh system, a
crossover cable will be needed.
5. Mount the DEC-A at the desired location. The decoder is not weatherproof and
will need to be mounted in a suitable environmental enclosure if used outside or
in a harsh environment. Typically the decoder will be located in close proximity to
the analog video device it will be connected to such as a monitor, DVR,
muliplexer, etc.
6. Connect an analog video cable from the Composite BNC output on the decoder to
the input of the analog device it will be connected to. If the system requires data
transmission (pan/tilt/zoom or other RS485/422/232 data) connect the wires
from the control device to the RS485/422/232 Tx+, Tx-, Rx+ & Rx- ports. If the
system requires alarm communication and/or audio, connect alarm device wires
to the Digital Input (DI) ports and mic/speakers to in/out ports.
7. Connect the LAN/WAN port of the decoder to a wired or wireless network. The
green and amber LEDs of the LAN port will illuminate if the DEC-A is connected to
a valid network/Ethernet device. If connected to a switch or wireless system then
a straight through cable is needed for this connection. When the encoder has
established communication with the decoder, The green LED on the encoder and
the amber LED on the decoder will flash rapidly. Analog video from the analog
video source connected to the encoder will be displayed on the device the
Composite output of the decoder is connected to.
2.3.3 Mounting the Encoder in a KBC LWE-ED enclosure*
See instructions included with enclosure for parts list and dimensions.
1. Attach KBC Encoder to mounting braces using self-thread Philips screws. Ensure
top and bottom holes are positioned at the outside corners and leave connection
loose to be able to screw into the housing. See Figure #1. Mount the Encoder
and brace assembly into the enclosure using four M5 x .9P x 10mm Philips pan
head screws. Tighten all eight screws. Attach the enclosure to a wall or pole (Pole
mounting hardware included).
2. Remove green connector from Encoder power supply in order to feed the cable
through the weatherproof plugs. Remove the black grommet from the white plug
and insert the power cable through the weatherproof plug. Reattach grommet
into plug and green connector onto power supply. Ensure white dashed cable is
inserted into 12V port and solid black cable into GRD port. If using a D900
Transceiver, place the transceiver on its side and adjust the antenna so it is
pointing up.
