and other peripheral equipments’ operation such as cameras.
Connecting Video Input and Output Devices
Connecting Video Input
The video input interface is BNC. The input video format includes:
PAL/NTSC BNC(1.0VP- P ， 75Ω).
The video signal should comply with your national standards.
The input video signal should have high SNR, low distortion, low
interference, natural color and suitable lightness.
Guarantee the stability and reliability of the camera signal:
The camera should be installed in a cool, dry place away from direct
sunlight, inflammable, explosive substances, etc.
The camera and the DVR should have the same grounding to ensure
normal operation of the camera.
Guarantee the stability and reliability of the transmission line
Honeywell
19
Please use high quality, sound shielded BNC. Please select suitable BNC
model according to the transmission distance.
If the distance is too long, you should use twisted pair cable, and you can
add video compensation devices or use optical fiber to ensure video quality.
You should keep the video signal away from the strong electromagnetic
interference, especially the high tension current.
Keep connection lugs in well contact
The signal line and shielded wire should be fixed firmly and in well
connection. Avoid dry joint, lap welding and oxidation.
Connecting Video Output
Video output includes BNC (CVBS PAL/NTSC, 1.0VP-P, 75Ω), VGA and
HDMI.
The system supports the three kinds of outputs at the same time.
When you are using PC monitor to replace standard CCTV monitor, please
pay attention to the following points:
• To extend the product’s life, do not run the pc monitor for a long time.
• Regular demagnetization will keep device maintaining proper status.
• Keep it away from strong electromagnetic interference devices.
Using TV as video output device is not a reliable substitution method. You
also need to reduce the working hour and control the interference from
power supply and other devices. The low quality TV may result in device
damage.
Connecting Audio Input & Output
Audio Input
The four audio input channels are bound to video input channel 1-4.
Use the BNC connector to connect the audio channel.
Due to high impedance of audio input, please use active sound pick-up.
Audio transmission is similar to video transmission. Try to avoid
interference, dry joint, and it shall be away from high tension current
Installation and Connections
20
Audio Output
The audio output signal parameter is usually over 200mv 1KΩ (BNC). It can
directly connect to low impedance earphones, active sound box or
amplifier-drive audio output device.
If the sound box and the pick-up cannot be separated spatially, it is easy to
cause a squeaking noise. In this case you can adopt the following
measures:
• Use better sound pick-up with better directing property.
• Reduce the volume of the sound box.
• Use more sound-absorbing materials in decoration to reduce voice
echo and improve acoustics environment.
• Adjust the layout to reduce the occurrence of the squeaking.
Alarm Input and Output Connection
Please refer to the following sheet for alarm input and output connection.
There are two alarm input types for you to select: normal open (NO) and
normal close (NC).
1. Alarm input
a Please make sure alarm input mode is grounding alarm input.
b Grounding signal is needed for alarm input.
c When you are connecting two DVRs or connecting one DVR and
one other device, please use a relay to separate them
2. Alarm output
The alarm output port should not be connected to a high power load
directly (It shall be less than 1A) to avoid high current which may result
in relay damage. Please use the co contactor to realize the connection
between the alarm output port and the load.
3. Please make sure the front-end devices have been well earthed.
Improper grounding may result in chip damage.

RS485
When the DVR receives a camera control command, it transmits that
command up the coaxial cable to the PTZ device. RS485 is a single-
direction protocol; the PTZ device cannot return any data to the unit. To
enable the operation, connect the PTZ device to the RS485 (A,B) input on
the DVR. See Figure 3-3.
Since RS485 is disabled by default for each camera, you must enable the
PTZ settings first. This series DVRs support multiple protocols such as
Pelco-D, Pelco-P.
To connect PTZ devices to the DVR:
1. Connect RS485 A,B on the DVR rear panel.
a. Ensure the decoder has the same grounding with the DVR,
otherwise you will not be able to control the PTZ. Shielded twisted wire
is recommended, and the shielded layer should be used to connect the
ground.
b. Avoid high voltage. Ensure proper wiring and some thunder
protection measures.
c. For signal wires that are too long, 120Ω should be connected parallel
between A, B lines on the far end to reduce reflection and guarantee
signal quality.
Installation and Connections
24
d “485 A, B” of DVR cannot connect parallel with “485 port” of other
device.
e. The voltage between of A, B lines of the decoder should be less than
