This section discusses the proper handling of wires and cables when connecting sensors, relays and

otherdevicestotheSVR-1670.

You might need to prepare cables before connecting them to terminal blocks. Different wire gauges

are needed for stranded wire or solid wire. Prepare the end of the wire by removing the following

amounts of insulation:

· Stranded wire : Strip 1/3 ~ 1/2" (8 ~ 10mm) of insulation off the end of the wire and solder it together.

Use AWG 22 ~ 26 wire.

· Solid wire : Strip 1/3 ~ 1/2" (8 ~ 10mm) of insulation off the end of the wire. Use AWG 20 ~ 26.

3. 3 Basic Connections to the SVR-1670

Always turn off the SVR-1670 and disconnect the power cord from its power source before

you connect devices to the SVR-1670.

When inserting or removing a wire from a terminal block, do it while holding down the terminal block

with a screw driver.

Figure 3.3.1 Sample Connection Diagrams

Figure 3.3.2 Connecting Cameras to the SVR-1670

Figure 3.3.3 Video Input and Output Connections

Never connect both NTSC and PAL cameras to the SVR-1670 at the same time. The SVR-

1670 recognizes only one camera type at a time.

ThefollowingdefaultsettingsareassignedtocamerasthatareconnectedtotheSVR-1670.

Video input type, which is determined by the device that is connected to the lowest channel number. For

example, if there are ﬁve cameras connected to the SVR-1670 and the lowest channel number in use is

6, then the SVR-1670 will set the video input type to match the camera connected to channel 6.

· Terminal resistance, which the SVR-1670 automatically sets at 75Ω when one video input port is in

use. When a lower video input port is also connected, the SVR-1670 automatically separates the terminal

resistance between 75Ω and Hi-Z (high impedance).

About Video In and Out Connections

The SVR-1670 video input/output connections are “Loop through." Their connection status is detected

automatically to set terminal resistance.

For example, when only video input is connected, terminal resistance is set internally to 75Ω. When

video input and output are connected, terminal resistance is set to Hi-Z. This setting for input and output

connections sets the external output device to 75Ω for terminal resistance.

7.1. Setting up Network Communication

Before you enter settings on the Network submenu, you need to know the type of network connected

to the DVR. The type is either :

• Ethernet, if the DVR is connected to dedicated line, cable modem or LAN.

• xDSL, if the DVR is connected to a PPPoE-type xDSL line.

Setting Up for Ethernet

ThissectiondiscussestheoptionsavailableifyourNetworkTypeisEthernet.

Option Setting

Type

Ethernet is the correct type if the DVR is connected to dedicated line, cable modem

or LAN.

Digital Video Recorder User Guide

DHCP

Dynamic Host Conﬁguration Protocol (DHCP) manages host addresses on a

network. DHCP is used on a LAN with a DHCP server installed. If the LAN has a

DHCP server and you have enabled this DHCP option, the DHCP server will allocate

an IP address to the DVR.

IP Addr

IP Address is used for communication between the DVR and SVM-S1, and is also

used when Web Viewer accesses the DVR. It is available only when Net Mask and

Gateway are set.

Net Mask Net Mask speciﬁes a range of IP addresses and enables IP addresses in the range

to communicate. Net Mask should be allocated by a network administrator.

Gateway Gateway must be speciﬁed to enable IP addresses to communicate and should be

allocated by a network administrator.

DNS1 DNS1 must be speciﬁed to register the DVR to DDNS Server(www.samsungipolis.

com) while DNS Address should be allocated by a network administrator.

Additional DNS Additional DNS is used to replace DNS1 when it is unstable or has a problem.

Port Port is used to register to SWR, connect to SVM-S1, or connect to Web viewer. The

default port is 4000.

Bandwidth Limit

(Kbps)

Kbps sets the maximum transmission speed of data output from the DVR (the

data transmission capability of the DVR). This can be left blank. Ask your network

administrator to specify it when necessary.

Setting up for xDSL

ThissectiondiscussestheoptionsavailableifyourNetworkTypeisxDSL.

Type xDSL is the correct setting if the DVR is connected to a PPPoE-type xDSL line.

(If the xDSL line is not of the PPPoE type, you must select Ethernet.)

User ID Enter your User ID.

Password Enter your password.

Bandwidth Limit

7. 2. Registering with a DDNS Server

To make the DVR’s IP address easily identiable, your can register, with a DDNS server, a dynamic IP

address for the DVR. (Otherwise, the DVR has as a different IP address assigned every time it connects

to the ISP, making it difcult to determine the DVR's IP address.)

Device Select from various third-party devices, or select Manual.

Seek Header

By deﬁning a header here, the DVR can recognize from the header that it is the

start point of the data. Two headers can be set and detected because one device

can send various types of data to external receivers.

However, this parameter is needed to see how one unit of data out of continuously

incoming text data is structured. All data has its start and end points, and the

header is data that is always inserted to indicate the start point.

Header 1

and

Header 1

Use the onscreen keyboard to enter the text you want displayed for the headers.

Delimiter The delimiter value will differ depending on the device used. For more information

on delimiters, refer to the user manual or the device manufacturer.

Timeout (ms)

DelimiterLines deﬁned below are the maximum number of text lines available

for one piece of data. Even though data is standardized, lengths might differ.

For example, three lines are programmed for client name input for an ATM, but

if someone registers only his/her ﬁrst name and last name, only two lines are

provided when the person uses an ATM. However, the DVR cannot detect this

automatically, so Timeout is used to determine how long is needed to recognize the

received data as complete data after the last line is entered.

Lines Deﬁne the maximum number of lines for one piece of data.

External devices might not be recognized depending upon their particular features. Review

their product documentation or contact their manufacturer for information.
