Chapter 1 Introduction
52WS/4 net video server adopts embedded Linux operation system (RTOS) and TI DaVinci processor
that is completely independent of PC platform, and efficiently improves system performance. Firmware
is burned into the FLASH, making the system more steady and reliable.
52WS/4net video server has the function of compressing the video signal and audio signal simultane-
ously into H.264 compression standard; transmitting the compression stream through network; real-
time video and audio preview; supporting stream protocol (RTP/RTCP, RTSP), IE browser, bi-directional
voice talk and multilingual etc.
Notes:
DS-6104HCI: 4 channels video inputs and 4 channels audio inputs. All channels can support CIF reso-
lution real time (25FPS for PAL or 30FPS for NTSC).
1.1 52WS/4 functions and features
Basic Function:
1. High speed & high compression ratio of H.264 video hardware real-time compression;
2. Multiple security level leads to high system safety;
3. Support one RS-485 interface that can be used for controlling pan-tilt-zoom and translucent chan-
nel input.
Compression Function 1. Support four channels video (PAL/NTSC) signal, and can be real-time
hardware compressed in 25F/S (PAL) or 30F/S (NTSC) CIF resolutions independently. Video is com-
pressed with H.264 standard, and it supports not only variable bit rate but also variable frame rate.
When choosing video image quality, you can also limit the bit rate of the compression code.
2. Support changeable OSD position, the date and time can be added automatically.
3. Support LOGO, the position is changeable in the video image.

2. Support TCP/IP protocols; support video, audio, alarm, voice data, serial device data transmission
through TCP/IP network; build-in WEB browser, support IE access.
3. Support pan-tilt-zoom control such as PTZ, iris and focus;
4. Support remote upgrading and maintenance;
5. RS-485 interfaces support transparent transmission mode, and remote hosts can control serial de-
vices through it;
1.2 Common application

2.3 The pin definition of physics interfaces
2.3.1 PIN definition of RS-232 serial interface
The DVS has one RS232 standard serial interface, with RJ-45 connector. Its pin definition is as follows
(‘I’ means input, and ‘O’ means output):
(1) When the RS232 interface of the DVS connects with the DTE equipment, one end of the cable is the
8-pin RJ45 connector (to DVS) and the other of the cable is the DB25 female connector (to DTE). Below
is the description of the internal connection between RJ45 and DB25.

(3) If you don’t want to use 25-pin to 9-pin convertor to connect DVS and DTE through RS232 interface,
you must use RJ45-DB9 cable. Its internal connection description is:
(4) When the RS232 interface of the DVS connects with the DCE (such as MODEM), one end of the
cable is the 8-pin RJ45 connector and the other is the DB25 male connector. Below is the description
of the internal connection between RJ45 and DB25:

Chapter 3 Configuration via Web browser
Before visit the camera via web browser, user should adjust security level. Open the web browser, and
enter the menu “Tool/ internet option/Security/Custom level”, then set the security level to Security
Level - Low, or enable ActiveX Control and the Plug-in directly. Figure 3.2.1 gives you a visual illustra-
tion. After you can see the camera video, recover the security level for security.
1, Failure to control PTZ
It is possible that the camera and equipment are not connected through RS485 port, or the wrong con-
figuration of the decoder.
2, Certain individual channel picture is un-normal
Please check whether the video cable is well connected with the camera and the Embedded DVS
3, Possible reasons which can cause the failure of upgrading
Failure of the network, IP address error in the FTP host computer, FTP service is not been booted by
PC, the path to upgrade is incorrect; no permission (usually happened when to upgrade through
client-end.)
If the above information cannot meet your demand, please not hesitate to contact the provider.

The default IP of the camera is 192.0.0.64 with 8000 as the default port, admin as the administrator, and
12345 as the password. The administrator can create up to 15 separate operators with different right le-
vels.
To login the camera through IE, input the IP address in the address column, and the “Login” dialog box
will pop-up as Fig. 3.2.2. Input your user name and password, and then click “Login” to enter the “pre-
view” page. Double click the “Camera 01” channel or “Preview” button to preview the video as Figure
3.2.3. Right click the “Camera 01” channel, and the “Main Stream”, “Sub Stream” and “Open sound”
options will popup. Select the Open sound option if you connect a pickup to the camera.
For detailed instructions of further configuration, please refer to the user manual of network
camera V.2.00.

Directive 2002/96/EC (WEEE)
The crossed-out wheelie bin symbol marked on the product indicates that at the end of its useful life, the pro-
duct must be handled separately from household refuse and must therefore be assigned to a differentiated
collection centre for electrical and electronic equipment or returned to the dealer upon purchase of a new,
equivalent item of equipment.
The user is responsible for assigning the equipment, at the end of its life, to the appropriate collection facilities.
Suitable differentiated collection, for the purpose of subsequent recycling of decommissioned equipment and environ-
mentally compatible treatment and disposal, helps prevent potential negative effects on health and the environment
and promotes the recycling of the materials of which the product is made. For further details regarding the collection
systems available, contact your local waste disposal service or the shop from which the equipment was purchased.
Risks connected to substances considered as dangerous (WEEE).
According to the WEEE Directive, substances since long usually used on electric and electronic appliances are consi-
dered dangerous for people and the environment. The adequate differentiated collection for the subsequent dispatch of
the appliance for the recycling, treatment and dismantling (compatible with the environment) help to avoid possible ne-
gative effects on the environment and health and promote the recycling of material with which the product is compound.
