1Installation
Precautions
The E-Series audio/video encoder is highly advanced surveillance equipment that should be installed with care. Please
consider the following precautionary steps before installing the encoder.
Keep all liquids away from the encoder.
Install the encoder in a well-ventilated and dust-free area.
Ensure environmental conditions meet factory specifications.
Installation Notes
During the installation of the encoder:
Use brackets for rack mounting.
Ensure there is ample room for audio and video cables.
When installing cables, ensure that the bend radius of each cable is no less than five times its
diameter.
Connect both the alarm and RS-485 cable.
Allow at least 2cm (0.75in) of space between rack-mounted devices.
Ensure the encoder is grounded.
Environmental temperature should be within the range of -10 ºC to 55 ºC (14ºF to 131ºF).
Environmental humidity should be within the range of 10% to 90%.
Check the power supply to avoid the damage caused by voltage mismatch.
Keep the device horizontal and avoid installing in an environment of severe vibration.
The dust board will cause a short circuit after damping. Use a brush to regularly remove dust
from the board, connector, and chassis fan.
Improper use or replacement of the battery may result in hazard of explosion. Replace with
the same or equivalent type only. Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions
provided by the battery manufacturer.

5Configuring Network Parameters
There are two ways an IP address can be assigned to the encoder:
If a DHCP server is available, an IP address will be assigned to the encoder automatically. You can then locate the
encoder in exacqVision using the Find IP Cameras feature (see section 6 of this document for more information).
If a DHCP server is not available, the encoder will default to a link-local address.
In either case, you can use the E-Series IP utility to find and configure the IP address and other network parameters.
Searching Online Devices
Click to run the IP utility. It automatically searches online devices every 15 seconds on the computer’s subnet. It
displays the total number of located devices in the Online Devices interface. Device information such as device type, IP
address, port number, and gateway are displayed.
Click to refresh the online device list manually. Any newly searched devices are added to the list. Devices can
be searched and displayed in the list within 15 seconds of connection, and they are removed from the list within 45
seconds after going offline.

Modifying Network Parameters
1. Select the device to be modified in the device list.
2. Network parameters of the selected device are displayed in the Modify Network Parameters panel. Edit the
modifiable network parameters as needed.
3. Enter the password of the admin account of the device in the Password field and click to save the
changes.
NOTE: To modify the network parameters of multiple devices simultaneously, select all the devices to be modified before
editing the parameters. The IP address entered is incremented by one for the additional selected devices; that is, if you
enter 10.13.6.43 for the first selected device, the next device will be assigned 10.13.6.44, and so on until each selected
device is assigned an address.
Restoring Default Password
It is recommended that you change the admin password. Default credentials for the encoder are as follows:
Username: admin
Password: admin256
If you need to restore the default password, contact technical support to obtain a security code. Enter the security code
and click OK.

6Connecting to an exacqVision System
NOTE: The latest version of exacqVision Client can be downloaded from https://exacq.com/support/downloads.php.
Initiating the Connection
To add the encoder to the exacqVision system using exacqVision Client, complete the following steps:
1. Open exacqVision Client and select the Config (Setup) page.
2. In the site tree, find the exacqVision server that the encoder will be associated with. Expand the server until you
can select Add IP Cameras.
3. Click Rescan Network to ensure all cameras and encoders are displayed in the Find IP Cameras list.
4. Locate the encoder in the Find IP Cameras list (4a). To narrow the list, type information about the encoder, such
as “E-Series” or the IP address, in the search box (4b).
5. Select the encoder entry in the list to display the encoder in the IP Camera Information section (5a). Enter the
username and password (5b), and then click Apply (5c).
NOTE: Alternatively, you can select Add (5d) next to the encoder’s entry, click Add Selected (5e), enter the
username and password of the encoder in the pop-up box, and click OK.
6. Verify that the encoder has been added to the IP Camera List.
7. Look at the Status column to ensure the encoder is detected and connected.

Verifying the Connection
To verify that the encoder is transmitting video and audio from its cameras to the exacqVision server, complete the
following steps:
1. Open the exacqVision Client live page.
2. Expand the server in the site tree.
3. Select an encoder/channel combination to display video from the camera in the playback window.
4. If audio is connected, drag an audio channel into the playback window to verify the audio connection and
transmission.
