Makito™ XH Encoder Installation Guide
This Installation Guide summarizes the basic steps required to install and configure the Makito XH Encoder (single
chassis, as shown below) to stream to your compatible decoding device. Please refer to the Makito X User’s Guide
or the online help (available from the Web Interface) for detailed information.
NOTE We recommend that you familiarize yourself with this Installation Guide before installing your
Makito XH in a remote location.
The Makito XH is a semi-ruggedized, industrial version of the
Makito X encoder, available in DVI, single and dual SDI input,
and dual output configurations. It is designed for fan-less
operation in harsh/hot environments, where it can survive
exposure to a limited range of temperatures and other
environmental factors (e.g. humidity, dust, etc).
The Makito XH is resistant to a limited amount of shock and vibration, and can tolerate variations in temperature
(from 0 to 70 °C), humidity (5% to 95%, non-condensing), and air pressure (from 300 to 1015 kPa). In all other
aspects (video/audio encoding, streaming, management, network/serial port and metadata control) the Makito
XH is identical to its non-ruggedized Makito X counterparts.
Applications
The Makito XH is suited for ISR activities in remote locations, where it should be mounted within an
environmental enclosure for additional protection. Typical applications include surveillance towers with security
cameras that can feed an SDI signal to Makito XH units, which encode the video and stream it to a remote
monitoring location.
NOTE While the Makito XH Encoder has a real-time clock (RTC), it has no RTC battery. In the event of a
power loss, the system date and time settings are lost. For any application with a requirement for stand-
alone synchronized system timing (or derived time codes), an NTP server should be used to provide time
and date synchronization. Refer to the Makito X User’s Guide for details.
