5. System Modes and Connections
The VT-IPSD102H system operates in one of two modes: Encoder or Decoder. The VT-IPSD102H
system can be connected in either a ‘1-to-1’fashion, where one encoder is connected to one decoder,
or a ‘1-to-many’fashion, where one encoder is connected to many decoders.
The following chart shows possible combinations of video, audio and serial data transmission.

Therefore, the system modes are defined by the video communication and all system modes are
capable of bi-directional transmission of audio or serial data.
Topology
Generally, the encoder and the decoder are connected in a 1-to-1 mode. To support specific situations,
1-to-many connection is also supported.
1:1 Connection (Unidirection)
The most commonly used configuration is the 1 to 1 connection. An encoder is installed at a site
where video images can be transmitted and a decoder is installed at a center location to receive and
view the video images on analog monitor.Audio and serial data are transferred in either direction.
Encoder
Decoder
Site
Remote Center

1:N Connection (Unidirection)
In this configuration, a site can be monitored from many remote center locations. Although up to 64
decoders can be connected to on encoder, in the real network environment, network bandwidth can
limit the maximum connections.
Functionally, the VMS (Video Management System) software can replace the decoder.
Multicast Mode
In 1:N Connection, the network that supports multicasting, a large number of decoders, can receive
video efficiently from an encoder transmitting a single streaming of video and audio.
Relaying
In this arrangement, video and audio can be retransmitted from one center to another center. The
arrangement is useful when the network bandwidth to the site is limited while there is more than one
center wanting to monitor the site.

2. Installation
1. Connecting Video
Encoder System
-Connect the camera video output line to the encoder VT-IPSD102H video input port.
Decoder System
-Connect the monitor video input line to the decoder VT-IPSD102H video output port.
2. Connecting Audio
Audio is bi-directional in any configuration regardless of the system mode. If necessary, it can be
configured to be in transmit-only, receive -only or bi-directional mode.
-Connect audio input and output ports to audio devices accordingly.
-Audio signal is in line level, therefore, microphone or speaker with amplification function should
be used.
3. Connecting Serial Ports
For camera control, the PTZ controller (keyboard) and receiver can be connected to serial ports. Two
corresponding serial ports in encoder and decoder which are connected in 1-to-1 fashion works in
pass-through mode. This means that commands at a local system’s COM1 port will be transparently
passed to the remote system’s COM1 port. Also, a command at a local system COM2 port will pass to
the remote system’s COM2 port.
4. Connecting Sensor and Alarm
Connect sensor and alarm devices to corresponding terminals.
5. Connecting Power
After confirming the power source, connect power adaptor and connect the 12VDC connector to the
system.

6. Checking Operating
Once the power is supplied to the camera, it will start booting. The system will boot up to an operating
mode after approximately 40-60 seconds. The green LED on the Ethernet port will flash indicating the
system is ready.
Software provided on the disc called ENVI VMS allows you to check the IP address and other network
details of the camera.
Encoder LED Display
The above LED status display shows that neither camera or decoder are connected. Once the
encoder is connected to a decoder, the color of link LED will light in green and the LED will blink as
video or audio transmissions occur.
Decoder LED Display
The above LED status display shows that the encoder has started without connecting to an encoder.
Once an encoder is connected, the color of link LED will be changed to green and the LED will blink
as video or audio data transmissions occur.

2. Remote Video Monitoring
There are two ways to view the remote video when the connections are completed between a site and
center system. In order for a proper operation, an IP address must be set accordingly.
Video Monitoring with Decoder System
Once the encoder IP address is set in the remote IP address section of the decoder, the decoder
system will connect to the encoder system and start receiving the video images. Normally, a monitor
connected to the decoder will display video images.
Video Monitoring using Internet Explorer
If the VT-IPSD102H’s IP address is entered in Internet Explorer, the system will ask for confirmation to
install Active-X control. Once authorized, Internet Explorer will start to display video images from the
encoder as shown below.
Video Selection
If Primary is selected, Max. 720 x 480 (NTSC) or 704 x 756 (PAL) via H.264 compression
algorithm video can be displayed. And once activated Dual Video compression and Secondary
may be selected, H.264 or MJPEG compression algorithm video can be displayed in this case.

Sensor Input
When the sensor on the VT-IPSD102H is connected and working, the light turns red.
Alarm Output
Alarm Output button can trigger an event directly from the Live View page.
Snapshot
Snapshot button saves a snapshot of the video image currently on display. Captured picture
can be stored as BMP or a JPEG file.
Talk
Transfer audio to audio device connected to the VT-IPSD102H.
3. Initialization of IP Address
If a system IP address is lost, the system can be reset to a known IP address using the reset button in
the back side of the system:
While system is in operation, press the reset button for 5+ seconds.
The system will reboot automatically
Once the system has been rebooted, the IP address will be set to the following.
-IP mode: Fixed IP
-IP address: 192.168.10.100
-Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
-Gateway : 192.168.10.1
-Base port : 2222
-Http port : 80

4. Remote Configuration
1. Remote Configuration
The server can be configured using a web browser. Type the IP address of VT-IPSD102H in the
address input area of Internet Explorer, then a live viewing screen will be displayed. Press Setup
button located in the upper right area of the monitoring screen, then the server setup page will be
displayed.
The remote configuration window may be slightly different depending on the system modes (Encoder,
Decoder). The general explanation of the configuration in this manual is based on Encoder system
and differences according to the modes will be clarified when needed.
The configurations are grouped into 8 categories: System, Video, Audio, Network, Serial, Event,
Preset and User. No configuration changes are applied until Apply is pressed. Leaving the page
without pressing Apply will discard any changes.
2. Encoder Configuration
While most configuration items are common for Encoder, Decoder and Duplex mode, there are items
that are relevant to specific system mode. All the configuration items for Encoder mode were
explained first. Then, items specific only to Decoder and Duplex modes are described respectively.
Sections for Decoder and Duplex will not include items common for all modes.
