5. System Connections
IPC-100 systems can be connected in either 1-to-1 fashion where one IPC-100 is
connected one PC client or decoder system or 1-to-many fashion where one IPC-100
connected to many PC and decoder systems. (IPE-3100 video server can work as a
decoder system which takes the data from a video server or IP camera, decodes and
outputs analog video.)
Topology
Generally, the IPC-100 and the PC & decoder are connected in 1-to-1 mode or 1-to-
many connection is also supported.

IPC Decoder

Mostly used configuration is 1 to 1 connection. An IPC-100 is installed at a site where

video images can be transmitted and a PC or 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.

Site
In this configuration, a site can be monitored from many remote center locations.
Although up to 64 PCs or decoders can be connected to on IPC-100, in the real network
environment, network bandwidth can limit the maximum connections.
Functionally, the central monitoring system software can replace the decoder.
Multicast Mode
Within the network that supports multicasting, a large number of decoders can be used
to receive video effectively from an IPC-100 using a single streaming of video and audio.
Relaying

Center 2
In this arrangement, video and audio can be retransmitted from a center to another
center. The arrangement is useful when the network bandwidth to the site is limited
while there are more than one center wanting to monitor the site.

CMS
CMS (Central Monitoring System) is a Windows based remote monitoring program to
access multiple IPC-100 for real-time monitoring or control of the encoders and
connected cameras. Please refer to CMS User Manual for more information on CMS.
2. Installation
1. Connecting Network (LAN)
Connect LAN and there is a Video output to check video quality.
2. Connecting Audio
Audio is bi-directional in any configuration. If necessary, it can be configured to be in
transmit-only, receive -only or bi-directional mode.
-8-

IPC-100 User Manual
- 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
The serial port (RS-485) in IPC-100 can be connected to external equipment such as
PTZ receiver etc. Then, PC client can send PTZ commands to the external equipment
via serial port. When a decoder system instead of PC client is connected to IPC-100,
the serial port of IPC-100 and that of the decoder system works in pass-through mode.
That is, data at one port are delivered to the other port, vice versa.
4. Connecting Sensor and Alarm
Connect sensor and alarm devices to corresponding terminals accordingly.
5. Connecting Power
After confirming the power source, connect power adaptor and connect the 12VDC
connector to the system. Soon the system will boot up to an operating mode.
6. Check if It Works
As soon as the power is supplied to the system, it will boot and, after about 30 seconds,
the system will be ready for operation.
3. System Operation
1. Remote Video Monitoring
There are two ways to view the video once connections are made between the site and
center system. In order for a proper operation, an IP address must be set accordingly
and please refer to IP Manager in Chapter 4 or Remote Setting in Chapter 5 for a
further details.

Video Monitoring with Decoder System
Once the IPC-100 IP address is set in the remote IP address section of the decoder, the
decoder system will connect to the IPC-100 and start receiving the video images.
Normally, a monitor connected to the decoder will display video images.
Video Monitoring using Internet Explorer
If an encoder’s IP address in entered on the Internet Explorer, the system will ask for
confirmation to install Active-X control. Once authorized, the Internet Explorer will start
to display video images from the encoder as shown below.
http://192.168.10.100
2. 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:
cWhile system is in operation, press the reset button more than 5 seconds.
dThe system will reboot automatically
eOnce the system has been rebooted, IP address will be set to the following.
-IP mode: Fixed IP

4. Remote Configuration
1. Using Internet Explorer
The server can be configured using web browser. Type IP address of IPC-100 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 se
page for server setup will be displayed.
cEnter IP address
dPress Setup button
The configurations are grouped into 8 categories: System, Video, Audio, Network,
