ZVR-130
ZVR-130 Overview
The ZoneVu ZVR-130 telemetry receiver is a composite assemblycomprising four PCBs:
P104 PCB Microprocessor board
P114 PCB Motherboard
The P104 board contains the CPU, ROM and RAM circuitry. It is a SMD multi-layer PCB.
The P114 is the Motherboard. It contains the power circuitry, glue logic, serial communications ports, alarm processing
circuitry and various relays for camera auxiliary functions. The P104 plugs into the P114 and secures with screws.
The whole ZVR-130 assembly is mounted onto an aluminium bracket.The bracket serves three purposes:
1. The easy to install bracket incorporates universal mountings allowing it to be mounted either horizontally or vertically.
2. It acts as a heat sink for the various PSU components. It also provides an earth bonding point.
3. Provides mechanical rigidityfor the ZVR-130 assembly.

ZVR-130
Telemetry Data Network
The ZoneVu telemetry data network can be either RS422 (4 wire) or RS485 (2 wire) and either Simplex or Half-Duplex.
Depending on which type of network you have or intend to have will determine how the receivers will be connected. For an
RS485 network, the receivers MUST be wired in a ‘daisy-chain’ fashion to preserve the characteristics of the RS485 network.
RS422 is generally more tolerant and in some circumstances can be either ‘daisy-chain’ or ‘star’ wired.
Correct Termination of the data line is also very important to prevent ‘standing waves’ and reflection:
1. For RS422 daisy chain connection, terminate the last ZVR-130 RX input on the line into 120R.
2. For RS485 daisy-chain connection, terminate the last ZVR-130 RX input on the line into 120R.
3. For RS422 star connection, terminate all ZVR-130 RX input’s on the line into 120R x the number of receivers
connected EG for 10 receivers terminate each one into 1K2 and ensure the on-board ZVR-130 termination is
switched off on all receivers.
Note the ZVR-130 has an on board 120R termination resistor which can be remotely switched on or off.
The ZoneVu equipment driving the telemetry network will be one of the following models:
ZVM-164 which can drive up to 16 ZVR-130’s RS422 simplex only
ZVM-328 which can drive up to 32 ZVR-130’s RS422 simplex only
ZSC-500 which can drive up to 128 ZVR-130’s RS422 simplex/half duplex RS485 half duplex
ZSC-1000 which can drive up to 256 ZVR-130’s RS422 simplex/half duplex RS485 half duplex
ZVS-MSI-48 which can drive up to 192 ZVR-130’s RS422 simplex/half duplex RS485 half duplex
ZVK-007 which can drive up to 64 ZVR-130’s RS422 simplex only
ZVK-77D which can drive up to 64 ZVR-130’s RS422 simplex only
It should be remembered at this point exactly how important the network cabling is to the overall performance of any system
and, indeed to the quoted performance of any particular piece of equipment connected to the network, including telemetry
receivers. Care should therefore be taken to plan cabling routes properly and the use of the correct type of data cable is
imperative. Meyertech recommend:
RS422 / RS485 - Beldon 1-pair 9841, 2-pair 9502, 1-pair 8761 or equivalent
A common misconception with RS422 and RS485 networks is that no 0V connection is required between the transmitting
equipment and the receiving equipment, and that only the data pair is required! Well actually this WILL work on your bench,
but when you come to install it in the field it may or maynot work. The reason for this is basic electrical principles. It will work
on the bench because the earth potential difference will be within that specified by the IC manufacturers. In the field it may
well be outside the specification, all be it intermittently. Any electrical circuit requires a ‘return-path’ to work. On the bench this
is achieved via the mains earth circuit. In the field there maybe a potential difference between the two earth points of 50 volts
or more, which is well outside the IC specification for it to function correctly. Normally the outer screen of the data cable can
be used as the 0VDC cable but in noisier environments it is important to use a separate cable even If it means a third pair. In
this instance the outer shield should be connected to ‘dirty’ earth at one end only!
VICTA-ZoneVu ‘down the coax’ telemetry, is not directly supported by the ZVR-130. If you want to be able to control the
ZVR-130 via VICTA (which may be the case if you are using a ZVM-328 matrix) you will require a ZVD-V42-ZV VICTA to
RS422 ZoneVu driver module, which should be located at the receiver end. Note. When controlling the ZVR-130 via VICTA
certain advanced feature and functionalitywill not be available EG alarm reporting, camera configuration ETC.

Turnaround time
The ZVR-130 has a data turnaround time of approximately 1ms
Camera Head Pre-assembly and Testing
It is important to consider the time and expense that can be saved by pre-assembling and testing the ZVR-130 prior to
installation on-site. Pre-assemblynormallyinvolves the following tasks (in no particular order):
1. Fixing the camera and lens into the camera housing.
2. Fixing the ZVR-130 into the camera housing.
3. Producing the wiring harness for the ZVR-130, auxiliary devices (e.g. wiper, heater or lamps) and Camera.
4. Initial self test
5. Network configuration and testing
Installation
The ZVR-130-PCB has been designed to be installed within the camera housing. There are a number of technical and non-
technical reasons for this. Firstly from a performance perspective it is important to understand that the best performance of
the receiver is achieved when it is located as close as possible to the camera. The reasoning behind this is that the further
away the ZVR-130 is located E.G. in a weatherproof box tens of meters away, the longer the cable needed to connect back
to the camera functions. Long cable runs will introduce potential differences and noise, both of which will affect performance.
Secondlythe temperature and humidity are controlled inside a camera housing which is a good environment for the ZVR-130
to live in. Thirdly the appearance of the complete camera head assembly is cleaner and more aesthetically pleasing. Finally it
willsave you money! Meyertech therefore strongly recommend installing the ZVR-130 inside the camera housing.
Installing the ZVR-130 is straightforward due to the universal mounting bracket it is attached to. A template for the universal
bracket can be found towards the end of the manual.
If the ZVR-130 is installed inside a weatherproof box the cabling to the ZVR-130 MUST be segregated according to their
function E.G. you would not want to mix mains with the communications cabling. The correct type of cables should also be
chosen according to function EG you would a coax cable for the video. Never be tempted to run all the functions in a
multicore cable. To help wire the ZVR-130 use the connection diagram provided with this manual.
The ZVR-130 should be powered from 24VAC 50Hz +/-10%. Meyertech can supply, a suitable toroidal transformer, Part
number ZVR-130-PSU, or from a 12Vdc, 600mA supply. Note that the 12Vdc output is not available unless AC input is used.
Once all the cabling has been connected to the ZVR-130 and camera it can be tested using the self-test which allows the
receiver to be exercised without the need for it to be connected to a ZoneVu controller.
To do this simply plug a monitor into the video output of the receiver and press the self-test button once to activate the
Installation Menu.

Test Facilities
From the Test Facilities menu you can manually test the two relays, the display or the communications.
Selecting Relays will display a menu similar to the one shown below.
To exercise each function manuallycycle through the menu until the
option you require is flashing. Now select the function. The ZVR-130
will toggle the function once.
Selecting Communications will display a further menu with the option to select Network port or SIP port.
Before selecting the port to test, you should bridge the Receive & Transmit together for that port.
When started the receiver performs a short loopback test on the selected port.
If the test data is correctly received a ‘PASSED’ message is displayed, else the receiver shows ‘FAILED’.
Press the button to return to the Communications test menu.
Before the ZVR-130 can be connected to a ZoneVu controller (see Telemetry Data Network) some basic network
configuration needs to be carried out. The simplest wayto do this is on the bench with a monitor connected the video output
of the ZVR-130.
Navigation of the menus using the self-test button is easily
achieved by following these simple guidelines
Press and release the button once to display the Installation Menu.
To cycle down the menu press and release the button again.
To select a menu option press and hold down the button for a
second before releasing it.
To exit a menu or complete a setting, cycle through the menu until FINISH starts flashing.
Now press and hold down the button for 1sec before releasing it.

Setting the Address
As with all equipment which communicates over a network, ZVR-130 requires a unique network address. The valid address
range for the ZVR-130 is 1 to 4096. To set the address, first highlight and select the Address option in the Installation Menu.
Once selected the current address is re-displayed as a 4-digit number,
with the first digit flashing.
To change the first digit, press the button repeatedly until the correct
number is displayed.
To move onto the next digit, press and hold the button down for 1 second.
After the last digit has been changed, press and hold the button down for
1 second to return to the installation menu. The address is set
immediately.
If you make a mistake, simply repeat the procedure.
Network Settings
The network settings of the ZVR-130 can be configured to interface to different types of data transmission network. Both the
network type and BAUD rate can be altered here. Navigate the menu as previously to select and configure each setting.
The MODE can be set to either RS485, which requires a single
half-duplex data link or to RS422 which requires a full-duplex
data link with a separate transmit and receive channel.
The Baud rate can be manually set to either 9600, 19200 or 38400
Baud. Alternatively the Baud rate can be set to auto for Meyertech
equipment which supports auto selection. With this option set the
ZVR-130 auto detects the Baud rate.
The ZVR-130 incorporates on-board termination to terminate the data
line when the network is either daisy chained or a single receiver is
connected to a driver.
The menu displays the current position of the termination link on the
PCB. It is not possible to change this setting in the menu.

Setting the camera interface
The ZVR-130 supports a serial interface to specified camera types.
To configure this interface, select the Serial Camera menu.
The range of cameras supported is constantly under development.
Details of currently supported models and features supported can be
found in the Meyertech document ZVR-x30 Supported Cameras
or by contacting the Meyertech sales department.
To select the protocol you require, press the button until you reach
the line “Camera type” then press and hold the button. You will now
be able to cycle through the supported cameras. Once you have
selected the desired interface, press and hold the self test button to
save.
The communications type is defaulted to the normal format for the interface. E.g. Panasonic support an RS485 (2-wire)
interface and JVC support an RS422 (4-wire) interface.
It is possible to change between 2-wire and
4-wire formats, by changing the “Mode”
option.
Load Factory Defaults
If you become unsure of the current configuration then the
should onlybe done as ZVR-130 can be restored to it’s factory settings. This should only
be done as a last resort though because ALL previously
configured data will be lost. IE factorydefaults will be restored
including the address.
To load factory defaults select Confirm, otherwise select Cancel
to return to the Installation Menu.
LOAD FACTORY DEFAULTS

When you use the self-test button to load
factory defaults, ALL configured data is lost,
including the receiver address.
When you load factory defaults over the network, IE
when the ZVR-130 is connected to a ZoneVu
network the receiver address is not restored to its
default value. This may save you a trip out to the
receiver site!

Using the Numeric keypad of your keyboard enter the PIN
for that particular receiver. Failure to enter the correct PIN will
result in the error message ‘Access Denied’ being displayed.
If the ZVR-130 Configuration Protection feature is disabled the firstmenu you will see is the Main Menu.
Main Menu
The first menu you will see once you have successfully logged in is the Main Menu (shown below). From this menu you can
access the rich arrayof features the ZVR-130 has to offer.Whenever you configure an option the ZVR-130 internal database
is updated and the change takes effect immediately. All configuration data is stored in what is commonly referred to as non-
volatile memory, which simply means that when power to the ZVR-130 is removed the configuration data is not lost. Typically
configured data in the ZVR-130 can be retained for up to ten years without loss!
The latest generation of ZoneVu ZSC products allow the full ZVR-130 database to be downloaded to a PC using Mpower, a
PC application which allows you to configure, backup and restore ZoneVu system data. Once downloaded the database can
be archived for future use by service and maintenance personnel.
Each option shown in the Main Menu will have a number of sub-menus associated with it. The number of sub-menus will
depend on the complexity of the feature to be configured. You can exit ZVR-130 configuration from any menu, you do not
have to return to the Main menu.

Alarm Setup Menu
Provided as standard on the ZVR-130 are two contact type alarm inputs, a dedicated Tamper contact type alarm input and a
video fail alarm, which automatically detects the loss of video from the camera.
Alarm inputs can be independentlyconfigured to trigger on contact closure or contact opening. Each alarm input can also be
disabled to eliminate false alarms when work is being carried out in the alarmed area. When an alarm occurs the
programmed alarm caption is displayed on screen. If more than one alarm is active at any one time the OSD cycles between
the alarm captions displaying each one in turn for a period of time.
Alarms can be managed centrally when the ZVR-130 is connected to a ZSC-500 or ZSC-1000 ZoneVu Site Controller. For
example certain alarm inputs mayrequire the action of another camera to provide full coverage of the incident. In this
instance the ZSC-XXXX would be configured to request alarm status from the camera on a regular basis. Upon receipt of the
alarm the ZSC-XXXX could instruct a PT camera to recall a preset or execute a patrol to monitor the area in alarm.

Tamper, Alarm 1, Alarm 2 and Video Loss.

Trigger Time - The Trigger Time parameter is used to reduce the number of false alarms due to ‘contact bounce’ from the
alarm source. The trigger time is important as it validates the alarm source. After the alarm is initially
triggered the source is checked again after the Trigger Time. If the alarm is STILL triggered after the Trigger
time has elapsed the alarm is accepted as a valid alarm. To set the Trigger Time select Trigger Time and
enter a time period in the range of 10 to 990ms.
Text - Each alarm input can be programmed with its own unique text label (14 characters maximum)
