ZVR-530
ZVR-530 Overview
The ZoneVu ZVR-530 telemetryreceiver is a composite assemblycomprising four PCBs:
P104 PCB Microprocessor board
P105 PCB Video processor board
P106 PCB Head and lens driver board
P107 PCB Motherboard
The P104 board contains the CPU, ROM and RAM circuitry. It is a SMD multi-layer PCB.
The P105 is the video processing circuit and is responsible for providing features such as OSD, privacy zones, dynamic text
and configuration menus. The camera video fail alarm is also monitored here.
The P106 drives the Pan and Tilt head and lens functions, Zoom, Focus and Iris. All drives provide full independent variable
speed control with the exception of the Iris function, which is dual speed. The P106 also provides control of the Iris
auto/manual facility.
P107 is the Motherboard. It contains the power circuitry, glue logic, serial communications ports, alarm processing circuitry
and various relays for camera auxiliary functions such as Wipe. The three PCBs plug into the P107 and secure with screws.
The whole ZVR-530 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 horizontallyor 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-530 assembly.
Telemetry Data Network
The ZoneVu telemetry data network can be either RS422 or RS485 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
WARNING: Do not short the outputs of the function drivers. This will result in damage to
the particular driver IC. Also ensure that braked heads are wired in polarity phase with the
output drives.
If you are in any doubt regarding Head and Lens connections, contact our support staff on
[phone]

ZVR-530
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-530 RX input on the line into 120R.
2. For RS485 daisy-chain connection, terminate the last ZVR-530 RX input on the line into 120R.
3. For RS422 star connection, terminate all ZVR-530 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-530 termination is
switched off on all receivers.
Note the ZVR-530 has an on board 120R termination resistor which can be remotelyswitched on or off.
The ZoneVu equipment driving the telemetrynetwork will be one of the following models:
ZVM-164 which can drive up to 16 ZVR-530’s RS422 simplex only
ZVM-328 which can drive up to 32 ZVR-530’s RS422 simplex only
ZSC-500 which can drive up to 128 ZVR-530’s RS422 simplex/half duplex RS485 half duplex
ZSC-1000 which can drive up to 256 ZVR-530’s RS422 simplex/half duplex RS485 half duplex
ZVS-MSI-48 which can drive up to 192 ZVR-530’s RS422 simplex/half duplex RS485 half duplex
ZVK-007 which can drive up to 64 ZVR-530’s RS422 simplex only
ZVK-77D which can drive up to 64 ZVR-530’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 may not 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-530. If you want to be able to control the
ZVR-530 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-530 via VICTA
certain advanced feature and functionality will not be available EG alarm reporting, camera configuration ETC.
Turnaround time
The ZVR-530 has a data turnaround time of approximately 1ms.

ZVR-530
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-530, pan and tilt
head, lens and camera prior to installation on-site. Pre-assemblynormally involves the following tasks (in no particular order):
1. Fixing the camera and lens into the camera housing.
2. Fixing the ZVR-530 into the camera housing.
3. Fixing the camera housing onto a DC pan & tilt head.
4. Producing the wiring harness for the ZVR-530, P&T head, Camera and lens.
5. Initial self test
6. Network configuration and testing
7. Advanced features configuration
Installation
The ZVR-530-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, lens and pan and tilt head. The reasoning
behind this is that the further awaythe ZVR-530 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-530 to live in. Thirdly the appearance of the complete camera head assembly is cleaner and more
aesthetically pleasing. Finally it will save you money! Meyertech therefore strongly recommend installing the ZVR-530 inside
the camera housing.
Installing the ZVR-530 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-530 is installed inside a weatherproof box the cabling to the ZVR-530 MUST be segregated according to their
function E.G. you would not want to mix mains with the head feedback cabling. The correct type of cables should also be
chosen according to function EG you would choose a screened cable for head feedback functions and similarly a coax cable
for the video. Never be tempted to run all the functions in a multicore cable. To help wire the ZVR-530 use the connection
diagram provided with this manual.
Power
The ZVR-530 should be powered from 24VAC 50Hz +/-10%. Meyertech can supply, a suitable toroidal transformer, Part
number ZVR-530-PSU.
The power circuitry of the ZVR-530 is designed to withstand short power dips of up to 500ms (dependant on loading) without
interruption to it’s normal operation. If interruptions of 100% to the input power occur (i.e. not short power-dips), a full ordered
power cycle is required to ensure correct operation. A full power cycle must include a minimum of 3 seconds with the power
disconnected to allow the circuits to discharge.

Network Settings
The network settings of the ZVR-530 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 single half-duplex
data link but with a separate transmit and receive channel.
The Baud rate can be manually set to either 2400, 4800, 9600,
19200 or38400 Baud. Alternatively the Baudrate can be set to
auto for Meyertech equipment which supports auto selection.
With this option set the ZVR-530 auto detects the Baud rate.
The ZVR-530 incorporates on-board termination to terminate the data
line when the network is either daisychained or a single receiver is
connected to a driver.
Network Protocol
The ZVR-530 can use five different Network protocols; these are ZoneVu, Old ZoneVu, Pelco P, Pelco D and Forward Vision
(subject to change). Please refer to “ZVR-530 Supported Receiver Protocols” for further information.
Selecting the Serial Camera Interface
The ZVR-530 supports a serial interface to specified camera types.
The ZVR-530 firmware contains all the drivers for supported cameras, however as the electrical interface to cameras differs,
this must be specified at time of order:
1. RS422/485
2. RS232
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-530 Supported Cameras.
To setup the serial camera interface, select the Serial Camera option. You will see the following menu.
Selecting the camera type will cycle through all available types. The
Mode is automatically updated to show the default for the selected
camera.
The Mode option can be selected to change the default mode :
RS422, RS485 or RS232. This option does not take account of the

If the ZVR-530 Configuration Protection feature has been enabled you will see the menu below which asks you to enter a
PIN. This feature protects the ZVR-530 from any unauthorised configuration.
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-530 Configuration Protection feature is disabled the first menu 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-530 has to offer.Whenever you configure an option the ZVR-530 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-530 is removed the configuration data is not lost. Typically
configured data in the ZVR-530 can be retained for up to ten years without loss!
The latest generation of ZoneVu ZSC products allow the full ZVR-530 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-530 configuration from any menu, you do not
have to return to the Main menu.

Edit Caption
A descriptive caption can be programmed into the ZVR-530 which is displayed at all times. The caption provides unique
identification of the camera signal anywhere in the system. Another benefit of labelling the camera ‘at source’ is the caption is
not susceptible to interference (often seen on the screen as tearing or bouncing captions) due to long cable runs and
transmission paths.
The caption can be up to 14 characters long. When you enter
the Edit Caption menu a cursor will be flashing at the end of the

Clear button on the keyboard.

Each caption type can be switched On or Off using the Display option.
For example to stop the receiver showing confirmations of any
commands received, switch the Command Display to Off.
To position a caption on the screen first choose left or right Alignment.
Using right alignment on the right side of the display and left on the left
will help keep the centre of the screen clear of text.
Switching on the Background option displays the text on a shaded
block.This helps it to stand out over a variety of scenes.
Selecting Set Position will display the menu shown on the right.
Using the navigation keys Up, Down, Left and Right the text
position can be moved to any part of the screen.
There are 16 rows and 35 columns available.
The flashing letter shows where the text is aligned to.
Note that text is never split across lines. So positioning right aligned
text towards the left of the screen or left aligned text towards the
right will result in the position being adjusted to prevent wrapping.
The installer should take care to leave enough space between each
type of text to accommodate the maximum length of 14 characters.
Once the text is in the correct position use the Last Menu keyor
Cancel key to return.
