Each piece of equipment includes its own operating instructions. These instructions should be used for specific operating information. Before You Begin 1. Unpack and inspect each piece of equipment. If any equipment appears damaged, contact your sales representative. 2. Locate the manuals for each piece of equipment. Manuals are included with each component. Keep these manuals for future reference. 3. Read through the instructions before installing any equipment. Understanding the steps before starting helps you identify any tools you might need. 4. Identify where each piece of equipment will be installed. Ensure that you have enough space for installing the equipment. 5. Make that you have enough electrical outlets to power the equipment. To protect your equipment, you may want to consider using a power strip with surge protection. 6. Perform any pre-installation steps that are needed. Mark the locations for each component. Install the lenses before mounting the cameras. Route cables before installing other equipment. 7. Determine how the cables will be routed between the cameras and the Multiplexer. Ensure that the cables do not cross sharp objects or are subject to possible damage. Consider using cable clamps or mounts to keep the cables securely in place. Sensormatic OF 6

2 Installation Overview The following illustrates the basic connections used with your video surveillance system. Figure 1. Video Surveillance System connections. Cameras Cameras use 24Vac power transformers. See Preparing Cameras.

3 Preparing Cameras These steps are provided for information only. For specific steps, use the instructions included with the cameras. 1. Mark the locations where the cameras will be mounted. Use the camera base to mark where holes will be drilled. 2. Drill holes for the camera base. Install the camera base. 3. Route the 100' video and power cables from the camera locations to the location where the multiplexer will be installed. 4. Remove the protective cover from the front of each camera. Install the lens. 5. Decide if the camera base will be installed as a wall mount or ceiling mount. Attach the base to the camera. Refer to the instructions included with the camera. 6. Connect the video cable to the Video port on the camera. IMPORTANT! Switches on the back of the camera have been preset for proper performance. 7. Connect the two-conductor power cable to the connector labeled 24VAC on back of camera. 8. Connect other end of the power cable to the power transformer terminals labeled AC. See Figure 2. Figure 2. Power Transformer. Connecting Cables to the Multiplexer These steps are provided for information only. For specific steps, use the information included with the Multiplexer. 1. Orient the multiplexer so that its rear panel is facing you. 2. Connect the video cables from the cameras to the ports labeled Cam 1 - Cam 4 In. 3. Connect one end of the monitor cable to the Multiplexer port labeled Main Mon. Connect the other end of the cable to the monitor port labeled Video In. 4. Connect the VCR cables. VCR In on the Multiplexer connects to Video Out on the VCR. VCR Out on the Multiplexer connects to Video In on the VCR. 5. Connect all power cables to electrical outlets. Power on each piece of equipment. You should see video from the cameras on the monitor. Refer to the information included with the equipment for additional setup information. Continue with Adjusting the Lenses. 9. Apply power to the cameras. Continue with Connecting Cables to the Multiplexer. 3 OF 6

4 Adjusting the Lenses Once all cables are connected to the video surveillance system, you may need to adjust the lenses on the cameras. Because the cameras are installed away from the monitor, you will need a second person to help with this job: one person to watch the monitor, and one person to adjust the lens. The variable focus lens provides three types of adjustments: Focus: Near (N) to Infinity ( ) Focal Length: Telephoto (T) to Wide Angle (W) Iris: Close to Open The following illustration identifies the locations of the adjustment rings on the lens. Figure 3. Lens adjustments. Focus Iris To adjust the lens settings: 1. Adjust the Focal Length. Turn the ring towards W (wide angle) to use a longer focal length. Turn the ring towards T (telephoto) to use a shorter focal length. 2. Adjust the Focus. Turn the ring towards N (near) to adjust the focus to close objects. Turn the ring towards (infinity) to adjust the focus to distant objects. 3. If the image seems too dark or too bright, adjust the Iris. Turn the ring towards Close to make the image appear dimmer (darker). Focal Length Turn the ring towards Open to make the image appear brighter (lighter). Troubleshooting Your video surveillance system includes a oneyear factory mail-in repair limited warranty. If you experience problems with your equipment, use these procedures to help identify the problem. If these procedures do not work, contact customer support at Note: The instructions included with the equipment may include additional troubleshooting steps. If you do not find the answer to your problem here, review the other instructions before contacting customer support. Video Does Not Appear on Monitor 1. Make sure that the monitor is plugged in and powered on. 2. Make sure that the monitor cable is connected to the Main Mon port on the Multiplexer and Video In port on the monitor. 3. Make sure that video cables from the cameras are securely connected to the Camera In ports on the Multiplexer and Video ports on the cameras. Refer to Figure 1 for wiring information. 4. Make sure that power has been applied to the cameras. A power light is located on the back of the camera. 5. If video appears from some cameras but not others, try switching cable connections. Unplug a camera that is working and plug in one that it is not working into the working Camera In port. If the camera works, there may be a problem with the original Camera In port. Try connecting a working camera into the suspected bad port. If this camera does not work, contact customer support for instructions. If the camera does not work, check the cable for damage. If the cable appears undamaged, verify that the power is connected and applied to the camera. If power is OK, you may have a bad camera. Contact customer 4 OF 6

5 VCR Recording 1. VCR is not recording. Make sure that the VCR is powered on, and a tape is in the VCR. Use standard T-160 VHS videotapes. Make sure recording tab is not missing on back of video tape. If the tab is missing, cover opening with a piece of tape, or replace with a new video tape. Open door on left front of VCR. Make sure the Remote Mode switch is set to OFF. Make sure that the "Live" light on the Multiplexer is lit. If the light is off, press the Live button to start record mode. Make sure that VCR cables are connected to the correct ports. Refer to Figure 1 for wiring information. Perform a test record to verify that the VCR is working properly. 2. VCR is recording only a single camera. The Multiplexer has been switched to one camera recording. To switch to all cameras recording, press the Function + Live buttons at the same time. 3. Video recording is corrupted (video from two cameras is displayed on top of each other, or a portion of the image is missing). Match the recording modes for the VCR and multiplexer (mux) using the following chart. If VCR is set to... Set Mux to... A6 hrs 2 hrs A12 hrs 6 hrs A18 hrs 2 hrs A24 hrs 12 hrs Use the instructions included with the VCR and Multiplexer to adjust these settings. VCR Playback 1. VCR does not playback tapes. Make sure that the VCR is powered on, and a tape is in the VCR. Make sure that VCR cables are connected to the correct ports. Refer to Figure 1 for wiring information. Then perform a test record and playback to make sure that the VCR is working properly. Open door on left front of VCR. Make sure the Remote Mode switch is set to OFF. Make sure that the "Tape" light on the front of the Multiplexer is lit. If the light is off, press the Tape button to switch the unit to playback mode. If the Live and Tape lights are on when you try to playback tapes, this may indicate that a power surge has occurred. Do the following: 1. On the Multiplexer, unplug power cable. 2. Press and hold Cam 9 button while plugging in power cable. 3. Reset VCR by inserting a pin or straightened paper clip in hole labeled All Clear on back of VCR. 2. Message "Missing Tape Input" appears when trying to playback video. This indicates that the Multiplexer is not receiving the signals from the VCR. Verify the video cables between the Multiplexer and VCR are not loose or missing. Refer to Figure 1 for wiring information. 5 OF 6
