2 Installing the Nextiva S1800e Series Encoder This section explains how to install a Nextiva S1800e series encoder on a desktop or flat surface and mount the encoder in a rack. NOTE: This equipment must be used in compliance with local laws and regulations. To install the Nextiva S1800e series encoder on a flat surface: 1. Remove any debris and dust from the surface as well as the surrounding area. 2. Place the encoder on the flat surface. 3. Ensure that you have access to both the front and rear of the encoder and that the fan airflow is not blocked. To install the Nextiva S1800e series encoder on a rack: 1. Align the rack-mount brackets with the holes on the side of the encoder. 2. Screw the rack-mount brackets to the encoder using 5 in-lb (0.56 N-m) force with the provided screws. 3. Slide the encoder into the 1U mounting space in the rack cabinet and ensure that the fan airflow is not blocked. 4. Secure the encoder to the rack cabinet using the screws supplied with the rack. 2

3 Connecting the Nextiva S1800e Series Encoder This section explains how to connect the video, network and power cables to the Nextiva S1800e series encoder. To connect the cables for video and network: 1. Plug the video cables from the analog cameras to the BNC connectors on the rear of the encoder. 2. Plug an ethernet cable into the LAN 1 network (RJ-45) connector on the front of the encoder. LAN 2 on the encoder is used by Verint support for debugging purposes. To connect the wiring for power: NOTE: You can use the PS1261 or any other certified power supply to connect to the Nextiva S1800e series encoder. If you plan on using a power supply other than the PS1261, ensure that it is certified with an output voltage rating of 12V DC and an output current rating of 1.8A up to 3A. The power wire gauge should be in the wire range of AWG in order to properly engage the terminal block plug. 1. Remove the terminal block plug from the rear of the encoder. 2. Verify the polarity of each wire from the power supply according to the attached label. 3. Connect the positive power wire in the corresponding +12V pole and the negative power wire in the corresponding pole on the terminal block plug and screw them into place using 1.7 in-lb (0.19 N-m) force. 4. Connect the terminal block plug to the on the rear of the encoder. 3

4 5. Connect the power supply to an outlet or UPS. 6. If required, connect the serial ports of the Nextiva S1800e encoder to the PTZ cameras. NOTE: If you are using the PS1282 power supply with a PDP10-2 power distribution panel, refer to the PDP10-2 Installation Guide that is shipped with the PDP10-2 to set up the power distribution panel. To connect the audio cable from a audio source for the S1808e-A and S1816e-A: 1. Plug the audio cable from an audio source such as a microphone to the audio/mic input connectors on the rear of the encoder. Obtaining the IP Address of the Nextiva S1800e Series Encoder By default, all Nextiva S1800e series encoders are DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) enabled. Use SConfigurator to obtain the IP address of the encoder. If you have a DHCP server, the encoder will automatically obtain a valid IP configuration. Otherwise, you need to manually enter a IP address. To obtain the IP address of the encoder: 1. Download the latest version of SConfigurator from: 2. Extract the executable file (SConfigurator.exe) to the desktop of the computer. 3. Start SConfigurator by double-clicking SConfigurator.exe on the desktop. 4. In the General tab, click Program Options. 4

5 5. Check Detect All Units on LAN. 6. Ensure that the VSIP Port is 5510; otherwise, click Default. 7. Ensure that the Discovery IP Address is ; otherwise, click Reset to Broadcast. 8. Click OK. 9. Select the Units tab, then click Discover. The information displayed for the Nextiva S1800e series encoder will vary depending on whether your network is using a DHCP server or not. In a DHCP environment, the Unit Name column in the Units box displays the model name and a unique alpha-numeric value that corresponds to the MAC address of the encoder. In APIPA mode, the Unit Name column in the Units box displays Unknown and the first two octets of the IP address in the Address column is Use the following procedure to set the IP address for the encoder. To set the IP address of the encoder manually: 1. Select the device in the Units box and click Configure. 2. In the Unit Name box, type a name for the encoder. 3. In the tree view, expand the Network node and click IP. 4. In the IP Address box, type an IP address for the encoder. 5. In the Subnet Mask box, type the address specifying in which subnet the IP address of the encoder belongs. 6. In the Gateway box, type the IP address of the server that acts as an access point to another network. NOTE: You do not need to use a gateway if the encoder communicates with other devices on the same subnet. 7. Click OK. 8. Click Exit to close SConfigurator. NOTE: Any configuration changes made to the encoder using Nextiva VMS will override the changes made using SConfigurator or the Web Interface. 5

6 Configuring Audio The S1808e-A and S1816e-A encoders supports audio. Use SConfigurator to set the audio settings. To configure the audio: 1. Double-click SConfigurator.exe to start SConfigurator. 2. Select the Units tab, then click Discover. 3. Select the S1808e-A or S1816e-A encoder and click Configure. 4. In the tree view, click the Audio node. 5. From the Sampling Rate list, select from 8 khz. 6. Expand the Audio node. 7. Select an Encoder to configure. Setting the H.264 Encoding Mode for the S1816e-SP The S1816e-SP supports H.264 and MPEG-4 video on all 16 ports and can be configured in dual or triple stream modes. By default, the S1816e-SP is set to dual stream mode consisting of a single high-performance H.264 stream and a single MPEG-4 stream per video input. However, you can set it to triple stream mode consisting of two H.264 streams with lower resolution and framerate and a single MPEG-4 stream per video input. To change the performance mode for the S1816e-SP: 1. Double-click SConfigurator.exe to start SConfigurator. 2. Select the Units tab, then click Discover. 3. Select the S1816e-SP encoder and click Configure. 8. Set the value for the following settings: Input Type: Select Line-in or Mic (with preamp). Input Compression: Select Uncompressed PCM (128 kbps). Gain State: Select Enabled or Disabled. Gain Level: Move the slider to the left or right. Bias State: Select Enabled or Disabled. Bias Level: Move the slider to the left or right. 9. Repeat Step 7 and Step 8 for the remaining Encoders. 10.Click OK. 11.Click Exit to close SConfigurator. 4. In the Unit Name box, from the Performance Mode list, select the H.264 streaming mode. You can select from: Single H.264: One H.264 stream and one MPEG-4 stream per video input. Dual H.264: Two H.264 streams with lower resolution and framerate and one MPEG-4 stream per video input 5. Click Reboot Unit for the change to take effect. 6. Click OK to close the Unit Configuration dialog box. 7. Click Exit to close SConfigurator. CAUTION: Once you have added the S1816e-SP to Nextiva VMS, changing the S1816e- SP's mode requires that you delete the device from Nextiva VMS and then use SConfigurator to change the mode; you will be required to add the device again in Nextiva VMS.
