MAX-CSE Video Encoder

 

MAX-CSE Specifications (Cont.)

 

 

Supported Audio Codecs:

• MPEG Audio Level 2 (MP2)

 

• MPEG Audio Level 3 (MP3)

 

 

Front Panel Components:

 

• ID pushbutton:

Used to set the NetLinx ID (Device only) assignment and reset the unit to

 

factory defaults. Press and hold this button for at least 10 seconds to set

 

the unit back to its default settings.

• Status LED:

 

Green LED provides an indication of both the system status and communi-

 

cation status with the target Master.

 

1 blink every 5 seconds indicates there is currently active communication

 

between the CSE and a target Master.

• LCD Display:

 

Provides system information such as the currently used IP Address.

• IR Receiver:

 

Receives 38KHz AMX IR codes.

 

 

Rear Panel Connectors:

 

• COMPOSITE IN:

BNC connector (female) supports Composite Video Input (NTSC/PAL).

• 12VDC PWR:

 

2-pin 3.5mm mini-Phoenix (male) captive-wire connector for power from

 

an optional 12 VDC-compliant power supply (overrides POE).

S-VIDEO IN:

 

Mini-Din4 port for composite S-Video input.

ETHERNET 10/100:RJ-45 port provides 10/100 Mbps network communication and POE. LEDs show communication activity, connection status, speeds, and mode infor- mation:

SPD (speed) - Yellow LED lights On when the connection speed is 100 Mbps and turns Off when the speed is 10 Mbps.

L/A (link/activity) - Green LED lights On when the Ethernet cables are connected/terminated correctly, and then blinks when receiving Ethernet data packets.

 

This port automatically negotiates the connection speed (10 Mbps or 100

 

Mbps), and whether to use half or full duplex mode.

• AUDIO R/L:

 

• Two RCA connectors support line-level stereo input for analog stereo

 

signals.

RS-232/422/485:

 

9-pin (DB9) port supports RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 data output including:

 

300, 600, 1,200, 2,400, 4,800, 9,600, 19,200, 38,400, and 115,200 Baud

 

rates

 

• 8 or 9 Data bits

 

• 1 or 2 Stop bits

 

• Even, Odd, Mark, Space, and None parity settings

 

• CTS and RTS handshaking

 

• XON/XOFF handshaking

• MIC:

 

1/8” mini-stereo input jack.

• IR/Serial:

 

2-pin 3.5mm mini-Phoenix (male) captive-wire connector provides

 

IR/Serial control output by generating IR with the use of an IR Emitter

 

(while in IR mode).

 

This port supports high-frequency carriers of up to 1.142 MHz and can

 

also generate IR with no carrier frequency.
