VideoJet X20 Installation en 21

SFP Slot

You can establish an additional network connection by inserting a mini-GBIC module into the SFP slot for example via fiber optic cables (OF).

CAUTION!

! Only laser class 1 transceivers are approved for use in the VideoJet X20. Use only approved modules.

Direct iSCSI Connection

You can connect the VideoJet X20 directly to an iSCSI system via one of the network interfaces. For ETH 1 or ETH 2 connections, use a UTP category 5 network cable with RJ45 plugs.

NOTICE!

i You can obtain a list of compatible iSCSI systems from your supplier or directly from Bosch Security Systems. This list is constantly being updated and extended.

CF Slot

You can insert a type I or II CompactFlash card into the Compact Flash slot to enable recordings to be saved locally. CF cards are the ideal solution for shorter storage times and temporary recordings, for example alarm recordings or local buffering in the event of network interruptions.

NOTICE!

i You can obtain a list of compatible CF cards from your supplier or directly from Bosch Security Systems. This list is constantly being updated and extended.

Playing back recordings is also possible using a different VideoJet X20, a VideoJet X10 or a VideoJet X40.

CAUTION!

!If the card is formatted, all existing data is deleted from the card.

You should therefore check whether the CF card contains any data that needs to be backed up before it is inserted.

1.Carefully slide the CF card, top side down, into the slot as far as it will go.

2.To remove the CF card, push the eject button to its right and then take out the card.

Data Interface

The bidirectional data interface is used to control units connected to the VideoJet X20, such as a dome camera with a motorized lens. The connection supports the RS-232, RS-422 and RS-485 transmission standards.

The VideoJet X20 offers the serial interface via the orange terminal block (see Section 8.8 Terminal Block, page 115).

The range of controllable equipment is expanding constantly. The manufacturers of the relevant equipment provide specific information on installation and control.

	CAUTION!
!	Please take note of the appropriate documentation when installing and operating the unit to
	be controlled.
	The documentation contains important safety instructions and information about permitted
	uses.
