CONNECTIONS

■Connection with the Camera Sites

Connect the data-multiplex type cameras (or camera site equipment) to the CAMERA IN connectors 1 to 16 on the matrix switcher's rear panel.

Notes:

•Make sure that the cable length is less than 900 m (3 000 ft) between the camera site and the unit when using RG-59/U, BELDEN 9259 or equivalent cables.

•If you use locally procured cables, it is important to use only a data-grade cable, which is suitable for RS-485 communication (shielded 2-wire twisted cable).

•When the cable length is extended, cable compensa- tion is available. (Refer to pp. 74 and 94.)

Connect non-multiplex type cameras to the CAMERA IN connectors 1 to 16. For cameras equipped with RS-485 communication facilities, connect the RS-485 cable as fol- lows.

Check the camera addresses when using RS-485 cameras. Operations from the system controller will be invalid if the camera addresses are set improperly.

•Use addresses from 1 to 16 for individual cameras.

•Do not set the same address for more than one camera in an RS-485 chain.

•Before connecting the RS-485 camera(s) to DATA 1, 2 and/or 3, configure the system through WJ-SX150A Administrator Console.
