Safety warnings
To avoid any damage, please consider the following safety warnings:
Never place the recorder near to heaters, furnaces, other heat sources or under
direct solar irradiation.
Operate the device only in locations providing the tolerable operating temperature
range 0°C~40°C.
Make sure that the device‘s ventilation slots are not covered or sheeted.
For cleaning, make sure the device is plugged off and only use a damp cloth without
acid detergent.
Install the device only in dry and dustproof surroundings. Protect the device against
any liquid‘s penetration.
Avoid the penetration of any artefacts, e.g. through ventilation slots.
Do not open the recorder yourself. In case of malfunction, contact your local installer
or dealer. Unauthorized opening of the device will annul the warranty claim!
Avoid any affection of the device through vibrations or mechanical shock at the
recorder‘s installation location.
Never remove harddisks during playback or recording operation.

ATTENTION: The installation should be effected by qualified personnel only.
Connect power source only after having finished the further installation.
2.1 Delivery scope
2. INSTALLATION
Check the delivery scope (see 4.) before starting the installation.
2.2 Video connection installation, DVR cascading
15
Sample installation with maximum camera and monitor configuration:
Cameras and monitors have to be cabled with 75 Ohm video cable, e.g. RG-59, RG-12 and
suitable BNC plugs.
Due to inappropriate absorbability, 50 Ohm coax cable (e.g. RG58), antenna cable and
further types of coax cable are not suitable.
All connected video sources must provide a 1 Vpp PAL/CCIR standard video signal.
When interconnecting transmission lines (twisted pair, fibre optics, radio) to the video inputs,
ensure the accurate receiver calibration.
The MAIN monitor may optionally be connected through a Y-C (S-Video) cable to achieve an
improved image quality.
For local DVR operation, MAIN monitor connection is compulsory. Call and matrix monitors
can be connected optionally.
ATTENTION: Make sure that there‘s a video signal on video input 1 upon start-up, as this
input is required for video system auto detection (PAL/NTSC)!
DVR cascading
The digital video recorders provide "CASCADE IN" and "CASCADE OUT" video connections.
In combination with RS-485 remote control, up to 8 EDR920/1640 can be cascaded and
administrated via one single main monitor. Cascading is effected by connecting the DVRs
„CASCADE OUT“ to the „CASCADE IN“ of the following DVR, while the last „CASCADE OUT“ is
connected to the monitor input.
By means of the RS-485 address sent from the keyboard, the respective DVR is switched on
the monitor.
This function is available for main monitor only.
Installation with 3 cascaded EDR and EKB-500
16
2.3 Audio connection installation
Sample installation with audio connection to video cameras providing audio output:
The EDR920/1640 DVRs provide 4 audio inputs and 1 audio output.
The inputs are designed for max. 500 mV to 10 KOhm line audio signals.
ATTENTION: The direct connection of a non-amplified microphone is not supported (a
microphone amplifier is required).
The installation has to be effected with audio coax cable and RCA plugs.
The output provides a max. 500 mV to 10 KOhm line audio signal and may be connected to e.g.
a monitor‘s audio input. The direct connection of (passive) speakers is not supported.
AUDIO RECORDING FUNCTIONALITY:
Audio recording is activated / deactivated in the RECORDING menu for all channels.
Audio of all channels is always recorded together with (each) video and is independent of the
image recording rate. There is no specific camera allocation.
During playback, use the JOG to select the requested playback channel 1~4 (active channel is
indicated in playback on-screen display).
17
2.4 RS-485 keyboard installation
All EDR920/1640 functions can be remote-controlled by the EKB 500 universal keyboard. Using
the EEPbus protocol, digital video recorders, keyboards and speed domes can be installed on
one single RS-485 bus. One system can comprise up to 8 keyboards.
2.4.1 General RS-485 bus installation
EKB-500 uses an RS-485 simplex wiring; the signal is transferred via a single twisted pair line.
CAT5 network cable is recommended, UPT version (unshielded) is sufficient for normal
application. A shielded cable should be used if the installed cables are expected to be highly
susceptible to interferences.
The number of devices installed in one bus is limited to 32 (expandable through signal
distributors).
Basically, the bus should be created by serial wiring, star wiring is only permitted using signal
distributors.
Maximum RS-485 bus cable length is 1200 m. Both the first and the last device are normally
120 Ohm terminated in order to minimize line reflexions.
RS-485 bus serial wiring
Cable length from box to device („Stubs“) has to be limited to 2m using connector boxes.
RS-485 bus serial wiring with connector boxes and connection cable
18
A direct RS-485 bus star wiring is not supported; star wiring requires the use of signal
distributors.
Improper RS-485 bus star wiring
If star wiring is inevitable, EDA 997A RS-485 signal distributors may be used. The maximum system
cable length can also be expanded by using these distributors, physically providing a new RS-485
bus with 1200 m cable length each at every distributor output.
Star wiring with RS-485 signal distributor
ATTENTION: The RS-485 signal distributor EDA997A is unidirectional! This means that the
signal only flows from the input towards the outputs. Therefore, e.g. the
interconnection of several keyboards is not possible with this signal distributor!
In case the maximum number of 32 bus participants is exceeded, the number of connected
devices can be increased by using RS-485 distributors. Each distributor output physically
provides one RS-485 bus which enables the additional connection of 31 further devices (the
distributor output represents one bus participant itself).
The maximum system expandability depends on the RS-485 address range of the installed
devices.
System expansion with RS-485 signal distributor
