Features: Active loop thru for DVR’s with ground loop blocking Optional UTP / CAT-5 Inputs Input for Multi screen display from DVR Optional UTP / CAT-5 video out to monitors with receiver adaptor Contact closure detection for alarm input Simple remote button step sequence of cameras Ground loop blocking video input circuitry RS-232 control of outputs

Camera Requirements: The ARS-1680 will work with Color or B/W cameras, AC or DC operated. The outputs from the cameras can be either BNC/75 ohm Coax or UTP/CAT-5/3 terminal strip/100 ohms. Depending on the option ordered.

Cable Requirements: For the video in: For BNC/75 ohm it is best to use RG-59U with a copper braid shield. RG-6 can be used but is not recommended. For the UTP/Cat-5, use a quality grade of Cat-3 or Cat-5. If a balun is not build into the camera, one is needed for each camera location. For the remote buttons: For best results use a 24 ga. pair or larger For the video out: Use RG-59U (75 ohm Coax) for each monitor feed. For the Alarming inputs: For best results use a 24 ga. Pair or larger

Grounding: Make sure that all devices that are attached to the ARS series switcher is properly grounded. For outdoor cameras, lightning protective devices are required on each cable feed. Refer to the devices manual for proper grounding instructions.

Installation:

1) Determine the type of cables to be used, the camera locations and the monitor locations.2) For the cameras you will need either a length of RG-59U or Cat-5 or 3 to run from each camera to the ARS.3) Connect the video into the unit. Each video input connector is located on the rear of the chassis above the corresponding output.

4) Connect the video outputs (both the loop thru and the monitor feed). The sixteen loop-thru outputs are located on the back of the chassis below the corresponding input. The eight monitor feed outputs are also located on the back of the chassis (fig.3)5) From each monitor run one RG-59U and a 1 pair 24 ga or larger pair wire for the remote button which is connected as shown below. If more than one button and monitor is required for each output, simply parallel the buttons and DA the video to the monitors. We do not recommend loop thru video.6) Plug in the CVT-0540 power pack to power up the unit.7) Connect alarm contacts to the contact in terminal strip located on the rear of the chassis

8) Set Scan Rate: To set the scan rate disconnect monitor feed output #1 from the rear of the unit and plug a test monitor into it. Pull out the video out PC Board and adjust the “Scan Rate Adj” control with a small flat head screw driver until you active the desired scan rate. Then reinsert the board and test to see if it is the correct rate you want.9) Set Alarm Hold Time: To set the alarm hold time, short any of the alarm inputs and adjust the control until the desired hold time is achieved. (Fig 8)10) To set the individual Pass / Scan switches for each output, depress the switch in the “scan” position. You will then see the image when stepping or scanning thru the cameras. In the “skip” position, the camera will be skipped over and not displayed.

The following is an example of a GW basic program used to control from 1 to 16 ARS-8400s. The factory preset is machine #1, whose command is on line 910. The first group of characters are used to determine which machine number is being activated in a multi switcher system. Normally machine #1 is used a default. The second group determines the Input that will be switched to the output once the commands are sent. Line #905 represents the settings for the RS-232 Com. port. If you have any questions please call Compu-Video Systems at (845) 737-7009 between the hours of 9am and 5pm (EST).
