2. Remove green connector from Encoder power supply in order to feed the cable
through the weatherproof plugs. Remove the black grommet from the white plug
and insert the power cable through the weatherproof plug. Reattach grommet
into plug and green connector onto power supply. Ensure white dashed cable is
inserted into 12V port and solid black cable into GRD port. If using a D900
Transceiver, place the transceiver on its side and adjust the antenna so it is
pointing up.
3. Attach an off-white painted bracket to the top and bottom of the enclosure. Use
four M5 x .9P x 10mm Philips pan head screws attaching the outer holes to the
four corner threaded ports on the backside of the enclosure. Mount enclosure to
pole or wall using two off-white painted brackets and hardware kit.
2.3.4 Replacing / Adding an Encoder to an Existing Encoder/Decoder
System
When a replacement encoder is ordered after the original products had been in
deployment, the new encoder may need to be reconfigured if the old device was not
set to the product defaults. The KBC Encoder can also replace an SED series encoder
and connect to an SED series decoder if applicable. If an SED series decoder is in
use the easiest reconfiguration is to set the new encoder to the settings of the old
SED series encoder which is no longer in use. Because the decoder must be told the
LAN IP and user ID and password of the encoder in order to stream its video, the
encoder may need to have its ID and password for GUI access changed as well.
Contact KBC for further details on this process.
2.3.5 Establishing a Connection to a KBC Decoder
When connecting the KBC ENC-H-W* Encoder to a KBC Decoder, the following items
must be in place:
• Both of the LEDs on the encoder and decoder LAN port must be illuminated.
When video is streaming, the amber LED will flash rapidly.
• Ensure that the video cable from the camera to the encoder is connected when
the encoder is powered down. Connecting it after encoder power up will require
a power reset.
• The video source must be present and powered up.
• The encoder IP must be able to be pinged from the decoder side of the network
using a computer which is on the same subnet as the encoder/decoder devices.
The decoder must also be able to be pinged from the encoder side of the
network using a computer on the same static subnet as the encoder and
decoder.
• There must be sufficient throughput across the medium used to connect the two
devices. If insufficient throughput is available, the encoder can be reconfigured
to consume less network traffic.
