FEATURES
VCRs and digital recorders used in the CCTV
industry allow remote control through a variety of
methods. The most common methods are
IR-controlled (identical to what is offered in the
consumer industry), resistive ladder-controlled
(typically via a hardwired remote), and serial
communication-controlled (e.g., via RS-232).
The AD100 series of recorder control devices
allows for remote control of these types of
recorders via the MegaPower™ 48, 168, 1024
matrix switcher/controller systems (directly from
the AD2088 full system keyboard). This enables
users to have integrated control of a wide variety
of the most popular types of recorders.
The recorder controller is the CPU of the recorder
interface network, enabling the programming (via
RS-485) of the various recorder interface modules.
Just one recorder controller can accommodate the
entire network. Up to 128 different interfaces can
be connected to the recorder controller in a daisy-
chain configuration.
The various recorder interface modules, each of
which is connected to the recorder controller, also
link directly to the individual recorders. The IR
Interface Module controls up to 16 IR-controlled
recorders, each of which can be a different type of
recorder. The Resistive Ladder Interface Module
controls up to eight resistive ladder recorders,
each of which can be a different type of recorder.
And the RS-232 Interface Module controls up to
eight RS-232 recorders.
A single network can accommodate up to 2,048
IR recorders, 1,024 resistive ladder recorders or
1,024 RS-232 recorders or a combination of all
three types.
