APPENDIX C DVR TEXT INPUT CONNECTIONS
The AVE MVDR5000 DVR has the ability to input two VSI-Pro Max ASCII Text directly without any networking. The RS-
232 DB9M connector on the rear of the DVR can accept the data from one VSI-Pro Max. The RS-485 RJ12 connector can
also accept data from the VSI-Pro Max. The RS-232 port inserts the data on Camera 1 and the RS-485 port inserts on
Camera 2.
VSI-Pro Max POS / Cash Register Interface
When using the VSI-Pro Max in the register “Tapping Mode” the RS-232 Pin 3 or Pin 8 can be used to output the text to
the DVR. If you are using the VSI-Pro Max for “Slave Mode” networking then you can not use the RJ45 RS-485 or RS-232
Pin 8 as an output to the DVR and only RS-232 is available from Pin 3. If you are not using the VSI-Pro Max in the “Slave
Mode” then you can use RS-232 Pin 8 or RJ45 RS-485 output to the DVR. If using the VSI-Pro Max in the “Master Mode”
then only RS-232 Pin 3 can be used to connect to the DVR or use the AVE RS-232 to RS-485 converter to connect to the
DVR RS-485 input.
When using the VSI-Pro Max in the register “Emulate Mode” only Pin 8 can be used for RS-232 output or the RJ45
Network connector can be used for RS-485 output to the DVR. The VSI-Pro Max can not be used in either the “Slave or
Master Mode” while providing any ASCII text output to the DVR in either RS-232 or RS-485 format. Therefore the VSI-Pro
Max when used in the “Emulate Mode” can only be used in conjunction with the “Slave Mode” OR Text output mode using
RS-232 Pin 8 or RJ45 RS-485.
