Introduction The TruVision TVE H.264 IP video decoder converts compressed IP video streams to analog video output for display. Based on a powerful DSP and a stable embedded system design, the TVE-DEC11 decoder provides a high resolution decoding function for both live view and playback streams from Interlogix IP cameras, digital video recorders and network video recorders. This user manual provides basic information on setting up and using the TVEDEC11 model.

Connections See Figure 2 on page 3 for information on connecting the power, camera, audio and network cables. Alarm connections The TVE decoder supports the open/close relay input as the alarm input mode. When the alarm input signal not in open/close relay signal mode, please follow the connections shown below: Figure 3: Alarm input connections Alarm input connections for Emerson alarm: Alarm input connections for normal alarm: 1. Emerson alarm 4. 4N35 optocoupler 2. V output 5. Relay output 3.
Figure 4: Alarm output connections Note: Please note the different connections of JJ1 shown above. For a DC load, JJ1can be safely used both in NC and NO methods. It is recommended to use 12 V / 1 A. For an external AC input, JJ1 must be open. The motherboard has two jumpers, each corresponding to one alarm output. Both jumpers are factory set to be connected.
Network Settings This chapter explains how to use TruVision Device Manager to find and configure the IP address and other parameters of the device. Note: The default user name of TVE is admin, and password is 1234. The default IP address is 192.168.1.70 TruVision Device Manager The TruVision Device Manager tool can be found on the CD shipped with that product. This tool automatically identifies TruVision devices that support “auto-discovery” in the same subnets.
