IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS AND WARNINGS 1. Read, keep, and follow these instructions. 2. Heed all warnings. 3. There are no user-serviceable parts inside this unit. Only authorized service personnel may open the unit. 4. Installation and servicing should only be done by qualified service personnel and conform to all local codes. 5. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this unit to rain or moisture if this unit is designed for indoor use only. 6.
DESCRIPTION WHAT IS A VIDEO MULTIPLEXER? A four-channel (or quad) multiplexer lets you record pictures from up to four cameras on a single VCR. You can also watch up to four cameras simultaneously on one screen, either live or in playback. For closer detail, you can choose full-screen viewing without losing detail (as occurs with “quad” devices that compress four pictures into one recording). The multiplexer acts as an interface between the CCTV cameras and the VCR.
GENEX® SERIES MULTIPLEXERS The MX4004 Genex® Series duplex multiplexers can accept video inputs from a maximum of four cameras. You can work in any of four languages: English (default), French, German, or Spanish. These duplex multiplexers let you view multi-screen video while recording or playing tapes using regular or time-lapse VCRs. MX4004 multiplexers do not record and play back simultaneously. • The main monitor displays video from a single camera or from multiple cameras.
APPLICATIONS NOTE: The KBD4000, KBD4002, and KBD4000V keyboards in combination with a multiplexer provide Coaxitron control of pan, tilt, and lens functions. When used with 32-bit extended Coaxitron receivers, such as Intercept®, Spectra®, IRD/ERD2000 Series, and LRD41C21/LRD41C22 Series, the KBD4000/KBD4002/ KBD4000V keyboard in conjunction with a multiplexer will support all the functions of a 15-bit standard Coaxitron receiver, including the setting and calling of presets and patterns.

Rack Installation – Two Multiplexers NOTE: You need to locate the multiplexer near an electrical outlet in order to initialize the unit (refer to step 9, Powering the Multiplexer). Mounting it in a rack may make this difficult. Pelco Manual C1995M-A (10/01) DOUBLE MOUNT 1. Refer to Figure 6. Remove the front two screws from both sides of the multiplexer. Use four of the screws to attach the short rack ears to the outer sides of each unit. 2.

POWERING THE MULTIPLEXER NOTE: If the reach between the electrical outlet and the VIEW button is too far, try the following. Detach the transformer cord from the rear of the multiplexer, plug into the outlet first, and then plug the transformer cord into the multiplexer. A rack-mounted unit may require two people. Use the following procedure to initialize multiplexers being powered up for the first time or after extended storage.
PROGRAMMING NOTE: Whenever a multiplexer server is installed, you must enter programming mode from the multiplexer’s front panel. After doing so, you can program the multiplexer through its front panel or you can navigate and make programming selections through the keyboard. Programming of setups for system, camera, VCR, camera sequencing, and alarm handling is done through on-screen menus displayed on the main monitor. There are two ways to program the multiplexer: • From the multiplexer front panel.
CHANGING THE LANGUAGE You can work in any of four languages: English, French, German, or Spanish. There are two ways to set the language you want to work in: change the language selection on the Main menu or reset the unit. • • Change on the Main Menu 1. Hold down the Quad button for more than three seconds to access the Main menu. 2. Use the up arrow to position the cursor on the Language line. 3. Press the +/- button to cycle to the next language. The cursor will move to highlight Exit. 4.
GENERAL MENU INFORMATION MENU NAVIGATION AND EDITING • When you enter a menu, the cursor is on EXIT. Pressing the arrow buttons moves the cursor one position. Holding them down moves the cursor continuously through selections until you release them. • Pressing the +/- button changes the current selection. • Double-pressing the +/- button changes the direction of the values—from increasing value to decreasing value. • Changing the camera number calls up the camera menu for that particular camera.

Spot Monitor Display/Responds To If you want the spot monitor to switch to cameras that have alarms, select BLANK, SEQUENCE, or TRACK MAIN, then under RESPONDS TO select ALARM. If you are using the spot monitor for normal video and you do not want alarms to override what you are observing, select NONE. BLANK – Lets you view an individual camera, but you cannot run a sequence. An alarm will override the camera you are viewing. When the alarm goes away, the screen returns to the camera you were viewing.

VCR Switch Pulse ENABLED + means the multiplexer waits for a positive head switching pulse from the VCR. If the multiplexer does not get a pulse from the VCR (because of a broken wire or the VCR does not give a pulse in some modes), it may appear the multiplexer is not working properly. ENABLE – (minus sign) means the multiplexer waits for a negative head switching pulse from the VCR. DISABLED means the head switching pulse is not used.

Moveable cameras can be operated with the joystick or pan and tilt keys: • From the main monitor if the spot monitor is programmed to track the main monitor. • From the spot monitor if the spot monitor is chosen. Also, the camera will move on the main monitor if the same camera is being shown on both the main and spot monitors. 10. The position of switch 7 on the keyboard determines how you call cameras. • If the switch is ON, all cameras are addressed consecutively.
