xiv Verint Video Solutions
Overview The S1100w is the industry’s first wireless video transmitter allowing digital video transmission over multiple license-free bands. It delivers high-quality MPEG-4-based video at 30 frames per second in NTSC (25 in PAL) over local and wide area networks (LANs and WANs). This wireless edge device is built on open standards to provide long-term investment protection.
1: Overview About the S1100w The S1100w devices come as transmitters only. You can buy 12V DC or 24V AC devices. The S1100w covers the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands in North America and Europe. You can purchase an S1100w device with a motion track device (S1100w-MT). It provides the most accurate, cost effective wireless outdoor motion tracking capability available today.
Nextiva S1100w User Guide For more information about these video parameters, refer to the SConfigurator User Guide. Shipment Your S1100w shipment contains the following items: The requested transmitter, which comes with an integrated patch antenna (with a gain of 8.5 dBi in the 2.
1: Overview Casing Description The S1100w electronics are enclosed in a weather-tight cast aluminum module. All cable entries are mounted on the underside of the module to maintain its weatherproof properties. The front panel integrates one bicolor visual indicator that illustrates the operational state of the device.
System and RF Planning To allow optimal configuration, you must properly plan your network, especially RF (radio frequency) and configuration layout.
2: System and RF Planning Frequency Bands and Channels The S1100w supports communications in the following frequency bands, in North America and Europe: 2.4 GHz OFDM, also known as 802.11g 5 GHz OFDM, also known as 802.11a 2.4 GHz Band The 2.4 GHz band provides 11 channels in North America and 13 in Europe. In these two regions, only channels 1, 6, and 11 are non-overlapping. All these channels are for indoor or outdoor use.
Nextiva S1100w User Guide In Europe, the 11 non-overlapping channels, for indoor or outdoor use, are: Channel 100 104 108 112 116 120 Frequency (GHz) 5.50 5.52 5.54 5.56 5.58 5.60 Channel 124 128 132 136 140 Frequency (GHz) 5.62 5.64 5.66 5.68 5.70 Wireless Cells A wireless network is designed such that information can travel back and forth between two points without the need for wires.
2: System and RF Planning Point-to-Multipoint Application A point-to-multipoint application is a wireless cell made up of an S3100 bridge (the master) and several S1100w transmitters (the clients). Here is a typical point-to-multipoint system: S1100w S3100 For example, to associate three S1100w devices to one outdoor wireless bridge, you need to: 1. Assign the same wireless passkey to the S1100w devices and the S3100 bridge.
Nextiva S1100w User Guide For example, consider the following setup: S1100w 1 S3100 3 S3100 2 S3100 1 S1100w 2 You should update the devices in the following order: 1. S1100w 1—You then lose contact with S1100w 1. 2. S1100w 2—You then lose contact with S1100w 2. 3. S3100 1—You can then reach all devices. 4. S3100 2—You then lose contact will all devices except master S3100 3. 5. S3100 3—You can then reach all devices.
2: System and RF Planning TPC If the country of operation of the S1100w device requires conformity to the TPC (Transmit Power Control) regulations, the transmission power of its radio is automatically reduced by 3 dB before leaving the Verint Video Solutions factory. However, in case of a weak wireless link (that is, a link with an RF margin of less than 15 dB), you have the opportunity to use the maximum transmission power (see page 39).
Nextiva S1100w User Guide Distance Limitations The distance limitations between devices are: To avoid material damages, you must never power any two devices while their antennas are facing one another with a distance of less than 10 feet (3 meters). If using adjacent channels, see page 61 for the recommendations on the minimum distances to respect. With different frequency bands or with non-adjacent channels in the same band, two devices can be side by side with no minimum distance between them.
2: System and RF Planning This application can be illustrated this way, where the three cells are in the same location: C B A 5 GHz Band in Europe The maximum number of colocated cells corresponds to the number of channels in the available frequency bands that can be used outdoors. For instance, in most countries of Western Europe, you can have up to 11 colocated cells in the 5.40–5.725 GHz band.
Nextiva S1100w User Guide Supported Setups The following colocated systems are supported in the 5.40–5.725 GHz band: Two point-to-multipoint applications, in which the transmitters from one system do not see the transmitters from the other cell. Both master devices see each other. S3100 S3100 A point-to-multipoint repeater. Both master devices see each other.
2: System and RF Planning RF Planning Successful operation of a wireless link depends on proper RF path planning and antenna installation. You have to install the devices in such a way that there is a clear RF line of sight between the two antennas. Location Evaluation The path between the two antennas must be free of obstacles that could disturb propagation. For very short link distances—less than 500 feet (152 meters)—you may be able to establish a working link despite partial path obstruction.
Nextiva S1100w User Guide For distances under seven miles, the earth curvature effect is negligible. However, for greater distances, you need to consider it in your calculations; for instance, for a 15-mile link in the 2.4 GHz band, the two antennas must be located 82 feet higher than the highest obstacle in the RF line of sight between them (that is, 53 feet for the Fresnel zone plus 29 feet for the earth curvature effect). For help, consult the Verint Video Solutions project engineering group.
2: System and RF Planning For example, consider a device running in the 5.3 GHz band in North America. Since the maximum EIRP allowed in this area is 30 dBm, you should not install an antenna whose gain is greater than 24 dBi (that is, 30 dBm - 6 dB). Note: Connecting an antenna with a gain higher than the calculated value contravenes your country’s regulations. It is your responsibility to ensure that you respect the regulations in place. Interference In most countries, the 2.

Surge Protection Voltage and current surges can be induced by lightning strikes or power line transients. In the real world, under the right circumstances, these surges can reach sufficiently high levels to damage almost any electronic equipment. Therefore you need to add protection to your devices.
F: Surge Protection The S1100w provides basic surge protection on all electrical lines. If you are installing the equipment in a lightning prone or heavy lightning environment, or in a site where large AC mains power fluctuations are a common occurrence, Verint Video Solutions strongly recommends that you add additional external surge protection to all vulnerable connections. Vulnerable connections are those that run for a long distance between the S1100w device and the connected equipment.
Separation Between Devices Using Adjacent Channels Verint Video Solutions 61
G: Separation Between Devices Using Adjacent Channels If using adjacent frequency channels in a non-DFS environment, you should respect guidelines relative to the minimum separation between device antennas. The guidelines apply to the S1100, S1100w, and S3100 devices. In the 2.4 GHz band, the adjacent channel term applies only to the three non-overlapping channels (1, 6, and 11). The presented figures represent worse case scenarios.
Nextiva S1100w User Guide Using only 5 GHz channels, all on the same side of a building: 5.8 GHz 165 5.3 GHz 56 5.8 GHz 157 5.3 GHz 64 10.75 feet (3.25m) each 5.8 GHz 149 5.3 GHz 52 5.8 GHz 161 5.3 GHz 60 5.8 GHz 153 43 feet (13m) Notice that the devices using the adjacent channels 52 and 56 are separated by the prescribed 43 feet (13m). However, you can intersperse other devices in-between, as long as they do not use adjacent channels.
G: Separation Between Devices Using Adjacent Channels Using only 5 GHz channels, all pointing in the same direction on two poles. There is no minimum separation between any two adjacent devices sharing a pole, since they do not use adjacent channels: 5.8 GHz 165 5.3 GHz 56 5.3 GHz 60 5.8 GHz 157 5.8 GHz 153 5.3 GHz 64 5.8 GHz 161 5.3 GHz 52 5.8 GHz 149 43 feet (13m) Using only 5 GHz channels, on two sides of a building.
Nextiva S1100w User Guide Using only 5 GHz channels, all on the same side of a tower. The minimum separation between devices using adjacent channels—for example, 56 and 60—is the prescribed 13 feet (4m): 5.8 GHz 165 5.3 GHz 56 5.8 GHz 157 5.3 GHz 64 13 feet (4m) 5.8 GHz 149 5.3 GHz 60 5.8 GHz 153 3.3 feet (1m) each 5.8 GHz 161 5.

Motion Track The S1100w device can include a Radiant digital video motion detection (DVMD) module for motion tracking. The specific module embedded into the S1100w-MT devices, DVMD 1, is a single-channel product that will work with one video input. You perform the DVMD configuration with the Radiant ManagerNET application.
H: Motion Track Motion Detection Processing Using adaptive signal processing technology, the DVMD module achieves a high probability of detection in a wide range of operating environments, with a very low nuisance alarm rate. This technology is especially good at handling noisy video sources, such as uncooled infrared and light-intensified cameras. DVMD adapts to changes in lighting and weather that have caused previous generations of video motion detectors to generate a high level of nuisance alarms.
Nextiva S1100w User Guide 3. Select the S1100w, then click Telnet. The main menu of the CLI appears. 4. Select Advanced, then Serial Port (IP), then Motion Track Serial Port. 5.

H: Motion Track 2. Start the ManagerNET application. The first time you run the application, the connection table is empty. 3. Right-click anywhere in the connection table, then choose Add Entry. The Add Entry window appears. 4. In the Module Description box, enter a meaningful free-format text identifying the DVMD module. 5. In the Channel ID box, select a number for the DVMD module. In a large system, you should provide a unique value to each module to easily distinguish it from the others.
Nextiva S1100w User Guide 11. Click OK. The Camera Types window appears. 12. In the Camera Type box, select Fixed Camera. 13. In the Video Type box, select the video standard used. 14. Click OK. The new connection should appear in the connection table. If a timeout error is displayed instead, it indicates that a communication problem with the DVMD module occurred.
H: Motion Track Status Information The Status tab displays the current state of the DVMD module. Address—The address of the DVMD module. It will always be FF0 since the DVMD 1 product is for a single video input. Software ID—The current DVMD firmware version. Loader ID—The current version of the serial loader firmware, an internal component of the video processor.
Nextiva S1100w User Guide Files Settings Use the Files tab to save all DVMD settings on disk or load settings from flash memory. Load Defaults—To load all the default factory settings. Saved Settings—To use configurations that have been saved in memory. The available options are: Load—To load settings that have been previously saved. Save—To save the current settings in memory. Copy—This setting is unavailable since there is only one video input.
H: Motion Track Display Settings The Display tab helps you choose what overlay text will be displayed over the video, either on an analog monitor or on a computer screen. It also provides configurations for the type of video being played and the trajectories of objects. Channel ID—The number of the DVMD module. Show Motion—The indication of whether real-time video is displayed when motion is detected. If activated, you can see what kind of movement the DVMD module is detecting.
Nextiva S1100w User Guide Trail Delta Interval—Default value provided by the supplier. Mask The Mask tab allows you to define masks, that is, areas that the DVMD module will ignore in the camera’s field of view, therefore preventing false alarms from occurring. DVMD uses the mask that is currently loaded. Note: When the Mask tab is opened, the DVMD module cannot detect targets. Erase All—To clear the displayed mask. The original grabbed image is restored. Set All—To mask the entire video image.
H: Motion Track Sensitivity Settings Use the Sensitivity tab to adjust the sensitivity of the DVMD module and set several target selection attributes. Contrast—The range of colors in each of the cells. Increasing the contrast raises the dynamic threshold, makes DVMD less sensitive to nuisance alarms and lowers the probability of detection. Noise video sources, such as light-intensified cameras and infrared cameras, can have high variability.
Nextiva S1100w User Guide Target Settings This tab allows you to specify when a target will generate an alarm. Target Elimination—Two settings relative to the target velocity: Maximum Velocity—The highest velocity limit for a target to be considered valid. This feature reduces nuisance alarms from high-speed birds and bugs. The range of values is 0–40. Minimum Velocity—The lowest velocity limit for a target to be considered valid.
H: Motion Track Target Size The Target Size tab provides configurations for the size of targets that DVMD identifies. Sizes are based on cells in the video image. Adjusting these settings allows you to eliminate some targets so that they do not generate alarms. The target size is calculated based on 8x8 cells. These settings are important to the overall performance of the DVMD module.

Compliance To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP) is not more than that required for successful communication. Note: The S1100w devices require professional installation. They should be installed in a location that would prevent the general population from approaching from 3 feet (1 meter) of the radiating element.
