Connecting Network Cables

The primary network interface (LAN-1) on the S1800e series is for the main

connectivity to the LAN.

The secondary network interface (LAN-2) on the S1800e series encoder is used

by support for debugging purposes. The default IP address of LAN 2 is set to

172.29.204.254 with subnet mask 255.255.255.252. Any computer connecting

to the S1800e series encoder must use the following IP address

172.29.204.253.

Note

LAN-2 is not available on the S1816e-SR model.

Connection Purpose

LAN-1 Primary LAN/WAN connectivity.

LAN-2 Secondary LAN connectivity used by Verint support.

► To connect network cables

1. Plug a straight-through Ethernet cable to the LAN1 connector on the rear.

Connecting a Serial Device

RS-232, RS-422 and RS-485 are communication standards between a Data

Terminal Equipment (DTE) and a Data Circuit-terminating Equipment (DCE)

using the asynchronous serial communication method.

Most serial equipments such as PTZ cameras, keyboards, matrixs,

multiplexers, or access cards conform to the RS-232 or RS-422/485 standards.

The S1800e series devices supports the RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485

asynchronous protocols using pluggable screw-terminal strips. For any other

protocol, you may need a converter.

Note

The S1800e series devices come with a terminal block plug to attach RS-232,

RS-422/485 devices to the S1800e series.
