Connection to HOST PC
Each DVMD14 may be connected to a HOST PC NIC card using a “Reverse CAT5” cable, or to a hub or router
with a “Straight-Through CAT5” cable. The PC will run the ManagerNETxxx.exe program, establish a network
connection to the DVMD14 and allow changes.
A security system with more than 14 video cameras may use multiple DVMD14s. Each DVMD14 must have a
unique IP address. The IP address is set using the XPORT configuration utility provided by Lantronix. See the
appendix below for XPORT setup instructions.

VIDEO CONNECTIONS
The DVMD14 receives video from the camera through the BNC connector labeled VIDEO IN and provides
buffered video output (after internal processing, clamping, automatic gain control (AGC), and
overlay) through the BNC connector labeled VIDEO OUT. All channels have video bypass
relays for backplane versions REV F and above.
ALARM CONNECTIONS
Three connection points provide connection to a dry contact relay alarm output. The alarm output is labeled
Normally Open (NO), Common (COM), and Normally Closed (NC).
Most alarm systems need to use NO and COM because the Alarm input will go open when:
1. There is an alarm.
2. There is a power loss to the DVMD14
3. There is a broken wire from the NO and COM wires to the host
