Satellite Boxes

 

The satellite boxes represent expandable input slots for the Video Recorders which can be mounted remotely and connected back to the main Video Recorder unit using the RS485 ports.  These satellite boxes will give customers the ability to add inputs to the Video Recorder.

 

The SR3 (pictured) contains three additional inputs for the Video Recorder. The satellite box SR6 contains six additional inputs, while the other satellite boxes contain the number of inputs denoted by the number after the “SR”: SR9, SR12, SR15, SR18, and SR21.

 

To connect the satellite box back to the main Video Recorder unit, the “Remote RS485” on the satellite box must be wired into the “RS485 Remote” on the main unit.  24VDC need to be provided to the satellite box either by using a jumper from the main VR unit or from a separate source.
