Chapter 2: Contact Closure

Wiring ConsiderationsThe RTMS can provide up to 16 contact closures, delivering real time presence indication in each of its detection zones. The contacts are arranged in two wiring configurations and operating modes:

• Eight isolated contact pairs (as in RTMS Models X2/X3 and K3). In this configuration each of the contacts is isolated from the other.

• Sixteen contact pairs. In this configuration all contacts will share a common Signal Ground. The contact closures can be configured to operate either in Single Loop mode or Dual Loop (Speed Trap) mode. Single Loop mode provides up to 12 lanes or zones of detection, Dual Loop mode provides up to 8 lanes of Dual Loops.

You should wire the cable based on your preferred Contact Closure output mode.

Contact Closure Chapter 2:


Configuring Contact ClosureThis option is used to select or configure the type of contact closure to be used.

NOTES:

• This feature is only enabled if the Contact Closure option is installed in the RTMS or in Demo mode.

• Contact closure numbering can be different from the zone numbering. The closest zone will always associate with contact closure number 1 irrespective of its zone number. Contact closure numbering will increase sequentially as they get further away from the RTMS.

1. Start the RTMS Setup Utility.

2. On the Main Screen, click Manual Settings.

3. On the Manual Setup screen, click Advanced.

4. On the Advanced screen, click Contact Closures.

The following screen appears.

5. Select one of the following:

Chapter 2: Contact Closure


• Isolated Pairs — This option allows you to isolate contacts from each other. It provides eight zones of detection, and uses two wires per zone. The zones operate completely independent of each other. The contact is closed as soon as the detection starts and remains until the detection ends.

• Common Ground — This option allows contacts to share a common ground. it provides 12 zones of detection using a common ground. The contact is closed as soon as the detection starts and remains until the detection ends.

• Dual Loop Emulation — see “Dual Loop Emulation” on page 2-4.

6. Click OK.

The new value is set to the RTMS and you are returned to the Advanced screen.

Contact Closure Chapter 2:


Dual Loop EmulationThis option requires that all contacts share a common ground and provides eight zones of detection. This option also provides eight primary and secondary outputs that can be used to simulate the closure information that is collected from a dual loop station. Changing the time delay between the primary and secondary loop outputs is used to adjust the speed information that the controller produces. Selecting the Dual-Loop Emulation options will display the Dual Loops screen.

This screen is used to adjust the controller speed output to match the RTMS speed.

The options on this screen are:

• Increase/Decrease Controller Speed — This option allows you to synchronize average vehicle speed from the controller with average vehicle speed from the RTMS.

• Load Defaults — Loads factory default setting of 4.5m (15 ft) leading edge to leading edge. Start with the factory default and increase or decrease as necessary.

• Exit — Returns to the Advanced screen.


Chapter 3: G4-TCP (TCP/IP)

GeneralThe G4-TCP (TCP/IP option) units ship with pre-programmed settings to ensure optimal performance. Depending on the final installation, the settings may need to be adjusted. The purpose of this document is to provide information that can aid in setup and troubleshooting of Ethernet TCP/IP communications.

NOTE: When changing the settings through the web interface, it is possible that a setting will be applied but the screen still remains on the old settings. This is typically due to the web browser caching the old setting. This is a known issue and the way around this is to clear the cache in your browser.

Connecting to the G4-TCP for the First TimeYou communicate with the G4-TCP across an Ethernet network. As such, the unit must be set up with the appropriate IP addressing. In order to communicate with the G4-TCP for the first time you must do the following.

The following describes the procedure to connect to the G4-TCP for the first time.

1. Connect the Ethernet cable from the computer to the RTMS.

2. Power on the RTMS.

NOTE: Before changing the IP address of your computer, make note of the original settings as you will want to restore these settings.

3. Set up the IP addressing of your computer using the following:

• for IP address: 128.100.101.100

• for Subnet mask: 255.255.0.0

For information on how to set the IP address of your computer, consult the documentation for your operating system.

4. Log in to the G4-TCP (see “Logging In to the G4-TCP” on page 3-2).

5. Set up the IP addressing of the G4-TCP (see “Setting Up the IP Address of the G4-TCP” on page 3-4).

G4-TCP (TCP/IP) Chapter 3:

Saving the Configuration Settings to a File

NOTE: Once the G4-TCP is configured it is a good idea to save all the TCP/IP configuration settings. This file can then be used later in case the unit needs to be replaced or restored.

To save a configuration file, do the following.


2. In the left (orange) pane of the Status window, click XML.

The XML Export Configuration window appears.

3. Select Export to Browser.

IMPORTANT: Do NOT select Export to local file as this would save it to a location on the actual Lantronix device and not on your computer.

4. Make sure all options are selected, including:

• Export Secrets

• Ethernet: eth0

• Interface: eth0



5. Scroll to the bottom of the window and select Export.

A new Window will pop up with the configuration settings in XML format.

6. Save this file to your computer.

a) Select File>Save As. (Note, on newer versions of Internet Explorer, this might be Page>Save As.)

b) Enter a name for the file.

Note: When naming the file it is a good idea to include the MatchPort AR firmware version in the file name to which this configuration applies because if a subsequent firmware is released, this file will probably have settings that do not apply. Example: ISS_MatchportAR_defaults_rev1.1.0.0R7.xml.

7. For the Save as type, select XML.

8. Select the location where you want the file saved.

9. Click Save.



Restoring a Configuration FileTo restore a configuration file, do the following.


2. In the left (orange) pane of the Status window, click XML.

3. Click Import Configuration.

The XML Import Configuration window appears.

4. Click Browse.

5. Locate and select the configuration file to be restored.

6. Click Import.



Using Telnet to Confirm ChangesSometimes there is an issue with seeing the changes as they take place due to the browser caching the values.

Chapter 4: G4-SSP (Second Serial Port)

GeneralModel G4-SSP is the Second Serial Port option allows the user to access the RTMS through a serial connection without interrupting the first serial port. The second serial port can be used much like the first serial port except for one difference; this port can be set up to use RS-232 or RS-422. The first serial port can be set up for RS-485 which has multi-drop functionality whereas the second serial port can only be set up for RS-422 which can only be used for point-to-point functionality. For communicating with the RTMS through the second serial port refer to the instructions in the RTMS User Guide for serial port 1. The following lists the cable pair requirements.

G4-SSP (Second Serial Port) Chapter 4:


Dual RS-232 Port WiringWith the second Serial Port option the RTMS has two independent serial ports. The maximum cable length is as follows:

• For baud rate of 19,200 or 115,200: 15m (50 ft)

• For baud rate of 9600: 152m (500 ft) is the recommended maximum. However, you can go up to 244m (800 ft) when the:– Cable has a minimum gauge of 20 AWG– Baud rate is 9600– Environment is ideal– Cable is continuous

The second port is mainly used when another device such as an RF Modem or TCP/IP server is used with the unit. Below is the wiring for two independent RS-232 ports configuration. Each port can be operated separately at its own speed and carry different streams of information.

The Live View screen allows you to view what is actually happening in the camera view area. Additionally, from this screen you can:

• snap images

• record video

• replay recorded video

• zoom in to the view

• view video in full screen mode

Snap:

Captures a JPG format image of the current video. You can view the image at a later date using a standard image viewer.

The image is saved to the location specified in the Record file path field on the Local Set screen (see “Local Set Screen” on page 6-38), and is named according to the timestamp at which it was taken, and is placed in a sub-folder created by the system

For example, if the specified location is C:\XDNVS, and the image is taken at 13:22:10, then the path to the image would be:



C:\XDNVS\yyyy-mm-dd\ipaddr_name\1\13_22_10.jpg

where:

C: = hard drive indicator

XNDVS = folder specified on the Local Set screen

yyyy-mm-dd = year, month, and day the image was taken

ipaddr_name = IP address and name of the camera

1 = last sub-folder

13_22_10.jpg = file name

Record:

Makes a recording of the video (the color of the button turns to red to indicate that the camera is in record mode). The video is stored in a format that can only be viewed by the Replay option.

The recording is saved to the location specified in the Record file path field on the Local Set screen (see “Local Set Screen” on page 6-38), and is named according to the timestamp at which it was taken, and is placed in a sub-folder created by the system.

For example, if the specified location is C:\XDNVS, and the video is taken at 13:22:10, then the path to the video would be:

• Reboot – causes the camera to reboot. For more information about this option, see “Rebooting the G4-CAM” on page 6-50.



Video Screen

NOTE: It is recommended that you leave the default settings for the Video Coding options. Changing these setting could cause poor video quality.

The Video screen is displayed when you click Video on the main window.

Title:

Indicates the name of the video, which will be displayed in the lower left corner of the video.

Color:

Indicates the color of the on screen data display.



OSD:

(On Screen Display) Indicates which camera information is overlaid on the video.

• Title – displays the title on the video.

• Date – displays the date on the video.

• Time – displays the time on the video.

• Week – displays the day of the week on the video.

• Date Format – indicates the format the date is to be displayed in.

• Frame/Bitrate – displays the frame rate and bitrate on the video.

• Position – used to adjust the placement of the text on the video.

Video Coding:

NOTE: It is recommended that you leave the default settings for these options. Changing these setting could cause poor video quality.

Defines how the video is encoded.

• Coding – type of video compression to be used:

– H.264: low bitrate streaming without any reduction of image quality. The size of data streaming from this compression format can be up to 80% less than MJPEG. This means that bandwidth load across the network is significantly lower than MJPEG. Note, this is the recommended setting.

– MJPEG (Motion JPEG): compresses each frame a JPEG image. This is an older compression format and should only be used when users have legacy equipment already using this format. Note, use this format only if the network bandwidth is 10Mbps or higher and there is a specific reason for using this format.

• Image – indicates the image resolution.

For NTSC format, the following resolutions are available:

– 704*480 -This is the full resolution of the camera (also referred to as D1 resolution). Note, this is the recommended setting. This resolution is required for the data overlay feature to properly display.

– 352*240 - Quarter Screen (also referred to as CIF resolution)

For PAL format, the following resolutions are available:

– 704*576 - This is the full resolution of the camera (also referred to as D1 resolution).

– 352*288 - Quarter Screen (also referred to as CIF resolution)

• Quality – sets the video coding parameters to a suggested state based on the coding and image settings:– Fine - parameters with a higher bitrate.– Normal - parameters with a median bitrate.– Basic - parameters with a low bitrate.

• Advanced – enables the video coding options to be configured individually.



• I frame interval – sets the frame interval rate when the network bandwidth needs to be optimized. The range is 1-200. The lower the frame interval, the better the image quality. The recommended value is twice the frame rate

• Frame rate – sets the number of frames per second. The range is 1-30 for NTSC and 1-25 for PAL. The recommended value is the maximum value. Only reduce the frames per second when network bandwidth needs to be optimized.

• Rate control – sets whether the bit rate is variable (VBR) or constant (CBR).

– VBR: the bit rate will vary depending on the amount of motion within the camera view.

– CBR: the bit rate will be held more constant. During times with a lot of motion within the camera view the bit rate will be limited.

• Bitrate – bit rate to be used for video transmission. The range is 30-16384 Kbps. Higher bit rates will have better image quality but will require higher network bandwidth. The recommended value is 2048 Kbps.

• Quality – This second quality parameter is related to the Rate Control and Bitrate settings. The range is 1-6. The lower the value, the higher the quality of the video. Normally the setting is set to 3-4.

When the Rate control is set to VBR: a setting of 1 equates to higher quality.

When the Rate control is set to CBR:

– 1 = the software sets the bitrate automatically according to the bitrate value

– 2 = the bitrate value +/- 10%– 3 = the bitrate value +/- 20%– 4 = the bitrate value +/- 30%– 5 = the bitrate value +/- 40%– 6 = the bitrate value +/- 50%

• LAN/WAN – (available if the Advanced check box is selected) sets video coding parameters to a suggested state based on the coding and image settings.



Network Screen

Caution!

Always document any changes to this screen. Changing network settings could cause the camera to become unreachable.

The Network screen is displayed when you click Network on the main window.

Basic Parameters:

• Enable DHCP – If selected, the G4-CAM will receive its IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway configuration from a DHCP server.

This is known as ‘Dynamic IP Addressing.” The address is assigned to the G4-CAM for the duration of a single session. The next time a session is established with the camera, a different IP address may be assigned. Dynamic IP addresses are most frequently assigned on LANs and broadband networks and are used because it avoids the administrative burden of assigning specific static addresses to each device on a network. It also allows many devices to



share limited address space on a network if only some of them will be online at a particular time.

This setting is most commonly used when DDNS is selected.

NOTE: This type of addressing is NOT recommended for G4-CAM operations.

• IP address – the static IP address that will be used by the G4-CAM on the local network.

• Subnet mask – the subnet mask of the static IP address.

• Gateway – the IP address of the gateway device which forwards data packets to and from the Internet.

• MAC – (Media Access Control) a unique identifier for each G4-CAM. This address is set at the factory and should not be changed.

• Data port no. – the TCP port number used to set up and maintain a video stream from an G4-CAM. The default setting is 5000.

• HTTP port no. – the TCP port number used to connect to the camera for web (HTTP) access using a web browser The default setting is 80.

• Preferred DNS – the preferred IP address for a Domain Name System (DNS) server.

• Alternate DNS – the alternate IP address for a DNS server.

PPPOE Parameters:

Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet is commonly used where one device, such as the G4-CAM, will connect to another device, such as a DSL modem, to establish a dial out connection to the Internet.

• Enable PPPOE – the G4-CAM will use the PPPOE parameters.

• PPPOE URL – the URL for the PPPOE connection.

• PPPOE username – the name that will be used to log onto the DSL dial-up account.

• PPPOE password – the password that will be used to log onto the DSL dial-up account.

DDNS Parameters:

Dynamic Domain Name Server (DDNS) specifies the settings and operation of the protocol that allows a networked device such as the G4-CAM, using the Internet communications protocols, to tell a Domain Name Server to change, in real time, the active DNS configuration of host names, addresses, or other information stored in that Domain Name Server. This means that even though the IP address of the G4-CAM might be changing, the host name will be identifiable using standard DNS queries. The DNS server is used to translate domain names assigned to devices in a network into IP addresses. For example, the G4-CAM may be assigned to www.example.com rather than something like 192.100.101.254.

• Enable DDNS – the G4-CAM will use the DDNS parameters.



• DDNSprovider – the provider of the DDNS network.

• DDNS regName – the username that is registered with the DNS.

• DDNS password – the password that is associated with the username.

• DDNS domain – the domain for the DNS.

• DDNS server URL – the URL for the DDNS.

• DDNS server port – the server port for the DDNS. The default value is 30000.

• Data port map no. – the data port for the DDNS. The default value is 5000.

• HTTP port map no. – the HTTP port for the DDNS. The default value is 80.

Indicates whether the video stream is to be set to the Preferred or Alternate configuration.

NOTE: The Preferred and Alternate ideo settings are configured on the Video screen page (see “Video Screen” on page 6-27).

Preview mode:

Indicates the priority setting for viewing video.

• Fluency – the G4-CAM caches the video and tries to recover bad frames for a smooth view. This may cause a slight delay in the video.

• Real time – the G4-CAM does not cache the video, and therefore, does not try to recover bad frames.

Reset Mosaic:

When enabled, the camera tries to minimize the distortion artifacts when representing a high-resolution image at a lower resolution. This helps smooth out the video.

Record file packet time:

Indicates the length, in minutes, for each packet of video that is to be recorded (see “Live View Screen” on page 6-22).

For example: If the value here is 20, and you record one hour of video, three 20 minutes video files will be saved to the hard drive.



Record file path:

Indicates the base location on the hard drive where the video and image files will be stored.

NOTES:

• It is recommended that you use the default location, C:\XDNVS.

• When image and video files are saved, the system adds additional sub-folders to the base location. For more information, see the discussion of “Snap:” and “Record:” on page 6-23.

Save:

Saves any changes made.



Image Set Screen

The Image Set screen is used to set brightness, contrast, chroma, and saturation parameters for the image.

Move the slider bars to adjust the following (the changes are applied as you move the individual sliders for each option):

• Brightness (Bri.) – When moved, the slider adjusts the brightness level of the video signal. Brightest signal occurs when the slider is all the way to the right.

• Contrast (Con.) – When moved, the slider adjusts the contrast level of the video signal. Most contrast in the signal occurs when the slider is all the way to the right.

• Chroma (Chr.) – When moved, the slider adjusts the perceived intensity of color in the video signal. Highest intensity occurs when the slider is all the way to the right.

• Saturation (Sat.) – When moved, the slider adjusts the saturation of the video signal colors. Most saturation occurs when the slider is all the way to the right. The saturation of a color is determined by a combination of light intensity and how of the light is distributed across the spectrum of different wavelengths.

Recommended Action: Install ActiveX (see “Installing ActiveX” on page 6-9).

If the problem persists, contact Technical Support.

Situation: Unable to communicate from the RTMS to a PC through the Ethernet connection

Possible Cause: RTMS parameters are not set correctly.

Recommended Action: Check the RTMS screen (see “Setting the RTMS Parameters” on page 6-19).

The Baudrate should be 115,200 and the Port 2000.

1. Set the values as shown above.

2. Click Save.

3. Refresh the screen and verify that the settings are retained.

You may need to click off the screen and back to it again for the screen to refresh.

4. If the screen did not retain the settings or looks like the following, continue with Step 5.



5. Reboot the camera by one of the following methods.

• Use the System screen (see “Rebooting the G4-CAM” on page 6-50).

• Cycle power off then on.

6. After the reboot is complete, log in and return to the RTMS screen. If the port number is still incorrect, contact Technical Support.



Situation: Unable to connect to the G4-CAM via Internet Explorer

Possible Cause: The following are possible causes for this situation.

• You entered an incorrect IP Address (see action Step 1).

• Network is disconnected (see action Step 2).

• IP address has been occupied by another device (see action Step 3).

• IP addresses are in different subnets (see action Step 4).

• Physical address of network conflict with G4-CAM (see action Step 5).

• Unknown (see action Step 6).

Recommended Action: Try each of the actions separately. If an action clears up the problem, do not continue with the others.

1. Verify the IP address you entered and retry the operation.

The unit ships with an IP address of 192.168.55.160 (and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0). Try entering this number to connect.

2. Verify that your PC is connected to the network and that the network is operational.

3. Reset the IP address of the camera.

a) Disconnect the G4-CAM Ethernet cable from the network.

b) Connect the Ethernet cable from G4-CAM directly to the PC.

c) Reset the IP address of the camera (see “Connecting to the G4-CAM for the First Time” on page 6-8).

4. Check the IP address of the PC and G4-CAM. The PC and the camera need to have the same subnet. For example, the G4-CAM should be 192.168.55.160 and the PC should share the 192.168.55. and have a separate number for the last three digits.

5. Modify the IP address of the G4-CAM.

6. Restore the factory defaults (see “Restoring the System to Factory Defaults” on page 6-49).

Doing a restore resets the IP address and subnet mask of the camera to 192.168.55.160 and 255.255.255.0.




Situation: Video seems intermittent or pixilated

Possible Cause: There are three possible causes for this situation:

• The frame rate of the G4-CAM is set too low (see action Step 1).

• Too many users are viewing the images (see action Step 2).

• The bandwidth is low (see action Step 3).

Recommended Action: Try each of the actions separately. If an action clears up the problem, do not continue with the others.

1. Improve the video frame rate.

a) Go to the Video screen (see “Video Screen” on page 6-27).

b) Deselect the Advanced check box.

c) In the Quality field above the Advanced check box, select any value to return the settings to their default values.

d) Click Save.

2. Block some of the viewers or reduce the video frame rate on the Video screen (see “Video Screen” on page 6-27).

3. Reduce either the video frame rate or bitrate on the Video screen (see “Video Screen” on page 6-27).
