1.2 Product Description
The DVMRe Triplex is a video multiplexer capable of recording from multiple cameras to an internal
hard drive while simultaneously providing playback. Unlike outdated time-lapse VCRs, the DVMRe
Triplex records high-resolution pictures. Digital recording improves playback quality over VCRs, and
eliminates the hassle of cleaning heads, changing tapes or servicing motors. The unit can also be
programmed to record continuously by overwriting the oldest recorded data. Depending on the setup,
the DVMRe Triplex can store from a few hours to more than 3 years of color images.
Programmable search features eliminate time consuming Fast Forwarding or Rewinding of tapes,
searching for critical data. Search for recorded images or events by alarm, time, date, motion, video
loss, camera number and ASCII cash register or ATM text.
Caution! This products primary purpose is to furnish video multiplexing and recording.
Although the unit has alarm handling and motion detection functions, they are considered
secondary features. This unit should not be the only alarm device on site.

Camera Inputs
Cable: 75-Ohm Coaxial
Connectors: BNC
There are two BNC jacks for each camera. Either
jack can receive a camera signal. The signal is
looped (directly connected to the other jack), making
the camera signal available to other equipment.
Auto Terminating: Yes
Passive Looping: Yes
The camera input connectors are Auto Terminating.
This means that the input signal will automatically be terminated with 75-Ohms unless a 2nd cable is
connected to the 2nd BNC connector of the same camera input. Make sure there is 75-Ohm
termination at the end of the video line if the signal is looped through the DVMRe Triplex.
Time base correction is performed during digital capture. As a result, cameras do not require
synchronization.
See section 3.14 for information about disabling unused camera jacks in the menu system.
Composite Monitor Output
Cable: 75-Ohm Coaxial
When connecting directly from the DVMRe Triplex to
the monitor, select the 75-Ohm impedance setting on
the monitor.
Connectors: BNC
If an additional device is connected to the monitor’s looping output, set the termination of the additional
device as 75-Ohm, and set the termination of the monitor as Hi-Z (High Impedance).
Y/C Monitor Output
Cable: 75-Ohm Coaxial
Y/C video output has a 4-pin mini-DIN style
connector. This style of connection is also referred to
as SVHS and S-Video.
Connectors: BNC
Alarm I/O Port
The back panel of the unit is equipped with an Alarm

About Events: An Event is an action that the unit acknowledges by recording at the
Event Record Rate, yet it is not cause for an Alarm. Events may be created two ways,
via RS232 text insertion and Activity detection.
NOTE
Example of an Event: A camera is pointed at the front door inside the lobby during
business hours. With the Event Camera Settings Type set to Event, the unit does not
record while the doorway is empty. When activity motion detection senses that
someone is entering or leaving the doorway, the unit begins recording at the Event
Record Rate and stops recording when the motion ceases.
RS232 Event: See section 9 for information about generating an Event via RS232, and
optionally inserting ASCII text to mark the Event.
Activity Detection Event: See Setup Parameters in section 3.13 for detailed
information about configuring activity detection as an event in the menu system.
Pre Event Duration: The unit will record up to 5 seconds of data ahead of the event trigger, at the
Event Record Rate. Select from 0 to 5 seconds.
Post Event Duration: The unit will record up to 250 seconds after the completion of the Event, at the
Event Record Rate. Select from 0 to 250 seconds.
Event Associated Cameras: Enter up to three camera numbers to be associated with this event.
q
Main Menu ® Record ® Timelapse Record Rate
The unit records at the Timelapse Record Rate under normal conditions, when there are no alarms,
events, or activity present. Record rates are measured in both Pictures Per Second (pps) and Seconds
Per Picture (spp).
The maximum record rate per camera is inversely proportional to the number of cameras connected to
the unit. The fewer cameras connected, the higher the maximum record rate for each camera, and vice
versa. The maximum record rate for multiple cameras is 48pps (NTSC)(40pps PAL). The maximum
record rate for a single camera is 30pps (NTSC)(25pps PAL).
The bottom right corner of the menu contains a record duration calculator. The top line indicates the
estimated recording time for the unit in Time-lapse record mode only. The bottom line indicates the
estimated recording time, taking into consideration the amount of time the unit will spend in Activity,
Event, and/or Alarm record mode.

Activity Vs. Intrusion
Activity Detection is a simple type of motion detection having only a sensitivity setting and a relay
output. Intrusion Detection is a more sophisticated type of motion detection, with additional features
such as false alarm rejection levels, minimum target size, and an alarm output.
Activity Detection Setup
If Activity is selected in Motion Detection Type field, the following parameters are enabled:
0150-0193F

Kalatel DVMRe Triplex
Relay Output: The unit may be configured to activate a relay output when motion detection is
present. Select either 1, 2, 1+2 (both relays), or None.
Link to Event: Selecting Yes in this menu will activate the event record speed when activity detection
is present.
Intrusion Detection Setup
If Intrusion is selected in Motion Detection Type field, the following parameters are enabled:
Sensitivity: Rotate the Shuttle to change the motion detection sensitivity, 10 being the most
sensitive.
Rejection: Configure the unit’s false alarm rejection feature by selecting Low, Medium, or High.
These settings are based on the number of simultaneously triggered zones and the persistence of
motion in a scene. The Low setting is the most sensitive to motion. The Medium setting will filter out
most false alarm situations due to sudden luminance changes over the whole scene (clouds passing
over). The High setting will filter out sudden luminance changes as well as spurious motion events
that do not persist for a number of frames (a bird flying past the lens).
Target Size: This setting is the minimum number of zones (from the 16 x 16 grid) that must be
activated simultaneously before it is considered to be valid motion.
Link To Alarm: Select the alarm number that you wish to activate when motion detection is activated.

If both the start and end bits are clear, the associated text will be stored with the next recorded field for
that camera. That cameras record rate will not be changed.
B – Alarm/Event 0x01
If only the start bit is set, the associated text will be stored with the next recorded field for that camera.
This will cause the selected camera, as well as any pre-event fields to be recorded at the Alarm or
Event Record Rate.
C – Alarm/Event 0x02
If only the end bit is set, the associated text will be stored with the next recorded field for that camera.
This will start the post-event timer** after which, the selected camera will resume recording at the
normal record rate*.

When a message of type 0xBB is sent to the
DVMRe Triplex, it will respond by sending 16
bytes of requested data.
Byte 1: 0xFF
Byte 2: Command Type
0xAA: (SET) Update DVMRe with data.
0xBB: (GET) Extract data from DVMRe.
Byte 3: Data Length (n)

When the "Read Alarm History List" message is
received by the DVMRe Triplex, it responds by
sending a start byte 0xFF, followed by ASCII
strings for every alarm event in its alarm history
list, and a stop byte, 0xFF. Each string is
formatted as follows:
Byte 5: Data byte 1
Byte 6: Data byte 2

Configuration data can be sent to the DVMRe
Triplex, to change the way it operates. The
data is arranged in the form of 16 byte blocks,
numbered from 1 to 213. Blocks 182, 183 and
185 are status blocks, and hence cannot be
written to. For details about the contents of
each block, contact GE-Interlogix and request
the Block Data Structure for the DVMRe
Triplex.
Example: 03. 11/27 22:48:58 15
b) Read data from DVMRe Triplex
Configuration and status data can be read from
the DVMRe Triplex. The data is arranged in the
form of 16 byte blocks, numbered from 1 to 213.
For details about the contents of each block,
contact GE-Interlogix and request the Block
Data Structure for the DVMRe Triplex.
Byte 1: 0xFF
Byte 2: 0xAA
Byte 3: 17
Byte 4: 0xFE
Byte 5: Block Number
(1-181, 184, 186-213)
Byte 6: data[0]
Byte 1: 0xFF
Byte 2: 0xBB
Byte 3: 1
Byte 4: 0xFF
Byte 5: Block Number 1-213 or 255 if all
blocks are requested.
:
:
:
:
Byte 21:data[15]
The DVMRe Triplex responds to the “Read data”
request by sending all the requested data bytes
consecutively, without any start or stop bytes.
After sending a block or series of blocks, block
number 255 must be updated to signal the end of
the configuration session. All data bytes for block
255 must be set to 0.
A total of either 16 bytes or 3408 bytes will be
transmitted, depending on whether a single block
or all the blocks were requested.
