Physical Description
Front Panel
BNC video input
The 75Ohms resistance video port should be used for connecting an external camera. To ensure that the
video modulation type is properly detected, the camera should be attached and powered on before the
DDK-3000 Video Encoder is powered on.
BNC video output
The looping video-out port can be used to pass through the analog video signal to an NTSC monitor or
recording device.
RCA audio input
Audio input is configured via the RCA mono-audio, line-in connector. A pre-amp is required to drive an
external microphone used to capture audio.

Rear Panel
Ethernet 10/100 socket
The RJ45 port should be used to connect the DDK-3000 Video Encoder to an Ethernet network via a UTP
category 5 cable. Ensure that the encoder is connected to the local area network before applying power to
the unit. Distance between the DDK-3000 Video Encoder and the network switch should not exceed 300
feet.
Status LED
The DDK-3000 Video Encoder provides an LED to show its status. Refer to the “Troubleshooting”
appendix for detail.
General I/O terminal block
1 DI- INPUT (Initial state of DI is low)
2 DI+ INPUT (Max. 50mA, 12VDC)
3 SW_COMMON OUTPUT (open from SW_OPEN at initial state) (close with
SW_OPEN when set DO to ON)
4 SW_OPEN OUTPUT (Max. 1A, 24VDC or 0. 5A, 125VAC)
The DDK-3000 Video Encoder provides a general I/O terminal block with one digital input and one relay
switch for device control. Pin 1 and pin 2 can be connected to an external sensor device and the state of
voltage will be monitored from the initial state ‘LOW.’ The relay switches of pins 3 and 4 can be used
to turn the external device on or off.
Restore button
A recessed button on the back of the unit can be used to restore the system to factory default settings.
Refer to the “Troubleshooting” appendix for details.
Power adapter
To activate the unit, connect the power jack of the included 12VDC power adapter. Connecting the power
adapter should be the last operation when physically installing the DDK-3000 Video Encoder.
Consult with the dealer of peripheral devices for correct installation.

Installation
Hardware installation
Before installing one or more DDK-3000 Video Encoders at their desired locations, the administrator
should record the serial numbers that can be found on both the unit and on the packing carton.
Cable connection
To install the DDK-3000 Video Encoder, the unit should first be connected to
a network switch via the RJ45 socket. The Ethernet cable should meet UTP
category 5 standards and not exceed 300 feet.
Power on
Make sure all cables are correctly and firmly connected before powering the DDK-3000 Video Encoder.
Turn on cameras, sensors, or any other alarm inputs and then plug in the 12VDC power adaptor of the
DDK-3000 Video Encoder to an AC power socket. When the power adapter is plugged into the utility
socket, the front LED will alternate between green and red for several cycles. After completing the self-
test, the LED will remain green, indicating that the Video Encoder is in standby mode for receiving an IP
address. After getting an IP Address, the LED should blink green every second. Otherwise refer to
Appendix A for troubleshooting.
Installation
In this manual, “User” refers to whoever has access to the DDK-3000 Video Encoder, and
“Administrator” refers to the person who can configure the encoder and grant user access to the device.
Following the hardware installation, users can utilize the Installation Wizard program included in the
product CD-ROM to locate the DDK-3000 Video Encoder on the network. If multiple encoders are
present on the local network, users can differentiate the devices by their serial numbers. The serial number
is printed on the packing carton and also on the DDK-3000 Video Encoder. Please refer to the user’s
manual of the Installation Wizard for detail.
Once installation is complete, the Administrator should proceed to the next section, “Initial Access to the
Video Encoder,” for necessary checks and configurations.
Connect the jack of the power adapter to DDK-3000 Video Encoder prior to plugging the utility end
into the utility power socket. This will reduce accidental electrical surge.
Consult with the dealer of the peripherals for correct installation.

Initial Access to the Video Encoder
Check Network Settings
Once the Installer program has been used to assign an IP address to the DDK-3000 Video Encoder, the
unit can be accessed immediately over the local network. The Administrator should complete the network
settings on the configuration page of the unit, including the correct subnet mask and IP address of
gateway and DNS. Ask your network administrator or Internet service provider for this information.
Unless programmed otherwise, the DDK-3000 Video Encoder requires that the Administrator run the
Installer program each time it reboots. If the network settings are to remain unchanged, this option should
be disabled. Refer to “Network settings” on the System Configuration page for details. If any setting is
entered incorrectly and the unit cannot proceed with system setup, the encoder should be reset to factory
default settings. Follow the steps in the “Troubleshooting” chapter of the Appendix.
Add Password for Authentication
The default Administrator’s password is blank and the DDK-3000 Video Encoder initially will not prompt
the user for a password. Following installation, the Administrator should immediately assign a new
password as a matter of prudent security practice. Once the Administrator’s password is saved, the DDK-
3000 Video Encoder will ask for the user’s name and password before granting access. The Administrator
can set up a maximum of twenty (20) user accounts. Each user can access the DDK-3000 Video Encoder
but only the Administrator’s password will provide access to the system configuration menus. Some
critical functions are exclusive to the Administrator, such as system configuration, user administration,
and software upgrades. The user name for the Administrator is permanently assigned as “root.” Once the
password is changed, the browser will display an authentication window to ask for the new password.
Once the root password is set, there is no provision for the Administrator to recover it. The only option is
to restore the unit to the factory default settings.

How to Use
Authentication
After the user opens the Web browser and enters the URL of the DDK-3000 Video Encoder, an
authentication window will appear requesting a username and password. Upon connection, the following
images are displayed.
The first image below shows the login address window and the second shows the authentication screen.
The user may check the option box to save the password for future convenience.

Installing Plug-in
During initial access to the DDK-3000 Video Encoder in Windows, the web browser will normally
prompt for permission to install a pop-up plug-in for the DDK-3000 Video Encoder. The permission
request depends on the Internet security settings of the user’s PC or notebook. If the highest security level
is selected, the computer may prohibit installation of the plug-in. This plug-in has been registered for
security and is required to display the video in the browser. Users should click on to proceed. If
the web browser does not allow the user to continue to install, check the Internet security options and
lower the security levels or contact your networking supervisor for help.
