The REDWALL SIP-IP range are designed to be POE compliant and integrate seamlessly with major video management systems providers. Here we explain how you connect and setup the SIP-IP range using the PIE-1 decoder.
The SIP-IP-Box series detectors come with PIE-1 IP decoder allowing the detector integration with IP VMS (video Management system)/ PSIM (physical security Information system). The PIE-1 encoder converts analog relay outputs to original ASCII code (Redwall Event Code). Video Management Software receives the event code and sends a command to reposition to a pre-set and/or start recording with a camera.
Assembly Mounting
PIE-1 decoder is fitted inside the enclosure and attached to the Redwall SIP detector.
Remove the enclosure cover, locate the to mounting pass through the screw holes and use these to mount the enclosure to the wall or pole with the gland socket facing down. Connect the gland, and insert the PIE one module.
Connections
The REDWALL SIP detector relay terminals connect to the PIE-1 decoder via a pass-through hole in the enclosure and the Redwall SIP base.
Each colour-coded pair from PIE-1 decoder module is connected to the SIP output terminal. The power output from PIE1- output is used to power the SIP detector.
PIE-1 module connects with LAN cable the PoE IP network to power both the PIE-1 and Redwall SIP detector and to receive alarm events from the SIP detector.
Configuring PIE-1
Login in PIE-1 using a web browser, the default user ID and password:
User ID: PIE-1
Password: OPTEX
In case the password is lost, PIE-1 may be reset to factory default using the reset button.
Navigate to the configuration menu. Under I/O configuration check the connected wires, change the settings as required and save.
Under event code configuration specify the transmission mode and the IP address of the Video Management system (VMS ) or PSIM (physical security information management) system.
