2 of 10 View Manager 96 System Overview The View Manager 96 (VM96) video security management system is used to monitor and record surveillance activities. In addition, it may be configured to sense and respond to alarm situations using its programmed logic. Figure 1 shows a basic video system. It consists ...

3 of 10 Video System Equipment Although each installation differs, all systems include common devices. The VM96 console, Touch Tracker controllers, J-boxes (junction boxes), domes, fixed cameras, and monitors are common among installations. VCRs, I/O modules, remote Touch Trackers and Sensorlink PC are op ...

4 of 10 Remote Touch Tracker The Remote Touch Tracker allows the direction of VM96 operations from a remote location that cannot be reached by SensorNet communications. The remote Touch Tracker functions as a "dumb terminal". All button activation and tracker ball data are sent to a local Touch Tracker fo ...

5 of 10 Communication Protocols The VM96 Console supports RS-422 and SensorNet protocols. The type of cable and J-box used depends on the protocol selected. Table 2 provides a comparison between the protocols. Note: To help decide which communication protocol to use, refer to Communication Protocols and C ...

6 of 10 Cable Networks You need to decide which cable network to use (star or daisy-chain/backbone) and how devices will attach to the network. This decision determines data cable routing between the J-Boxes and VM96, and which devices require termination. Note: To help decide which cable network to use, ...

7 of 10 Typical Installation Sequence Installation typically occurs in the following sequence: 1. Run composite cables between the dome and J-Box locations. 2. Run video trunk lines from J-Box locations to the VM96 console location (one per J-Box dome position, plus one spare per J-Box). 3. Run SensorNet ...
