NOTE: The LTC 2600 Series multiplexers are configured to record and playback from a wide range of VCRs.
The VCR provides a pulse (VEXT) each time a video field is recorded to tape. This signal lets the multiplexer
know that it can switch to a new camera. This feature also simplifies installation by synchronizing the normal
and alarm recording speeds. You will need to decide how you are going to synchronize the multiplexer and the
VCR. The options are:
(a) Connect and enable the VEXT output from the VCR and then choose the recording speed of the VCR. This
is the simplest and recommended method of synchronizing the multiplexer to the VCR. (Follow steps 13-14).
(b) If VEXT is not available, specify the VCR model and time lapse mode. Begin at step 15 (skip 13-14).
13. Connect the VEXT output from the VCR (CAM SW Out or Record Out) to Pin 21 (White/Black/Red) and
Ground to Pin 25 (White/Black/Blue) of the Alarm In/Out (cable supplied).
14. From the VCR Setup menu, select RECORD SETUP, then move to the VEXT INPUT selection. Switch it to the
ON setting (the factory default is OFF).
15.The alternate method for synchronization of the multiplexer and the VCR requires (a) selecting the appropriate
VCR model, and then (b) selecting the identical setting in the VCR time-lapse menu.
