Video Quality Caution
Frame Rate Notice Regarding User-Selected Options
Pelco systems are capable of providing high quality video for both live viewing and playback. However, the systems can be used in lower quality
modes, which can degrade picture quality, to allow for a slower rate of data transfer and to reduce the amount of video data stored. The picture
quality can be degraded by either lowering the resolution, reducing the picture rate, or both. A picture degraded by having a reduced resolution
may result in an image that is less clear or even indiscernible. A picture degraded by reducing the picture rate has fewer frames per second,
which can result in images that appear to jump or move more quickly than normal during playback. Lower frame rates may result in a key event
not being recorded by the system.
Judgment as to the suitability of the products for users’ purposes is solely the users’ responsibility. Users shall determine the suitability of the
products for their own intended application, picture rate and picture quality. In the event users intend to use the video for evidentiary purposes in
a judicial proceeding or otherwise, users should consult with their attorney regarding any particular requirements for such use.

Description
The Pelco VMX300(-E) video management system uses a Windows®-based interface to control any combination of analog and IP devices in a
single integrated video security system. With a mouse, you can click a camera icon on a system map and then drag it to a video display window.
Mapping configurations and a visual interface allow you to easily control the following devices:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Matrix switchers (CM6700, CM6800, CM9740, CM9760, CM9770, CM9780)
PelcoNet™ MPEG Series transmission systems (NET300 Series, NET350 Series, NET4001A)
DX8000 (software version level 1.1.00.1121 or higher) and DX9000 Series digital video recorders
NVR300 Series network video recorders
Spectra® and Esprit® camera positioning systems
CM9760-ALM and CM9760-REL input/output devices
VMX300 provides control and monitoring of CCTV equipment in a client-to-server configuration. VMX300-E provides control and monitoring of
CCTV equipment in the following configurations: client-to-server; multiple clients-to-server; client-to-multiple servers; or server-to-server.
Each VMX300(-E) system must have at least one workstation with server software. Workstations with server software always include client
software and, therefore, are called client/server workstations. A VMX300 system can have only one client/server workstation. A VMX300-E
system can have multiple client/server workstations.
Each VMX300(-E) system must have at least one workstation with client software. This can be the client/server workstation, described above, or
you can add a separate workstation with only client software to the system. Each VMX300(-E) system can have multiple client workstations in
addition to the client/server workstation.
Your system administrator configures your system using the VMX300(-E) server software, and then launches the VMX300(-E) server into “run”
mode. A system operator uses the VMX300(-E) client software to view and control the area under surveillance. The operator can connect to the
VMX300(-E) system from the client/server workstation, or from a separate client workstation. With the VMX300-E version, an operator could also
connect from another client/server workstation.

VMX300 provides control and monitoring of CCTV equipment in a client-to-server configuration. A VMX300 workstation can be a client/server
workstation (VMX300-CSVR) or a client workstation (VMX300-CL).
VMX300-CSVR workstations include both client and sever software applications. The model comes standard with licensing for the server and
client and up to 10 cameras. Licenses for up to 100 cameras can be purchased as needed.
VMX300-CL workstations include the client software application and the licensing (five per client) required for the client workstation to connect
to the server. Up to 10 additional client workstations can be connected to the VMX300 server. Note that each client added to the system
decreases the potential number of cameras (by five) that you can add to the system.
NOTE: If your system requires only one client, the client and server applications can both run on the same workstation. To optimize system
performance in a multiple-client system, each client application should run from a dedicated client workstation.

Pelco switchers that include the ASCII protocol in their software communicate directly with the VMX300(-E) workstation, as shown in Figure 2.
The ASCII protocol is native to all of the matrix switchers except for the CM9740 Series and some of the older CM9760 Series switchers. These
non-native switchers require a hardware data translator (CM9760-DT) to translate between the device’s native protocol and the ASCII protocol, as

SPECTRA/ESPRIT CONTROL CONNECTIONS
If you connected a Spectra or Esprit camera positioning system directly to a video input port on the VMX300(-E) workstation (-1 or -4 models
only), you must also connect a data cable to the VMX300(-E) workstation to provide direct camera control from the VMX300(-E).
1. Use one of the COM ports on the VMX300(-E) workstation for the control connection. Using an RS-422 COM port requires a wall block
between the VMX300(-E) and the camera. If you use an RS-232 COM port, you will need an RS-232 to RS-422 converter (user-supplied) and
power supply.
Use twisted pair wire to connect the Spectra or Esprit receivers to the COM port or the converter. You can daisy-chain (connect a series of
cameras) from the Rx+ and Rx- connections on the first Spectra or Esprit to additional units.
NOTE: The Spectra III™ D protocol provides a feedback option. “Feedback” refers to positioning data that is sent from the camera to the
VMX300(-E). This positioning data rotates the camera icon viewed on the map in the VMX300(-E) client, based on the actual physical position
of the camera. To receive feedback from the Spectra III, you must also connect Rx+ and Rx- on the wall block to Tx+ and Tx- on the Spectra III.
