OVERVIEW

OVERIVEW  
1. Introduction  
What is ELX4-60?  
ELX4-60 supports 4 analog video channels and 12 IP video channels simultaneously. Video, Audio, and  
Text Event-Logs are digitized and stored on two internal hard-drives. Using a ‘Proprietary Wavelet  
Algorithm,’ average file size is 1-5KB while still maintaining clarity high enough for facial-recognition.  
In addition, Wa velet -compressed images are impossible to manipulate.  
Due to our proprietary Wavelet Algorithm, the ELX4-60 processes analog vid eo into crisp, clear, and  
court-admissible pictures that are up to 500% smaller than comparable JPEG images. With this efficiency,  
ELX4-60 records over 30 days on a 200GB hard disk drive when recording 4 channels at the speed of  
10ips per channel. ELX4 -60 also allows users to record and playback audio for one channel.  
Setting-up ELX4 -60 is as easy as setting up a VCR. ELX4-60 starts to record as soon as power is  
supplied and CCTV cameras are connected. ELX4-60 offers an easy setup, as well as advanced menus.  
With ‘Quick Setup , ELX4-60 can be setup and begin recording in as little as 5 minutes. The default  
settings offer quality and efficiency without the hassle of confusing menus.  
Equipped with (3) IEEE 1394 ports (Fire-Wire) and (3) USB ports, ELX4-60 can expand its recording  
capacity to up to 4TB easily. For easy backup, Windows (FAT32) formatted HDD is compatible with  
ELX4-60. Simply back up the desired data and connect the HDD to your PC to review critical images.

There are three menus for recording setup; Quick Setup, Normal Recording, Alarm Recording menu  
in Configuration Menu. Quick Setup is the easiest set-up, activating all four analog cameras to record  
with the same settings and conditions. Normal recording is the standard recording settings and can be  
customized based on time and channel. Alarm recording is the recording schedule based on alarm  
conditions (Motion Detection, Sensors, etc.) Also, Quick Setup has time setting menu.  
5.1.1. Date/Time  
When ELX4-60 is manufactured in factory, time zone will be set as “GMT + 9:00.  
Set the time to local time zone.  
Changing ELX4-60 time may cause time conflict with recorded images. In this case, it is strongly  
recommended to re-format the hard drives after making changes.  
Button control  
- Press [MENU] button on ELX4 -60 front panel.  
- Move to “Quick Setup” menu (First tab on the Configuration menu).  
- Move to “Date/Time” below “Quick Setup ” using downward arrow button on ELX4-60 front panel.

This page is to define network type and set network addresses forELX4-60.  
Type  
This is to select proper network interface (Ethernet/xDSL) with which ELX4 -60 is connected. If ELX4 -60  
is connected with Internet dedicated line, cable modem line or on LAN environment, select network  
interface as ‘Ethernet.’  
If ELX4-60 is connected on xDSL line that needs PPPoE process to connect to the Internet, administrator  
should select ‘xDSL.’ However, if the xDSL line does not need PPPoE process, administrator should  
select ‘Ethernet ,’ even though ELX4-60 is connected on xDSL line.  
DHCP  
Basically, this menu is for the lines that have Ethernet interfaces such as Internet dedicated line, cable  
modem line and LAN. If administrator activates ‘DHCP’ menu, all addresses are set automatically by  
ELX4-60 detecting them from DHCP server of your ISP. The detected addresses are not displayed on the  
screen. The addresses do not need to be entered manually unless ‘DHCP’ is disabled.

5.7.7.3. HRS  
When a ELX4 -60 is installed under the environment of Cable Modem or xDSL Modem connection, its  
IP address changes whenever it reconnects to the Internet Service Provider (the ELX4-60 has a  
Dynamic or Floating IP address). In this case users who don’t know the changed IP address cannot  
get access to the ELX4-60. ELX4-60 with dynamic IP should be registered to the RUGGED CCTV  
Registration Server (HRS) server in order to make it easy for users to find the changed IP address,  
when they want to access the ELX4-60.  
To register dynamic IP address to HRS, configure the descriptions below. If using xDSL modem or Cable  
modem, configuration should be the same.  
HRS Interval  
HRS Interval should be set at 3600 seconds. This designates the frequency the ELX4-60 will update  
information to the HRS. If the interval is set lower than 3600 seconds, RUGGED CCTV cannot guarantee  
connectivity. If the HRS received too many updates, it may close the connection to the unit. The HRS  
maintains registered units on the server list for two days. If no signal is received before two days, the  
HRS will delete the unit from the register.  
HRS URL  
This is to configure a server address for registration. HRS address of Rugged CCTV is “www.rugged-

Appendix #2 Utilizing IP Addresses on Local Network  
#2.1 Introduction  
Most of our businesses are done via Internet, lately. We play with information by transmitting through e-  
mails and searching the world of Internet. IP address is what we utilize to access to the Internet.  
Currently used IP addresses are limited. And there are 5 classes’ networks in the world for now, and a  
network contains lots of IP addresses. A network can hold limited IP addresses. The numbers depend on  
network class. 5 classes are from A to E, and the most common one is C class network.

2) Network class  
A class: A network that contains IP addresses from 0 to 127 at room ‘X1’.  
Network ID: X1  
Host ID: X2, X3, X4  
Total number of A-class networks is 128 in the world.  
B class: A network that contains IP addresses from 127 to 191 at room ‘X1’.  
Network ID: X1, X2  
Host ID: X3, X4  
Total number of B-class networks is 65,534 in the world.  
C class: A network that contains IP addresses from 192 to 223 at room ‘X1 ’.  
Network ID: X1, X2, X3  
Host ID: X4  
It is the most common network in the world, and the total number of C-class networks is  
2,097,152  
D class: A network that contains IP addresses from 224 to 239 at room ‘X1 ’. D-class network is for  
multicasting, and it is not allowed to use for common users.  
E class: A network that contains IP addresses from 240 to 225 at room ‘X1’. E-class network is  
reserved.

#2.3 C-class Network  
1) Features of Addresses  
IP address: Three digits number in room ‘X4’ are for Host ID, and the numbers are from 0 to 255.  
Among the numbers, 0 is used for Network ID, 1 is used for Router IP (Gateway address) and 255 is  
used for Broadcast address. Therefore the numbers from 2 to 244 are IP addresses that can be assigned  
to, i-Rec B104, PC etc.  
Network ID : It is to identify a network. Generally the first number is assigned as Network ID.  
Gateway address : It is an IP address of router that is connecting Internet and local network. Remote  
users can access local network over Internet through the gateway (router). Generally the second  
number is assigned as Gateway address.  
Broadcast address: It is to broadcast to all devices that are connected on local network. Broadcast  
address is a destination for broadcasting and it is determined by calculating. All devices connected  
on local network have a same Broadcast address.  
Subnet Mask: It is to divide a local network into two remote networks. Subnet mask shows the IP  
quantity in a certain network. The numbers that can be used as subnet mask are limited (0, 4, 8, 16,  
32, 64, 128)  
2) Network configuration  
(1) To use as one network  
Network ID: xxx.xxx.xxx.0
