CONNECTING GENEX MULTIPLEXERS
Use COM 4 to connect up to eight Genex Multiplexers to the CM6800-32X6.
1. Connect the COM IN port of the multiplexer to COM 4 on the CM6800-32X6, using the 6-foot (1.8 m) reversed data cable supplied
with the CM6800.
One reversed cable and two straight cables are supplied with the CM6800 (save the reversed cable for connecting a Genex
multiplexer, if applicable).
A straight data cable is supplied with the Genex multiplexer. Use this cable for connecting a second Genex multiplexer to the first
multiplexer, if necessary.
2. Connect the MAIN monitor output from the multiplexer to any of the camera inputs on the CM6800-32X6.
3. Connect cameras to the multiplexer and then loop them to the CM6800. Refer to the MX4000 Genex Series Simplex and Duplex
Multiplexers Installation/Operation Manual for detailed camera connection instructions. Terminate the video loop at the CM6800.
4. If required, you can connect a total of eight Genex multiplexers through COM 4. Daisy-chain the multiplexers by connecting a
straight data cable from the COM OUT port on the first multiplexer to the COM IN port on the second multiplexer; connect the COM
OUT port on the second multiplexer to the COM IN port on the third multiplexer. Continue to the eighth multiplexer, if necessary.
Refer to the
System Start-Up
section for additional configuration steps required when using a Genex Multiplexer.
