For circuitry with a resistance, a distinction is made between two different states:
l Not triggered: The figures show the safe state in each case (not triggered) of the detector line or the
control input for the variants "Normally opened" and "Normally closed".
l Camera alarm: If the "Normally opened" or "Normally closed" contact is operated, depending on the type
of circuit, a camera alarm is activated. Manipulations of the detector line such as interruption or short
circuit cause triggering as soon as the SmartTel no longer measures the predefined control resistance of
10 kOhm (±40%).

Vista Installation and Instruction Manual
RL Control input
RT
RL=RT=1,5 kΩ (±1%)
In the wiring variant Normally closed BS 8418 with two resistances a distinction is made between three
different states:
l Not triggered: The figure shows the safe state (not triggered) of the detector line or the control input.
l Camera alarm: If the "Normally closed" contact is operated, a camera alarm is activated.
l Sabotage alarm: If the detector line is interrupted or shorted, a sabotage alarm is activated.
Error relay
The device configuration allows designation of integrated relays as error relays in order to report certain
operating states or malfunctions using dry contacts. The status of the error relay then always corresponds to
the status of the Logfile LED on the front of SmartTel:
l Error if Logfile LED on, then error relay energised
l No error, if Logfile LED off, then error relay de-energised
Examples for possible errors reported by error relay:
l Faulty DSP
l Faulty video decoder
l Faulty clock module
l Memory error
Note: If the Error relay is not in use and the Logfile LED is illuminated Red, this indicates system
information and notification of errors, such as system errors or video signal failure.
Sabotage protection
The error relay is pulled in idle - no error. Therefore the error relay can be used as sabotage detector, as it
automatically falls off in the event of power failure (e.g. caused by cut power lines). Depending on the error
relay wiring, an interruption of the relay line itself can be reported as well.
Note: There is a theoretical possibility that sabotage protection will not work if error relay switching is not
consistent with the operating mode.

6 PTZ Control
Introduction
SmartTel is equipped with a remote control interface for direct connection of camera remote control systems
as part of standard equipment. The user remote controls all important functions of up to four or up to ten
cameras using customised menus and buttons. Remote control is executed via dialup or network connections
between SmartTel and a SmartControl or SmartControl PRO station. Other video devices such as matrices or
switches are supported as well. This chapter only deals with the main application, camera remote control.
Concept
Manufacturers of remote camera control systems use different data protocols for devices control. This results
in one of the most important functions integrated PTZ control. Remote control commands coming from the
SmartControl or SmartControl PRO station must be translated to remote control commands compatible with
the respective camera system (e.g. Dome).
PTZ protocols
One of the considerations in developing PTZ control is to ensure that new protocols can be added and that any
protocol changes can be installed easily without any accessory equipment or know-how. For this purpose all
drivers available at the time of delivery are provided along with your SmartTel. All it takes is installation with
SmartControl or SmartControl PRO software.Refer to the end of this chapter for an overview of all protocols
currently available.
Note: Refer to your SmartControl or SmartControl PRO software for information on installation and
configuration of drivers for your camera system.
Scope of functions
After loading the device-specific driver, the following list of PTZ functions will be available, depending on your
camera system. Please note that not all functions are supported by all camera systems. Refer to the appendix
for a device-specific function overview. If your camera system is not listed, please contact your technical
support centre.
6.1 PTZ Functions

SmartTel 33
Installation and Instruction Manual Vista
Interface RS-232
Camera system data lines (e.g. Dome) are connected with terminals TxD, RxD and GND (See "28 / 34 Pin
Terminal Block" on page 14). Please note that onlyone camera can be connected when using interface RS-
232, for technical reasons.
Interface RS-485
Camera system data lines (e.g. Dome) are connected with terminals D-, and D+. See "28 / 34 Pin Terminal
Block" on page 14. Up to four remotecontrollable cameras can be operated at the RS-485 interface with the
same data protocol with SmartTel 4 and up to ten with SmartTel 10.
Note: Refer to the enclosed installation CD for more device specific documentation on how to connect
and start the camera system.

Vista Installation and Instruction Manual
7 Web Server
SmartTel devices have an integrated Web Server for transmitting live images and, if necessary, controlling
PTZ functions. If you select this option (Recorder settings/Connections/ Network (TCP/IP)/Web Server) one
of these six standard connections is dropped in favour of up to four additional connections to PC, PDA ,
Smartphone browser or via the VideoWall software. The S_Remote App uses the Web Server for connection,
however, being a dedicated App it has a purpose designed layout suitable for the device it is downloaded onto.
The following describes a typical connection to a Smart via IE (Internet Explorer) or PDA.
General
When a user is working with the Web Server, then for security reasons a session is started and the Web
browser saves a cookie on the relevant user's computer. Within one session a user has up to ten minutes to
carry out an action (e.g., switch camera or quality/ change live image viewing mode). Every action carried out
within this period of time resets the session time so that the overall 10-minute period is renewed for each
action. When this period of time expires, the session ends. The user is logged off and the login page opens.
If transmitter configuration is changed using SmartControl or SmartControl PRO the Web Server is reset. If
there are any active Web browser connections at the time, then the following happens:
l No user defined in the transmitter: Reset to live image of Camera 1 in Mainscreen viewing mode
l At least one user defined in the transmitter: Reset to login page
Establishing a connection
To establish a connection to the server, enter the symbolic name (e.g. http://webserver1.heitel.com) or the IP
address (e.g. http://62.214.6.12) of the device in the address bar of the Web browser.
Login
The login page only opens if at least one user has been defined in the transmitter. If there is no user entry, the
Mainscreen viewing mode opens directly.
Otherwise, you will be asked to enter your Username and Password in order to access the device.
When entering your username, make sure to differentiate between lower- and uppercase letters because it is
case sensitive. Enter the relevant password and click Login.
SmartTel 37
Installation and Instruction Manual Vista
Mainscreen
Control elements
There are several control elements available. To the left of the current camera image there are the View and
PTZ areas and the Logout button. Underneath the live image are two drop-down menus: Camera and Quality.

l Handheld (for Smartphones and PDAs): This display mode dynamically attempts to optimize the size of
the camera image in line with the size of the display screen. However, this mechanism must be supported
by the handheld browser in use.
38 SmartTel
Vista Installation and Instruction Manual
In addition to the drop-down menus for selecting camera and image quality, this mode also has a dropdown
menu for selecting fixed positions (Preset 1 to Preset 9) – if a PTZ protocol is activated. Fixed positions can
only be controlled if a PTZ camera is selected and fixed positions are defined.
PTZ
These PTZ controls are only available in Mainscreen viewing mode if a PTZ protocol has been activated in the
transmitter settings and the current user is authorised accordingly. If the selected camera has the
corresponding PTZ functions, you can control them by clicking the relevant buttons:
l Arrow buttons: control pan/tilt functions.
l Magnifying glass + and Magnifying glass –: control the camera's zoom functions.
l F+ and F–: control the camera's focus functions.

Installation and Instruction Manual Vista
Camera
The Camera drop-down menu allows you to select the desired camera. The number of cameras available
depends on the device type:
l SmartTel 4: four cameras
l SmartTel 10: ten cameras
Quality
You can choose between three levels of image quality using the Quality drop-down menu. ++ corresponds to
the highest image quality. This mode also involves the largest amount of data transfer per image. The default
setting is +.
The Camera and Quality drop-down menus are only available in Mainscreen, Quadscreen and Handheld
viewing modes.
Logout
The Logout button is only available if at least one user has been defined in the transmitter. Clicking the Logout
button logs the current user off the transmitter. The Login screen then opens.
