One can create up to 16 Sensor objects under the Video Capture Device object when 16/4 Sensor-Relay card is installed.

All the Sensor objects corresponding to sensors connected to one 16/4 Sensor-Relay are to be created in the Hardware object tree under the Video Capture Device object corresponding to the video capture card where the Sensor-Relay card is installed.

At least one Camera object is to be created under the same Video Capture device object for sensor to work.

If the Sensor-Relay card is installed on FS-5, FS-6 or FS-16 video capture card, then the Sensor objects are to be created under any Video Capture Device object within the hardware card.

If the Sensor-Relay card is installed on FS-8 video capture card, then the Sensor objects are to be created under the Video Capture Device object with 07 value of the PCI-channel.

Sensor objects can be relocated in the object tree. To change the parent Video Capture Device object of the Sensor objects, change the value of the Video Capture Device object on the settings panel of the Sensor object. The value of this parameter is to correspond to the number of the Video Capture Device object (in the object tree) under which the Sensor object is to be located. If the value of the Video Capture Device parameter is changed on the settings panel of the Sensor object, then the object is relocated to the branch of child objects of the corresponding Video Capture Device object.

The figure below shows an example of locating the Sensor objects in the object tree when two FS-6 (FS-16) video capture cards with 16 sensors connected to the first 16/4 Sensor-Relay card and 2 sensors connected to the second one are used. 

When configuring the Sensor objects one is to specify the channel numbers of sensor connection to the Sensor-Relay card according to the numbers of the input connectors.

To change the channel numeration, use the Channel Number list on the settings panel of the Sensor object.

The 16/4 Sensor-Relay cards allow connecting up to 4 sensor channels according to the license key file.

The figure below shows an example of the channel numeration configuration on the 16/4 Sensor-Relay card installed on FS-6 (or FS-16) video capture card (4 ADCs for 4 Video Capture Device objects):

Channels of the second 16/4 Sensor-Relay card are numbered 1-16 according to input connectors.

Example of the channel numeration configuration of sensors connected on the second (next) 16/4 Sensor-Relay card installed on FS-6 (or FS-16) video capture card (4 ADCs for 4 Video Capture Device objects):
