5 Current Protocol Support
A Vi-K2/Vi-K3 is capable of controlling a mixture of two different types of dome. All domes of one type must
be connected to the “
DOMES-1” output, and all domes of the other type must be connected to the
“
DOMES-2” output. These outputs must each be allocated one of the following protocol numbers (See
sections 2.2.3 and 2.2.4):
Note that some domes support protocols from other manufacturers, or may be controlled via a protocol
converter. It is important to select the correct protocol from the list below, not necessarily the manufacturer
of the dome.

1
Slave
RS485
9600
Select this protocol in all slave Vi-K2/Vi-K3’s and if
domes are connected to dome-enabled DVRs.
2
JVC
RS485
9600
Direct connection via twisted pair.
3
Molynx
RS485
9600
Connect directly to Molynx receivers via twisted pair.
4
Dennard
RS485
9600
Direct connection via twisted pair.
5
VCL
RS485
9600
Direct connection via twisted pair.
6
Sanyo
RS485
9600
Direct connection via twisted pair.
7
BBV
RS232
9600
Connect to a BBV transmitter such as the TX1000/8,
which provides control of BBV compatible domes &
receivers via coax.
8
BBV
20mA
1200
Connection to BBV compatible receivers via twisted
pair. The RX100 receivers provide coax or RS485
control of a range of dome domes as supported by
BBV.
9
Forward Vision
(VCL)
RS485
9600
Direct connection via twisted pair. Note that the
dome must be purchased with the VCL-based
protocol option.
10
Mercer
RS485
9600
Direct connection via twisted pair.
11
Merit Lilin (MLP1)
RS485
9600
Direct connection via twisted pair.
12
Borsatec
RS485
9600
Direct connection via twisted pair.
13
Samsung
RS485
9600
Direct connection via twisted pair.
14
Pelco-D (2400)
RS485
2400
Direct connection via twisted pair at standard Pelco
baud rate. Many domes use this protocol.
