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.
