EZWatch EZ-TRACK-DOME - Manual (Page 18)

Camera Wiring FAQ :
Q. If I am using an EZ Watch Pro or Armor Pro DVR Kit, why do I need a joystick?
A: The EZ Watch Pro and Armor Pro DVR units have full P/T/Z functionality but limited
preset functionality. They can call any preset at all, however setting presets and using Iris
Open/Close functions require a joystick to use. This means that without the joystick, you
cannot enter the menu or perform functions within the menu.
By connecting wires to both the Joystick and the DVR controller, you gain the most
amount of control possibly, by allowing yourself to use the joystick for configuration and
local control, but still allowing remote control using the DVR system (From the DVR or
over the internet).
Q. Can I use the EZ Track dome with another brand of DVR?
A: So long as the DVR supports the PELCO-P communication protocol and the 9600
baud rate, it should function. To be able to fully control the camera it also needs to have
the ability to both set and recall presets above 64 (Many DVR units call 1-32 or 1-64), as
well as have full iris control for menu configuration.
