Serial Data Configuration

For the Serial Data connector on the T-POV 301, the Data 2 channel is configurable. To
select between RS4222 and RS485 serial communication, select the proper settings on a
dual dip-switch contained on the main circuit board inside the unit. The switch is directly
behind the right side of the serial connectors on both the base station and the camera unit.

To configure the Serial Data connector

1 Remove the top of the unit by removing the four screws as shown. A Mini-Mussel Shell

Camera Unit is shown as an example.

2 Flip the dual dip-switch contained on the main circuit board inside the RS422 or R485

unit. For a multi-unit Base Station, you must set each unit separately and units can be
set differently from each other.

• For RS422 serial communications, slide both switches to the back of the unit

(towards the serial connector).
