Video server, the contemporary device for transmitting video throughout LAN and
WAN, can also be the controlling tool for this speed dome camera.
Most video servers in market are built with RS-485 communication port, and single
video input for connecting one camera. To work with this PTZ camera, installer
must connect both signals (video and RS-485) from the server to the camera, as
the picture shown on below.
First of all, the camera ID should be kept on number “0” (zero) or 1 (one) when it
is linked to a video server, unless your video server requires different ID. Be sure
the RS-485 polarity is correctly handled. Once the connectivity is completed, start
the video server control panel on computer and follow the instructions on below
during the video server setup
„ Choose Pelco D as the control protocol
„ choose RS-485 as the communication format
„ baud rate matches the setting in camera; “ 2400 ”
is recommended
„ parity is set to “ 0 ” (zero) or “ None ”
„ Data bit is “ 8 ” (eight)
„ Stop bit is “ 1 ” (one)
You may conduct control to the speed dome after these are correctly set up. For
advanced functions, you must follow the instructions given by the video server
manual.
