2.1 Setup the camera address and baud rate DIP switches
DIP switches inside the camera are used to manually configure the RS-485 device address and network baud rate. The device
address and baud rate can also be configured remotely through the OSD (on-screen display) using a control console, DVR or DVS.
See “SECTION 4 Configuring the PTZ Camera” on page 19 for more information.
NOTE
If you are installing several RS-485 network devices at the same time, manually setting the DIP switches for address and
baud rate will help reduce connectivity issues during the initial setup of those devices.
There are two DIP switch groups, SW1 switches 1 .. 8 (sets the RS-485 network address) and SW2 switches 1 and 2 (sets the
RS-485 network baud rate). The address setup for the camera must be unique for each device on the RS-485 network. However,
the baud rate switched must be configured to the same baud rate used by the other devices on the network. These switches are
accessible when the “SWITCH” cover is removed. To setup the DIP switches, do the following:
1.
While viewing the camera from the underside, remove the plate marked “SWITCH”.
SW1: 1 .. 8
SW2: 1 .. 8
