Supported Pan Tilt Drivers
A comprehensive list of currently supported drivers with their associated settings is provided below:
Driver
Serial Settings
Driver Specific Settings
Diamond Smartscan
(SCAN III Family)
Baud = 9600
Parity = Even
Databits =8
Stopbits=1
Define the unit identity, corresponding to the DIP switch settings
for the connected device(1-255).
Canon VC C3
Accommodates single device
connection only - per RS232
port.
Baud = 9600
Parity = None
Databits =8
Stopbits=2
None.
Sony G20/G21/D30/D31
(VISCA)
Accommodates up to three
devices connected in
daisy-chain.
Baud = 9600
Parity = None
Databits =8
Stopbits=1
AXIS 2400 only: Define the unit identity, corresponding the
order in which the device is connected in the daisy chain. Note:
Sony devices normally support automatic sensing and
chronological assignment of device identities for daisy-chain
configurations.
Videmech
(Universal Outstation
Communication Protocol)
Up to four devices connect to
the RS485 connector in the
terminal block.
Baud = 9600
Parity = Odd
Databits =8
Stopbits=1
Define the following:
•
Serial Address: the address of the head connected to the
camera corresponding to the DIP switch settings for the con-
nected device(1-255). Note: the address 255 is reserved for
broadcast, i.e all connected heads will receive commands
sent to this address.
•
Movement limits: the limits representing the end positions in
all directions; i.e left, right, up and down. These limits ensure
that head travel is kept within certain bounds and must be
used if there is any risk of obstruction in the device head
movement.
•
Zoom and focus limits: indicating the end position for focus
and zoom. In order not to stall the motors when approaching
the mechanical end positions of your lens, it is very impor-
tant that you limit the wide/tele intervals in accordance with
the physical travel restrictions for the lens mechanism.
•
Zoom and focus enabled: uncheck these boxes if you not
using a zoom and/or focus lens.
•
Optical Data: the MaxDeg setting should correspond to the
optimal width of the viewing angle at max wide; the MinDeg
setting should correspond to the minimal viewing angle at
max tele.
Ernitec ERNA
Up to four devices connect to
the RS485 connector in the
terminal block.
Baud = 2400
Parity = None
Databits =8
Stopbits=1
Define the unit identity, corresponding to the DIP switch settings
for the connected device(1-255).
Pelco Digital Coaxitron
Up to four devices connect to
the RS485 connector in the
terminal block.
Baud = 2400
Parity = None
Databits =8
Stopbits=1
Define the unit identity, corresponding to the DIP switch settings
for the connected device(1-255).
