Connections
BirdDog products default to DHCP, so for the purposes of this quick start guide, we’ll assume:
a.
You are also using a managed DHCP IP configuration on your network.
b.
You have connected NDI® cameras, such as the BirdDog P200.
Power
You’ll have to decide how you are going to power your PTZ Keyboard. You have two choices. You
can use PoE (power over Ethernet) or, if your network doesn’t support PoE, you can use the included
12VDC power adaptor. If available, PoE is the easier choice, since you can use the same Ethernet cable
to power and control the camera, as well as send video.
Network
Plug an Ethernet cable from the switch to your PTZ Keyboard. Ensure that the cable is plugged into
the NDI®/PoE capable port on PTZ Keyboard, as shown below.
Camera Search
Two control knobs on PTZ Keyboard are used to navigate the menus. Please refer to
for more information.
