ATTENTION
Motion detection is provided as a reference because it is environment-dependent. When the
settings are configured to be very sensitive to motion, some triggered events might be false
alarms, since in fact there is only a tiny difference between sequential images. False alarms can
be triggered by the flashing of florescent lights, shifting of shadows, etc.

COM port
Interface mode
The COM port supports 2 serial interfaces, although only one interface can be used at a time.
Depending on the interface used by the attached device, administrators must set the
Interface
mode
to either RS-232 or RS-485.
ATTENTION
RS-232 interface is used via the DB9 COM port, and RS-485 interface is used via the GPIO.
These 2 interfaces cannot be used at the same time.
Purpose
The COM port connection has 3 purposes:
1.
If the attached device is a PTZ camera, administrators must select the correct PTZ model
under PTZ driver options, since each PTZ camera has its own protocols for the PTZ functions.
Refer to Appendix B,
Settings for Supported PTZ Cameras
, to find out the PTZ cameras
that MOXA VPort 2110 Video Server supports. If the attached PTZ camera is not supported
by the VPort, administrators can select Custom Camera to enter the proprietary commands for
pan, tilt, zoom, and focus control.
