Appendix: RS-485 Address
The analogue camera inside EX-BC36 and SA-BC36 camera stations (fixed and PTZ
models) can be controlled from a PC with an RS-485 converter using a suitable program
(Hyper Terminal or Visual studio for example).
Set the unit address
The 9-way dip-switch on the camera board (see "Camera
board layout", item 6) can be used to set up the unit
address from 1 to 255 (binary). When a switch is on the
ON position, the relative digit has value 1, otherwise the
value is 0.
Switch 1 is referred to the least significant digit (20), while
switch 8 is referred to the most significant digit (27).
For example, the address 13 (00001101 in binary) can be
set up turning ON the switch 1, 3 and 4.
Restart the unit to complete the address change operation. Pin 9 activates the RS-485 end
of line when turned ON.
The default address is 1.
Presets
Presets 1 to 128 can be used to set/call a specific status of the camera (zoom position,
manual or automatic focus, focus position, automatic or manual iris, iris position).
Focus and iris default setting is auto.
The HOME function is assigned to preset 1. This means that on start up and after each
reboot the unit adopts the preset 1 status (zoom position, manual or automatic focus, focus
position, automatic or manual iris, iris position). The preset 1 status can be set by the user.
IMPORTANT:
Important: For RS-485 communication, the camera and the telemetry board must
have the same address.
•
The setup of the camera address is located at the back side of the camera
inside the camera tube (Zoom function).
•
The setup of the unit address is located on the telemetry board on top of
the PTZ unit. (Pan and Tilt function).
