Setting the End-of-Line Jumpers JP1, JP2 & JP3 for RS-485 Protocol
Operation
Figure 24
End-of-Line Jumper Location
This section defines setting
the end-of-line jumpers JP1,
JP2 and JP3. The jumper
sockets are located on the
underside of the customer
interface board, as shown in
Figure 24.
NOTE: DIP Switch 2 (SW2) switch 4 must be set to the ON (RS-485) position for proper daisy chain
operation. The end-of-line jumpers do not affect RS-422 mode.
NOTE: 32 units maximum can be daisy chained at a maximum distance of 5000 ft (1524 m) end-to-end.
The 3 jumpers are installed on each SurveyorVFT. There are 2 possible configurations as follows:
Jumpers Installed:
For one camera dome or the last in line of a daisy chain using RS-485 protocol only.
Jumpers Uninstalled:
For all intermediate camera domes in a daisy chain using RS-485 protocol only.
1. Uninstall the SurveyorVFT camera drive to access the jumper sockets. Refer to the “Uninstalling the
SurveyorVFT” section of this manual.
2. Verify that all 3 jumpers are installed over the 2 pins for each socket on a SurveyorVFT that is the only
unit in a daisy chain or the last in line of a daisy chain.
3. Reassemble the SurveyorVFT and proceed to the Operation section of this manual for functional testing.
Refer to the Installation section of this manual.
Configuring the ViconNet (IP/LAN) Version
The following information is provided when installing the ViconNet version of the SurveyorVFT (IP dome)
only. The SurveyorVFT camera dome (IP version) is shipped with a CD that contains the ViconNet version 5
software needed to setup your IP system, including the application setup, the camera firmware and setup
software (VNSetup). Be sure the ViconNet Workstation meets the minimum requirements, is running the
ViconNet application (version 5) (VNSetup) and has the proper PTZ camera driver. The VNSetup is found on
the included CD under software, IP Camera Setup. Refer to appropriate ViconNet documentation.
Network Considerations
The SurveyorVFT Camera Dome can be connected to any ViconNet network (Version 5 software). Kollector
Elite Recorders and ViconNet Workstations can be used for live viewing and recording of network-streamed
video. A network can be as simple as a single SurveyorVFT connected to a ViconNet Workstation or can be
complex with the addition of several networks interconnected via WAN.
