SECTION 2
Installation
Before you start, check the package contents and make sure that the device in the package is in good condition and all the assembly
parts are included. Included are:
•
AC power supply
•
Installation guide (this user manual)
Mounting brackets are sold separately.
2.1 Set the DIP switches
DIP switches, located in the housing are used to setup the RS-485 network address (switches 1 - 5), baud rate (switches 6 - 7), and
protocol (switches 8 - 9). These switches can also be setup manually or through the DVR PTZ interface.
The default DIP switch settings configure the camera for:
—
RS-485 address: 0
—
Baud Rate: 2400
—
RS-485 termination resistor: Off
Using the tables below, set the switches in accordance with the following:
•
The address of each device (camera) on the RS-485 network must be different.
•
The baud rate must be the same for each device on the RS-485 network.
•
The DIP switches 1 - 9, used for setting the address, baud rate, and protocol of the RS-485 network, function logically in this
way: ON=1 and OFF=0.
•
The camera is self-adaptive to the Pelco-P, Pelco-D and Private-Code protocols. You don’t have to set the DIP switches for these
RS-485 control protocol.
•
DIP switch 10 provides RS-485 end-of-line termination and cannot be set using the DVR interface. If used, it must be set by
opening the camera enclosure and manually setting the switch to ON.
To set the DIP switches manually, do the following:
1.
Remove the back cover from the camera by removing the two screws from the cover plate.
