9.2 Configure PTZ Settings
Settings for a PTZ camera must be configured before it is used. Before proceeding,
verify that the PTZ and RS-485 settings in the DVR are identical and connected
properly. The T+ is the RS485 positive (usually connected to the orange RS485 data
cable on the PTZ camera) and T- is the RS485 negative (usually connected to the
yellow RS485 data cable on the PTZ camera).
