The camera can be controlled via RS-485, Half-duplex mode. The parameters are:
• Baud rate: 2400/4800/9600
• Start bit: 1 bit
• Data bit: 8 bits.
• Stop bit: 1 bit.
• Parity bit: none.
IP (Network) Connection
Execute the following steps to connect the controller and an Avonic PoE camera to a LAN:
Connect the controller and the camera to a (PoE) switch. Use for this an Ethernet connection. See
. See also the diagram below:

way to a camera number of the controller. The following settings need to match in both camera and
controller:
1.
Protocol (VISCA, PELCO-p or PELCO-d)
2.
Camera address number (1, 2 or n)
3.
Communication settings as baud rate (9600), parity, etc.
