Connecting a Controllable Camera
3. Connect the video cable via the adapter supplied (Cinch on BNC) to the first
camera input on the rear of the Convision V6xx A.
4. Additionally, you have to connect the control cable (9pin Sub-D to 8pin mini DIN)
to one of the serial inputs (COM 1 or COM 2) of the Convision V6xx A.
5. The camera is supplied with power via the power pack supplied.
Define the serial input used on the Configuration / System / Device page (refer to
Chapter 9.1.11).
If you want to connect several controllable cameras to a Convision V6xx A, all the
cameras following the first one are controlled via series cable connectors of the
individual cameras (8pin mini DIN connectors). The cameras are then individually
controlled via internal port addresses.
In some controllable cameras you have to set an internal control address. For
this purpose, please use the addresses starting with "1".
For controlling a camera not supported by the Convision V6xx A you have to enable
the "Serial-URL-Port" option on the Configuration/System/Device page. For more
information on this topic, please read Chapter 9.1.11 – Serial-URL-Port. The unit is
controlled via a separate applet that can be uploaded to the Convision V6xx A (refer
to Chapter 8.6 and 9.1.4).
