Using the PTZ730 keypad with the excelPTZ series
When you first take the keyboard out of the box you will need to set it up for the domes that you are
using.
The dome you have purchased has the default settings of PELCO- D 2400-BAUD rate Address 1
First read through the keypad instruction manual supplied. Set the protocol and baud rate in the keypad
using the dipswitches on the rear of the unit. Note that all PTZ domes controlled by this keypad must
have identical protocol and baud rate settings. The manual supplied with the keypad will show you
what these settings should be.
Next connect the RS485 connections from the dome/s ensuring that the A and B lines are connected
correctly.
Finally connect the power supply. Both the PTZ730 and PTZ700 keypads require a 12V DC PSU (1A
minimum).
It is recommended to use a POW802 or equivalent for this purpose. Now press the keypad ON button.
Select a PTZ camera by pressing CAM button followed by camera address and Enter*. The LCD
display will indicate the camera channel selected. CAM 01 indicates that the keyboard is ready to talk
to camera with address 1, if you have another dome set at camera address 2, press CAM button
followed by 02 and Enter. This would change the display screen to CAM 02.
If you have multiple domes you will need to change the address of each dome so they are different but
PLEASE LEAVE THE DOMES ON PELCO-D 2400 BAUD RATE.
* see NOTE 2 above.
