2.3 DOME CAMERA ADDRESS (ID)
All devices connected in the chain must possess a unique address. If any of the
devices possess the same address, then an electrical short may occur, thus damaging
the control circuit and attached devices. Please be especially careful when installing
multiple Speed Domes with a DVR, as it is critical that the address match the channel
number of the DVR.
For example, for DVR’s channel 1 (BNC connector 1), the Speed Dome’s ID must also
be 1, for DVR’s channel 2, the Speed Dome’s ID must be 2, and so on.
If more than 16 dome cameras are installed using two or more DVRs, the following
formula is useful to determine the Dome ID: ID =16x(n-1)+m ( where n= number of
DVR, m=Camera Port)
Please refer to the following diagram to select Speed Dome address (ID).
2.4 SELECTING THE PROTOCOL
The Xpress Dome can automatically negotiate with multiple protocols if the
communication speed is matched to the controlling device. Any protocol that has
already been added onto the Xpress Dome will be automatically detected and matched
with the controlling device.
Please refer to the following chart for a full list of compatible protocols.
