The Dome/PTZ Device Direct Connect Configuration screen consists of five sections:
•The top section contains two checkboxes that control how connections are generally set up.

o The lower four port group’s settings are grayed out, and user input to these controls is disabled.
o All values in the lower four port group’s controls will be set to the default settings (See Table 1 on page 32 for the default settings values).

○If you click OK, the settings for all the controls will be returned to the default values, and the screen will display as described in the Neither checkbox checked state above.
○If you click Cancel, the checkbox you are attempting to uncheck will remain checked, and no changes to any of the port group’s setting values will occur.
•The bottom four sections (the Port Groups) control the settings for the four MPCPU ports— two SensorNet/Manchester ports and two
