3.2.3.2 RS-485 installation with EverFocus DVR

It is possible to control the EPTZ 100 speed dome by EverFocus DVR (except 1 Ch. models) via network. A combined local control by EKB 500 keyboard and remote (network) control by DVR is also possible.

For a combined local and remote PTZ control, it is mandatory that DVR and speed dome are connected to the same RS-485 port of the EKB 500 keyboard. The RS-485 signal is looped through the DVR.

The drawing below shows an incorrect RS-485 connection for controlling the DVR locally and remotely. With this way of installation, only local PTZ control is possible.
