yet used in the RS-485 chain.

Note: This works only for cameras connected to the specific Video Multiplexer.

3.Repeat step 2 until each camera has been assigned a unique number.

8-3. BAUD RATE

Move the cursor to BAUD RATE, and then select a rate by pressing the + or – button.

The initial factory setting is 9600.

9600, 4800, 2400: Consult the RS-485 system configuration for the baud rate.

8-4. DATA BIT

Setting is fixed for 8 bit. The cursor skips.

8-5. PARITY CHECK

Move the cursor to PARITY CHECK, and then select a para- meter by pressing the + or – button.

The initial factory setting is NONE.

NONE, EVEN, ODD: Consult the RS-485 system configura- tion for parity check.

8-6. STOP BIT

Move the cursor to STOP BIT, and then select either 1 or 2 by pressing the + or – button.

The initial factory setting is 1.

1, 2: Consult the RS-485 system configuration for the num- ber of stop bits in a message.

8-7. WAIT TIME

Move the cursor to WAIT TIME, and then select a parameter by pressing the + or – button.

The initial factory setting is OFF.

OFF, 100, 200, 400, 1000: Consult the RS-485 system con- figuration for waiting time in milli-second (ms).

8-8. ALARM DATA

Move the cursor to ALARM DATA, and then select 0S, 1S, 5S or OFF by pressing the + or – button.

The factory default setting is OFF.

0S, 1S, 5S: Enables alarm data transmission to the out- board devices. The received alarm will be activated at the selected time delay.

OFF: Disables alarm data transmission from the Video Multiplexer.

Notes:

•When no other devices are connected to the data port of the Video Multiplexer, set the ALARM DATA parame- ter to OFF.

•When other devices are connected to the data port of the Video Multiplexer, set the ALARM DATA parameter to 0S, 1S or 5S.
