CONNECTING A PTZ CAMERA

Setting up a PTZ Camera is simple. The DVR unit comes preassembled with an internal PTZ adapter. The cabling may be run up to 4,000 ft using 22 Gauge Twisted Pair.

It is important to understand how the PTZ connects to the DVR. The DVR outputs an RS-232 signal and converts in to an RS-422/485 signal which is then sent to the PTZ camera.

Attaching the RS-422 Adapter (x120 and x60 models)

1.Locate the PTZ adapter cable

2.Connect the wires of the PTZ adapter to the PTZ camera. The red wire should connect to the RX+ on the camera and the brown wire should connect to the RX-.

NOTE: The PTZ adapter has four wires but only two are necessary for this application; the yellow and orange wires are not used currently.

3.Connect the other end of the adapter to the XVR unit as shown.

4.Assign the PTZ camera an ID number that coincides with the number assigned to it by the XVR unit

Example: If the camera is plugged into input number 5, set the PTZ unit to ID number 5.

Attaching the RS-485 Adapter (x120R, x240 and x480 models)

1.Locate the PTZ adapter cable.

2.Connect the two wires of the PTZ adapter to the PTZ camera. The red wire on the adapter should connect to the RX+ on the PTZ and the brown wire should connect to the RX-.

3.Connect the other end of the adapter to the DVR unit as shown

4.Assign the PTZ camera an ID number that coincides with the number assigned to it by the DVR unit.

Example: If the camera is plugged into input number 5, set the PTZ unit to ID number 5.
