Before installing the camera, set up the DIP
switch to congure the Camera ID,
communication protocol, located on the mount.
- When the setting is ‘Auto’ protocol, camera will
automatically recognize SAMSUNG-E or PELCO-D / P
protocol.
Any other DIP switch combinations will be recognized
as Auto protocol.
- If you want to control the camera using a DVR or a
keyboard controller, the protocol must be identical to the
protocol set on the camera
- If you change the camera protocol by changing the DIP
the camera.
3. RS-485 Termination Resistor
- Pin 8 is used for on/o of RS-485 termination.
- Normally, it must be OFF.
- When you have trouble with long daisy chain style
connections, turn ON this termination switch on the last
camera.
- If you want to control a certain camera, you must match the
camera ID with ‘CAM ID’ setting of DVR or keyboard controller.
- The range of Camera ID is 0~255.
- All cameras have a factory default Camera ID of 1.
- Camera ID will be eective without having to reboot the
camera.
4. Camera ID Setup
The ID number of the camera is set using binary numbers.

channels do not need to be taken into consideration.
Make sure the power capacity of the relay contact
matches the instructions written above.
The short circuit
between the GND
and Input pin
means alarm is
activated.
Alarm Input
To use the alarm input, the type of sensor must be
selected in OSD menu. Select from 'Normal Open' and
'Normal Close'. If sensor type is not selected properly,
the alarm can be activated reversely.
Video Output

BNC coaxial cable.
Power Connection
- Please check the correct rated power.
- The rated power is marked on the front of the inner box
and the side of the PTZ mechanism.
RS-485 Communication (Keyboard Controller/DVR)
To control multiple PTZ cameras at the same time, the
