Wiring diagram

Connection in network mode

• The keyboard is on the same LAN as the camera: The keyboard connects to the switch through the network cable, and the camera connects to the switch through the network cable. In the same LAN, set the same network segment, and set the corresponding protocol, IP address and port number, you can control the camera through the keyboard.
• The keyboard is directly connected to the camera: The keyboard is connected to the camera through the network cable, set the same network segment, and set the corresponding protocol, IP address and port number, you can control the camera through the keyboard.

Connection in RS232 mode
The keyboard connects to the camera via RS232 cable, set the corresponding protocol, address and baud rate, and you can control the camera via the keyboard.

• Line Sequence ： Using the RS232 connection, pin 1 RXD of the keypad is connected to the camera input interface TXD, pin 2 TXD of the keypad is connected to the camera RXD and pin 3 of the keypad is connected to the camera GND. (It is also possible to use the standard RS232 interface of the control keypad to connect to the camera.

connection

Connection in RS422 mode
The keyboard connects to the camera via RS422 cable, set the corresponding protocol, address and baud rate, and you can control the camera via the keyboard.

• Line Sequence Using the RS422 bus connection, the keyboard pin 1 TXD + connects to the camera’s RXD-, the keyboard pin 2 TXD – connects to the camera’s RXD +, the keyboard pin 3 RXD + connects to the camera’s TXD -, the keyboard pin 4 RXD – connects to the camera’s TXD+. ****

Note: Some cameras do not support RS422 control.

Connection in RS485 mode
The keyboard connects to the camera via RS485 cable, set the corresponding protocol, address and baud rate, and you can control the camera via the keyboard.

Wiring diagram

• Line Sequence ：Using the RS485 bus connection, the keyboard pin 1 TXD + connected to the camera RXD-, the keyboard pin 2 TXD- connected to the camera RXD +.

Cascade in RS232, RS422, RS485 mode
The keyboard connects the RS232-IN port of camera No. 1 through RS232, RS422, RS485 lines, and then connects the RS232-IN port of camera No. 2 through the RS232-OUT port of camera No. 1 with a cascade line, and finally sets the corresponding protocol, address and baud rate on the keyboard to control camera No. 1 or camera No. 2 through the keyboard.

• Line Sequence ：Using RS232 cascade connection, the output of the keyboard is connected to the input of camera No. 1, the output of camera No. 1 is connected to the input of camera No. 2, and so on.

The connection method using RS422 and RS485 cascade is roughly the same as that of RS232.
