Precautions

What is the function of CAM NUM when add a network device?
CAM NUM will be associated and bound with the currently entered IP and port information. It will quickly switch to the CAM NUM bound device when adding a device with CAM button.
How to enter English when set the user name, password and custom keys of F1/ F2.
For example: to enter letter C, simply press the number key “2” three times continuously in the input interface.
How to enter IP address?
The camera controller doesn’t have “.” button; So please enter the IP address with four segments.
Take IP address 192.168.0.1 for example, it will automatically jump to next segment when
finished input 192 and 168; while after input 0, you have to move the joystick rightward to switch
to next segment input.
How to clear in input mode?
Move the joystick leftward to clear the input information.
The home page of each mode refers to the displayed page when controller initialization complete.
In IP VISCA and ONVIF Mode, if you see the prompts of “Visca!” and “Onvif!” , the IP address displayed on the screen is local IP address of the controller. While the prompts of “Visca:” and “Onvif:” shown on the page, the IP address displayed on the screen belongs to the connected device.

Product Overview

Product Features

Four control modes: Two IP control modes (IP VISCA & ONVIF); Two analog control modes (RS422 & RS232)
Three Control Protocols: VISCA, ONVIF and PELCO

Wiring Diagram

The controller and PTZ camera must be connected to the same LAN, and IP addresses must at the same segment.
For example:

192.168.1.123 is at the same segment with 192.168.1.111
192.168.1.123 is not at the same segment with 192.168.0.125
The default setting for IP controller is obtaining IP address dynamically.
