Hi i am looking to buy a ptz joystick controler for some checkpoint ptz cameras. I need a joyshick to control 5 ptz through either RS-232 or RS-485. i would like to run them through the joystick and not daisy chain them if need be, but i will if i need to. also i would like to keep the ptz controler under 250 dollars. Any help will be plus on this project i have. thanks for any and all help

thanks for the Help on the lenses.

Question i am new some of the cctv systems and stuff. I would like it know in the 1/3" 2.8mm~8mm Varifocal Auto Iris lense if you still have to manually ajust the lense or can it be ajusted by the cumputer system. I got a geovision system and a generic dvr system (pc versions on both). Or if their is some info about these lenses? Thanks For Any and All help.

thanks for the info again, but i have already contacted Checkpiont Systems for the info or manual. the Tech said he could help but was not alowed to because i am a thrid party vendor in this. He then sent me to a lady who told me that she would contact someone who could help and call me back, that was a week and half ago. I called them again and get the phone swap tell a dead end again. I am going to try again to get someware with them. I was just seeing if anyone knew about These PTZ. Thanks for any and all help

Hi, I am looking for the wiring dirgram for a Pendant Dome PTZ camera by checkpiont? Part # is 701438 & serial is D502399-960920. Also i need to know what Protcall it runs on. I bought 4 of these PTZ from an auction of a grocery store that closed. As a side note i am also looking for a PTZ controler card for a Geovision system and one for a pc dvr camera setup. I think i found one of the card but am not sure as i have never delt with PTZ systems. Here is the card i found sofar GV-NET Card - Geovision PTZ Control Card RS-232 converter or Geovision GV-NET IO Card, PTZ Controller, RS-485. Please Let me know if this will work with the PTZ i got or What? Also please let me know what PTZ joystick controler with work with these systems too.

thanks for the info on the lenses. Next Question, What are the settings for the auto lenses on the side of the camera. Theri are 3 video, dc, AES on the side were the camera auto lense plugs in, then their are on the other side DC iris level, with switch for manual and pre. then another switch with int and L.L. what do these switch do with the auto lense. Again Thanks for any and all help.

their is a Serial conector on the end of the ptz camera, but it has a conector on it that splilts the plug into a coaxal line then 4 other lines Red, Black, Green, White. I think the Red and Black are 12v power and the others are the Data lines. This is the same for all 4 PTZ's, in need to fine a wiring diagram to wire it the the serial conector or to a card, but i need to connect all 4 ptz. I am just not sure if i can daisy chain the Ptzs, if so how? to the serial port.
