I am currently running 6 AD/Sensormatic SpeedDome Ultra 7 cameras over SensorNet protocol, controlling them with a TouchTracker and an EIM box (no matrix is being used - cameras are connected directly to the monitors). I am looking in to purchasing an RS-485 compatible video matrix system and want to add some additional non-AD PTZ cameras to the system. Was wondering if my existing SpeedDome cameras are compatible with standard RS-485 or if I would have to replace them with standard RS-485 PTZs? I've heard that Sensornet is just a modified version of RS485, but wasn't sure.
Also, forgot to add, I was not planning on keeping the TouchTracker and EIM box... Was going to be using the controller that comes with the matrix (Costar Video CX3208 matrix with the CX4000 controller)
