Hi Guys, First time poster - I've got a Pelco D protocol dome camera which runs off RS485 joypad at present. However I'm now purchasing a new Prokam 8 Chn DVR recorder which has RS485 built in to allow remote control of the camera via the web interface (groovy!)... However I wouldn't really want to lose my joypad either. Is the a way to have my cake and eat it too by connecting the joypad and the DVR onto the same control cable and retain the ability to control the camera using either device? I thought it would be just a case of joining the A cables together and then then the B cables too, however knowing things like I do, not all can be that simple?! Thanks in advance! Pete

Hi George, Thanks for your reply. Got it working!! Had to play around with the bands to get them to match the camera and DVR however now working a treat. Thanks again, Pete
