Thanks to you all for advice and very constructive it all was , very good site with genuine helpful people. I now have it sorted appears the dvr manufacturer, probably Chinese, labelled the ptz outputs on the back of dvr wrongly. Thanks to you all again Hagar

Hi, I am a new member and was hoping someone can help. I have just purchased a prokam 8ch dvr and have cameras set up but cant get the ptz to work. On my old ptz controller I had to set the protocol, pelco D, the baud rate 9600 and the com port which was 3. On prokam it asks for Data bit, stop bit, verify and address. can anyone tell me how to get the ptz working? If I connect RS twisted pair cables back to old controller with Pelco D baud rate 9600 and com 3 it works . The camera I am using is a Samsung 2700 Any help would be appreciated Many thanks Mike

I have to use my laptop to run ptz controller, used to have dvr capture card in pc but thought I would go this way to make it much easier, not so and prokam are no help at all they blame Samsung and Samsung have given me all settings which they say should work , but it doesn't, thanks for help though

Thanks very much for your help

Thanks very much for your reply but have tried exactly what you say , tried changing wires round and address as default for Samsung(95) I have also tried 3 and all settings as you said but thanks for your help. Do you know if there is any other software available which is similar to what old controller used. Prokam cant or don't seem to be able to help Many thanks
