Canderson 0 Posted April 29, 2009 Hello All, I was curious of the boards opinion on IP control of standard Pan Tilt positioners, such as the ever popular Pelco line. I have looked and noticed that many of the positioners are used with standard controllers, or MPTAZ protocols, but what I need is further information on a positioner that we can definately run through an IP interface. Typically this would be acheived with a video server or encoder, and I have used the Esprit line before run through the Axis 241 encoder using the Pelco D protocol. I was unsure however of which Pelco or other company components may be best used in my environment. I have 120VAC or 12/24VDC to work with and need something fairly compact for a megapixel IP camera. I would like to use the tiny, new Axis encoder just released and if possible I would need to control an motorized zoom lens with the device (if possible) as well. Thanks!

zmxtech 0 Posted April 30, 2009 most encoder-decoders units have a serial/485 port for this. the protocol usually does not mater. [it will pass anything you throw at it] note the Axis M7001 only does D1 [the 485 ports are on the side] http://www.axis.com/products/cam_m7001/index.htm spec's are in the install manual no good if you want megapixel z Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
