er3131 0 Posted March 10, 2005 I am trying to hook up a PTZ camera to a RS485 connector that hooks into the DVR but I am not sure of somthing. The PTZ has its four wires (red and black for positive and ground) and (yellow and orange T+ and T-) However, I dont know if I am supposed to plug all four into the adaptor or just the T+ and T- and take the positive and the ground to the plug (which was supplied).

VST_Man 1 Posted March 12, 2005 red/black are power. usually 24vac. T+T- are transmit wires. camera is the receiver and the rs transmits the PTZ control signals. termination also needs to be correct. i'd wire it all up in one room (test) and after you get it working you can move it to the site camera location. what type of RS is it? my first PTZ was a learning experience for em also. CMD64 (camera admin settigs) was another issue to overcome since you need a keyboard with a stand alone and do not need one with a PC Based. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
