antdickens 0 Posted August 11, 2005 Has anybody ever managed to get a Vido dome to work with Geovision? The model is au g40 wb27 Any tips? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msecure 0 Posted August 18, 2005 The Vido supports multi-protocol for the PTZ functions. Just choose Pelco D on your Vido by setting the correct dip switch position & do the same for the Geovision. I presume you have an RS232-485 connected to your serial port & the cable is connected to the Vido as well? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
antdickens 0 Posted August 18, 2005 I am using a gv-net card. This has a lead which goes from com1 into the card using a rj11 type connector. Does this sound right? I have tried all the protocol settings to no avail Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msecure 0 Posted August 18, 2005 I use mine without the GV-Net but it's a similar item so no issue there! My advice is to trouble shoot the item 1 by 1. 1. Is your com port functioning? 2. Could the Vido be defective? Try using a different DVR to test it if possible. 3. Also, the Geovision is a bit sickenening when it comes to setting the PTZ. If I remember correctly there is 2 steps instead of 1 to do a simple thing! But I don't really remember because I help out a dealer of mine who bought a VIDO from me.
