liveinxs 0 Posted December 29, 2011 i just received my PTZ camera today, and i see it works with many different protocols, i was curious, is one protocol better then another, and also i notice that there are different Baud rates, within each protocol, is the higher rate better, then the lower rate....

nDAlk90 0 Posted December 30, 2011 I think Pelco-D is one of the most popular protocols. Don't know why this is and not sure if one baud rate and protocol is better then another. Can anyone explain to us Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SEANHAWG 1 Posted December 30, 2011 You should not notice any difference between protocols and baud rates. Simply use Pelco D with any baud rate and match it up on your DVR and your good to go. Also, be sure to match up the Cam ID's as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SEANHAWG 1 Posted December 30, 2011 Its usually by calling up a certain preset number which is defined by the maker of your camera. There is no menu button on PTZ controls. You may check in the GVI manual to see which preset needs to be called up to bring up the OSD menu. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
