jbruckner 0 Posted March 16, 2013 Hi there, Does anyone have experience how to use an analog PTZ (pelco d protocol, rs485, cat5 for ptz control + rg59 for video) camera with HD-SDI DVR? We are going to upgrade an analog system to HD-SDI. But we have an expensive PTZ camera in the current installation and we want to keep that one. The DVR does not have any analog input for connecting analog video and beside that we should control the analog ptz from the same platform. Any idea?

thewireguys 3 Posted March 16, 2013 I would return your current hd-sdi DVR for a hybrid unit that can do analog and hd-sdi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jbruckner 0 Posted April 2, 2013 I would return your current hd-sdi DVR for a hybrid unit that can do analog and hd-sdi It could be a solution, but our supplier can not provide 16channel hybrid model. We have only one analog ptz and all the remaining 25-30 cameras will be HD-sdi. Some kind of converter does not really exist? btw, thanks for your help Janos Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jbruckner 0 Posted April 2, 2013 better yet, upgrade to an ip system and plug the ptz into an encoder. In our case IP is not a possibility. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
