narinesa 0 Posted September 8, 2014 I currently have a XTS 8100s DVR and a PTZ camera working with a US-K802 speed dome controller. I just try to replace this camera with a Dahua SD-65230-HNI I am getting picture but not rs485 function I set the controller at Phelco-P, 9600, parity = none with id=001 Dahua PTZ shows id as 1-s Don't know if this is the correct setting for Dahua or why the rs485 is not working. I did reverse the rs485 cable without any success. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

narinesa 0 Posted September 22, 2014 UPDATE Here is what I found out: Analog cctv and digital cctv do not mix. Digital PTZ controller cannot directly control any PTZ camera. Analog PTZ controller can directly control an analog PTZ camera. Digital PTZ are controlled via software or network digital PTZ controller. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Securame 0 Posted September 23, 2014 http://www.dahuasecurity.com/products/sd65220230s220-hni-472.html That camera does work with Pelco-P/D. I think that it should be working with an "analog" keyboard, and I think that most decent PTZ IP cameras must have input for RS485 wiring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
narinesa 0 Posted September 23, 2014 Yes, that is the PTZ in your link. According to Dahua, rs485 are not unified with IP digital cameras - only with analog. A PTZ controller cannot control a digital IP camera. Digital or network PTZ controller are very expensive and only a few are available. The rs485 connection on the ip camera is for NVR and software control - also for digital network PTZ controller. At the moment, I got it to work with NVR and software but not with any analog equipment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
narinesa 0 Posted May 26, 2015 Update on digital IP controller. Just plug into the CAT5 network and it controls all the cameras. Don't know why it has a RS485 port but I not using it for anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
