Thanks, Phil Its seems like you are thinking of adding 2 IP ptz cameras using the ethernet port? that wont work. Your dvr is analog. You need an analog ptz or better yet upgrade your dvr to a hybrid.

ssnapier 0 Posted January 2, 2016 If you are referring to the RS-485 port the answer is yes. Each camera gets addressed at the camera and you just put the wires for both in your RS-485 port. Make sure you match your settings int he DVR and on the camera. If your data speeds are not the same it will either act crazy or not work at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
