Getting Started
Install and wire the camera according to the instructions in this manual and in the manuals
that accompany the power supply and mounting devices. A typical system includes a
keyboard, matrix switcher, monitor, and appropriate wiring connections. Refer to the
individual product manuals for complete installation and setup instructions for each of the
system components.
Establishing Control of the Camera
The MIC Series 612 supports two communication protocols (Biphase and RS-485), and both
Bosch and Pelco D and P (keyboard) controller protocols that allow you to send commands to
the camera and to receive information from the camera.
Establishing Control of the Camera via Biphase Protocol
Notice!
Biphase protocol works only with Bosch controller protocol. It does not work with Pelco
controller protocol.
Biphase is the standard Bosch protocol used to send Pan/Tilt/Zoom control data. Biphase
connections require a MIC-BP3 or a MIC-BP4 Biphase converter (sold separately).

Establishing Control of the Camera via RS-485 Protocol
Users can connect via
a) A computer -> RS-232 -> RS-232 to RS-485 converter -> MIC612
or
b) A computer -> USB to RS-485 -> MIC612.
RS-485 is capable of controlling a true multidrop network and is specified for up to 32 drivers
and 32 receivers on a single 2-wire bus.
