For your camera, the RS-485 is used to control a PAN/TILT device, such as an external camera enclosure, to perform the PAN and TILT movement.
Stop Bit: 68 used in serial communication and you may use no parity. For even and odd parities, the serial port sets the parity bit (the last bit after the data bits) to a value to ensure that the transmission has an even or odd number of logic-high bits. For example, if the data is 011, for even parity, the parity bit is 0 to keep the number of logic-high bits even. If the parity is odd, the parity bit is 1, resulting in 3 logic-high bits. Either 1 or 2.

Installation and Operation Guide APPENDIX A. –IP camera UPnP How To The most troublesome issue when you setup an IP camera is that you have no idea what the IP address of this device is. Now IP camera supports the UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) protocol ® which makes it easier for you to examine it; however, Microsoft Windows XP doesn’t start this service by default. Therefore, the following procedures will help you to turn it on and discover your IP camera step by step as shown in Figure1 below.
Figure A-3 Step 3: Click the Protocols tab in the Network Connections dialog box. See Figure A-4. Figure A-4 Step 4: When the Local Area Connection Properties dialog box shows up, choose Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click Properties. See Figure A-5. Figure A-5 Step 5: In the Internet Protocol(TCP/IP) Properties dialog box, choose Use the following IP Address to indicate that you do not wish to use DHCP, and assign IP Address 192.168.1.200 with Subnet mask 255.255.255.0. Click OK when you finish it.
Installation and Operation Guide Figure A-6 Step 6: Choose Close to finish the modification. See Figure A-7. Figure A-7 2. Install UPnP Packets ® As described before, Microsoft Windows XP doesn’t start the UPnP service by default; however, we have to install some packets before we initialize it. The following steps will help you to install them. Step1: From the Start menu, point to Set Program Access and Default, and then click it. See Figure A-8.
Figure A-9 Step 3: Check the Network Services in the Windows Component Wizard dialog box, and then click Details…. See Figure A-10. Figure A-10 Step 4: Check UPnP User Interface, and choose OK. See Figure A-11. Figure A-11 Step 5: When the original Network Component Wizard dialog box returns, click Next. See Figure A-12.
Installation and Operation Guide Figure A-12 Step 6: After about one minute the UPnP installation will be done, and choose Finish to close it. See Figure A-13. Figure A-13 3. Turn on Services After installation, you must turn on the relative services to start the UPnP protocol. The following procedures demonstrate this. Step 1: From the Start menu, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel. See Figure A-14. Figure A-14 Step 2: When Control Panel appears, double-click the Administrative Tools icon.
Figure A-15 Step 3: Click on the Services icon in the Administrative Tools dialog box. See Figure A-16. Figure A-16 Step 4: When the Services dialog box shows up, double click the SSDP Discovery Service icon. See Figure A-17.
Installation and Operation Guide Figure A-17 Step 5: Choose Automatic in the Startup type, and click OK to start it. See Figure A-18. Figure A-18 Step 6: When the Services dialog box appears again, double click the Universal Plug and Play Device Host icon. See Figure A-19. Figure A-19 Step 7: Choose Automatic in the Startup type, press the Start button, and click OK to start it.
Figure A-20 Step 8: Restart your system. 4. Scan IP cameras through My Network Place After your installation and starting services, the UPnP protocol will take effect. You can scan all IP cameras in My Network Place like Figure A-21 below. Figure A-21 Just double click the UPnP IP camera the video live stream will pop up automatically without assigning any IP address in Microsoft Internet Explorer.
Installation and Operation Guide APPENDIX B. –Register as a DDNS member The DDNS（dynamic domain name system） is a function which is provided by an American company. Please refer to www.dyndns.com. This chapter provides the user with the basic instructions on how to register a free DDNS service. Registering for a DDNS Enter the URL www.dyndns.com. In the upper right-hand corner of the main page, where there is an item, ”Create Account”, as shown in Figure B-1.
Figure B-3 Click “My Services” to enter the service page. Please click the “Add Host Service” item which is below the ”My Hosts“ item, as shown in Figure B-4. Click “Add Host Service”, and its service items will appear. The Add Dynamic DNS Host item helps to add a new DDNS. Each member may have only one free account, and one free account can have only five DDNS. Click Add Dynamic DNS Host to enter the DDNS setting page as shown in Figure B-5.
Installation and Operation Guide Figure B-5 All we have to set in this page is the “Hostname” item. The user can choose a Sub Hostname as s/he likes from the right-hand side of the Hostname’s drop-down list. NOTE: You don’t have to set the “IP Address” in the same format as the camera’s IP Address. It will renew the IP Address automatically. After finishing the setting, please press the “Create Host” button as shown in Figure B-5.
APPENDIX C. –The Icons in the Analog Video OSD This chapter lists all icons displayed in the OSD and explains what their meanings are when they are shown. This icon means the IP address of the device is retrieved by a DHCP server instead of a static address. This icon indicates that the network is activated by an HTTP or FTP connection. This icon shows that the network connection is lost. This icon means that the device has received a configuration setup, but the data has not been flushed into the memory.
