Supported Pan Tilt Drivers
A comprehensive list of currently supported drivers with their associated settings is provided below:
Driver Serial Settings Driver Specific Settings
Diamond Smartscan
(SCAN III Family)
Baud = 9600
Parity = Even
Databits =8
Stopbits=1
Define the unit identity, corresponding to the DIP switch settings
for the connected device(1-255).
Canon VC C3
Accommodates single device
connection only - per RS232
port.
Baud = 9600
Parity = None
Databits =8
Stopbits=2
None.
Sony G20/G21/D30/D31
(VISCA)
Accommodates up to three
devices connected in
daisy-chain.
Baud = 9600
Parity = None
Databits =8
Stopbits=1
AXIS 2400 only: Define the unit identity, corresponding the
order in which the device is connected in the daisy chain. Note:
Sony devices normally support automatic sensing and
chronological assignment of device identities for daisy-chain
configurations.
Videmech
(Universal Outstation
Communication Protocol)
Up to four devices connect to
the RS485 connector in the
terminal block.
Baud = 9600
Parity = Odd
Databits =8
Stopbits=1
Define the following:
Serial Address: the address of the head connected to the
camera corresponding to the DIP switch settings for the con-
nected device(1-255). Note: the address 255 is reserved for
broadcast, i.e all connected heads will receive commands
sent to this address.
Movement limits: the limits representing the end positions in
all directions; i.e left, right, up and down. These limits ensure
that head travel is kept within certain bounds and must be
used if there is any risk of obstruction in the device head
movement.
Zoom and focus limits: indicating the end position for focus
and zoom. In order not to stall the motors when approaching
the mechanical end positions of your lens, it is very impor-
tant that you limit the wide/tele intervals in accordance with
the physical travel restrictions for the lens mechanism.
Zoom and focus enabled: uncheck these boxes if you not
using a zoom and/or focus lens.
Optical Data: the MaxDeg setting should correspond to the
optimal width of the viewing angle at max wide; the MinDeg
setting should correspond to the minimal viewing angle at
max tele.
Ernitec ERNA
Up to four devices connect to
the RS485 connector in the
terminal block.
Baud = 2400
Parity = None
Databits =8
Stopbits=1
Define the unit identity, corresponding to the DIP switch settings
for the connected device(1-255).
Pelco Digital Coaxitron
Up to four devices connect to
the RS485 connector in the
terminal block.
Baud = 2400
Parity = None
Databits =8
Stopbits=1
Define the unit identity, corresponding to the DIP switch settings
for the connected device(1-255).
