The VP-RS2BLNX is a protocol converter that allows the
integration of remotely accessible cameras for control and
set-up into an (existing) RS-232 or RS-485 infrastructure.
When connected to Bosch cameras with Bilinx
capabilities, the VP-RS2BLNX converts RS-232 or RS-485
messages into Bilinx communication data. In this way,
Bosch cameras with Bilinx can be controlled directly from
computers, digital recorders or video management
systems.
The VP-RS2BLNX is suitable for use with Dinion, Dinion
XF
and all Bilinx-enabled AutoDome cameras. Applications
typically include Traffic Management systems and Video
Content Analysis systems where the camera performance
needs to be optimized during operation.
