6. KEYBOARD CONNECTORS RS-485 ports EKB-500 provides two independent RS-485 ports with 2 RJ-45 plugs each (loop-through). Pin assignment: Pin 1: 12 VDC Pin 3: RS-485 + Pin 6: RS-485 Pin 7: Ground Pin assignment RJ-45 connector connector box Delivery comprises a connector box for RS-485 and 12 VDC power supply connection enabling power supply connection either directly to the EKB 500 keyboard or through the connector box. RS-232 connector The 9-pin Sub-D connector is used for service purposes, e.g.
7. INSTALLATION 7.1. General RS-485 bus installation EKB 500 uses an RS-485 simplex wiring; the signal is transferred via a single twisted pair line. CAT5 network cable is recommended, UTP version (unshielded) is sufficient for normal application. A shielded cable should be used if the installed cables are expected to be highly susceptible to interferences. The number of devices installed in one bus is limited to 32 (expandable through signal distributors), while max.
also be expanded by using these distributors, physically providing a new RS-485 bus with 1200 m cable length each at every distributor output. In case the maximum number of 32 bus participants is exceeded, the number of connected devices can be increased by using RS-485 distributors. Each distributor output physically provides one RS-485 bus which enables the additional connection of 31 further devices (the distributor output represents one bus participant itself).
7.2. EPTZ 500 / 1000 / 3000 / 3500 Speed dome camera connection Applied protocol type: EVF2 (standard) 7.3 ED-2200, ED-2250, Samsung SCC-641, SCC-643 , SCC-6405 connection Applied protocol type: A-Type 10 EKB500_ma_en_rev1.
7.4. Connection of Pelco-D / -P protocol-compatible devices Basic functions of speed domes and telemetry receivers compatible to Pelco-D / -P protocol can be controlled with the EKB 500 keyboard if a simplex RS-485 connection option is provided. For general connection, please refer to the chart illustrated above. Applied protocol type: Pelco-D / Pelco-P (in accordance with dome / receiver) ATTENTION: Some Pelco-D / -P protocol domes and receivers require an address offset of -1 at the keyboard, i.e.
7.5 EDSR / EDR series’ DVR connection The EKB 500 keyboard can control the following digital video recorders: EDSR series (despite EDSR100 19" model) EDR-410/810/920/1640 (MPEG-4 series) Installation with standard network cable: For short distances, EKB 500 can directly be connected using a standard network cable (patch cable, uncrossed!). Connection with EDA998 connector kit: Place the EDA998 connector kit at the RS-485 bus for easy DVR installation. 12 EKB500_ma_en_rev1.
