Physical Wiring Interface: Socket Pin definition 1.2.1 Standard RS232 port - RJ-45 socket pin definition Video server has a RS232 standard port， adopt 1-45 socket definition of each pin is below, I means video server input, O means video server output.。 （1） When video server’s port is connected with DTE/DCE equipment, one side of the cable is RJ45 socket the other side is DB25 style socket. 25 cores bore style socket. The way to connect 25 cores bore style socket with RJ45 is below: （2） picture2.
（3） To connect 25 cores bore style socket with 9 cores bore style socket conversion is below： picture2.3 the connection with DB25 and DB9 （3.1）the cable connect video server with DTE( terminal) equipment One side of the cable is 8 cores RJ45 socket, the other side is DB9 core style socket. picture 2.4 the connection with RJ45 and DB9 （4） When connect video server’s port with DCE（ MODEM） equipment, one side of the cable is 8 cores RJ45 socket, the other side is DB25 needle style socket.
Picture 2.5 the connection with RJ45 and DB25（ DCE） Definition of RS485 port - RJ-45 socket pin. To use CAT5 cable for PTZ control, cut one end of a standard CAT5 network cable and use the orange and orange/white for the RS485 data connection of the PTZ camera. Other end of the RJ45 connector pin should plugged in to the RS485 port of the Video Server.
Configuring the Wireless Access Point/Bridge The Wireless IP Kit has a summary sheet enclosed inside the box for the default IP settings of the Video Server and Wireless Access point. There are two ways to configure or make changes to the IP settings of these two devices. First, use the default IP information; second, make changes of IP settings to these two devices by making direct connections to both devices. A. Configuring the IP Address of Wireless Access Point/Bridge 1.
Use these ports for video cables AC cable outlet POE port for the Wireless Antenna Step 2: Connect the Wireless Antenna Ethernet cable to the POE port of the Wireless Kit box. Plug in the main AC cable to your AC wall outlet to power up the whole system. 1.
