SERIAL PORT SETUP
The RS-422 serial port is the basic connector for communication between the DVR5100 and a PTZ camera when using a serial telemetry control
protocol. The speed of the serial port must match the speed programmed into the camera. Refer to the appropriate camera manual for serial port
speed details. Refer to Table S on page 70 for more information on serial port settings and defaults.
