CONNECTING A PTZ CAMERA
Setting up a PTZ Camera is simple. The HVR comes preassembled with an internal PTZ adapter. The cabling may be run up to 4,000
ft using 22 Gauge Twisted Pair.
It is important to understand how the PTZ connects to the HVR. The HVR outputs an RS-232 signal and converts in to an RS-422/485
signal which is then sent to the PTZ camera.
Attaching the 3-Pin Adapter
1. Locate the PTZ adapter cable.
2. Connect the two wires of the PTZ adapter to the PTZ camera. The red wire
on the adapter should connect to the RX+ on the PTZ and the brown wire
should connect to the RX-.
3. Connect the other end of the adapter to the HVR as shown.
4. Assign the PTZ camera an ID number in PTZ Setup that coincides with the
number assigned to the camera. This is normally done utilizing a dip-switch
configuration method on the addressable dome.
Tip
OpenEye recommends that the ID of the camera coincide to the input
number on the HVR. This will make future troubleshooting and
configuration less complex.
Attaching the 4-Pin Adapter (240 & 480 H.264 models)
1. Locate the PTZ adapter cable
2. Connect the wires of the PTZ adapter to the PTZ camera. The yellow wire
should connect to the RX+ on the camera and the orange wire should
connect to the RX-.
3. Connect the other end of the adapter to the HVR as shown.
4. Assign the PTZ camera an ID number in PTZ Setup that coincides with the
number assigned to the camera. This is normally done utilizing a dip-switch
configuration method on the addressable dome.
Example: If the camera is plugged into input number 5, set the PTZ unit to ID
number 5.
