• Baud Rate: 2400, 4800, 9600 or 38400 bps
• Start Bit: 1 bit
• Data Bit: 8 bits
• Stop Bit: 1 bit
• Parity Bit: None

RS-485 Overview

The left phoenix connector port is Positive (+)The right phoenix connector port is Negative (-).

The camera can be controlled via RS-485, Half-duplex mode, with support for VISCA, Pelco-D, or Pelco-P protocol.

RS-485 Parameters

• Baud rate: 2400/4800/9600/38400;
• Starting position: 1 bit
• Data bit: 8 bits
• Stop bit: 1 bit
• Check digit: None

note

To utilize an RS-485 connection, you will need an unterminated two-conductor cable

1. Connect the positive (red) wire to the camera’s positive phoenix connector port (left).
2. Connect the negative (black) wire to the camera’s negative phoenix connector port (right).
3. Connect the positive and negative wires to the positive and negative ports on your joystick controller.
   • To connect multiple cameras, you have the option to connect via daisy-chain or home run.
4. In either method, multiple wires will be connected to a single phoenix connector port
