The RS-232 connections are:
Tip Connect the wires from the server to either the green or red connector on the data converter. The
camera is connected to the corresponding orange or blue RS-485/RS-422 connector, as shown in
Figure E-13.
b. Connect a RS-485 or RS-422 serial cable between the data converter and the first analog camera in
the daisy-chain (
Figure E-13).
See the camera documentation for connection instructions. Serial port connections vary by camera
and manufacturer.
c. Connect an additional RS-485/RS-422 serial cable between the COM port on the first PTZ camera
to the COM port on the second PTZ camera, as shown in
Figure E-12 on page E-16.
