14 PTZ Cameras
You can connect PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) cameras in one of the following ways for PTZ control:
on the Main I/O card
via a USB converter
via the coaxial interface (DTC card)
Each method is described in detail below.
14.1 Serial PTZ on MIO Card
Connect the PTZ camera to the MIO card as shown below:
Main I/O card
Next Generation
When using 5 wires to connect your PTZ camera to the Main I/O card, you also have a TX+ and TX–
terminal on the PTZ camera:
Connect the TX+ terminal to the RA terminal (number 24) of the Main I/O card, or the RX+ terminal
(number 35) on the MIO Next Generation card.
Connect the TX– terminal to the RB terminal (number 25) on the Main I/O card, or the RX– terminal
(number 37) on the MIO Next Generation card.
It is recommended to terminate the last (= the longest distance from the FastTrace 2 unit) PTZ
camera with a 120 ohm resistor. RS-485 cable length: max. 1200 m.
If you are connecting PTZ cameras from the same RS-485 bus to multiple FastTrace 2 servers,
set the RS-485 PTZ jumper on the Main I/O card to the 2-wire (PTZ) position.
RS-485 cable length: max. 1200 m.
