PTZ/Instructions/Dip Switch Settings

Dip Switch Settings

Description

The corresponding functions of DIP switch for analog speed dome and HDCVI speed dome are different, which will be respectively introduced below.

• HD-CVI Speed Dome: You can see there are two DIP switches on the PTZ after opening the speed dome, which are

used to set address and baud rate of the speed dome.

• Analog Speed Dome: You can see there are two DIP switches on the PTZ after opening the speed dome, the two DIP

switches are used to set the parameters of address, baud rate and parity.

Instructions

DIP Switch Setup

Before you control the speed dome, please set the speed dome address number, baud rate, and parity. The speed dome will respond to its control command after completing all these settings.

• As for wall-mounted speed dome, it has to install transparent dome enclosure back in place

after taking out EPE and setting DIP switch well.

• It has to cut off the power and restart the device to make new settings valid after some

relevant information has been set again.

The two DIP switches on the PTZ are used to confirm the parameters of speed dome address, baud rate and parity. When you switch ON as 1, then 1 is the lowest bit and 8 is the highest bit in address setting dip switch; for baud rate and parity setting, 1 is the lowest bit and 4 is the highest bit.

NotePlease be noted that the speed dome can self-adapt to the industrial standard port.

Address Setup

The speed dome can use DIP switch to set address number, the encoding mode adopts binary coding system. 1 to 8 is valid bit, and the highest address bit is 255.

Baud Rate and Parity Setup

The functions which need to be set between analog speed dome and HDCVI speed dome will be introduced separately below.

Analog Speed Dome

It is to set speed dome baud rate and parity. Bit 1 and 2 are used to set baud rate in the dip bit from 1 to 4, bit 3 and 4 are used to set parity

HDCVI Speed Dome

It is to set speed dome baud rate. Bit 1 and 2 are used to set baud rate.

OSD DIP Switch Settings

Note: This setting is only available on certain models of HDCVI PTZ cameras.

To choose whether an HDCVI PTZ camera uses the DIP switch settings or OSD settings for video format (CVI, TVI, AHD, or SD), change the setting "Switch Type" to either "DIP" or "OSD".
These settings are located in the OSD under System Settings -> Switch Type.
The settings that adjust the video format in the OSD are located in System Settings -> Video Output.
