2.1 Interface instructions

AV-3106 is equipped with all kinds of
communication interfaces: RS232, RS422, RS485,
RJ45. The user can find them on the back of the

keyboard. With proper connections, this keyboard can
control target devices.

2.1.1 RS485 and RS422 interfaces

RS485 and RS422 interfaces are 6-bit ribbon cable
connections on the keyboard. RS485（A+, B-) can be
used to connect a dome, in order to control the dome
directly with the keyboard. RS485（A+, B-）can be used
to connect to a DVR or other keyboard when the dome is
controlled via matrix. RS422 (T＋, T－) is the “sending
signal” mode, while RS422 (R＋, R－) is the “receiving
signal” mode, and both modes can be used to connect to a
matrix, DVR and so on.

2.1.2 Power supply port

The power supply port is used to connect the

keyboard to 9V-12V DC/AC power. The keyboard itself is
equipped with an adaptor which converts 230VAV to
9VDC.

2.1.3 EIA RS232 interface

EIA RS232 interface is used to expand the
functions to control the menu handler, DVR, PC and so
on.

2.1.4 RJ45 interface

RJ45 interface is the standard network interface
which is mainly used for connecting the matrix for short
distance use (less than 7.6m). For more details, please

see “2.3 Matrix connections”.

2.2 DIP switch settings

There is an 8-bit DIP switch on the back of this
keyboard. Among the 8 bits, 1-7 bits are invalid, and the
8th bit is for end-of-line resistance (120Ω) setting for
RS485 bus line. When the 8th bit is set to “ON”, it
means the end-of-line resistance has been connected into
the system. For more RS485 (A＋, B－) bus line setting

information, please see “5.1 RS485 bus line

knowledge”.

2.3 Matrix connection

The keyboard can control matrices for PELCO
CM6700 and CM6800. In order to introduce the
connection between the keyboard and the matrix, take
connection to PELCO CM6700 matrix as an example.

There are two kinds of keyboard connection
interfaces on the back plate of CM6700 matrix: one is the
local keyboard connection interface RJ45 (“LOCAL

NOTICE

1. RJ45 local connection: the distance between the
keyboard and the matrix is less than 7.6m.

2. RJ45 interface is powered by 12VAC, which can
at the same time power the keyboard which is
connected to CM6700 matrix.

KEYBOARD”), which can control a single keyboard
within a distance of 7.6m; the other is the remote interface
RS422 (“REMOTE KEYBOARD(S)”), which can connect
to the RS422 interface on the keyboard. The maximum
distance is 1200m.

2. 3. 1 RJ45 local connection

2. 3. 2 RS422 remote connection

Connect one end of RS422 cable to RS422 interface
on the back plate of CM6700 (REMOTE KEYBOARD(s)),
and connect the other end to RS422 interface on the
keyboard. RS422 (R+, R-) on the keyboard corresponds to
matrix interface RS422 (T+, T-); RS422 (T+, T-) on the
keyboard corresponds to matrix interface RS422 (R+, R-).

Please insert one crystal head of RJ45 cable into the
RJ45 interface on the back panel of the keyboard, and
insert the other end into the RJ45 interface (“LOCAL KE­YBOARD”) of CM6700 matrix.

NOTICE

RS422 remote connection: the maximum distance
between the keyboard and the matrix is 1200m.

2.4 Connect to a dome directly

The user can connect the keyboard to a dome via a

RS485 cable for direct control. Make sure that keyboard
DIP switches are set in the direct control mode. To find the
RS485 interface of the dome: The user needs to turn the
metal button inside the hanging plate and open the cover.
There is a 4-Pin control/power socket, and the RS485
interface (A+, B-) can be found following the instructions.

Dome cameras from different manufacturers may
acquire different connections. Please see to the dome
installation manual before connecting to the keyboard.

2.5 Connect to a DVR

The keyboard can be connected to a DVR and a dome
via RS422 interface. RS422 (R+, R-) on the keyboard can
connect RS485 (A+, B-) or RS485 (T+, T-) on the DVR and
RS485 (A+, B-) on the dome separately.

2.6 Connect the keyboard in the system

The user can use the keyboard to control the alarm
box, and to connect the dome via the alarm box. Please
see the alarm box user manual for more details regarding
the connections. Every alarm box only can connect to
one dome camera.

The keyboard can control the matrix, and control
the domes indirectly by the matrix (see Picture2-6.1).
When the keyboard is not connected to the matrix, it
connects to a computer (DVR), and controls the dome
(see Picture2-6.2); or the keyboard can also control the
dome directly without DVR.

Several keyboards and dome cameras can be
connected in parallel, and access RS485 bus line. Each
keyboard can control a dome independently. Working in
this mode requires the user to set a main keyboard (the
main keyboard ID is set to 1), and the Baud rate of the
keyboard is set to 9600bps (see Picture 2-6.3).

In the previous pictures, the connections between
keyboard and keyboard or between keyboard and
computer are all via RS232, however, when the distance
between devices is more than 20m, it is suggested that
RS485 should be used.
