Installation
Connection Schematic
The keyboard can be connected to various PTZ cameras, DVRs, and Matrix devices through the
keyboard adaptor. All accessories are tested for maximum compatibility and best performance.
For the rst start, please ensure
your keyboard parameters match
those shown on the initial screen (ie.
protocol, baud-rate, ID). Doing so will
allow you to enter the OSD for further
settings.
RS485 Cable-
The telemetric control of the device uses RS485 serial communication with half duplex
transmission technology. The transmission distance can vary, depending on cable type,
and baud rate. The following table shows maximum distances based on cable with 0,56mm
(24AWG) twisted pair:
Baud Rate Max. Distance
2400 bps 5577ft / 1700m
4800 bps 3609ft / 1100m
9600 bps 2297ft / 700m
19200 bps 1312ft / 400m
Due to environmental interfaces, such as electromagnetic and induction elds, or number of connected
devices on the RS485 bus, or using thinner than 24AWG cable, the transmission range may be less.

Star-Connection-
The star-form connection is most commonly used. It enables the connection of dierent dome
cameras with longer cable runs. It is recommended to use an RS485 distributor to ensure the
telemetric data transmission.
The advantage of the star-connection is that every channel can work independently and can
take a cable length up to 3,280 feet (1000 meters) (depending on cable quality). In cases where
more dome cameras are installed, the star-connection can be extended with additional RS485
distributors.

quality and environmental conditions, the transmission
distance might be less.

If the cable length is more than 1,312ft (400m), it is recommended to use optional accessories,
such as a video amplier or twisted-pair video converter, for boosting the video signal.
