4.7 Serial Communication Control
The camera can connect to a VISCA controller with an RS232C or and RS485 interface.
• RS232 Communication Settings:
The camera may be controlled via RS232 when set to the following parameters:
Baud rate: 2400, 4800, 9600 or 38400 bit/s.
Start bit: 1 bit.
Data bits: 8 bits.
Stop bit: 1bit.
Parity bit: none.
• RS485 Communication Settings:
The camera may be controlled via RS485 when set to the following parameters:
Baud rate: 2400, 4800, 9600 or 38400 bit/s.
Start bit: 1 bit.
Data bits: 8 bits.
Stop bit: 1bit.
Parity bit: none.
When the camera is turned on, the Pan-Tilt function will move to the maximum top-right position
and then will return to the center (Home) position to complete an initialization process. (Note: If
the position preset 0 has been stored, the position preset 0 will be called up after the initialization

below command list.
4.8 PTZ over TCP/UDP Control
The camera supports a TCP server via port number 5678. After the client establishes a TCP
connection with the server, the client may send PTZ control commands to the server to be executed.
A UDP server is also available via port number 1259. Once the client establishes a UDP connection
with the server, the client may send PTZ control commands to the server to be executed.

7. Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Camera Maintenance
⚫ If camera will not be used for a long time, please turn off the power, by disconnecting the power
supply from the AC outlet.
⚫ Use a soft cloth or tissue to clean the camera cover.
⚫ Please use an appropriate soft dry cloth to clean the lens. If the camera is very dirty, clean it with a
diluted neutral detergent. Do not use any type of solvents, which can damage the lens surface.
Avoid the Following
⚫ Do not direct extremely bright objects for a long period of time at the camera lens, such as sunlight,
very bright light sources, etc.
⚫ Do not operate this device in unstable lighting conditions, otherwise the image may flicker.
⚫ Do not operate this device close to powerful electromagnetic radiation, such as TVs, radio
transmitters, etc.
Troubleshooting
Image Issues
⚫ No image
1. Check whether the power cord is connected, voltage is OK, and POWER LED is ON.
2. Verify that the camera can successfully complete the self-test after startup.
3. Check that the video cable is not damaged and is connected correctly.
⚫ Abnormal video image
Check that the video cable is not damaged and is connected correctly.
⚫ Image dithering even at widest zoom position
1. Check whether camera is fixed correctly.
2. Make sure that there is no nearby vibrating machinery.
⚫ No video image shown in the browser
When the camera is accessed for the first time via a web browser, the user may need to install a plug-
in. Also if using this camera for the first time over the internet, the user may need to install a video
player software (such as VLC). Please go to the VLC webside: http://www.videolan.org/vlc,download
Page 32
MuxStream Camera 30X, PoE Operation Manual
32
and Install the VLC Player. After installation, login again, and the video image should be available.
⚫ Unable to access IP Camera by a browser.
1. Access the network with a PC to test whether the network works, to eliminate the possibility of
a faulty cable, or network failure caused by a PC virus. Ping the PC to confirm proper operation.
2. Disconnect the IP Camera from the network, and connect the IP Camera to the PC and verify or
reset the camera IP address.
3. Check the server's IP address and subnet mask and gateway address.
4. MAC addresses conflict.
5. Web port is occupied by other devices.
⚫ When modifying the IP address in an incorrect manner, this may cause the wrong IP address to be
created, or if the user simply forgets his password, press the IR remote controller
"[*]+[＃]+[Manual]" to restore the default value (Default IP: 192.168.100.88, Default username:
admin , and Default password: admin)
Control
⚫ IR remote controller cannot control the camera
1. Change the battery
2. Check the camera’s operating mode.
3. Check that the IR address on the IR Remote Control is set correctly.
⚫ Serial communication cannot control the camera
1. Check the camera’s operating mode.
2. Check that the RS232 cable is connected correctly.
3. Check the RS232 port settings.
