10 APPENDIX ABOUT RS485 BUS

10.1 RS485 Bus Main Feature

RS485 is semi duplex communication cable with an impedance of 120Ω. Its maximum load amount is 32 effective loads (including main control device and the devices that need to be charged).

10.2 RS485 Bus Transmission Distance

When we take a 0.56mm (24AWG) twisted-pair to use as a communication cable, the maximum transmission distances (theoretically) are listed below (according to different baud rates).

In the following situations, the maximum transmission distance will become shorter according to these three factors:

 The communication cable is a little bit thin;  The surrounding environment has strong electromagnetic interference;  There are too much devices connected to the RS485 bus;

The opposite of these factors will mean the maximum transmission distance will become longer.

10.3 The Problem in Practical Use

In practical usage, we usually adopt star type connection. The terminal resistance shall connect to the furthest two devices (Such as device 1# and device 15# in Figure 10-1 ). But this connection method does not conform to the RS485 Bus standard. When the distances between devices are too long, signal reflection occurs and antijamming decreases, thus the signal reliability becomes very low. You can see that the speed dome is not under control or the speed dome is running automatically and cannot stop.

In this situation, we recommend RS485 distributor. This device can turn a star type connection into the connection that conforms to the RS485 bus industry standard, which can avoid the above mentioned problems and enhance communication reliability. See Figure 10-2.

10.4 RS485 Bus FAQ

Phenomenon

Possible Reasons

Solution

Speed dome can run selfdiagnosis but I cannot control it.

 Host address (baud rate) and

speed dome address (baud rate) do not match;

 Positive and negative end of

RS485 Bus are not connected correctly;

 Connection cable is loose；  RS485 Bus connections are cut

off;

 Modify host or speed dome setup ；  Switch RS485 positive end and

negative end；

 Fix connection cable firmly；  Replace RS485 Bus.

I can control the speed dome but the movement is not smooth

 RS485 Bus connections are

poor；

 One of the RS485 buses is

offline；

 The distance between host and

speed dome is too far；

 Too many speed domes are

connected in parallel.

 Connect RS 485 Bus again；  Replace RS485 Bus；  Add terminal matching resistance；  Add RS485 distributor.

10.5 Daily Maintenance

Please clean dome cover regularly to continue receiving clear imagery. Handle the cover with care. Use water to wash. Don’t use a cloth to clean. Use mild detergent to clean the cover if there is too much dust to just.

Note:

Please take care not to touch plating surface with bare hands or skin, as this might transfer bodily perspiration upon it and the acidity of the perspiration may erode it. Uncovered hands may also cause nail scratches to the dome cover when handling. This will result in blurred images and impaired visual monitoring when using the device.
