I. Su ary
The keyboard controller is used for ter inal receivers such as the intelligent speed do e and the decoder etc.
Taking the EIA/RS-485 electrical interface between the keyboard and the receiver, one keyboard can control
as uch as 32 speed do e and decoders without driving the bus and the axi u co unication distance
between the keyboard and the receiver is up to 1.2 k . It is very easy for operating and setting the speed
do e ca era. The controller is also to control the ter inal receiver to achieve the function of controlling
pan/tilt, lens and etc.
Main Functions:
Set the address range of the do e ca era and the decoder：0～255.
To directly control full functions of speed do e ca era. For exa ple: turn ON/OFF ca era BLC.
To operate the pan/tilt of speed do e ca era oving in different speed level
To set up 128 preset positions and 6 cruising tracks for speed do e ca era and call any of the . Each
cruising track contains up to 16 preset positions. You can set up the staying period and oving speed for
each preset position.
To control speed do e ca era by anual/auto operation. It is possible to change the initial set through
setting the speed do e ca era enu.
Manually control the focus, zoo and iris of the ca era.

You can use the speed joystick to control the
Pan/Tilt direction and speed of the speed do e
rando ly. The speed of pan/tilt is decided by the
angle of the joystick you operated (Figure 3).
Change the tilting angle of the joystick you can
adjust the speed evenly and the ca era can be

VIII. Points for Attention：
Please read the operation anual of the keyboard carefully before using it.
The operation anual is ainly focused on all functions of PELC -D, PELC -P and NE N Protocols.
For other different protocols, operations could be so ething different and those different parts will be listed on
“Supplementary Description of the Keyboard Controller” in details.
The keyboard takes DC12V power supply. Please confir the voltage and polarity before the power
supply is switched on.
Do not place the keyboard under the rain or on wet place so as to avoid short circuit or electrical shock.
As the keyboard is a sophisticated electronic device, you should never open the case so as to avoid the
occurrence of trouble.
The keyboard has integrated ultiple protocols, and you are pleased to select correct protocol and the
