PSU)
8. Power ON/OFF
2. If you connected the power cable to the camera, set the power switch at the back of the camera to 'ON'.
After empowering the camera, it starts initializing by first rotating the Pan-Tilt to the maximum top right
position and then to the center.
If position preset '0' has been stored, this is the position that will be called after initialization.
The current IR-channel setting and IP Address of the camera are displayed on the OSD Menu. From this point
onwards, the user can start controlling the camera.
Connecting a Controller to a Camera
You can connect one or more cameras to an VISCA IP controller.
See https://avonic.com/en/product-categorie/controllers/ for an overview of the available controllers.
A controller gives you direct control over the most important camera settings (e.g., Pan, Tilt, Zoom, Focus, White
Balance). You can access all other settings through the OSD Menu of the camera using the controller. The
camera(s) can be connected via a serial connection to USB, RS-232, RS-485, or via a LAN Ethernet connection.
Each of these options is described below.
Connecting via USB
Execute the following steps to connect the camera to a desktop or a (computer) monitor via USB2.0:
1. Connect the camera to the desktop or monitor via the USB2.0 port (see figure above).
2. Open the Windows Camera app or a third-party camera app and open the settings.
3. Select the camera, or click on the option / icon to change the camera to the camera you just
connected.
4. Press the MENU button on the provided IR Remote Control to open the OSD Menu.
See Using the Remote Control for more information on how to use the Remote Control.
16

Serial Connecting via RS-232 or RS-485

applicable COM port settings are (where '*' stands for 'Default value'):
RS-232
• Baud rate: 2400/4800/9600*/115200
• Start bit: 1 bit
• Data bit: 8 bits
• Stop bit: 1 bit
RS-485 (half-duplex mode)
• Baud rate: 2400/4800/9600*
• Start bit: 1 bit
• Data bit: 8 bits
• Stop bit: 1 bit
See Appendix A - VISCA Settings and Command List for the command list.
RS-232 Interface
The controller can be connected to the back of the camera via the RS-232 cables as shown below:
Figure 7: RS-232 Interface (Mini DIN-8) Figure 8: RS-232 Cable and Interface Connection (Mini
DIN-8 and Windows DB-9)
RS-232 Network Connection
Execute the following steps to connect the controller to the back of the camera(s) via RS-232:
1. Make a connection using daisy chaining network architecture. The max cable length is 10-15m.
Figure 9: RS-232 Network Connection Diagram
RS-485 Interface
Connect the controller to the + and - at the back of the camera via the RS-485 cables, as shown in
the figure below. Note that the color of the connecting cables (red and black in the figure) may vary.
Figure 10: RS-485 Interface
17

RS-485 Network Connection
Execute the following steps to connect multiple cameras to RS-485:
1. Attach the cameras to a 2-wire twisted pair bus (maximum length 1200m) that is terminated at
both ends with a 120Ω-impedance resistor.
2. Ensure that the maximum distance from the bus t of the camera or controller is 5m. If you use only
ONE camera, the impedance resistor is not needed.
Figure 11: RS-485 Network Connection Diagram
Connecting via LAN
Avonic cameras can be controlled by any device using a LAN and a standard switch.
Settings
By default, the IP address of the camera is "192.168.5.163" with "admin" for both the username and password.
The control parameters for the CM4x cameras are as follows:
• IP Address: 192.168.5.163
• Username: admin
• Password: admin
• TCP or UDP port: 1259
18

IP (Network) Connection
Execute the following steps an Avonic camera to a LAN:
1. Use a standard switch.
2. Ensure that addressing is done via IP. When using VISCA over IP, the 'x' in all the '8x' addresses is
always '1', where the Visca address in a Visca over IP environment is always 1. (See Appendix A -
VISCA Settings and Command List for more information.)
