RS422(B). No additional power supply is required for the keyboard a powered junction box is being used.
Please Note, regarding Serial Control protocols (RS422/RS485 and RS232):
•When controlling only RS232 cameras, the keyboard can control a total of 7 RS232 cameras
•When controlling RS422 and RS232 cameras simultaneously, the keyboard can control a total of 7 RS232 and
RS422 cameras
•When controlling only RS422 cameras, the keyboard can control up to 14 RS422 cameras (2 daisy chains of 7)
•When controlling only RS485 cameras, the keyboard can control up to 255 RS485 cameras.
•The keyboard can control up to 255 cameras in one single system, among mixed protocols (RS422,
RS232, and IP)
•In one single system, within a same network, 128 keyboards can be used with IP protocol.
