GENERAL INFORMATION
General Information
Function Description
T his external keypad controller is used for the controlling, monitoring
and programming of RS485 system products.
Due to its compact size, it can be integrated everywhere
harmoniously. With this keypad controller, you can control single
components as well as complexCCTV systems. Clients within the
RS485 BUS are selected via the numeric keypad. Contact with the
corresponding client is confirmed by an acoustic signal and
additionally in the keypad’s info display. Messages such as target
address, type of receiver and e.g. camera movements are also shown in
the display.
I f you are using a matrix switcher, this is selected as central unit.
Connected pan/tilt heads or high speed dome cameras are
automatically enabled for control by the offset function integrated into
the matrix switcher. It is not necessary to additionally address them
directly.
T his keypad controller comes with a robust joystick with integrated
zoom function (effected by turning the joystick). This makes it be
possible to control connected pan/tilt head camera stations
respectively high speed dome cameras reliablyand easily. Just one
hand is required for tracking an object with the connected camera unit.
A potential separation with an optic-coupler (potential separator)
allows trouble-free data communication on the RS485 control line.

CONNECTION AND CONFIGURATION
Connecting the Keyboard
The clients are connected in a parallel way to the RS485 line
(conductors A and B). Up to 32 clients with a max. connection length
of 6 m can be connected to the main line.
The RS485 line can have a length of up to 1200 m. A transmission line
with 120 Ohm has to be connected to the start and to the end of it in
order to avoid signal reflections. The terminating resistor for the RS485
can be connected to each client with a jumper.
