Serial Communication Control
In default working mode, the camera is able to connect to a VISCA controller with RS232C
serial interface.
RS232 Communication Control:
The camera can be controlled via RS232,the parameters of RS232C are as follows:
Bit rate: 2400/4800/9600 bit/s.
Start bit: 1 bit.
Data bit: 8 bits.
Stop bit: 1bit.
Parity bit: none.
RS485 Communication Control:
The camera can be controlled via RS485 in half-duplex mode:
Bit rate: 2400/4800/9600 bit/s.
Start bit: 1 bit.
Data bit: 8 bits.
Stop bit: 1bit.
Parity bit: none.
Pan-Tilt function rotates the camera to its maximum position of top right upon startup, then it
returns to the center, and the process of initialization is finished. (Note: if there is an entry for position
preset 0, the corresponding position preset 0 will be called up after initialization.) Then user can control
the camera with commands in the command list.
PTZ over TCP/UDP Realize
A TCP server is embedded in camera, port number 5678. When the user establishes a TCP
connection with the server, and sends a PTZ control command to the server, the server will parse and
execute the PTZ command.
A UDP server is embedded in camera, port number 1259. When the user sends a PTZ control
command, the server will parse and execute the PTZ command.

Command List
Ignore
Note:
The camera serial standard VISCA/Pelco-D/Pelco-P needs secondary development. If
VISCA/Pelco - D/Pelco - P protocol command is needed, please list in detail and contact the
manufacturer.
