4 Set Protocol The Symphony Keyboard can be used to control up to 255 compatible RS485 devices e.g. speed dome cameras or Symphony DVR s (max 4). Each camera and DVR should be addressed with a unique ID. Determine the Protocol and Baud Rate in use with the devices to be connected and assign these settings to the Keyboard using the MODE switch settings as shown below. Protocol Pelco-D 2400Bps Mode switch 1 (Down) Pelco-P 4800Bps switch 2 (Down) Pelco-P 9600Bps switch 3 (Down) COP-2 9600Bps switch 1 & 2 (Down) When using the Keyboard to control a Symphony DVR, ensure the ID of the Unit does not conflict with those of the speed domes. Enter the option. Management >> System Settings >> 232/485. Select RS485 and check the ID of the unit and change if required. To avoid any possible conflict with the cameras it is recommended that you set the ID of the DVR(s) to be, for example 101, 102 etc. (then Camera 1 can be ID 001, Camera 2 can be ID002 etc.
5 Typical Configuration Termination resistor RS485 Buss switch 5 The RS485 standards require a daisy-chain connection between the equipment.
