<PROTOCOL>: The protocol of control device. <COM>: The communication of control device. <BAUD RATE>: The baud rate of control device. <START ADD>: The start address before searching, range: 000~255 <DIRECTION>: Inspect the camera rotates direction, turn left or right. <AREA>: Search the address range, user could not change. Remark: Protocol, communication, baud rate could not revise in the menu; user could change them in system setup menu. 2) Press <SET>, the number beside the <SEARCH> is blinking. 3) Press<Enter/OPEN>, the number beside the <SEARCH> begin increasing when user found the camera start rotate or stop, press<enter/open>, until the <AREA> address range are the same. For example: <AREA> 007-007, that means the camera address is 007, user could enter the PTZ control menu revise the <SET ADD> number as the same as the searching number to check whether it is correct. Remark: The default searching start address is 001, direction is turn right, user could change it to left/right in a work situation. 4) Change Start Address User could use Up/Down direction key to move the cursor to the <START ADD>, Left/Right direction key choose the parameter, such as 007, then the search area is 007~255, then operate it as the (3) operation. 5) Change Direction User could use Up/Down direction key to move the cursor to the <DIRECTION>, Left/Right direction key choose the parameter, user select the opposite direction according to the PTZ motion state. For example, the PTZ move to left, user should select right, then operate as the (3) operation. 13
