43 RS485 Set Up Initial camera communication parametersIn an RS485 chain the matrix switcher, PC, controllers and cameras should be set to the same protocoland parameters for communication. Confirm the system protocol and parameters prior to setting the com-munication parameters for the camera.The initial communication parameters for WV-CS850 and WV-CS854 are shown on the RS485 setup menubelow. Other than the on-screen-setup parameters, the 4-bit DIP switch may be used to select 2-line (HalfDuplex) or 4-line (Full Duplex) communication. Changing the camera communication parametersYou can remote control this camera by using a specified extension unit such as a computer with amodem.1. Display the SET UP MENU. Move the cursor to RS485 SET UPand press the CAM (SET) key. RS485 SET UP menu appears onthe monitor.2. Move the cursor to the item and select the parameter by movingthe joystick to the left or right.UNIT NUMBERDisplays the unit number set by the DIP switch. If the switch is set to 1-32 or 1-96, select a number bymoving the joystick to the left or right. In an RS485 chain each unit must have a unique number.Default : 1. See INSTALLATION for DIP switch setting.SUB ADDRESSThis is only applicable to Panasonic’s NEW protocol, reserved for future use with connection to personalcomputers.BAUD RATESpecifies the transmission speed (2 400, 4 800, 9 600, 19 200 bit per second) for the RS485 communica-tion. The factory setting is 19 200.DATA BITSpecifies the number of data bits (7 or 8 bits) for the RS485 communication. The factory setting is 8.PARITY CHECKSpecifies the parity check mode (NONE, ODD, EVEN). The factory setting is NONE.STOP BITSpecifies the number of stop bits (1 or 2 bits). The factory setting is 1.X ON/X OFFSpecifies whether to apply flow control or not (NOT USE, USE). The factory setting is NOT USE.WAIT TIMESpecifies the time to wait until retransmitting after confirming that no data is received from the controller.(OFF: no transmission, 100, 200, 400, 1 000 ms).** RS485 SET UP **UNIT NUMBERSUB ADDRESSBAUD RATEDATA BITPARITY CHECKSTOP BITXON/XOFFWAIT TIMEALARM DATADELAY TIMERET11192008NONE1NOT USEOFFAUTO2OFFRS485 Setup menuIntelligent Security & Fire
