2.3.4 Termination Switch Connection

To connect the DVR with multiple speed domes, the bus topology can be adopted, which means
the speed domes are connected with each other via the R+ and R- of RS-485 serial interface. Due
to the impedance of 485 wire, the longer the wire is, the greater the impedance gets. To avoid the
signal reduction caused by the great impedance of long distance transmission, connect two 120Ω
resistors in the circuit: one between the DVR and the nearest speed dome, and the other one after
the furthest speed dome; which means turning on the SW switches on the DVR and the furthest
speed dome.
Please make sure that the SW switches of the DVR and speed dome No. n are turned on, and
others are off.
