Digital I/O & Ptz; Ptz Settings - GeoVision GV-VS02 User Manual

4.2 Digital I/O & PTZ
For auxiliary device control, you can find one I/O / PTZ port for I/O and PTZ control along
with one RS-232 terminal block for GPS control on the rear panel of GV-VS12 (see Figure
1-9). Differently, on the rear panel of both GV-VS02 and GV-VS02A, all the functions for
auxiliary device control are included in a 16-pin terminal block. For details, see Chapter 9
Auxiliary Device Connectors.
The connectors for all terminal blocks on all models and the I/O / PTZ port on the GV-
VS12 can be divided into four categories based on the interface being used:
1. Digital Input / Relay Output
2. RS-485 interface for PTZ control
3. Wiegand interface for access control (available on GV-VS02 and GV-VS02A)
4. GPS interface for vehicle tracking:
•
UART: available on GV-VS02 (Hardware Version 2.0) and GV-VS02A
•
RS-232: available on GV-VS12

4.2.1 PTZ Settings

Through the RS-485 interface on the I/O terminal block, you can connect up to 2 PTZ
cameras. Before using this function, you must install the PTZ components from the
Software DVD by selecting Install PTZ on the installation menu. Then open this PTZ
Settings page to configure the baud rate, speed and address. For these settings, please
consult your PTZ documentation.
Note: Currently the GV-Video Server doesn't support the PTZ camera with RS-232
interface.
