Guys, ive moved off up the coax telemetry on my dome, and moved to rs485, now ive addressed the dome as 1, but on the Sprite 2, the serial telemety typr, wont let me change it, it just says non ? Why is this? Anyone shed any light on this ?

you need to set your serial telemetry type in the setting before you apply a telemetry type to the head. While you can mix coax protocols per cam, you can only use 1 485 protocol, (or 2 i think on the new ones)

It still wouldnt let me do it, so i reinstalled the software on the sprite and its now selectable... Anyway, ive set serial comms to BBV 485 is that right ? do i just set it in Serila one or do i need to also set it at each camera telemetry setting?

if thats the right protocol for your dome (havnt got a 2060 manual with me) then yes, but you will also need to select the protocol for thae camera in the telemtry menu for that cam. You should have an additional one in the list now

Don't forget to make sure you are plugged into the correct port on the sprite, they differ per protocol - been caught on that one.

Make sure the baud rate of the port matches the dome - been caught on that one as well.

Make sure the dome address number is the same as the camera number - yep been cuaght on that one as well!

Guys, ive tried dennard and bbv485 protocol, and on the same address 01 as the channel camera, not sure you can change the baud rate on a sprite ?? not seen a setting the RS485 got into the right one BUS A + and - ???

Is it a Digi Sprite or a systems sprite?

Its a Sprite 2 Plus DVR

On the back you have 4 serial ports. One of them will be for BBV by default.

If you go System options, one of the settings is Serial and Telemetry ports edit. Here you set required telemetry protocol and baud rate for port.

Make sure you fit TX on sprite to RX on dome.

Dave

Brand new? if its new the data wires of bus A.

I have never uses a 2060 in 485 mode on a sprite, but there are different addresses for different protocols, ie 101 is pelco or something like that check you dome addendum. You will have to have the correct protocol set in the dome that matches the sprite. Aslo the baud rate is done for you. Might be worth shutting the sprite down properly though after chnages as i think it sets the serial port up at boot. (shutdown properly mind)
