I have a customer who has purchased a second hand DM DVR and an unbranded PTZ.

We have having problems getting the DVR to control.

If correct I seem to recall that a BBV interface( or somthing like this) is required.

Can anyone confirm OR should the DVR just control PTZ just like with a normal DVR..

There is no problem with protocol and both are set to Pelco D 2400 baud.

Many thx

Chris

are you trying to use coax telemetry or twisted pair?

Not trying to teach you to suck eggs I hope, but is Polaruty of twisted pair right, and the address right ?

Some budget domes= Cop ones anyway wont accept programming pre-sets under No 16 with DM Sprites for some reason

Edit. Come to think of it, I'm not sure that DM units support Pelco D.

You are using a keyboard arent you ?

Just checked a site that I cover and Pelco D doesn't show up in the list of protocols. (DS2)

Pelco P or Pelco Coax only.

you might be able to update the firmware. I think the later units had pelco d. However in those days didnt use pelco so i cant remeber

The one i just checked was running

Software Version: 04.5 (062) M2IP - 03.1 (09.2)

Which should be the latest version, loads of protocols on there but not Pelco D sadly.

are you checking that from the camera settings or the serial telemetry settings?

Never had a problem yet.

James, Got the info connecting through netvu observer and then into config.

Seems an RX100 could be the way to go.
