Basic Operation and Configuration
Note
If using the Bosch protocol, select
SerialRemote 2
and wait for
the page to refresh to configure the Remote Port Settings such
as Speed (baud rate), Data Bits, Parity, and Stop Bits. Select
the appropriate Hardware Protocol (RS-422 or RS-232), and
set the Address parameter to the appropriate Bosch address. If
necessary, click Save to save the changes.
AutoPan Function:
In many cases with a pan/tilt camera, it
may be desirable to use a simple back-and-forth (left-right)
scan pattern, rather than a Scan List set of presets. To use the
AutoPan feature (also known as Auto Scan), set the left and
right pan limits and the pan speed, and then start the AutoPan
mode. The functions for setting up the AutoPan limits and for
controlling the AutoPan function are available using presets
and are described in the following table.
Serial Extensions:
In addition to the set of standard commands that would be used on an ordinary
CCTV camera, control commands that allow access to more advanced features, or features that are
specific to a particular type of equipment, are available through extensions to the serial protocol.
These extended commands are quite useful when controlling features that are specific to FLIR thermal
cameras.
In the Pelco D protocol, these additional functions can be accessed using the Aux On and Aux Off
extensions and are available by default. Many keyboards that support Pelco protocols have Aux On
and Aux Off buttons for selecting these functions. As an example, the following functions are typically
supported by default
Typical Bosch systems operate over a biphase connection. FLIR cameras do not accept biphase
signals directly. It may be necessary to install a biphase converter in order to use Bosch protocol.
