How to connect a RS 422 485 joystick As with every serial communication there will be at least a 50 chance to confuse send and receive In doubt exchange RX with TX for RS232 or R R with T T for RS422 The DSub plug could also be used to connect a RS 422 485 joystick see chapter 5 2 1 but we recommend to use the terminal blocks instead 2 3 3 Controlling several CloseViews from one Joystick Most remote controllers allow you to control several PTZ cameras from one joystick The intended camera is distinguished by its camera address Since each CloseView unit asks for a joystick address see chapter 3 5 1 2 you can connect one remote controller to several CloseView units and assign each one a different address CAM 03 COM COM Joystick Joystick a M PTZ A PTZB Address 5 ww Address 8 Www Figure 14 Controlling several CloseViews from one joystick In the diagram above one joystick is used to control two CloseView units A and B Each of those units is connected to a corresponding PTZ camera Each PTZ has its camera address which you can typically set via its dip switches Here PTZ A is assigned address 5 and PTZ B is assigned address 8 Hence the PTZ Address see chapter 3 5 3 2 of CloseView A must be set to 5 and of CloseView B to 8 else you d get PTZ lost The joystick allows you to select an address too This address must match the Joystick Address see chapter 3 5 1 2 spec
