Assigning Cameras via RS485

Wiring
Uża jew il-kejbil tal-adapter tat-terminal XLR bi 3 pinnijiet għal 2 pinnijiet inkluż jew ibni kejbil billi tuża plagg XLR bi 3 pinnijiet. L-RS485 jeħtieġ biss żewġ wajers biex jikkomunika. Għal pariri dwar il-wajers għall-RS485, ara l-kapitlu 8.
Power Up
Qabbad il-Provvista tal-Enerġija ta' 12V inkluża jew l-Ethernet bil-PoE mal-RCP-PLUS. L-unità se turi l-paġna prinċipali wara madwar 10 sekondi. Hemm 10 buttuni disponibbli għall-assenjazzjoni tal-kamera f'dan il-Grupp. Dan jista' jkun dak kollu li hu meħtieġ meta jintużaw konnessjonijiet RS485. (Il-protokoll Visca huwa limitat għal 7 kameras). Il-konnettività IP tippermetti sa 100 kamera f'10 paġni (ara t-Taqsima 4 hawn taħt).
Assigning a Camera to a button.
Il-buttuna tax-xellug ta' fuq se tkun enfasizzata. Jekk le, agħfas u żomm buttuna vojta għal 3 sekondi u itlaqha.

Pass 1. Press VISCA over RS485. The camera add page appears.

Pass 2. Press Select Camera Model

Pass 3. Select the camera model number that most closely matches the Marshall camera that is connected.

Per example: select CV36*/CV56* when using a CV368.

Nota: Selecting Universal is only recommended for 3rd party products.
The RCP-PLUS can control only functions that exist in the attached camera even though that function may appear as a choice on the display.

Pass 4. The RCP-PLUS assigns the first camera “Label” as 1. If the camera will be referred to as some other number during live production,the label on the button may be changed to a number or letter as desired. Press RCP Label, turn the left knob clockwise for numbers, counterclockwise for letters. Choose one. Next, press Camera ID, turn the right knob to set the ID number to match the ID number that is set in the camera. With Visca, each camera much have a unique ID number from 1 – 7.

Pass 5. Press Select Output Format to set the desired camera output format and Frame Rate by making selections on the next page.

Pass 6. Press Apply to make these changes active. The display will change to the White Balance page (WB is highlighted) and is ready for use.

Pass 7. Assuming the camera is connected and powered, a quick check can be performed by pressing the OSD button, then press On. The camera’s on-screen menus should appear in the camera’s video output. Press On again once or twice to clear the menu display.
If this quick check worked, normal operation can begin by selecting the desired function from the right side of the screen (White Balance, Exposure, etc.). If the quick check did not work, check all connections,try having only one camera connected, check that the Visca ID # in the RCP-PLUS and the camera are the same, and try swapping + and – at one end of the cable.

Connecting RCP to a Network

Agħżel DHCP jew Indirizz Statiku

Issettjar tal-modalità DHCP (Indirizz IP Awtomatiku)
Biex tikkontrolla l-kameras permezz tal-IP, huwa neċessarju li l-ewwel tqabbad l-RCP-PLUS man-netwerk lokali. Dan ifisser li tassenja indirizz IP, Subnet Mask u Gateway. Jekk indirizz Statiku mhux meħtieġ, allura huwa proċess sempliċi li tpoġġi l-kontrollur fil-modalità DHCP (indirizz awtomatiku), tqabbdu fiżikament permezz ta' kejbil CAT 5 jew 6 man-netwerk u tgħaddi għat-taqsima

Connecting Cameras via IP.
Biex tpoġġi l-RCP-PLUS fil-modalità DHCP, taptap fuq kwalunkwe kwadru vojt imbagħad taptap fuq Net. Issa taptap fuq il-buttuna DHCP fin-nofs tal-iskrin sabiex tgħid DHCP ON, imbagħad erġa' taptap Net.

Indirizz Statiku
If it is desired to assign a Static IP address to the RCP-PLUS controller, this can be accomplished in either of two ways:

Through the RCP-PLUS touch screen. This method would be chosen if it is not possible to access a computer that is on the local network. Setting a network address via the touch screen will require knob turning, button tapping and some patience.
Permezz ta’ a web browser. If a network computer is available, this method is quicker as address numbers may simply be typed.

Biex tuża l- Web Browser, aqbeż għas-sezzjoni 5. Web Browser Setup.
To use the touch screen, continue with the steps below.

On the touch screen, tap any blank square, tap Net, then tap the DHCP button so that it says DHCP OFF.

Dan iwassal biex il-kaxxa tal-indirizz IP ikollha bordura enfasizzata u l-indirizz awtomatiku ta' 192.168.2.177 jidher hemmhekk. (Jekk ġie ssettjat indirizz Statiku qabel, dak l-indirizz jidher minflok).

L-indirizz jista' jinbidel billi ssegwi dan il-proċess pass pass:

Pass 1. Press down on the Right Knob. An arrow will appear to the left of the address indicating that the first part of the address is to be changed. If this part of the address is OK (for example 192), dawwar il-Buttuna tal-Lemin sakemm il-vleġġa tipponta lejn il-parti tal-indirizz li teħtieġ li tinbidel.

Pass 2. Turn the Left Knob until the desired number appears. Turn the Right Knob again to move the arrow to the next 3 digits. When the desired address has been entered, press down on the Right Knob to complete the process. This is indicated by the numbers turning white and the border around the numbers being highlighted with a color.

Pass 3. Now, turn the Right Knob again to select Netmask or Gateway. Repeat the process above to enter new values into those boxes. Press Net again to finish. This sets the new Static address as the Default address.

Assigning Cameras via IP

Now that the RCP-PLUS is connected to the local IP network (section 4.1 above), cameras can be assigned to control buttons and labeled.

Press and release an available square button (2 seconds). The camera add page will appear.
TAP the VISCA over IP button. The message “Searching Visca IP” will appear for a moment.

An IP address will appear in a window. When more than one IP camera is on the network, tap the address to see a list of all camera addresses.
Choose the address of the camera that is to be assigned by sliding up or down on the list to highlight the desired camera.
Tap Choose to select a camera or Cancel to start again.

Pass 1. Press Select Camera Model
Agħżel in-numru tal-mudell tal-kamera li l-aktar jaqbel mal-kamera Marshall li hija konnessa. Pereżempjuample: select CV37*/CV57* when using model CV374.

Nota: Selecting Universal is only recommended for 3rd party products. The RCP-PLUS can control only functions that exist in the attached camera even though that function may appear as a choice on the display.

Pass 2. The RCP-PLUS names the first camera button label as “1”. If the camera will be referred to as some other number during live production, the label on the button may be changed to a number or letter as desired. Press RCP Label, turn the left knob clockwise for numbers, counterclockwise for letters.

Pass 3. Press Camera ID, turn the right knob to set the ID number to match the ID number that is set in the camera. With Visca, each camera much have a unique ID number from 1 – 7. It is important that this number matches the Visca ID number set in the camera.

Pass 4. Press Select Output Format to set the desired Output Format and Frame Rate.

Pass 5. Press Apply to make all changes active. The display will change to the White Balance page (WB is highlighted) and is ready for use.
Confirmation: A quick check can be performed by pressing the OSD button, then press On. The camera’s on-screen menus should appear in the camera’s video output. Press On again once or twice to clear the menu display.
Jekk din il-verifika rapida ħadmet, kollox huwa sew u t-tħaddim normali jista' jibda billi tagħżel il-funzjoni mixtieqa min-naħa tal-lemin tal-iskrin (Bilanċ tal-Abjad, Espożizzjoni, eċċ.).

Jekk il-verifika rapida ma ħadmitx, iċċekkja l-konnessjonijiet kollha, u kkonferma li l-vidjow li qed jiġi mmonitorjat huwa mill-kamera li qed tiġi kkontrollata.

Tips and Best Practices for RS485 Connections

RCP-PLUS huwa ddisinjat biex jaħdem taħt kundizzjonijiet ħżiena u biex ikun sempliċi biex jiġi implimentat. Karatteristiċi ewlenin:

Konnessjonijiet sempliċi bbilanċjati b'żewġ wajers (bħal awdjo bbilanċjat). Il-wajer tal-ert mhux meħtieġ.

Apparati multipli jistgħu jiġu konnessi fuq l-istess par ta' wajers. Normalment m'hemmx bżonn ta' hubs, ripetituri attivi, eċċ.
The preferred wire type is simple twisted pair. Doorbell wire, a pair inside CAT5/6 cable, etc.
Shielded wire is OK but attaching the shield at only one end is best practice. This is especially true when cameras are powered from a different source than the controller which could lead to AC current flowing through the shield.

Wajer tal-ispiker, wajer AC mhux rakkomandat minħabba li m'għandux tidwir. It-tidwir jirrifjuta l-interferenza li ssir importanti għal wajers twal.
Filwaqt li ħafna apparati jistgħu jiġu konnessi f'daqqa, l-użu tal-protokoll Visca jillimita n-numru ta' apparati (kameras) għal 7.
Il-konnessjonijiet RS485 ġeneralment ikunu ttikkettjati b’“+” u “-“. Dan ma jindikax il-qawwa, iżda l-polarità tad-dejta biss, għalhekk huwa sikur li tqabbad il-wajers bil-maqlub, sempliċement mhux se jaħdmu b’dak il-mod.

Il-mudelli tal-kamera Marshall Miniature u Compact isegwu r-regola ta’ “plus” għal “plus” u “minus” għal “minus”. Jiġifieri, il-konnessjoni mmarkata + fil-kamera għandha tmur għall-konnessjoni mmarkata + fil-kontrollur.
L-aktar raġuni komuni għaliex kamera ma tirrispondix lill-kontrollur hija li l-ID # tal-Visca fil-kamera ma jaqbilx mal-ID # tal-Visca ssettjat fil-kontrollur.
The second most common reason is that the wire polarity is reversed. Some 3rd party cameras follow a + to – rule which can be confusing. This is why simply swapping the connections at one end of the wire is worth trying when an RS485 system does not work.

Jekk kamera waħda fuq string tkun imqabbda bil-maqlub, dan iwaqqaf il-komunikazzjoni bejn l-apparati kollha fuq is-string. L-aħjar li tittestja b'kamera waħda biss qabel ma twaħħal il-bqija tal-kameras ma' string.
Diversi rati ta' Baud (veloċità tad-dejta) huma magħżula bl-RS485. L-apparati kollha fuq string iridu jkunu ssettjati għall-istess rata. Il-valur awtomatiku huwa dejjem 9600. M'hemm l-ebda vantaġġ realitage to using higher Baud rates since camera control information is very small and reliability over long wire runs. undemanding. In fact, a higher Baud rate reduces
Mistoqsija komuni hija jekk l-RS485, l-RS422 u l-RS232 jistgħux jiġu konnessi flimkien. L-RS485 u l-RS232 mhumiex kompatibbli mingħajr konvertitur u, anke dakinhar, jistgħu ma jaħdmux flimkien. Xi apparati li jużaw l-RS422 jaħdmu bl-RS485. Irreferi għall-manifattur ta' dawk l-apparati għad-dettalji.

Żewġ kontrolluri spiss jistgħu joperaw fuq l-istess sistema RS485. L-ispeċifikazzjoni tal-RS485 tiddikjara li dan huwa possibbli. Madankollu, il-protokoll Visca jassumi li kontrollur għandu ID #0, li jħalli l-ID # 1-7 għall-kameras. Jista' jkun hemm kunflitt meta jintużaw kontrolluri ta' partijiet terzi.
