alarm and connection board.

There are two sets of DIP switches. Note that the default protocol is
Pelco-D with a baud rate of 2400 bps.
Protocol / Baud
Pelco-D, 2400 bps
Pelco-D, 9600 bps
Pelco-P, 4800 bps
Pelco-P, 9600 bps
Make sure the camera ID on the DIP switches and the camera ID on the
controller are identical. When controlling more than one camera, it is
recommended to memorize the IDs and the location of each camera.
By changing the DIP switch setting, you can set the binary number for each
camera ID (1 ~ 63, except 0). Default camera ID is 1. Example: Set the
camera ID as 10: 0 + 2 + 0 + 8 + 0.
