other units on the network. See IP Address Setup Information on page 122 for
information on how to set up your unit’s IP address.
• It is possible to have multiple units, dome cameras, and keyboard devices installed
on the same RS-485 bus. If this is the case, make sure that each device has its own
unique address.
• The ControlCenter 200/300 Keyboard requires an RJ-11 to RJ-45 adapter or
connector. If there are multiple keyboards, the first keyboard connected is
powered by the RJ-11 port, while the remaining connected keyboards must use a
separate power source.
WARNING: POWER SHOULD BE OFF BEFORE MAKING CONNECTIONS.
