What you can do
Serial connection to multiple cameras is possible using VISCA RS-422 or RS-232C. Up to seven units can be
assigned to a single remote controller.
* The cable can be up to 15 m long for RS-232C, and up to 1.2 km long for RS-422.
Setup instructions
1. Connect the devices using the diagram on the left as a reference, then turn them on.
For details on the RS-422/RS-232C connector of each camera, see “RS-422/RS-232C terminal of each
camera” (page 66) in the appendix.
2. Set the camera address using the DIP switch on the camera bottom or rear panel (BRC series only).
When the address is set to 0, the address is automatically set on the camera.
* On BRC-H900 and SRG-300H, use the DIP switch on the bottom or rear panel of the camera to select the
communication system (RS-422/RS-232C).
* Only automatic setting is available for the SRG series camera address.
3. Change the BAUD RATE (9600, 38400) using the DIP switch on the camera bottom or rear panel.
On the SRG-XB25, change BAUD RATE (9600, 38400) using the web settings screen.
4. After using the DIP switch, restart the camera.
