247 Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 Guys Got the above dome, its been working on a Geovision system for a while, not too happy with the geovision so i am putting this dome into different DVr, but i now want to control the dome through a compatable dome controller with Joystick, has any one used a cost effective controller or know of any other lowish cost with the correct protocols to run this dome. Many thanks Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian.cant Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 Cop do a cheapo and a more pro rkp, never used them and not sure what protocols theyre compatable with but it would be worth a chat with them i would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
247 Posted September 20, 2005 Author Share Posted September 20, 2005 Hi I tried the Cop version (the pro one), it says it is compatible with Panasonic protocols, and i can turn the camera left and right, i can zoom in and out and a few other things, but it wont look up and down, and i cannot access the on screen menu, so i would imagine the controller does not have a full set of protocols for the above dome.. Is there any alternative or fix anyone can recomend for this problem im using it on Rs485 the same as i did on the geovision unit Thanks in advance Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Selsport69 Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 Paul, Can I just ask why you are not happy with the Geovision? We use a fair bit of it over here and after using the Vista Columbus, Honeywell, Sanyo and Bosch range of DVRs I find the Geovision quite user friendly and reliable.

247 Posted September 20, 2005 Author Share Posted September 20, 2005 Hi I agree the Geovision is a very easy unit to use, and i have had no real problems, but being a windows based system it has had its fair share of problems with PC stability and for this reason i have decided to change it out, it has been replaced with an Anextek RS-116 , again another very easy to use system, running on a Linux based software and after using these for the last 2 years they are a very good machine with pleny of features, and at 480 FPS recording, they can actually work out a litter cheaper than the GV1000 with the same spec. The Anextek Rs-116 can work the dome with no issues's using the GUI but i want to use a controller with joystick and would have this issue no matter what DVR i was using Ps do you have the answer to my post Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will need a RS-232/RS485 Converter geovision do them connect the Trx and Rx (Green and yellow wires from your data cable i think), the instruction booklet should help with this and the plug into the com port of the pc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
