1. Go to the Hardware tab in the System settings dialog box (1).

2. Create the Telemetry Controller system object under the Computer object or select the corresponding object in the object tree in the Hardware tab of the System settings dialog box (2).

   

3. When the Telemetry Controller object is created, enter the ID, the name of the object and select the Server to the COM port of which the PTZ device is connected.

4. Select the protocol of data exchange with PTZ device in the list. The names of data exchange protocol in this list correspond to the names of PTZ types (3).

5. Select the serial port (COM) number in the Port list (4).

   Note
   title Important!
   The port is to be selected only if the PTZ device is connected to the computer COM port. Otherwise, if PTZ control is to be performed on the IP device, select the Remote COM port value. PTZ control commands will be sent via the device driver and the RS-485 or RS-232 network address will be set on the settings panel of the PTZ device object (see Configuring PTZ devices in INTELLECT™).

   title Note.
   If OKO telemetry system is in use, select the NM port number in the Port drop-down list (4).

   
   

6. Change the data exchange speed if necessary (5). 

   Info
   title Note
   Take into account that the data exchange speed via the COM port is specified by the vendor of PTZ device. The speed of data exchange with the PTZ device via the COM port must be the same as speed specified by the vendor.

   
   

   Info
   title Note
   If you need to change the COM port settings, change the relevant COM port settings in the Windows OS (information on how to configure COM port in the Windows OS can be found in  Appendix 4. Technical specifications of video capture cards ).

   
   

7. Change the parity check parameters for the data exchange if necessary (6).

8. If PTZ devices are passive (i.e. with no power supply), the power supply of the PTZ devices must be activated via the DTR or RTS outputs of the COM port by setting the DTR or RTS checkboxes checked (7,8).
