CCTV lens Control

Many thanks about your reply. Not sure which brand our clients are going to choose.

About network, is there any special reason to choose RS422 instead of RS485?

Ioannis, I'm not sure why most manufacturers picked RS422 over RS485 since they both can go a long distance but it seems to be standard for the major manufacturers. Originally, they all tried to use their own proprietary networks but then they started selling their own brand of dome cameras for other manufacturers systems. For instance, the Pelco camera now has small adapter boards for each different brand of CCTV switch. My suggestion is to get your clients a bit more nailed down on what they plan to do.

Thanks a lot.

Yes, sometimes I really am very "elastic" with my clients. Have to quit that habbit...
