I have three cameras with a single rs-232 connection and a controller. In the video, you used an in/out dongle. Can you tell me where to get this? I've search with no luck.
Can i connect the cameras not in daisy chain as they are in different directions
Of course! If you're using BZBGEAR cameras, call us and we'll walk you through.
I bought what I thought was a joystick and camera similar to what you show. The joystick i received only has RS485 block, no 232. The camera I have only has RS232 (mini 8) connector. I tried a RS485 to RS232 converter, but no luck. Both the camera and joystick claim they support VISCA, Pelco B & D. Any ideas on how to convert or should i return the joystick?
Hello, While similar in function, RS232 and RS 485 are not compatible with each other, so unfortunately it does not seem the product you purchased will fit your needs for control. Feel free contact one of our knowledgeable sales Reps so they can help guide you to a product that will fit your application like the controllers below! Both will do RS232.

Thanks for the comment and watching BZB TV!
the cable you used to connect from the joystick to the 1st camera is different to the cable used to extend to the 2nd camera. What is the name of the cable from the 1st camera to the 2nd camera?
Thanks for this informative video!
Glad it was helpful!
Pregunta crucial, soy nuevo en esto.
¿Se puede hacer toda esta configuración sin conexión? Es decir, ¿no necesito estar conectado a una red de Internet y solo hacerlo dentro de una red local usando nada más que el switch POE?
Quiero hacer esta configuración en zonas rurales donde no hay conexión a internet, ni wifi ni red Ethernet, pero me interesa utilizar el protocolo POE por su practicidad.
¿Es eso posible? El video solo se grabaría localmente utilizando un dispositivo de captura como OBS.
Otra pregunta, ¿puedo usar un controlador y usar diferentes cámaras PTZ de diferentes marcas o necesito tener las cámaras de la misma marca que el controlador?
Muchas gracias, espero que me puedas ayudar.
hello, I have connected 2 PTZ cameras using 485 connection. I can controller both cameras with the controller but when I which to camera 2 I get no video, Do I need to run a video line to the monitor from camera 2? I am using OBS on my computer.
Hi Don, are you using BZBGEAR cameras and can you please walk us through your connections?
Hi! I am planing to get a joystick with rs485 connector only, and my ptz camera has rs485 connector too... Can i connect those two by using 2wire rs485? Thank you!
Hi Jan, yes, you can conect using a 2-wire. Please see this video regarding Serial Connections.

Thanks for watching!
Is the an RS422 adaptor to Ethernet for long runs to a network hub ?? Lmk thanks
Hello, yes you can use Category (CAT5/6) cable to extend the signal, but the devices should have the bare wire connection screw terminals included for connection. What equipment are you working with?

hello. Are the camera positions saved forever or do I have to reconfigure them every time the controller is turned on? Thanks
Hello, the presets are saved in the memory until the controller is either reset or you create new presets over them.
Thanks for watching and commenting!
How do you change the speed for each set or pattern?
With joystick controllers, you can usually set the speed manually on the unit itself.
Hello! The “beep” of the keyboard can be turned off? If its possible, how it is done?
Hello Roland, please see the manual 5-7 pages, described below.
bzbgear.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/manuals/BG-CJ-RS-manual.pdf
In the System Menu Settings, select option #4 (SOUND)

turn key beep ON or OFF.
