Daisy-chain connections.
When initializing the PTZ-units, a "Device ID" will be assign to each connected unit in the daisy-chain. The first unit in the chain will get "Device ID" 1, the second unit will get "Device ID" 2 and so on.
A power fail on some of the units in the daisy-chain will interrupt the communication will all the following units in the daisy-chain. When the power is back again, a re-initialization is required to be able to communicate with the units again. When changing the connection order of the units on the daisy-chain, a re-initialization is required to assign "Device ID" to each unit. After a re-initialization of the daisy-chain, the mapping of Video sources and "Device ID" have to be checked and updated. The preset positions may also need to be verified.
An initialization of the daisy-chain can be made by restarting the camera server or by changing the mapping of the video sources or by changing "Device ID" in the configuration.

Video Source Configuration

Parameter Description Range
Device ID This is the address of the connected device. Since the PTZ-units operates in a daisy-chain configuration the first unit in the chain will have Device ID 1, the second unit will have Device ID 2 and so on. 1-9
