How to use 232Analyzer to control the Pelco-P cameras
Note: Make sure your COM port settings match the
settings of the cameras.
Suppose you are controlling camera address no.
1 to pan left at medium speed (command string: A0 00
00 04 20 00 AF 2B )
Way 1: From the command pane - choose "Hex" as the TX
data format and key in the command string "A0,00,00,04,20,00,AF,2B," in the input box as shown below and then click on "Send" button.
The command will then be sent out immediately and you will notice the
camera panning left continuously.
Note: If you are using the FREE Version, choose "Dec" as TX data format
and key in "160,0,0,4,32,0,175,43,"

Way 2: From Programmable buttons
Download and unzip the Pelco-DP.zip file, then open "Pelco-P.232"
file from
232Analyzer program. When you click on the first button "Lef", the command will
be sent out after 500ms


5) Have fun playing with 232Analyzer and
Pelco-P cameras
The programmable buttons 1 to 8 will trigger the camera's action
continuously. To stop, you have to send out the "Stop" command
"A0 00 00 00 00 00 AF 0F" (or "160 000 000 004 032
000 175 043" in Decimal format) to the
camera.
"Pelco-P.232" file allows you to send two (2) commands
with the click of a button, e.g. when you click on "Lef" button on the
second row (button no. 9), the camera will pan left for 500ms and then
stop. This is because button no. 9 is linked to button 17, which stores
the "Stop" command. (Note: Programmable buttons 9 to
16 will trigger the camera's action for 500ms and will stop automatically).
You may program it in such a way that the camera pans left for 500ms, stops, tilts up for 1000ms, stops, tilts down for 500ms, and then pans right
continuously. All sorts of actions can be done through "Programmable
Buttons" or "Macros" functions.
Have fun!
