VPort 254 User’s Manual Introduction

10/100 Mbps Ethernet port or 100 Mbps fiber optic Ethernet port
The VPort 254 series of video encoders come in three models: the VPort 254 has 1 RJ45 10/100M
Ethernet port (LEDs on the left corners of the port indicate 1 0M or 1 00M), the VPort 254-S-SC
has a single mode fiber optic Ethernet port, and the VPort 254-M-SC has one multi mode fiber
optic Ethernet port. Choose the model that is most appropriate for your own application.
RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 PTZ port
The VPort 254 has 1 PTZ port for PTZ control. This PTZ port is an RS-232/RS-422/485 serial port
with 5 pin terminal block connector. The pin assignments are as follows:
PIN RS-422/485 RS-232
1 GND

To enable PTZ control, users should configure the PTZ control protocol in the web console.
NOTE
The PTZ control protocol is not standardized. To use a particular PTZ control protocol, the video
encoder must support the driver for that protocol. Currently, the VPort 351 supports PTZ control
protocol drivers for:
1. Pelco D
2. Pelco P
3. Dynacolor DynaDome
In addition, there is an item named “Transparent PTZ Control” in the camera driver list, which is
used to transmit the PTZ control signal through the TCP/IP network to the VPort D351 video
decoder or PC (additional Real COM driver required), and the PTZ control panel or keyboard
can directly control the PTZ camera or device. In this way, there is no need for a PTZ camera
driver and better than that, you are not limited because you don’t have a particular protocol .
In addition, to using a protocol that is not on the list, you will need to contact the manufacturer
of the camera to get the PTZ control commands, and then use the VPort 254’s custom camera
function to program the PTZ control.
NOTE
The VPort 254 comes with a PTZ driver upload function for implementing new PTZ drivers.
Please contact a Moxa sales representative if you need assistance from Moxa’s R&D department
to create a new PTZ driver.
