About PTZ

The term “PTZ” means Pan-Tilt-Zoom, and describes a camera that can rotate, elevate and zoom in

on a subject. Some cameras, such as the QD6505P, only feature the pan and tilt functions, making

them Pan-Tilt cameras. Throughout this manual we will refer to the PTZ operations. The basic

operations are identical regardless of whether your camera has the zoom feature.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

You will need:

1. A surge protector

We STRONGLY recommend that you use one that has the following speciﬁcations:

• UL-1449 Rated

• Clamping voltage of 330 or lower

• Joule rating of at least 400

• Response time of 10 nanoseconds or less

2. A small, Phillips-head screw driver to secure the control wires from the camera into the RS485

module on the Control Module.

INTRODUCTION

This quick-start guide is written for the QD6531Z and QD6505P speed dome cameras with remote

control and was accurate at the time it was completed. However, because of our ongoing effort to

constantly improve our products, additional features and functions may have been added since that

time. We encourage you to visit our website at www.Q-See.com to check for the latest ﬁrmware

updates and product announcements.

This guide is intended to assist you in adding the remote control function to your camera. Complete

instructions on setting up your PTZ camera itself are included in the accompanying user manual for

your camera.

Throughout the manual we have highlighted warnings and other important information that will assist

you in operating your new system in a safe and trouble-free manner. Please take the time to read and

follow all instructions and pay attention to alerts as shown below:

NOTE! Text in blue boxes with the Information icon offer additional

guidance and explanations about how to make the most out of your system.

IMPORTANT! Red boxes with this icon indicate warnings. To prevent

possible injury or damage to the product, read all warnings before use.

NOTE! If you have your DVR set to record when motion is detected, the movement

of the PTZ camera will trigger recording as well as any alerts that you have set up,

creating the potential for multiple false alarms. Depending upon your situation and

speciﬁc needs, you should disable alarms, e-mail alerts and other notiﬁcations relating to motion

detection for the speciﬁc channel that your PTZ camera is connected to. You may also wish to

change the recording schedule, speed and/or quality for this channel to save disk space, if needed.

The controller for your camera consists of two parts; the Remote Control, and the Control Module

which contains the infrared receiver as well as a digital readout. The control wires from your camera

connect to ports on the back of the module.

1.1 CONTROL MODULE

The Control Module receives the signals from the Remote Control and transmits control instructions to

the camera through the wires connected to the RS485 block at the back of the module. The Control

Module does not have any control over the video signal sent from the camera as that is delivered

directly to the DVR or monitor. All settings are actually stored in the camera itself, the Control Module

serves to communicate your instructions to your camera.
