RCSN422 American Dynamics SensorNet to RS-422 Protocol Converter

The SensorNet to RS-422 Code Converter allows an ADTT16E controller to control existing RS-422 SpeedDome Series domes. The Converter receives SensorNet communication from the ADTT16E controller and converts it into RS-422 protocol for use by the domes. This provides a practical and price competitive upgrade path from older RS-422 based systems – in particular the VM1 – to the newer SensorNet-based ADTT16E controllers.
The Converter permits upgrades without having to replace existing cabling or domes. This minimizes additional installation expense, system downtime and disruptions.
Upgrading to ADTT16E provides proportional variable speed dome control and intuitive access to features like dome flip, apple peel, and repeat pattern. In addition, SensorNet domes can be added to the system, thus allowing users to take advantage of SensorNet installations.
