function. Three protocol packs are available: Forward vision (FV)/ Bosch, FV/Pelco and FV/
VCL.
All MIC 500 Series cameras are supplied set to address 1 and initially loaded with the FV /
Bosch protocol pack. The available protocol packs are provided on the CD and can be loaded

Series camera power supply (HD4 or HD5) to a PC using either the MIC-USB485CVTR, an
RS485 to USB signal converter, or for older PCs with a serial port, a suitable RS232 to RS485
