Hi!
Im currently analyzing Dahua's RS485 protocol that is used to interconnect VTO/VTH's and expansions.
My goal is, to add a fingerprint from Dahua's security products (ASR1102A) and maybe other stuff.

Is there any dahua RS485 protocol (DH-SD?) description available?

No, unfortunately I did not find any useful information.
So I ended up in buying a VTO2000A-F. I tried to analyze the RS485 protocol with it, but believe me, it is not just a simple serial connection.
Tons of messages are transmitted in both directions even in idle state, so I gave up in decoding them. I don't even know the used baudrate...

What do you wanna achieve? Maybe I can help you in another way.

In the new V4 firmware images, there are now options to setup RS485 baud rates and choose protocols. This opens at least the possibility to analyze RS485 bus.
