Installation Manual

Introduction

The installation of domes has been made much easier with many of Legend's innovations. All coaxial and UTP
connections are built into the housing, and programming and addressing are site-tied to the housing. Site-tied
memory allows you to replace cameras or move them between housings without having to reprogram them for
each new site, because the camera will operate using the housing memory. As you install the first dome, you
will find many other enhancements that make installation easier and quicker.
The general steps for installing your dome include:
preparing the mounting surface and installing the mount (if used) and housing;
preparing the cables and wiring the housing;
addressing the camera site, setting the protocol, and setting the termination;
installing the camera assembly; and
installing the bubble.

Product description

Legend is the next generation PTZ dome camera that maintains and enhances many of the features of
CyberDome that you have come to rely on. The Legend protocol is backward compatible, so you can replace
older domes in an existing analog system with Legend domes. The hardware, however, is not backward
compatible. Other enhancements that relate to performance and operation include replacing gears and belts
with SilkTrak™ direct-drive technology for smoother camera travel, replacing the text-based on-screen display
(OSD) programming interface with an easy-to-use graphical programming interface, and providing passcode
protection that prevents unauthorized personnel from changing programming settings while still allowing
operator access. The dome also now offers an Ethernet connection to flash software upgrades over a standard
IP network using a standard web browser. For additional details, refer to the data sheet and the user manual,
which provides the programming instructions for all of the dome's features.

Product contents

The Legend system consists of the following:
1 housing
4 connectors (one 2-pin for power, one 4-pin for data, one blue 12-pin for six alarms, and one green
12-pin for two alarms, two relays, UTP video, and small screw driver)
2 manuals (installation and user, which covers programming and operation)
1 PTZ camera assembly
1 bubble (mirror bubbles are shipped with cotton gloves for special handling)
1 mount (wall-mount and flush-mount versions only)
You may receive the package contents in one large carton containing three boxes (four with wall-mount
versions), or if shipped individually, you may receive three (or four) separate boxes. One box will contain the
housing, connectors, and manuals. The PTZ assembly, bubble, and mount (for wall-mount versions) are each
shipped in separate boxes.
Inspect the package and contents for visible damage. If any components are damaged or missing, do not use the
unit; contact the supplier immediately. If you need to return the unit, you must ship it in the original box.
