Most video detection systems require a clean and stable video signal to function correctly. In contrast to other CCTV type cameras, the Vantage camera delivers a constant and regulated video signal that is easily processed by the Vantage video detection systems.

Page 7: Camera Installation
Camera User Guide 2. Camera Installation Camera Mounting The physical camera mounting is done using a camera bracket that is banded to the luminaire arm or can be mounted on the mast arm using a suitable extension bracket. One possible camera mounting location is up on the luminaire arm centered over the field of view, however, it is not always possible to use this mounting. - Page 8 Camera User Guide Approximately 12” (30cm) from the luminaire head Camera height should be at least 25’ (8m) above the roadway Mast Arm Mounting with Pelco Bracket If the luminaire arm is too short to center the camera over the field of view, especially on wide ...

Strip Belden Coaxial Cable to length using Ideal Industries 45-521 coax stripping tool (Brown Cartridge). A = .328 B = .109in Strip .250in of inner conductor for insertion into the video connector. Feed cable through small cord grip and into video connector and tighten connector.
- Page 12 Camera User Guide Cabinet Connections Power Connection (Power Surge Panel) In the controller cabinet, AC power will need to be provided to each of the Vantage cameras. It is best to power the cameras from auxiliary breakers, to make sure that any damage to the camera power cables does not affect intersection cabinet power or controller operation.
- Page 13 If you have more than four cameras, you can double up (insert two wires) in two of the circuit breakers and two of the other (AC-) Neutral and Chassis Ground terminal blocks. Each circuit breaker is rated at two amps and a typical Iteris camera draws about 1/2 amp so this should not create any problems.
- Page 14 Camera User Guide Insert the male contact pin so that it butts up against the dielectric, crimp it in place using an Ideal Industries 30-483 coax crimping tool. Insert the connector body assembly over the dielectric and shielding and snap it into place. Make sure the center pin is completely seated in the connector body.
- Page 15 The specification sheet for the surge protection device is available in the "Technical Information" section of this manual. All surge protection must be approved by Iteris for use with the Vantage video detection systems. Failure to install surge protection, or using non-approved surge protection devices, will void the Vantage equipment warranties.

- Page 17 Camera User Guide Examples of Poor FOVs Four Lane Minimum Width Ideally, the camera should be zoomed in until a minimum of 4 lanes are visible, the horizon should not be included as a part of the field of view. The zones should be drawn within the lane lines and should be the size of a medium vehicle.
- Page 18 Camera User Guide Very Poor Mounting - Side Shoot, Camera Not Centered Proper Mounting Height – The camera should be mounted at approximately 30 feet for optimal system performance. For lower mountings, like a mast arm mount, a suitable camera extension bracket should be used to increase the camera mounting height to a more workable elevation.
- Page 19 Camera User Guide Maintain a Proper Camera Angle – The physical camera adjustments are done by adjusting the camera bracket mounting bolts to set the mechanical camera pan and tilt after the camera bracket has been mounted to the arm or pole. The camera should always be tilted slightly downward and should never be flat or beyond horizontal.
- Page 20 Camera User Guide The Camera Body Should Be Rotated Acceptable Camera Alignment Proper Camera Focus Adjustment – When you are sure that you can obtain the desired FOV, you will need to focus the camera using the LAM. Proper focus is crucial for optimal Vantage system detection performance. A camera that is out of focus can significantly reduce the Vantage systems ability to perform;...
