About the Camera Dome

The DeltaDome II programmable surveillance
camera (Figure 1) mounts indoors or outdoors,
and can communicate with the video controller
over a SensorNet 485, RS422, or Manchester
network. The dome consists of a mounting base,
and a housing and rotating eyeball assembly.
Mounting Base
The housing and eyeball assembly connects to the
base using a twist and lock action, which enables
the dome to be easily moved from one location to
another. The base attaches directly to a hard or tile
ceiling, or indirectly to walls or ceilings using one of
many optional housings and mounting structures.
As shown in Figure 2, two base types are offered:
an ADUPTB standard base and an ADIOB base
with I/O board.
ADPTB Base. With this base, video, data, and
power cables are inserted through the base and
attached to the top of the housing and eyeball
assembly, which is then connected to the base.
A lanyard connects between the base and the
housing and eyeball assembly to prevent cables
from being pulled during disassembly.
ADIOB Base. With this base, video, data, and
power cables are pre-connected to an I/O PC
board. A spring-finger connector on the board
makes electrical contact with the housing and
eyeball assembly as it connects to the base.

INSTALLATION AND SERVICE GUIDE
Housing and Eyeball Assembly
The housing and eyeball assembly consists
of the following:
Housing. The housing contains the dome's
power supply, pan motor, and electronics used
to operate the eyeball. The housing provides
one alarm input and one alarm output using the
ADPTB base, or four alarm inputs and four
alarm outputs using the ADIOB base.
Eyeball. Gloss black and 120mm (4.75") in
diameter, the eyeball contains a camera, tilt
motor, and associated electronics. The eyeball
enables the camera to pan and tilt to track a
target moving in any direction even as it moves
under the dome.
Two slot covers in the eyeball facilitate access
to the camera, one of which incorporates a
camouflaged lens. Remove both covers to
improve ventilation when the dome is to be
used outdoors.
As shown in Table 1, the housing and eyeball
assembly can be ordered:
With no base for existing indoor installations or
for mounting outdoors.
With a ADPTB standard base or ADIOB base
with I/O board for new indoor installations.
With one of four CCD cameras
Each camera has 22X optical zoom with cont-
inuous auto focus and back light compensation.
Electronic zoom provides selectable
magnification up to 176X.
