About the Product

The SensorRail IIIE system enables a SpeedDome
Ultra dome camera to transmit video as it moves
along a rail to the ideal surveillance position.
The system consists of:
• 2.5m (8.2ft) rail sections (number determined by the
total length of the rail) with installation hardware
• A light-reducing section at each end of the rail
• Ceiling suspension assembly, which includes M8
threaded rods, ceiling attachment hardware (not
supplied), and mounting stirrups
• Copper tracks
• Camera trolley equipped with dome camera, RF
transmit antenna, and motor
• PowerRail module that supplies dc power to the
camera trolley, converts RS-422 data to RS-232 data
used by the trolley, and receives the video signal
from the dome camera
• Trolley stop and retrieval tool
•
RF receive antenna.
