5517 Camera Tilt Kit Installation Instructions
The Camera Tilt Kit consists of the parts needed to upgrade an existing 5517 Remote Video Unit for
camera tilt capability. This allows tellers to remotely tilt the lane camera using buttons on their audio
console. An 8mm lens is also included in the kit to replace the existing 2.9mm lens. The 8mm lens gives
a much closer view of the customer for identification purposes and also eliminates much of the
surrounding background light which causes silhouette issues in some locations. Tilting the camera gives
a proper view with different vehicle heights.
Compatibility
The Camera Tilt Kit can only be installed in 5517 units version 2.0 through 3.0 and 5517-SUN units
version 1.4 through 2.1. The version number consists of the 4th & 5th digits of the unit serial number.
The serial number label is located on the inside rear bottom of the enclosure and the serial number is the
11 digit number below the bar code. You can also tell if the kit can be installed by comparing the
existing camera bracket to the bracket in the photos in Figures 29 & 31. The video matrix must also be
capable of supporting tilt control. If the video matrix has a 2 position tilt connector at the lower right of
each lane camera BNC connector then it supports tilt control. Camera tilt will not work with any 3000
series audio consoles or video matrixes. Contact tech support at 877-236-0245 with any compatibility
questions.
Installation
Follow these steps to install the tilt control after verifying compatibility.
A 2 conductor cable will be required between the video matrix and the
5517 unit for the tilt motor. 22AWG wire is sufficient for cable runs up
to approximately 200 feet.
Completely power down the 5517 unit.
Unplug the video connector and the power connector from the cable
which comes from the rear of the camera. See Figure 29.
Remove the camera assembly from the 5517 by removing the 4
bracket screws as shown in Figure 29. The assembly can then be
taken indoors if desired to complete the next several steps.
Remove the camera from the bracket by removing 2 screws.
Attach the tilt motor from the kit to the camera bracket using the screws
which are already in the motor. See Figure 30.
Slide the nylon cam from the kit onto the motor shaft so it is flush with the end of the shaft as shown
in Figure 30. Rotate the cam until the set screw is aligned with the flat side of
the shaft and then tighten. Do not over tighten to avoid stripping the
threads in the nylon cam.
Loosen the camera lens mounting screw and then remove the lens by
unscrewing it.
Remove the front faceplate from the camera by removing 4 screws. A
small jeweler's type screwdriver will be required.
Install the new camera faceplate from the kit using the same screws
removed in the previous step. It will be necessary to temporarily
remove the lens set screw during this step. Reference the photo in
Figure 31 for proper orientation of the faceplate.
Install the new lens from the kit but do not tighten the set screw at
this time.
