Page 21: Adjusting The Zoom Stop Settings
Adjusting the Zoom Stop Settings The SpeedDome Ultra VII includes a 22X optical zoom camera with 11X digital zoom capability. The maximum possible zoom is 242X. Zoom stop settings define how the zoom function is partitioned. Depending on the current zoom level, the camera will either stop at the first zoom stop setting or continue to the maximum zoom setting. -
Page 22: Configuring The Line Lock Setting
Configuring the Line Lock Setting Use the Line Lock setting to prevent vertical rolling or adjust the appearance of overlay text on color monitors. If you experience problems with vertical video rolling when switching multiple cameras to a single monitor, enabling the Line Lock setting phase locks the video with the AC power line. All cameras connected to the same power supply will be synchronized. -
Page 23: Configuring The Freeze Frame Setting
Configuring the Freeze Frame Setting If you need to maintain a static image when calling automatic functions, such as presets or patterns, use the Freeze Frame setting. This prevents the display of the dome movement and lens adjustments from being displayed on-screen while the preset or pattern is being sought. When the Freeze Frame setting is enabled, the scene currently displayed on the monitor will be preserved (frozen) on-screen until the pattern or preset is ready for display. -
Page 24: Configuring Auto Iris/Auto Focus Resume Settings
Changing the Freeze Frame Setting 1. Select Pan/Tilt/Zoom/Sync Opts from the Dome Configuration Menu. 2. Move the highlight bar to Freeze Frame. Change the setting. • Select On to enable Freeze Frame. This freezes the current scene when presets or patterns are selected. -

Page 35: Configuring Alarm Actions
Configuring Alarm Actions I M P O R T A N T When operating on Manchester networks, the dome can be programmed to respond to any of the four available alarm inputs. However, the dome cannot transmit alarm input states to the host controller. If transmitting the alarm state to the host controller is required, the alarm device must be wired directly to the host controller. - Page 36 Setting Alarm Actions I M P O R T A N T Some controllers allow the alarm actions for domes to be specified at the controller. See the appendixes for information about which controllers support this function. Do not use both the dome configuration utility and the controller to assign the alarm actions for the same input.
-
Page 37: Configuring Normal Input States For Alarms

When the dome is initially installed, “North” defaults to a pre-defined position (0°... -
Page 41: Programming Area Boundaries
Programming Area Boundaries If the dome is installed in a location where you can see numerous departments or other identifiable objects, you might want to consider programming area boundaries. Areas are programmed start- and end-points of a camera's field of view. Each area is a part of a circular viewing area that extends around the dome. - Page 42 Note: for assigning new names appear in Chapter 5. To program areas, select Area Boundaries from the Alarms/Areas/Home/Presets/PZ screen. The following screen appears: If no boundary is set, pressing Focus quits without making any changes.

- Page 45 The circled arrows represent the target area on the screen for creating the Privacy Zone. Normally, this target area remains in the center of the screen. Using the Pan/Tilt control moves the target area by panning or tilting the dome. If the dome reaches its maximum tilt position, the Privacy Zone may still be established in the upper part of the display.
- Page 46 Removing or Hiding Privacy Zones If you made an error during programming or no longer require Privacy Zones, individual zones or all Privacy Zones may be deleted. To temporarily remove the Privacy Zones, you may disable their appearance by changing the Hide All Zones setting to Yes. To delete individual Privacy Zones, you must adjust the position of the arrows to the area of the screen where the zone is recognized by the firmware.
- Page 47 Deleting Specific Privacy Zones To delete individual Privacy Zones, use the following procedure. To delete all Privacy Zones, see Deleting All Privacy Zones on page 4–15. 1. Select Alarms/Areas/Home/Presets/PZ from the Dome Configuration Menu. 2. Select Privacy Zones. The Program Privacy Zones screen displays. 3.
