Backward compatibility with CyberDome I housings

The CyberDome II PTZ is compatible with CyberDome I housings, but there are some exceptions. Although
the onscreen display (OSD) interface, including menus, will show the CyberDome II design, not all of the
CyberDome II features are supported on CyberDome I housings. The following features are not available:
• Site-tied memory
• Internal alarms
• Internal relays
• Internal wiring terminal blocks
• Advanced heater and fan system
• Lift and gain functionality.
• Up-the-coax (UTC) protocol support
Also, if you install a CyberDome II PTZ in an older CyberDome I housing, you must install a fan assembly on
the tilt arm of the PTZ. (See
CyberDome I PTZ, or call Customer Service (see
10556789A).

Various mounting and housing styles

There are three basic mounting styles: pendant, wall, and flush. A pendant-mount lowers a dome from a
ceiling, a wall-mount extends a dome from a wall, and a flush-mount raises a dome's dome even with a ceiling.
See Figure 5. This document provides the instructions for all mounting styles.
Figure 5. Basic mounting styles
There are four basic housing styles: flush-mount, plastic pendant-mount, cast aluminum pendant-mount, and
heavy-duty (Figure 6). Installation is generally the same for all housing styles. There are some differences,
such as how the dome rings attach to the housings (Figure 27 on page 33). Where differences exist, the
instructions will specify.
