Solution
Ensure that the AutoDome is powered, and all cables are properly connected.
Ensure that the address is properly set.
Ensure that the biphase or RS-232 is connected.
Ensure that other cameras can be controlled; if not, check the control system.
Ensure that the address is set. If an address is set to 0000, it responds to commands
for any address.
Ensure that GAIN CONTROL is set to AUTO (ON-43-ENTER).
Ensure that Iris level has not changed; if so, adjust the IRIS control on the
keyboard. To permanently adjust, use ON-11-ENTER.
Verify proper termination.
Unlock commands (OFF-90-ENTER; may require password).
NOTE: Commands automatically lock 30 min after being unlocked.
1. Try resetting factory defaults (ON-40-ENTER).
2. Position camera so the entire view is white (white wall).
3. Enter the White Balance menu (ON-30-ENTER). Move the joystick until one push
W.G. is selected. Wait 10 sec. Press IRIS to return.
4. If this does not work, restore factory defaults (SET-899-ENTER). Note that this
erases all presets and settings.
Verify that a 110 Ω resistor is across the +/– biphase code terminals at the last
dome in a daisy chain configuration.
Turn on backlight compensation (ON-20-ENTER).
Electronic AC power line noise may distort the picture and cause loss of Sync.
If the picture is distorted, try switching to Internal Crystal (OFF-42-ENTER).
If this corrects the picture problems, there may be excessive line noise on the
power supply.
