1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 FEATURES The Speed Dome Camera features a high resolution 1/4” Interline Transfer CCD imager for enhanced lowlight sensitivity. User friendly, on-screen pull-down menus and short- cuts make it easy to setup and program functions. System information aides troubleshooting by displaying the hardware and software version of the camera’s firmware version, baud rate, and protocol.
2. INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION 2.1 TYPICAL SYSTEM CONFIGURATION Additional Speed Dome joystick controllers and a variety of external switching devices such as multiplexers (MUXes) and Digital Video Recorders (DVRs) may be incorporated to accommodate the needs from a small to a large surveillance/security system. Figure 1 illustrates sample installation.

The dome camera must be installed by qualified service personnel. Before installing the dome camera system, this instruction manual must be read thoroughly and understood fully. Dome cameras must be set up properly before starting the installation. This involves properly setting configuration switches. Figure 6 shows the location of these switches.
2.6 PRINCIPLE OF TERMINATION Every device that is connected at the end of the communication data line must be terminated by either the DIP switch setting or an appropriate device such as a termination jumper to prevent potential control signal errors. See Figure 6 for termination switch settings and Figure 7 for examples of devices requiring termination.

2.7 MINI PTZ ADDRESS (ID) Each dome camera must have a unique address (ID). Identical IDs on the same line may damage the control circuit caused by an electrical short. When installing multiple dome cameras or a DVR, it is recommended that the dome camera ID’s be identical to the camera port of the DVR.
2.8 SETTING PROTOCOLS A Mini PTZ camera is capable of negotiating with multiple protocols if the communication speed is matched (same baud rate i.e., 9600 bps). See Figure 10 for the appropriate protocol switch settings. Note: Consult service personnel if a dome camera is installed with a device other than a recommended Speed Dome Controller.

GLOSSARY ALARM ACTIONS The assigned responses of the dome camera when there is input status change. The dome may call Presets for each of the eight inputs. The dome reports the alarm states to the Keyboard controller for processing. AREA TITLE It is the name of the horizontal sector from a certain start point to end point of the selected dome.
Page 47
INPUT DEVICES External devices that provide information about the condition of system components that connect to the inputs on the dome camera. Typical input devices include door contacts, motion detectors and smoke detectors. IR MODE A feature of the camera that permits manual or automatic switching between color and IR (black-and-white) operation.
