Configuration and Operation Chapter 3 Configuration and Operation This chapter will describe how to wire, configure and operate the Surveyor HD Pressurized Network Dome. The chapter consists of the following topics: Topic Page Typical Relay and Alarm Connections Configuring and Operating the Pressurized Surveyor HD Network Dome Surveyor HD Pressurized Network Dome XX214-60...
Chapter 3 Configuration and Operation Typical Relay and Alarm Connections Alarm input and relay output type signals are also carried on individually- shielded twisted-pair cable sets. The signals are defined in the following descriptions. Note The twisted-pair cable should have a wire gauge (AWG) of 24-16 and a category type of 2, 3, 4, 5 or better.
Page 38
Configuration and Operation The “active” state can be programmed through the Surveyor HD web browser interface. These signals are connected to terminal block TB1. Alarm signals can be programmed for their status (enabled/disabled), active level definition (high/low), action/reset function (none, preset, aux on, aux off or tour), acknowledgment mode (automatic, momentary or manual) and report status (yes/no).

The Pressurized Surveyor HD Camera Dome operates on an Onvif compliant platform that allows it to work with any Onvif compliant Video Management System (VMS), including Vicon’s ViconNet. Refer to the documentation for those operating systems to setup the Surveyor HD. After the camera dome is configured according to the requirements for the specific video management system, it is controlled through the Web Browser.
Operation, Maintenance and Reference Maintenance The Pressurized Surveyor HD requires no scheduled maintenance; however, the lower domes require occasional cleaning. All domes require careful handling and occasional cleaning. Care and Cleaning of Smoked and Clear Acrylic Domes 1. Always handle the lower dome by the flange and avoid touching the inside surface.
Shipping Instructions Use the following procedure when returning a unit to the factory: 1. Call or write Vicon for a Return Authorization (R.A.) at one of the locations listed below. Record the name of the Vicon employee who issued the R.A.
Network Cable Caution Careful selection of proper cable is essential to obtain the best performance. Vicon assumes no responsibility for poor performance when cables other than the recommended types, or equivalent, are used. Materials Use pure copper stranded conductors to obtain a low DC resistance. The preferred insulation and cable jacket is Polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
