Introduction The information in this manual covers the installation, operation, and maintenance of the Surveyor2000 Series of Fixed Camera Domes. This unit should only be installed by a qualified technician using approved materials in accordance with national, state and local wiring codes. Read this manual through completely before attempting installation.
Installation Unpacking and Inspection All Vicon equipment is tested and inspected before leaving the factory. It is the carrier’s responsibility to deliver the equipment in the same condition as it left the factory. Inspection for Visible Damage Immediately inspect the cartons upon delivery. Make a note of any visible damage on all copies of the carrier’s freight bill.

Lower Dome The dome is an assembly comprised of a 5.9 in. (148 mm) diameter acrylic shell, a color coordinated trim ring and a safety cord. Lower domes for the indoor versions have a smoked (gray tint) finish. Outdoor lower domes are clear and use four (4) screws for additional support.
Mounting the Unit Using the Provided Scribe A small metal scribe is provided to assist in marking an accurate hole size in a ceiling tile. Use it as follows. 1. Place the ceiling tile on a large flat surface, face up. 2.
Page 13
1. Cut a 7-3/8 in. (187 mm) hole in the ceiling at the desired location. Remove the tile from a dropped ceiling if necessary. Feed all necessary flexible conduit pipe or cables down through the hole. 2. Remove the camera mounting plate from the enclosure by loosening the three (3) captive screws. 3.
Figure 3A Tie Wrap Location Mounting from Above the Ceiling Use this method of installation if there is access to the space above. The ceiling material must provide suitable strength to support the weight of the Surveyor2000 with the two flippers on the enclosure. Refer to the section on Optional Independent Support for installations requiring additional support.
Figure 4 Mounting an In-Ceiling Installation with Access Above the Ceiling Optional Independent Support If it is necessary to provide independent support for the Surveyor2000 other than ceiling material, order the optional In-Ceiling Mount Model Kit, model S2000-MKT. It consists of a pre-assembled set of mounting rails and folding ring.
Indoor Pendant The indoor pendant model mounts on a Vicon mount or a 1.0-in. vertical pipe. The pipe is a standard 1.0-in. NPT type and must be oriented vertically so the Surveyor2000 can effectively hang from the pipe. The mount must provide a support of suitable strength for the housing and Surveyor2000 weight.
Indoor Pendant Installation Outdoor Pendant The outdoor pendant model mounts on a Vicon mount or a 1.0-in. vertical pipe. The outdoor version includes a sunshield, heater and weather protection. The mount must provide a support of suitable strength for the sunshield, housing and Surveyor2000 weight.
cable for termination and cut them. The approximate length of each cable should be 13 - 16 in. (330 - 406 mm). 9. On 5-50 lens models, remove the tie wrap that secures the lens to the cradle. Refer to Figure 3A. Continue with the section on Cable Connections.
Camera Power Connections Note: Vicon systems and components, like most electronic equipment, require a clean, stable power source. Voltage irregularities such as surges, drops, and interruptions can affect the operation of your equipment and, in severe cases, damage certain components. Vicon strongly recommends the use of line conditioners, voltage regulators, and uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems.
Figure 8 Camera/Lens PC Board Table 2 Camera Power Connections Pin Number Function 24 VAC/VDC 24 VAC/VDC Return Ground Camera Synchronization Camera synchronization is DIP switch selectable, line locked or internal. If there is more than one unit in a system, the cameras have to be synchronized to ensure there is no disruption of video display.

Final Installation In-Ceiling After all cabling is complete, reinstall the camera mounting plate if it was removed for no access to the ceiling from above installation. Align the holes in the mounting plate with the standoffs in the enclosure and tighten the three captive screws.
Figure 11 In-Ceiling Mount Final Installation Indoor Pendant After all the cabling is complete, push the Surveyor2000 straight up into the housing. Verify that the two (2) slots on the Surveyor2000 snap into the housing clips. Do not use excessive force. In the event that it does not snap easily, remove the Surveyor2000 and check that cabling is not preventing proper installation.

Verify that the two (2) slots on the Surveyor2000 snap into the housing clips. Do not use excessive force. In the event that it does not snap easily, remove the Surveyor2000 and check that cabling is not preventing proper installation.
Disassembly The Surveyor2000 Fixed Camera Dome can be easily disassembled by removing the camera dome from the housing (pendant models) or the camera mounting plate from the enclosure (in-ceiling versions). A safety cord is always available to safely hang the camera mounting bracket or the camera dome assembly while assembling or disassembling.
Operation When power is applied to the camera, the Surveyor2000 fixed dome views the selected scene. Maintenance The Surveyor2000 Fixed Camera Dome requires no scheduled maintenance except for the occasional cleaning of the lower dome. Care and Cleaning of Lower Dome 1.
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.
Caution: Careful selection of the proper cable is essential to obtain the best performance from this equipment. Vicon assumes no responsibility for poor performance when cables other than those recommended are installed. In all cases, coaxial cable impedance should be 75 ohms.
Technical Information ELECTRICAL Input Voltage: 24 VAC/VDC. Power Consumption: Indoor: 7 W. Outdoor: 32 W. Heat Equivalent: Indoor: 0.4 btu/min (0.1 kg-cal/min). Outdoor: 1.8 btu/min (0.46 kg-cal/min). Note: These figures represent the conversion of 100% of the electrical energy to heat. Actual percentage of heat generated will be less and will vary from product to product.
