  • Page 5: Introduction

    Read this manual through completely before attempting installation. Vicon’s Surveyor4 Series of Miniature Fixed-Position Camera Domes offers a compact indoor domed housing incorporating a fixed camera and lens combination. They are configured for in-ceiling installation. The domes include a standard or high-resolution monochrome or color camera with a choice of manual varifocal or varifocal autoiris lenses.

  • Page 7: 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.
  • Page 8: Mounting The Unit

    Mounting the Unit The Surveyor4 is intended for in-ceiling installation. It can be installed in either a dropped ceiling or a hard ceiling. Installation is done with a 4 x 4 electrical box, which is included. All mounting hardware is provided. The ceiling material must provide suitable strength to support the weight of the Surveyor4 dome (3.0 lb, 1.4 kg).
  • Page 9 The power supply for the camera must be 24 VAC. Refer to Figure 5. 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.

    11. Connect the safety cord (lanyard) on the lower dome to one of the holes provided in the enclosure with the screw that is provided. Power Supplies Vicon recommends several power supplies, depending on the needs of the installation. Refer to the table below. For other multichannel power supplies, contact Altronix Corporation at 888-258-7669. Model Number...

  • Page 12: Camera Synchronization

    Figure 5 Power Connections Camera Synchronization If there is more than one unit in a system, the cameras have to be synchronized to ensure there is no roll of video. If the camera will be used in a line lock video application (color camera only), the camera interface board is already set in line lock mode by default.
  • Page 13: Camera/Lens Adjustments

    Camera/Lens Adjustments After all cabling is complete, the camera and lens can be adjusted. DIP Switch Settings On color cameras, line lock and autoiris control are DIP switch selectable. For monochrome cameras, only autoiris control is available. AI setting is for external autoiris and EE setting is for internal autoiris. Refer to Figure 6 for the location and setting of the switches.
  • Page 14: Final Installation

    Camera/Lens Positioning The camera position can be adjusted in four axes, horizontally (pan), vertically (tilt), vertical height of the camera/lens assembly in the enclosure and rotation about the lens axis (roll). Rotate the camera/lens assembly on the camera mounting (L) bracket to adjust the pan position; swivel the assembly for tilt position. The vertical height of the camera/lens assembly can be adjusted by loosening the lock nut, changing the vertical position of the camera mounting bracket within the slot in the mounting bracket and retightening the nut.
  • Page 15: Operation

    Operation When power is applied to the camera, the Surveyor4 dome views the selected scene. Maintenance The Surveyor4 Miniature Fixed-Position Camera Dome requires no scheduled maintenance except for the occasional cleaning of the lower dome. Care and Cleaning of Lower Dome The inside surface of the smoked (gray-tinted) dome is easily scratched.

  • Page 17: Reference

    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.
  • Page 18 Twisted-Pair Cable 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. Materials Use a pure copper stranded or solid conductor with or without a tin plating to obtain a low DC resistance. Do not use cable with either steel or aluminum stranded conductor because these do not transfer signals effecti vely for long distances.
