2.1. PREPARING FOR INSTALLATION 2.1.1. PREPARATION FOR USE 1. Basic requirement • All electrical work should comply with the latest local electrical regulation, fire precautions legislation and other relative legis- lations and regulations. • Check that whether accessories are complete or not according to packing list.
2.2. INSTALLATION GUIDE 2.2.1. WALL MOUNT NOTE If the machine is installed outside, make sure the air tightness of thermal speed dome is good and keep away from the place with high temperature or humidity. There are so many kinds of brackets, so we just introduce the process of installation of thermal speed dome.
3.1. GENERAL INFORMATION NOTE These operating instructions cover the basic operation and features of the dome. 3.1.1. SELF TEST After the intelligent speed dome was powered on, the camera pan and tilt automatically. And then it zoom from the nearest position and stop in the farthest position.
3.1.6. PROGRAM TOUR Tour is a function that camera could automatically move among some presets according to a programmed route and dwell time after calling it. • Five tour(100,101,102,103,104) is available in this product. • Each tour have 16 presets. If the presets are less than 16, the last preset number should be set 119 ,then exit.
After calling tour 1, the speed dome camera will move like this: 1 → dwell six seconds → 10 → dwell six seconds → 15 → dwell six seconds → 16 → dwell six seconds → 21 → dwell six seconds → 1 (repeat the tour)...

4.1. TROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURES 4.1.1. TROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURES Troubleshooting procedures are listed in table below. POSSIBLE PROBLEM SOLUTION REASONS 1. The end of 24V 1. Check whether thermal speed Thermal speed dome AC power supply dome connect to 24V AC power have no didn’t connect with supply.
4.2. THE GENERAL KNOWLEDGE OF RS485 4.2.1. BASIC CHARACTERISTIC OF RS485 RS485 is a half duplex communication bus whose impedance is 120Ω. Its carrying capacity is different because the different con- nection interface, IC is 32-128 actual load (including master equip- ment and slaves equipments).
FIGURE 4.2 4.2.4. QUESTION IN APPLICATIONS In the actual construction, user often adopts y-junction connection mode whose terminal impedance are connected with the furthest two equipments (as B and D in figure 4.3). But it doesn’t comply with the use requirement of RS485 industrial standard, so it would lower the reliability of control signal by causing the problems such as signal reflection and a weaker antiinterference ability in the situation that there is long distance among every equipment.
