About the Camera Dome

The SpeedDome Ultra VII/VIIE camera dome

Figure 1) comes in black or white finish (to blend

(
into surrounding areas), mounts indoors or
outdoors (with accessory outdoor enclosure), and
can communicate with the video controller over a
SensorNet 485, RS-422, Manchester, or UTC (up­the-coax) network. The dome consists of a
mounting base, housing, and rotating eyeball
assembly.

• Eyeball. With a diameter of 120mm (4.75in),
the eyeball contains a camera, tilt motor, and
associated electronics. The eyeball enables the
camera to pan and tilt to track a target moving
in any direction even as it moves under the
dome.

Two slot covers in the eyeball facilitate access
to the camera, one of which incorporates an
opening for the camera lens. Remove both
covers to improve ventilation when the dome is
to be used outdoors.

Mounting Base

The housing and eyeball assembly connects to the
base using a twist and lock action, enabling it to be
moved easily from one location to another. The
base attaches directly to a hard or tile ceiling, or
indirectly to walls or ceilings using one of many
optional housings and mounting structures. As
shown in
standard base (without I/O board) and a base with
I/O board.

• Base without I/O board. With this base, video,

base and attached to the top of the housing and
eyeball assembly, which is then connected to
the base. A lanyard connects between the base
and the housing and eyeball assembly to
prevent cables from being pulled during
disassembly.

data, and power cables are pre-connected to an
I/O PC board. A spring-finger connector on the
board makes electrical contact with the housing
and eyeball assembly as it connects to the
base.

Power Cable

For the camera dome to operate properly, line
voltage must not go below the worst-case low line
voltage shown in the following table. Make cable
lengths as short as possible to minimize affects of
low line voltages. As shown in the table, maximum
cable length depends on the Class 2 LPS (low
voltage) ac source (such as a J-box) and the worst­case low line voltage. These lengths are for
Sensormatic composite cables, which use 18
ac power wires.

Install/Removal Tool for Base with I/O Board

The install/removal tool (Figure 10) enables you to
connect or disconnect the housing and eyeball
assembly from the base with I/O board, and to
attach/detach skirts and bubbles to a top-hat
housing, without the need for a ladder. The tool
attaches to a telescopic pole (purchased
separately). See page

18.

The supplied ADACTP01BNC Twisted Pair
Adapter (

Figure 8) is used to transmit video or
video with UTC (up-the-coax) dome control signals
over unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cables, point-to­point, up to 300m (1000ft).

The adapter mounts directly to the video source or
receiver without additional cabling and uses
Category 2-6 twisted pair wires to transmit the
video and dome control signals. The adapter does
not require power.

One adapter is supplied. If used, another adapter
must be ordered for the connection at the other
end of the cable.

Power-Up Routine

Warnings and Cautions

After power is connected to the dome, the dome
performs the following homing routine.

1. After a few seconds, the camera lens tilts up

into the housing and eyeball assembly.

2. The lens tilts downs until it looks at the floor.

3. Eyeball pans slowly.

4. Lens tilts up 90° (home position).

Once the lens is in its home position, you can then
use the controller to call up the camera and control it.

Synchronizing Domes

To prevent picture rolling when switching from
camera to camera, all domes can be synchronized
to a 50Hz or 60Hz ac source. A V-phase
adjustment at the control console enables the
dome to sync to any line phase.

Diagnostic LEDs

Please review the following warnings and cautions
before you begin installation or service.

WARNINGS

!

ALWAYS USE:

• Proper safety equipment for the location and
type of installation.

Using the Install/Removal Tool

CAUTION: Do not use this tool to connect the

dome to the standard base (without I/O board)

Used only when the dome is connected to a base
having an I/O board, the RHIRT install/removal tool
eliminates the need for a ladder during routine
service. The tool can be used to:

• Detach skirt or bubble from housing, if used.
The skirt or bubble remains attached to the
housing during service.

• Connect/Disconnect dome from base with I/O
board.

• Reattach skirt or bubble.

Telescopic Pole Required to Use Tool

The tool attaches to a telescopic pole that is similar to
the type used to clean swimming pools. The pole should
be 5 feet-5 inches to 15 feet-5 inches long and have a

1.170 -inch inside diameter to accept the 1.125-inch

diameter stem of the tool. If this pole cannot be obtained
locally, contact the following manufacturer:

Troubleshooting Indoor Domes

CAUTION: This troubleshooting section is for

indoor camera domes only! To troubleshoot
outdoor domes, see installation and service
manual shipped with the outdoor housing.

This chapter contains information on:

• Routine troubleshooting

• Detailed troubleshooting

• Disassembling the dome.

• Install/Removal tool to connect/disconnect

dome to indoor bases with I/O boards, and to
attach/detach skirts and bubbles—without a
ladder.

Routine Troubleshooting

Use this procedure if:

• Dome does not respond to commands

• Dome does not produce video

• Quality of the video is poor

• Dome has no lens control.

IMPORTANT!

1. Try routine troubleshooting first! Use this
procedure to isolate the problem without
disassembling the housing and eyeball
assembly (the base with the I/O board is
field repairable).

CAUTION: DO NOT troubleshoot if the dome
functions but does not pan or tilt (see step 2).

2. If you cannot isolate the problem, or the dome
functions but does not pan or tilt, contact your
sales representative for repair instructions.

3. If you have no choice but to repair the housing
and eyeball assembly. Follow the detailed
troubleshooting procedure, but use extreme
care.

CAUTION: Once disassembled, parts of the
housing and eyeball assembly are "extremely
fragile" and may break. Proceed using extreme
care!

Items You Will Need

You should have on hand the following items:

• Phillips-head screwdriver

• Small slotted screwdriver

• 2.5mm (0.1in) slotted screwdriver (for wire

connections). Wider blade widths can damage
connectors.

• Socket wrench with 5in extension and 5.5mm,
6mm, 8mm, and 10mm sockets

CAUTION:

• DO NOT use this procedure if the dome
functions but does not pan or tilt (see step 2 on
page

20).

• If an I/O board is used, use a ground strap
when handling the board. When shipping a
base having an I/O board, place the dust cover
over the spring finger connector to protect it.

• DO NOT over tighten connector screws on the
I/O board; they are delicate. Use a 2.5mm
(0.1in) slotted screwdriver. Wider blade widths
can damage connectors.

Procedure

Follow steps until the problem is corrected.

1. Check video on monitor (a, b, or c).

a. No video? Go to step 2.

b. Contrast or color off?

YES Contact your sales representative for

repair instructions.

NO Go to step 2.

c. Video rolls when switching between

monitors?

YES Use the video controller or switcher to

synchronize video vertical sync phases
of all domes to ac line. For specific
instructions, see installation and
service manual for the controller or
switcher.

reaching the dome (

IMPORTANT! To view the LEDs, you will need to

detach the dome from its base. To prevent damage
to the dome, hold the dome by its housing, not its
eyeball assembly.

a. If the power LED (CR33) on the I/O board

glows green, then ac power is connected.

b. Green CR2, red (CR3), and yellow (CR4)

LEDs surround the video connection and are
visible through opening. Check that the
following communication protocols are properly
wired by observing these LEDs.
