1 Getting Started
Install and wire the AutoDome according to the VG5 AutoDome Installation Manual. A typical
system includes a keyboard, matrix switcher, monitor, and appropriate wiring connections.
Please refer to the individual product manuals for complete installation and setup instructions
for each of the system components.
1.1 Powering On
When you turn the AutoDome power on there is a ten (10) second pause before the dome
starts its homing phase. During the homing phase the camera pans left and right and tilts up
and down. It also adjusts the lens focus. The entire homing phase lasts approximately 40
seconds and ends with a splash screen.

1.2 Establishing AutoDome Control
The most common ways to interface with the AutoDome are:
– Using a keyboard and on-screen display (OSD) menus. This method is the most common
and is covered in this manual.
– Using the AutoDome Configuration Tool software running on a PC with Bilinx or the RS-
232/485 communication protocol. Refer to the CTFID User Manual for instructions.
– Using a PC-based graphical user interface (GUI) such as the Bosch DiBos 8 software.
Refer to the DiBos 8 User Guide for instructions.

1.3 Setting the Camera Address
Once the AutoDome power is turned on and homing is complete, you must set the camera
address. You may also want to assign a password and customize some of the AutoDome
default settings.
NOTICE! You do not need to set a camera address if using Bilinx or Ethernet communication.
See the VG5 AutoDome Installation Manual to configure an AutoDome for Bilinx or Ethernet
operation.
1.3.1 FastAddress
FastAddress is an AutoDome feature that allows you to set or change a camera address using
the keyboard and on-screen menus.
There are three (3) FastAddress commands:
– ON-999-ENTER: Displays and programs all cameras without an address in the system.
NOTICE! If a keyboard is set to a camera number that already has an address, that camera
also responds to this command.
– ON-998-ENTER: Displays and programs all cameras with or without an address in the
system.
– ON-997-ENTER: Displays the current address status of all cameras in the system
simultaneously.
To set an address for a camera without an address:
1. Select the camera number you want to FastAddress. The system displays the camera
number on the keyboard and the image on the corresponding monitor.
2. Press #-ENTER (where # is the camera number without an address).
3. Press ON-999-ENTER to invoke an on-screen display of cameras on the system without
an address.
4. Follow the on-screen instructions. You receive an on-screen confirmation when the
FastAddress is complete.
To change or clear an address for a camera with an address:
1. Select the camera number you want to FastAddress. The system displays the camera
number on the keyboard and the image on the corresponding monitor.
2. Press #-ENTER (where # is the camera number with an address).
3. Press ON-998-ENTER to invoke an on-screen display of all cameras on the system, with or
without an address.
4. Follow the on screen instructions. You receive an on-screen confirmation when the
FastAddress is complete.
NOTICE!
FastAddress is stored in nonvolatile memory and does not change if the power is turned off or
if the default settings are restored.
