Connection in outdoor applications
Safety precautions:
Coax grounding: If an outside cable system is connected to the unit,
ensure that the system is grounded.
U.S.A. models only - Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/
NFPA No.70, provides information regarding proper grounding of the
mount and supporting structure, grounding of the coax to a discharge unit,
size of grounding conductors, location of discharge unit, connection to
ground electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.
Power lines:
overhead power lines, electrical lights, or power circuits, or where it may
contact such power lines or circuits. When installing an outdoor system,
extreme care should be taken to keep from touching power lines or circuits,
as this contact may be fatal. U.S.A. models only - refer to the National
Electrical Code Article 820 regarding installation of CATV systems.
24 VAC power source:
source, this power source must comply with EN60950. When the unit is
intended to operate at 24 VAC, normal input voltage is between 12 VAC and
28 VAC. Voltage applied to the unit's power input should not exceed 28 VAC.
User supplied wiring, from 24 VAC supply to unit, must be in compliance
with electrical codes (Class 2 power levels). Do not ground the 24 VAC supply
at the terminals or at the unit's power supply terminals.
Connection: The unit has
connection terminals on flying
leads. In wet or outdoor
installations make use of the
VDA-455SMB accessory or use a
field wiring box with Nema3 or
IP55 protection level or better.
Make the connections inside the
water tight compartment. After
connections are made ensure that
the watertight compartment is
tightly closed and cables and
conduits are properly sealed to
prevent ingress of water.
An outdoor system should not be located in the vicinity of

Connection and set-up
Power and video connections
The wiring harness has a BNC connector to accept the video coax cable
(with male BNC connector) and two stripped low voltage power wires for
connection to a power connector. (A UTP adapter is available as an
accessory to allow a UTP video cable to be connected to the BNC
connector.)
Caution
Before proceeding, be sure to disconnect the power from the
cable to be installed into the unit. Be sure that the unit is of the
proper voltage type for the line power being used.
The easiest way to connect the low voltage power lines and the video
connection is as follows:
• Bring the building connections through the surface wire hole so that
they hang clear.
• Partially insert two screws into the pre-drilled holes (or adapter plate).
• Using the keyholes, hang the mounting base on one screw temporarily
and tilt the base slightly to gain access to the cable connections.
• Connect the BNC connector of the camera module to the video coax
cable.
• Connect the stripped power wires to the power supply connector.
Note
For a DC supply the polarity is not important. For an AC supply try to
maintain a consistent wiring polarity in multiple camera systems to help
avoid rolling when switching.
• In damp environments ensure that the connections are sealed. (The
surface mounting box has a sealed compartment for this.)
• Push the connections back through the surface wire hole.
• Secure the mounting base to the surface with three screws.

Camera positioning
The physical default position of the camera is that the top of the image
corresponds to the indication TOP.
Caution
The CCD image sensors are highly sensitive and require special
care for proper performance and extended lifetime. Do not expose
them to direct sunlight or bright spotlights in operating and nonoperating conditions. Avoid bright lights in the field of view of the
camera.
The camera module position can be adjusted along three axes. When
adjusting the camera position ensure that the picture display on the
monitor is level. Set the camera to the desired position by performing the
following steps:
• For horizontal adjustment (pan), rotate the camera module in the base.
Do not rotate more than 360°.
• For vertical adjustment (tilt), loosen thumbscrews, position camera,
then gently tighten thumbscrews to secure camera.
• To obtain a horizontal horizon (for tilted ceilings or sidewall
mounting), rotate the base of the lens as necessary to align the picture
shown on the monitor. Do not rotate more than 340°.
Focal length and focus
Before adjusting, place the adjustment cap on the lens to ensure that the
image sharpnes is the same as when the dome is in place.
• To set the field of view of the varifocal lens, loosen the focal length
screw and turn the mechanism until the required view is displayed on
the monitor. (Image goes out of focus.)
• Focus the image on the monitor by loosening the focus screw and
turning the mechanism until the image is in focus.
• Readjust the focal length if necessary.
• Repeat these two adjustments until the desired view is in focus.
• Tighten both screws.
Remove the adjustment cap from the lens and the monitoring jack.

Day/Night switching
The FlexiDomeDN Day/Night Camera is equipped with a motorized IR
filter. The IR filter can be removed in low-light or IR illuminated
applications.
If Auto switching mode is selected, the camera automatically switches the
filter depending on the observed light level. The switching level is
programmable. In Auto switching mode the camera prioritizes motion (the
camera gives sharp images without motion blur as long as the light level
permits) or color (the camera gives color pictures as long as the light level
permits). The camera recognizes IR illuminated scenes to prevent
unwanted switching to color mode.
There are two different methods of switching:
• via Bilinx™ communication, or
• automatically, based on the observed light levels.

Camera Control Communication
This camera is equipped with a coaxial communications transceiver. In
combination with VP-CFGSFT, the camera can be adjusted from the headend side of the coaxial cable. All menus can be accessed remotely giving
full control of the camera. With this communication it is also possible to
disable the local keys on the camera.
To avoid loss of communication on an installed camera, the
COMMUNICATION ON/OFF selection is NOT available while using
remote control. This function can only be accessed with the camera
buttons.
