Camera Care
CAUTION
In order to avoid damaging your camera, note the following points:
• Only use the camera in a clean, dry, dust-free environment.
• Remove all packaging inserts and the protective lm from the dome cover before
using the camera.
• Do not touch the image surface of the sensor. If the sensor is accidentally touched,
only clean it using isopropanol.
• Do not expose the camera sensor to very bright light over a long period of time as
this may cause damage to the CCD sensor. The camera and lens set-up must be
correct to avoid possible damage due to long term exposure to bright light. A lens
with an automatic iris is recommended under these conditions.
The ICE dome camera can be mounted in two ways: ceiling mount for installation into a tile ceiling;
surface mount for installation directly to a hard surface or mounting structure.
Parts Supplied
• 2 x Plastic anchors
• 2 x 80 mm (3”) screws
Parts Not Supplied
• Optional video service lead (part number DM/ICED-SERV)
Surface Mount Ceiling Mount
Installing your camera
The ICE xed dome camera is available in two versions: the ceiling mount version for installation
into a ceiling tile of up to 1.5” (38 mm) thickness; and the surface mount version for installation
directly onto a hard surface or mounting structure.
1 Follow the instructions in the Ceiling Mount Models or Surface Mount Models
section below to mount the camera.
2 Optionally attach a local monitor to the test point using an ICED SERV service
connector (available separately) to assist in setting up the camera.
3 Set the video mode to PAL or NTSC as follows:
During normal camera operation, hold down button B for approximately 0.5
seconds to switch between PAL and NTSC.
4 Aim the camera at the centre of the required scene.
The camera assembly is adjustable in all three axes. Rotate the inner wheel to
adjust the orientation of the picture.
5 Adjust the eld of view and focus.
Use the levers on the lens to adjust the camera’s eld of view, and focus.
6 Adjust the camera settings for your application. The default camera settings are
suitable for use in most environments.
Optionally, adjust the camera for different lighting conditions and to cater for
movement in the scene. The camera can also be adjusted for image stability during
video switching.
7 Reattach the shim, camera liner and dome cover.

Surface Mount Installation
Refer to the Quickstart section for more information.
1 To remove the dome cover, rotate it counter-clockwise and gently pull it away from
the camera body. The inner liner can now be removed.
2 Using the template supplied at the rear of this manual, mark and drill the holes
required for xing. Using the two 80 mm mounting screws, attach the dome camera
to the surface as shown. Do not over tighten the xing screws. The screws can
be used on their own if the surface is of a suitable material (e.g. wood), but plastic
anchors must be used where the surface is of brick or masonry construction. Run
the power and video cables to the camera. Cables may be fed through the ceiling
or through the cutout in the side of the camera shroud. Remove the cutout with a
sharp knife and use a round le to smooth the edges if necessary.
3 Connect the video to either the BNC at the end of the ying lead or directly to the
BNC. Use only one of the BNC connectors to connect video.
4 Connect the power to the power terminals. These cameras are designed to operate
from a 12V DC or 24V AC power supply. Connections and polarity are indicated
next to the terminals. The power supply must be a UL Listed, Class 2 isolated type.
Warning: This camera is a Class 2 device and therefore does not have an earth connection in the
power cord.
Recess Mount Installation
Refer to the Quickstart section for more information.
1 To recess mount the camera, the shroud must be removed. Gently squeeze
together opposite sides of the shroud as shown and lift it away from the camera
body.
2 Using the template supplied at the rear of this manual, mark and cut a 4” (100 mm)
diameter hole. A suitably sized hole saw can also be used.
To prepare for installation use a suitable screwdriver to loosen the three xing clamps
sufciently to accommodate the thickness of the tile or ceiling.
3 Connect the video to either the BNC at the end of the ying lead or directly to the
BNC. Use only one of the BNC connectors to connect video.
Connect the power to the power terminals. These cameras are designed to operate from a
12V DC or 24V AC power supply. Connections and polarity are indicated next to
the terminals. The power supply must be a UL Listed, Class 2 isolated type.
4 Insert the camera into the hole. Using a suitable screwdriver, tighten the three xing
clamps as shown. Do not overtighten the clamps.

Camera Adjustment
Camera Position
The camera assembly is adjustable in all three axes. Adjust the camera until it is pointing in the
desired direction.
FOV & Focus
Use the levers on the varifocal lens to adjust the camera’s eld of view, and focus.
The two buttons marked A and B that are situated below the camera lens are used to set the
camera. Press these buttons to access and navigate the on screen menu as follows:
• To access the menu system, press A momentarily.
• To cycle through the menu items, press A repeatedly.
• To change the setting in the selected menu item or go to a supplementary menu
page, press B.
• To save your settings, select Save and Exit and press B. Note that settings will be
saved when the menu times out.
Adjusting the Picture Settings
In most situations, the default settings give good quality results. However, in specic circumstances,
the following adjustments may improve performance.
Use the direction buttons to navigate the menu, and to select parameters.
Exiting the Menu System
The menu system can be exited by selecting SAVE AND EXIT with the up/down menu buttons and
then pressing the Enter button. Any changes made while within the menu system will be saved. The
menu system will be automatically exited if a key is not pressed for 2 minutes.
Exposure
Hi is intended for general usage including brightly lit outdoor scenes and indoor scenes which
contain a view outdoors. It maintains optimum contrast in the darker portions of a wide dynamic
scene.
Lo(w) may be used for indoor scenes, where the contrast between the brightest and darkest parts of
the picture is low. It maintains optimum contrast in the brighter portions of a wide dynamic scene.
AGC
This affects the way in which the camera displays scenes with lower illumination levels.
DnR gives the optimum performance for stationary or slow moving objects. DnR is a Digital Noise
Reduction system that reduce AGC noise by means of a eld integration algorithm. A consequence
of DNR is that moving objects can appear blurred at very low light levels. This setting has a
maximum gain of 24dB.
Motion provides a clear image of moving objects but may introduce noise into the darker parts of
the picture. This setting does not use DNR at high gain. The images are sharper than DNR but the
visible gain in the image is greater. This setting has a maximum gain of 24dB.
Low is less sensitive at low light levels and provides a relatively noise free picture. Setting the
AGC to LOW reduces the camera’s performance at low light, but improves image quality in bright
conditions. This is the preferred setting for well-lit scenes. This setting limits the gain to 7dB.
White Balance Range
With some street lighting, for example sodium or mercury lamps, the camera may show an overall
colour hue instead of white. In these situations, setting the White Balance Range to Wide corrects
the white balance.
PRO (default)
This setting limits the white balance range to 2800 - 6500K. This provides a more accurate colour
rendition.
WIDE
This setting extends the white balance range to 2500 - 9500K

Video Output Colour/Mono Mode
The video output is set to Colour by default. Set it to Mono for video output in monochrome or to C/M
for colour in normal light and monochrome in low light.
Fluorescent Lighting
Under some types of uorescent lighting, the colour may cycle. Set Fluorescent to On to help reduce
this. Alternatively, line-lock may reduce this problem (see Using AC Line Lock below).
ON
Reduces colour rolling that may occur under some types of uorescent lighting. For best results, line
lock synchronisation is recommended. If line lock synchronisation is not possible, an auto-iris lens
should be used.
OFF (default)
The default setting maximises dynamic range
Synchronisation
Using AC Line Lock
The line lock (LL) Sync settings of LL-Phase 1, LL-Phase 2, LL-Phase 3 and LL Manual are for use
when the video output of the camera needs to be synchronised to lighting (to reduce colour cycling),
or other video equipment (to eliminate picture rolling).
As line lock (LL) uses the frequency and phase of the 24V AC camera power to keep the video
synchronised, it is not available when connected to a DC supply.
Line-lock (LL) settings LL-Phase 1, LL-Phase 2, LL-Phase 3 are used to synchronise multiple
cameras across a distributed site where different mains electricity phases are used. Each of the
three settings has a 120° offset from the last; where 360° is equivalent to one frame of video
To minimise picture roll:
1 At the camera, select LL-Phase 1
2 At the central monitor (not the local monitor), test the setting by switching the video
display between other video sources and the camera and observing the picture roll.
3 Repeat with settings LL-Phase 2 and LL-Phase 3 until picture roll does not occur
Note: Line lock synchronisation can interfere with on-screen displays. In these circumstances
set the camera to Internal synchronisation.
Where the preset phase settings do not align the phase exactly with other equipment, the LL-Manual
setting provides a continuous variation of the picture phase.
Manual Line Lock
LL-Manual allows synchronisation to be adjusted by changing the video line offset in increments of
1. This allows for continuous phase adjustment over a complete video frame.
To set LL-Manual: Press B to increment the line number by 1. Hold down B to continually increase
the line number. Hold down A to continually decrease the line number
For your guidance this table shows equivalent phase settings:
Phase PAL lines NTSC lines
0 or 360° (LL-Phase 1) 0 or 624 0 or 525
120° (LL-Phase 2) 208 175
240° (LL-Phase 3) 416 350
