BusSecure User Manual Theory of Operations
1 THEORY OF OPERATIONS
BusSecure is an industry-specific security camera system developed to help solve problems experienced by fleet operators. It is a digital video recording system that can support up to four cameras in a mobile environment and store captured images in a vehicle-mounted digital video recorder (DVR). Images can then be viewed and examined later.
1.1 DIGITAL VIDEO RECORDING
The central component of the BusSecure system is a high-quality DVR, which records images from up to four cameras (monochrome or color, NTSC or PAL) with single-channel audio and information such as the time, date, and vehicle number. Image storage capacity can be adjusted by recording speed, selected resolution, and drive size.
The DVR begins capturing images as soon as the vehicle’s engine is started and continues to record as long as the vehicle is running. When the available storage capacity is full, the DVR will automatically purge the oldest image data to make room for new image data. Tagged images (images recorded because of alarm activation) can be protected from being overwritten for a user-designated period of time (the default setting is 30 days) or can be protected from being over written at all.
1.2 VIEWING AND RETRIEVING IMAGES
The captured digital images are stored as monochrome or color files, and are taken from the DVR and downloaded to a computer with the BusSecure WaveReaderTM software. The DVR connects through an Ethernet connection to a standard desktop PC or Laptop installed with a Windows 98/2000/NT/XP
operating system. When the DVR is connected to a PC or Laptop with the WaveReader software, images can be viewed and transferred to long-term storage media such as DAT tapes, floppy disks, or recordable CDs.

2.2 DETERMINING A S YSTEM LAYOUT
Figure 2 is an example camera layout for a bus application.
Note: For installation of these cameras, see their respective manuals.
Note: Camera layout and fields of view will vary from vehicle to vehicle, and each customer will determine camera names or
descriptions. Camera types, fields of view, and cable lengths will be determined by the customer-specific system layout.
The Front Door camera is located at the front of the bus over the driver’s head, looking at the front
passenger entry.
The Forward Facing camera is located in the front of the bus, looking in front of the bus. The Front to Rear camera is located in the front of the bus, looking down the center aisle to the rear of the bus. The Rear Facing camera is located at the back of the bus, looking behind the bus.

2.3 RUNNING CAMERA CABLES
CAUTION
When installing cables, follow these guidelines:
Avoid excessive lengths of cable at the control and device end. Excess cable should be pulled back to a
duct area where it can be folded and secured. Leave a service loop as directed for specific devices.
Cables should not come into contact with bare metal edges, light ballasts, or magnetic speaker coils. If
ballasts and speaker coils cannot be avoided, cross them perpendicularly.
Cables that are secured with cable-ties should not be tightened to the extent that the cable is
compressed or damaged. The cables should not be crimped, crushed, or severely bent.
When passing cables through tapping plates or metal side walls of the vehicle, insert grommets in the
holes to protect the cable, if possible This may not be feasible in a retrofit situation. If it is not feasible, make sure that the protective outer CL2 jacket is maintained when passing cable through hole.
When pulling cable through the conduit, do not jerk or over-pull the cables. These actions will stretch
and damage the cable. Attach a pull-line to the cable jacket, not to the connectors.
1) Route cables from each camera location to the DVR location as determined by your customer­specific system layout. Figure 3 shows an example system layout.
2) If cables must be pulled through vehicle walls with limited access or conduit, attach pull lines to the cables jackets, and gently pull cables through the appropriate routing paths.
3) After reaching camera locations, leave enough cable for a 6-inch service loop at each location.
4) Pull any excess cable back into the duct area where it can be folded and secured.

2.4 INSTALLING CAMERA ASSEMBLIES
The BusSecure system will support up to four cameras (color and/or monochrome). Cameras supported by the BusSecure system can provide a 1.0 V pk-pk composite analog video signal, either NTSC or PAL, at 75 ohm (CCTV standard).
2.4.1 INSTALLING SURFACE-MOUNT CAMERA ASSEMBLIES
Surface-mount camera housings are typically mounted to the ceiling, but can be mounted to any flat vehicle surface.
Note: In some installations, it is necessary to use a metal tapping plate behind the mounting surface. If a tapping plate is used, prepare it in the same way as the mounting surface (i.e., drill a cable entry hole and mounting holes in the appropriate locations).
1) Use the template in Appendix A to mark the location of the cable-entry hole and two mounting holes. See Figure 4.
2) Using a 3/16-inch (5 mm) (drill bit, drill the two mounting holes.
3) Using a 1-inch (25.4 mm) drill bit, drill the cable entry hole.
4) Install a 3/4-inch (20 mm) (interior diameter) grommet on
the cable entry hole, or where feasible.
5) Connect the video and power cables to the camera, and feed the excess cable into the vehicle’s duct area.
6) Mount the camera and mounting plate to the vehicle surface (and tapping plate, if used). See Figure 5.
7) Refer to section 2.4.3 to align the camera’s field of view to the appropriate angle.
8) Secure the surface-mount housing to the mounting plate with the four 3/8-inch tamper-resistant tamper-torque machine screws provided, using a bit of blue locktite. See Figure 6.

2.4.2 INSTALLING FLUSH-MOUNT CAMERA ASSEMBLIES
There are two types of flush-mount cameras—square and angled. Flush-mount camera assemblies are mounted flush with the side panels of the vehicle.
Note: The square bezel that holds the glass camera cover has countersunk holes in the back side that cover the two housing screws. The housing and bezel screws are separate to allow access to the camera for focusing and adjusting while the housing is held firmly in place.
1) Verify that there is at least 6 inches (153 mm) of clearance behind the mounting location.
2) Cut a 3.4- by 3.4-inch (81 mm) hole in the appropriate location on the mounting surface.
3) Using the housing as a template, mark the location of the mounting holes.
4) Using a 3/16-inch (5 mm) drill bit, drill the mounting holes.
5) Connect the video and power cables to the camera assembly.
6) Mount the camera assembly to the vehicle surface using two fasteners screwed into panel nuts.
See Figure 7 or 8 (depending on the type of camera assembly being installed).
Figure 7. Angled flush-mount housing installation Figure 8. Square flush-mount housing installation
7) Refer to section 2.4.3 Adjusting Cameras for Functional Field of View to align the camera’s field of view according to the appropriate angle.
8) Attach the cover plate to the housing. If you are installing a square housing, you must drill two additional mounting holes for the cover plate. See Figure 9 or 10.

2.4.3 ADJUSTING CAMERAS FOR FUNCTIONAL FIELD OF VIEW
Depending on location, the camera’s position might have to be adjusted to provide the best field of view. Adjusting the camera positioning might include altering the position of the camera and, for surface-mount cameras, using a spacer.
To adjust the angle of the camera, see Figure 11 and perform the following:
1) Loosen the camera’s pivot screws.
2) Rotate the camera to the correct
angle.
3) Retighten the pivot screws.
Surface-mount cameras are configured at the factory to be installed onto the ceiling of the vehicle. If you are installing a surface-mount camera on the side of the vehicle, see Figure 12 and perform the following to rotate the camera lens:
Figure 11. Adjusting the camera angle
CAUTION
Over-tightening the set and pivot screws can damage the camera’s lens.
1) Loosen the setscrew on the top of the camera assembly.
2) Rotate the camera assembly 90°.
3) Retighten the setscrew.
