Installation Manual

Introduction

The installation of domes has been made much easier with many of Legend's innovations. All coaxial and UTP connections are built into the housing, and programming and addressing are site-tied to the housing. Site-tied memory allows you to replace cameras or move them between housings without having to reprogram them for each new site, because the camera will operate using the housing memory. As you install the first dome, you will find many other enhancements that make installation easier and quicker.

The general steps for installing your dome include:

• preparing the mounting surface and installing the mount (if used) and housing;

• preparing the cables and wiring the housing;

• addressing the camera site, setting the protocol, and setting the termination;

• installing the camera assembly; and

• installing the bubble.

Product description

Legend is the next generation PTZ dome camera that maintains and enhances many of the features of CyberDome that you have come to rely on. The Legend protocol is backward compatible, so you can replace older domes in an existing analog system with Legend domes. The hardware, however, is not backward compatible. Other enhancements that relate to performance and operation include replacing gears and belts with SilkTrak™ direct-drive technology for smoother camera travel, replacing the text-based on-screen display (OSD) programming interface with an easy-to-use graphical programming interface, and providing passcode protection that prevents unauthorized personnel from changing programming settings while still allowing operator access. The dome also now offers an Ethernet connection to flash software upgrades over a standard IP network using a standard web browser. For additional details, refer to the data sheet and the user manual, which provides the programming instructions for all of the dome’s features.

Product contents

The Legend system consists of the following:

• 1 housing

• 4 connectors (one 2-pin for power, one 4-pin for data, one blue 12-pin for six alarms, and one green 12-pin for two alarms, two relays, UTP video, and small screw driver)

• 2 manuals (installation and user, which covers programming and operation)

• 1 PTZ camera assembly

• 1 bubble (mirror bubbles are shipped with cotton gloves for special handling)

• 1 mount (wall-mount and flush-mount versions only)

You may receive the package contents in one large carton containing three boxes (four with wall-mount versions), or if shipped individually, you may receive three (or four) separate boxes. One box will contain the housing, connectors, and manuals. The PTZ assembly, bubble, and mount (for wall-mount versions) are each shipped in separate boxes.

Inspect the package and contents for visible damage. If any components are damaged or missing, do not use the unit; contact the supplier immediately. If you need to return the unit, you must ship it in the original box.

Spare parts can be purchased for the domes. See Spare parts list on page 40.

System requirements

Operational requirements

Legend contains a built-in receiver that decodes commands originating from a compatible controller keypad. A minimum of one keypad is required for operation. See Figure 1. From the keypad, an operator can pan, tilt, and zoom the camera, find presets, and start macros and ShadowTours. A typical advanced system is shown in Figure 2. For additional details, refer to the data sheet, user manual, or application guide.

Minimum load Dome configuration

100 lb. • Rugged, cast aluminum pendant-mount housing (with a ny mount)

50 lb. All other dome and mount configurations

For safety, the mounting surface, hardware, and procedure used for securing the dome must support the weight of the dome, mount (if used), cables, and any structural or environmental vibration accordi ng to local codes.

• Heavy duty housing (with any mount)

• Pressurized housing (with any mount)

• Swing-arm mount (with any dome)

Cable requirements

Table 2 lists the requirements for the cables that connect to the dome.

CAUTION

When flashing softwar e upg ra d e s to the do me over a standard IP network via the dome's Ethernet connection, ensure that the netw ork is secur ed fro m unautho rized access. Lik e all Ethernet connections , the dome's Ethernet connection has no security against unaut horized access. Y ou may consider connecting the Ethernet cable only when you are flashing the dome, unless you have the dome connected to a secure, isolated network.

Cable management

Follow all local codes for cable management. As a general rule, you can fill a cable conduit to a maximum of 60% of its capacity. You must maintain 40% free space. A variety of factors will determine how many cables you can run into the dome. Capacity limitations include:

• number of cables

• size of the cables

• number of alarms and relays wired

• use of single-conductor or multiple-conductor cable

• use or lack of use of a junction box

Figure 3 provides an illustration of the cable capacity of three typical applications. It is important to note that all cables of the same gauge are not of the same diameter. Manufacturer, shielding, and rating affect the actual

diameter of cables of the same gauge. GE leaves the selection of the appropriate cable to the discretion of the installer who is working with the local codes of the installation site.

Wall-mount Flush-mount

Flush-mount housings

Preparing the mounting surface

Following are the steps for preparing the mounting surface if you are mounting the housing directly into a solid surface that does not require reinforcement. For step-by-step instructions for preparing the surface for the GEA-114 T-bar support kit, see GEA-114 T -bar ceiling support kit on p age 35. If you are installing a GEA-113 T-bar ceiling panel, refer to the step-by-step instructions that came with the panel (1052914).

CAUTION

For all installations, heed these cautions:

• Complet e all installation steps before supplying power to the dome.

• To ensure proper operation of a PTZ unit, install the mount level.

• For safety, the mounting surface, hardware, and procedure used for securing the dome must

support the weight of the dome, mount, cables, and any structural or environmental vibration according to local codes. See Table 1, Minimum load requirements of dome conf igurations on page4.

T o prepare the mounting surface, see Figure5 and do the following:

1. Mark the position and size of the housing pass-through hole on the mounting surface. The size of the cutout for the pass-through must be 8 3/8 to 8 7/16 in. (21.27 to 21.42 cm).

2. Following all local codes, cut the housing pass-through hole.

3. Make sure that the facility cables (data, video, power, and alarm/relay) for the dome comply with the recommendations provided in Cable requirements on page 4.

4. Feed the facility cables through the housing pass-through hole in the mounting surface.

• Pull enough cable to make connections. You can always cut off unneeded length later.

• How many cables you have depends upon how many alarms and relays you are connecting in

addition to the video, data, and power cables, and if you will be installing an Ethernet cable for flash upgrades. See Wiring and addressing the dome on page 14.

Installing the housing

With the surface prepared and/or the mount now installed, install the housing. To install the housing, see Figure 6 on page 9 and do the following:

1. Remove either conduit knockout (side or top) in the housing.

2. Hold the housing up near the housing pass-through of the mount or cutout.

3. Connect a steel safety cable, if required by local codes.

a. Obtain a steel safety cable of 0.125 in. (3.175 cm) maximum diameter that complies with local codes. b. Snip off the nipple that opens access to the safety cable clip. c. Feed your sa fety cable through the exposed hole. d. Secure one end of the safety cable into the safety clip surrounding the exposed hole inside the housing. e. Secure the other end of the safety cable to the building superstructure.

WARNING

DO NOT run any cables next to the heaters. Doing so could damage the dome or cause an electrical fire.

4. Feed the facility cables through the conduit hole of the housing. Allow enough cable length to make

connections. Figure 6 on page 9 shows how the cables run through the housing.

CAUTION

Pendant-mount housings

Pendant-mount housings can be mounted to a pipe to lower them from a ceiling or to a wall-mount arm to extend them from a wall. Instructions are provided in this document for both mounting methods.

Preparing the mounting surface

Following are the steps for preparing the mounting surface if yo u are mounting the h ousing from a pipe. For stepby-step instructions for preparing the surface for the GEA-102 wall-mount arm, see Installing the wall-mount arm on page 32. If you are installing one of the other mounts, refer to the step-by-step instructions that came with that mount.

CAUTION

For all installations, heed these cautions:

• Complet e all installation steps before suppl ying power to the dome.

• To ensure proper operation of a PTZ unit, install the mount level.

• For safety, the mounting surface, hardware, and procedure used for securing the dome must

support the weight of the dome, mount, cables, and any structural or environmental vibration according to local codes. See Table 1, Minimum load requirements of dome configurations on page 4.

To prepare the mounting surface:

1. Following all local codes, install the pipe.

2. Make sure that the facility cables (data, video, power, and alarm/relay) for the dome comply with the recommendations provided in Cable requirements on page 4.

3. Feed the facility cables through the pipe in the mounting surface.

• Pull enough cable to make connections. You can always cut off unneeded length later.

• How many cables you have depends upon how many alarms and relays you are connecting in

addition to the video, data, and power cables, and if you will be installing an Ethernet cable for flash upgrades. See Wiring and addressing the dome on page 14.

Page 15

Installing the housing

With the pipe or mount now installed, install the housing.

CAUTION

Avoid getting rain or moisture in the housing so that the electronic components on the PCBs are not damaged.

To install the housing to a pipe or mount, see Figure 7 on page 12 and do the following:

1. If installing the housing onto a pipe: a. Spray soapy water on the pipe. b. For outdoor applications, slide the water-sealing rubber boot onto the pipe. c. Apply Teflon tape to the pipe threads.

2. Hold the housing up near the pipe or mount. If you installed the GEA-102 wall-mount arm, make sure that the safety chain is securely attached. See GEA-102 wall-mount arm on page 32 for details.

WARNING

DO NOT run any cables next to the heaters. Doing so could damage the dome or cause an electrical fire.

3. Feed the facility cables through the dust seal in the top of the housing. Allow enough cable length to make connections. Figure 7 on page 12 shows how the cables run through the housing.

CAUTION

4. Attach the housing to the pipe or mount.

• For pipe installations, thread the housing onto the pipe. If necessary, first turn the housing

counterclockwise to compensate for the cable twisting.

• For wall mount installations, use the fasteners that were provided with the mount.

Preparing the cables

Which and how many cables you will be preparing depends upon whether you are setting up your dome to transmit video via its coaxial or UTP source, how many alarms and relays you are connecting in addition to the video, data, and power cables, and if you will be installing an Ethernet cable for flash upgrades.

To prepare the facility camera cables, term inate the cable ends as shown in Figure 8.

Figure 8. Prepared cables

Power: strip ends of wires

Alarms and relays: strip ends of wires

Data: strip ends of wires (UTP for RS-422 or STP for RS-485)

Note: Analog video and data wires can share the same

jacket but must remain separate twisted pairs.

Video (UTP): strip ends of UTP wires

Note: Analog video and data wires can share the same

jacket but must remain separate twisted pairs.

Video (coaxial): terminate coaxial cable with BNC connecto r

Note: Use only crimp-on BNC connectors. Do not use screw-on connectors.

Ethernet (for flashing software upgrades): terminate standard CAT-5

Ethernet cable with RJ-45 connector

Note: If you are making your cables, do not add a boot. If you are using ready-

made cables that include a boot, cut off the boot and reterminate the cable.

Wiring and addressing the dome

For basic operation, you will be connecting data, video, and power cables to the dome. For advanced operation, you can also connect any combination of Ethernet, alarm, or relay cables to the dome. How many cables you will be feeding into the housing depends upon how many alarms and relays you are connecting in addition to the video, data, and power cables, and if you will be installing an Ethernet cable for flash upgrades.

The dome uses RS-422 for data communication. It is compatible with RS-485 systems. Remember that STP cable is used for RS-485 and UTP cable is used for RS-422. See Cable requirements on page 4.

Be sure to never let any cables get next to the heaters.

Wiring the housing board

To wire the housing board, see Figure 10 on page 16 and Figure 11 on page 17 and do the following:

1. Connect the facility data cables to the MAIN connections. The AUX connections are for future use. If you are installing RS-485 data, float the shield at the dome and ground it at the keypad.

Get the provided green 4-pin terminal block and connect the cable to the marked terminals. The MAIN data connections on the terminal block are for control wires that are coming in from the keypad. You may also daisy chain the data signal on to additional domes. The AUX data connections are for future use.

2. Connect the facility video cable.

• If you are installing UTP video, use the provided green 12-pin UTP terminal block. It provides

connections for UTP video, in addition to alarms 7 and 8 and relays 1 and 2.

• If you are installing coaxial video, locate the BNC connector.

Note: Use only crimp-on BNC connectors. Do not us e screw-on connectors.

3. Connect the facility power cable. Make sure that the power cable is fed over the top of the upper bracket and down beside the power connector. Use the provided 2-pin power terminal block. If you are using a heavier gauge cable, ensure that it is properly seated in the connector. Power in the Legend domes is not polarity sensitive.

When power is received by the housing board through the power connection, the housing board’s diagnostic power LED will appear orange. It appears orange because the red and green internal LEDs both illuminate. There are additional diagnostic LEDs that indicate the proper installation of the camera assembly (see Installing the camera assembly on page 20).

4. If you are installing alarms and relays, connect the alarm and relay cables to the two provided 12-pin terminal blocks. One is blue and one is green.

• Use dry contacts for alarms.

• Use relays with a maximum operating voltage of 30 VAC, 30 VDC at 0.5 A.

Note: Because of space constraints, if you are installing more than five alarms and/or relays, use a multiconductor

cable instead of individual single-pair cables.

CAUTION

When flashing softwar e upg ra d e s to the dome over a standard IP network via the dome's Ethernet connection, ensure that the network is secured from unauthorized access. Like all Ethernet connections, the dome's Ethernet connection has no security against u nauthorized access. Y ou may consider con necting the Ethernet cable only when you are flashing the dome, unless you have the dome connected to a secure, isolated network.

5. If you want to flash software upgrades to the dome, connect the Ethernet cable.

Addressing the camera site and setting the protocol

The dome provides rotary switches for setting the camera’s site address and communication protocol. Site addresses can be numbered from 0 to 1599.

To set the camera’s site address and protocol, see Figure 12 and Table 5 and do the following:

1. Locate the rotary switches. They are on the smallest and lowest board that is attached to the upper bracket.

2. Determine which position numbers or letters on the three rightmost switches must be added together to

equal the site number.

3. Determine which position number or letter on the leftmost switch is needed to set the protocol.

4. Align the needed characters on each switch with the switch’s white marker. Be careful that any tool

you use to turn the rotary switches does not slip and damage any board components.

Setting the termination

You must set the termination of the data signal in each dome (or device) to on or off. There are two termination switches. MAIN is for the dome input and AUX is for an auxiliary device output.

Note: The AUX termination switch is for future use along with the AUX data cable connections. In the future, you will need to

set both switches, but currently it does not matter whether the AUX termination switch is on or off.

To set the termination, see Figure 13 and do the following:

• Set the termination to ON if the dome or device is the final receiver location for the data signal.

• Set the termination to OFF if the data signal needs to loop out to other domes or devices.

Installing the camera assembly

Most people can install the camera assembly with one hand. If you need to use two hands, do so. After installation, there is a pause for about 30 seconds, then the drive mechanism performs a PTZ self-test and initializes. DO NOT move the camera while it is self-testing and initializing. After the self-test, the drive mechanism operates continuously.

You do not need to remove power from the dome or stop the camera’s movement before removing the camera assembly. Just remember that the heaters may be hot, so comply with the caution label and do not touch them.

Be prepared for the PTZ self-test that immediately follows the installation of the camera assembly.

• After the camera assembly is installed, it will pause for about 30 seconds before the self-test begins.

• The self-test takes from 3 to 5 seconds.

• During the self-test, the PTZ will travel to find its reference points to initialize itself.

To install the camera assembly, see Figure 15 on page 21 and do the following:

1. To protect the lens, leave the lens cap on the camera until you have finished the installation.

2. Attach the safety lanyard to the camera assembly to suspend it safely while you continue working.

3. Align the camera assembly with the housing.

• Align the two color-coded alignment tabs with the two color-coded alignment slots.

Note: The alignment tabs are color-coded and of two different widths to help prevent reversed installation.

• Align the three standoff posts with the three standoff notches.

4. Push the camera assembly straight up so that the interconnect card slips easily into its socket and each

of the two pawls (one on either side of the camera assembly) comes to a solid rest on the landing of each of the two alignment tabs. If the camera assembly is not level, remove and reinstall it.

5. If the dome is powered, observe the diagnostic LEDs shown in Figure 14 to verify that the camera

assembly has been properly plugged in and powered. The LEDs on the right should be red (left) and green (right, and blinking once per second), showing that the dome's programming has starte d and is running. If you have an Ethernet connection, the second LED in the group of four on the left should be red. If the LEDs are not appropriately lit, reseat the camera assembly for a proper connection.

Installing the bubble

There are a variety of bubbles and housings. The interlocking clips and safety cables may vary, but all bubbles have them.

CAUTION

To prevent damage, do not touch the bubble with your bare hands, do not place the bubble face down on any surface, and protect the bubble from dust. Oil and acid residue from your hands can etch some bubble surfaces and is difficult to remove. Use a scratch-resistant cloth or gloves when handling the bubble.

To attach the bubble to the housing, do the following and see Figure 16 on page 23:

1. Fasten the bubble safety cable to the housing’s safety clip.

2. Swing the bubble up to the housing and align the bubble’s screws with the housing’s bubble screw holes.

If you are installing a plastic pendant-mount housing, there are alignment guides on the housing ring that straddle the rear-facing screw hole of the bubble ring.

3. Use the following guidelines for tightening the bubble screws.

• If you are installing a plastic pendant-mount or flush-mount housing, the bubble screws are selflocking, quarter-turn captive screws and require only a quarter turn to tighten.

CAUTION

Do not use a power drill with the self-locking, quarter turn captive screws. A power drill can strip the heads of the screws or the inside of the screw inserts (in the housing) enough to necessitate replacing the housing.

• If you are installing a flush-mount housing, the bubble ring contains a foam pad that requires you to push up while turning the screws.

• If you are installing the bubble on a rugged vandal-resistant housing, the screws are tamperresistant and require the provided Torx-pinned bit for tightening. Do not tighten those screws to more than 0.196 kgm (1.42 lb/ft) torque.

4. Clean any fingerprints off of the bubble. See Cleaning the bubble on page 29.

Installation Manual

Turning on the passcodes

The last task of installing the dome is turning on the passcodes, if desired, before going to the user manual to program the dome. The passcodes control who has access to the features of your dome. Only the installer through the installer passcode has permission to turn on, turn off, or change the passcodes.

The dome ships with no default passcodes. When you enter the programming interface for the first time during installation and go to Setup | Passcode, the passcode fields are blank. Blank passcode fields mean the passcodes are turned off (disabled). You can choose to enter passcodes into the blanks. This turns passcodes on (enables them) and a passcode will be required to enter the programming interface the next time you access it.

CAUTION

If using passcodes, record them in a secure place. If you forget the passcodes for a dome, you will need to send the dome back to the factory so that it can be reset by the factory with no passcodes.

If no passcodes are programmed, all users are given installer access and are not required to log on. If only the Admin and Operator passcodes are programmed, then anyone can still access the entire programming interface as an installer, since the Installer passcode was not programmed.

You can turn on one installer passcode, one admin passcode, and one operator passcode. They have the following permissions:

Installer: The installer passcode allows access to all dome features. Admin: The admin passcode allows access to all dome features, except passcodes and firmware

upgrades.

Operator: The operator passcode allows no access until it is granted access to specific features on an

area-by-area basis.

To access the programming interface and turn on passcodes, do the following:

1. At the normal display , press and hold the set

( ) key on the keypad until you hear a

Figure 17. Normal display (visible before programming interface accessed)

beep and the programming code display appears on the keypad’s LCD.

Diagnostic LEDs

Housing board power indication

When power is received by the housing board through the power connection, the housing board’s diagnostic power LED will appear orange. It appears orange because the red and green internal LEDs both illuminate. The housing board power LED is located on the PC board that is attached to the underside of the upper bracket. It can be seen before the camera assembly is installed. See Figure 27.

Common installation issues

Following are the solutions to the most common issues users have with installation. Solutions are given in the order of most to least likely cause.

Note: For programming and operating issues, refer to the L egend User Manual (1052027) and the user manual for your

controller keypad.

Is the dome resetting during power-up, not powering up at all, or powering up but not operating as expected?

Verify that you are supplying sufficient power for your model of dome. See Power requirements on page 6.

Are the diagnostic LEDs not illuminating?

• First, look at and feel the camera assembly to make sure that it is fully engaged with the upper bracket.

Remember that the alignment tabs and slots are color coded. Is orange engaged with orange and white with white? Are the pawls seated on their corresponding landings? Is the interconnect card fully seated into its socket? If not, remove and reinstall the camera assembly. See Installing the camera assembly on page 20.

• If that doesn’t work, then check the power cable and verify that it is properly connected. See Wiring

the housing board on page 15.

Is video not appearing on the monitor screen?

• First, look at the LEDs that are visible below the dome and verify that the unit is powered and that the

programming is running. See Camera assembly power indication on page 27. If the dome is not powered or the programming is not running properly, remove and reinstall the camera assembly. See

Installing the camera assembly on page 20.

• If the video still does not appear, then check the video cable and verify that it is properly connected.

For UTP video, ensure that the + and - ends of the cable are correctly connected to maintain the polar sensitivity of the UTP video cable. See Wiring the housing board on page 15.

Do you have video but no PTZ control?

• First, verify the address of the dome. You can do this easily by pressing and holding the view key on

the KTD-405 keypad. The dome’s information will be displayed on the monitor screen. If necessary, correct the address and/or protocol using the procedure in Addressing the camera site and setting the protocol on page 18.

• If you still don’t have control of the video, verify that the data cable is properly connected. See Wiring

the housing board on page 15.

• Finally, try resetting (cycling) the power to the dome by turning the power off then on.

Page 33

Installation Manual

Cleaning the interior of the bubble

To clean the interior of the bubble:

• To remove dust and other surface contaminants, first use clean, dry, pressurized air to gently blow off

loose material.

• To remove heavier contaminants, rinse the bubble with water and immediately dry it with clean, dry,

pressurized air to prevent water spots.

• To remove stubborn contaminants, use a “wick” to clean the bubble’s surface. To make the wick:

a. Use a high-quality, soft paper towel. b. Roll a section of the paper towel into a tightly wound tube, tear the tube in half, and wet a fuzzy

end with 75% standard rubbing or isopropyl alcohol.

c. Hold the bubble with its opening facing downward and wipe the interior with the wick (held at its

dry end) using a circular motion starting from the outside and spiraling into the center.

d. Use a new wick for each of two additional passes over the bubble.

Installation Manual

Appendix. Installing the individual mounts

All mounts (arms, adapters, and brackets) are shipped with installation instructions. This manual provides the installation instructions for only those mounts that are shipped with dome kits, which includes the wall-mount arm and the T-bar support kit.

GEA-102 wall-mount arm

The cast aluminum wall-mount arm is used to mount a dome to a vertical surface. It is for indoor or outdoor use and mates with both the plastic indoor and cast aluminum outdoor pendant housings. It can be attached directly to a vertical surface or mated with a bracket (corner-mount, pole-mount, or roof-mount). Instructions for mating this mount to the various brackets are provided in the instructions for those brackets. The following instructions explain how to install the wall-mount arm directly to a vertical surface.

Installing the wall-mount arm

See the corresponding figures and do the following:

CAUTION

For all installations, heed these cautions:

• Complet e all installation steps before suppl ying power to the dome.

• To ensure proper operation of a PTZ unit, install the mount level.

• For safety, the mounting surface, hardware, and procedure used for securing the dome must

support the weight of the dome, mount, cables, and any structural or environmental vibration according to local codes. See Table 1, Minimum load requirements of dome configurations on page 4.

1. The facility cables usually come out of the mounting surface and enter the arm through the rear opening in the base. If the cables are attached externally to the mounting surface and need to enter the arm through the side, open the conduit hole in the side of the arm with the instructions given in

Opening a conduit hole on page 35.

2. The factory secures the end of the safety chain to the collar opening with a quick tie. To keep the safety chain from slipping into the arm, leave the safety chain tied until you

3. Remove the access cover.

4. Using the arm as a template, place it level against the mounting surface and mark the position of the mounting holes, and if needed, the cable entry hole.

Figure 30. Removing the access cover

Figure 31. Marking the mounting and cable entry holes

5. Following all local codes, drill and prepare the mounting holes, and if needed, cut the cable entry hole.

6. Feed the cables through the cable entry hole in the mounting surface or through the conduit attached to the opened conduit hole, and up through the arm.

• Pull enough cable to make connections. You can always cut off unneeded length later.

• Do not terminate the cables yet. Otherwise, they will not fit through the dust seal of the housing.

• How many cables you pull depends upon how many alarms and relays you are connecting in addition to the video, data, and power cables, and if you will be installing an Ethernet cable for flash upgrades. See Wiring and addressing the dome on page 14.
