1. Introduction

This unit is designed to provide clear video images, even in extreme conditions. A robust mechanism,

allied with the latest technology, offers excellent auto-focus during PTZ operations. Exact location control,

following preset programmed operations, high-speed zoom and auto focus capabilities for shooting

moving objects, are just some of this camera’s features. The at window and over 700TVL provide a vivid

picture quality, and the zoom interlocked Target IR LED technology gives outstanding performance when

monitoring night time environments; it also features 512x Super WDR.

Long-distance objects are easily distinguished with the outstanding performance of the Sony 36x Optical

and 32x Digital Zoom; total Power Zoom capability of 1152x. The IR models have x2 High Intensity

“Target” Infra-Red LED’s that fully integrate with the camera’s 36x zoom module, giving extremely detailed

images at night time. During a zoom operation the LED coverage changes proportionately with the zoom

of the camera. The angle of LED coverage goes from 60 degrees at its widest part to 6 degree at its

narrowest. This minimises light pollution and eliminates IR illumination of unimportant areas. Medium to

long range targets become the true focal point for the camera lens and the LED’s. There is also a built-in

and adjustable de-fog function which enhances images in foggy or misty environments.

Features

• 1/4” Sony Super HAD CCD

• Powerful Night Vision - up to 100m in Ideal Conditions – IR Models Only

• Target IR LED’s (IR angle 6~60 degrees; synchronised with the optical zoom ratio) – IR Models Only

2. Safety Warning

* The purpose of this information is to ensure proper use of this product and to prevent danger and

damage to persons and property. Please observe all precautions.

* The precautions are divided into “Warnings” and “Cautions” as distinguished by the symbols shown

below;

Warning: Ignoring these warnings may result in death or serious injury.

Caution: Ignoring these cautions may result in injury or damage to property.

Caution: Instructions alert you to the

potential risk of injury or

damage to property

Warning: Instructions alert you to the

potential risk of death or

serious injury

Warning

1. Only use the standard Power Adapter ) Using any other adapter

could cause re, electrical shock, or damage to the product, and invalidate the warranty.

2. Before connecting the power supply, and signal wires, make sure the external connections are
isolated. Connect the alarm signal wires to the alarm terminals, the communication wires to the
terminal block and the AC adapter to the AC power input receptacle (incorrectly connecting the
power supply may cause re, electrical shock, or damage to the product).

3. Do not connect multiple cameras to a single Power Adapter. Exceeding the adapter’s current

capacity can cause abnormal heat generation or re.

4. Securely plug, or connect, the power cord into the power receptacle. An insecure or loose connection
may cause a re.

5. When installing the camera on a wall or ceiling etc. fasten it securely using suitable anchor bolts
and/or xings. An unsecured camera could fall and cause serious personal injury, or even a fatality.

6. Do not place conductive objects (e.g. screwdrivers, coins or other metal objects) inside any part of
the camera. Doing so may cause personal injury, a re or an electrical shock.

7. Do not install the unit in humid or dusty locations. Doing so may cause a re or electrical shock.

8. If any unusual smells or smoke come from the unit, stop using the product immediately, disconnect

the camera from the power source and contact your distributor.

9. If this product fails to operate normally, contact your distributor. Never disassemble or modify

this product in any way.

10. Always clean the camera with water and wipe the surface dry with a soft lint free cloth. Never use

detergents or chemical agents on the product, as this may result in discolouration of the painted
surface or cause damage to the nish.

Caution

1. Do not drop objects on the product, or apply strong shocks to it. Keep away from locations subject
to excessive vibration or magnetic interference.

2. Do not install in locations subject to a continual high temperature range (over 50°C), continual low
temperature (below -40°C) or high humidity.

3. Avoid locations which are exposed to direct sunlight, radiation or near heat sources such as heat­ers or radiators.

4. If an already installed product needs to be relocated, make sure the power is turned off before it is
moved.

5. Always try and install in a well-ventilated environment.

6. Make sure the camera is adequately protected against lightning strikes by using a suitably rated
surge protector, which must be locally grounded. Failure to do so could irreparably damage the
camera, and any attached communication and telemetry equipment.

4. Mounting

This unit is designed for installation in the upright or inverted
position. It is a heavy duty mechanism and requires a secure
and safe installation surface, and we recommend installers
use brackets, towers and columns which comply with the
industrial standard - 4” (142.0mm) PCD.

Cable connections are made using the camera base.

The camera base is supplied with a 4” (142.0mm) PCD
adapter plate and connects to a bracket or tower using three
M8 Hex Bolts, s/w, p/w and Nylon Nuts, with Spring and Plate
Washers.

• Mounting (Locally procured )

The camera is supplied with an adapter, 4” (101.6mm) PCD, which complies with the uniform standard
for UK Pole or Column camera mounts.

A Safety Wire, made from stainless steel, is provided for securing the Robo PTZ



during installation and maintenance visits; to prevent damage and injury.

During installation and maintenance visits, please make sure the Safety Wire is
rmly connected to a secure xing.

• Offset Mounting

When an installation requires the camera module to be tilted down – to obtain an angle of view

immediately below Robo PTZ – the following procedure MUST be followed. We recommend using a local

test monitor to check the viewing angle before nally xing the module into position.

Master

Keylock

Tilt 90°

Hex Bolt

Retaining M3 Screw

Undo the Hex Bolt, using a 36mm Spanner, when the camera is in 0° Tilt.

Then, using a screwdriver, undo the 4 x M3 Retaining Screws.

Completely remove the silver Master Keylock Cog – failure to do so will result in irreparable
damage to the camera head.

After tilting down the camera module to the required angle, replace the Master Keylock Cog (this is
keyed and only can be located in a unique position), the M3 Retaining Screws and the Hex Bolt. The
Torque setting for the Hex Bolt is 0.84Kg/m.

DO NOT excessively tighten the Retaining Screws or Hex Bolt.

• Changing the Wiper

The Wiper can be removed, changed and replaced
by undoing the two retaining screws.

Please keep the window glass clean to maintain clear images.

• 14-Pin Cable Connection

5. Telemetry Control

This unit is designed with a range of diverse Telemetry Control systems, based on compatibility with
industrial standard protocols. It works by using these integrated protocols directly, or via 3rd party
protocol converters.

Telemetry Control is via way of RS485 or Coaxial based video transmission equipment. Some limitation
on protocols and/or software changes may not guarantee to take full advantage of all the features from

the manufacturer, and may limit features and operation of the Robo PTZ

When the Telemetry Control is based on RS485, the address range is limited to 127.

• On-Board Protocols





This unit provides On-Board Protocols, including:

• BBV 422

• Pelco D

• Pelco P

• DIL (Dual In-Line) Switches

Two 8-way DIL Switches are contained within a waterproofed cover on the camera body; these
are used to select the camera address, communication protocol and baud rate.

• RS485 Termination

If Robo PTZ is using RS485 communication, please make sure the Bus is correctly installed and congured

to prevent malfunctions. The maximum allowed cable distance is 1200 metres. A Maximum of 32 units

can be connected to a cable section.

Any cable type which exceeds the specication of EIA RS485 can be used. The furthest device, by cable

length, should be terminated in accordance with the specication. Other devices should remain un-

terminated (see Figure 11 below).

• Keyboard Operation

Key Sequences and Joystick movements are executed to closely control the camera and program the

Telemetry Control system of Robo PTZ. Examples of these are PRESET and TOUR.

If a Keyboard cannot be used to access and change the camera parameters, most characteristics are

accessible through the camera’s OSD menu.

Note – Changing a Keyboard’s Software and/or Protocol can effect alterations to the camera’s

operability. The Robo PTZ manufacturer absolves itself of responsibility for such modications.
