1.01 Introduction

IRIS216 and IRIS316 Thermal Imaging PTZ cameras convert heat emitted and reﬂected from objects into a detailed visual image. This means they can be used to provide visibility in absolute zero light conditions.

They provide an incredibly powerful method to help navigate at night and in low light or poor visibility conditions. Any changes in temperature greater then 50mK are detected, meaning it's possible to observe reﬂections of objects, footprints after a person has left the area or even the texture of snow and ice.

A powerful sensor known as a Micro-bolometer picks up the long range infra red waveforms omitted and reﬂected by all objects and converts them into electrical signals which are used to build up a visual screen. The amount of pixels on the sensor and their proximity to each other determine the sensitivity of the unit and the resolution of the picture. The IRIS216 has a 384x288 resolution and the IRIS316 has a 640x480 resolution. The IRIS216 is referred to as a QVGA resolution, although in fact it has 44% more pixels than a standard QGVA image. The IRIS316 is referred to as a VGA camera. Both cameras have a pixel pitch of 17µm.

Iris thermal imaging cameras are perfect additions to both leisure marine and commercial marine navigational and situational awareness set-ups. They are also used widely by the military and emergency services. Iris Thermal cameras are feature rich, high quality situational awareness and night vision tools. Because the wavelengths used are twenty times longer than the wavelengths in the visible part of the spectrum, the radiation undergoes less scattering by particles in the atmosphere and as a result, visibility through smoke, mist and fog can also be improved.

Iris Innovations range of Thermal Imaging cameras employ cutting edge technology to enhance on board safety and security in a variety of ways never seen before in the marine industry. Key features include:

• Continuous ʻSmoothʼ Digital Zoom, up to 36x

• 9 Colour Palettes, each with reverse polarity

3.01 Examples of Typical Systems

A basic conﬁguration will consist of a single camera, a camera controller and a viewing medium (either a dedicated video monitor or a multi-functional display (MFD)). The video feed from the camera is routed directly into the MFD, and the control data from the joystick is sent directly to the camera.

Systems become more complicated where there are multiple cameras, monitors and/or controllers and where more complex video and data transmission methods are employed such as wireless or Internet Protocol (IP) conversions. The diagrams below detail a number of different connection conﬁgurations.

In theory it is possible to have up to 255 controllable devices in a system (cameras or controllers) and unlimited ﬁxed cameras, but this is obviously dependent on the video switching equipment installed, the camera control data management and/ or the vessels on board LAN - and of coarse the size of the vessel!

The key issue when installing multiple controllable cameras is that they have individual addresses (see below). A popular conﬁguration would be something along the lines of 2 x controllable cameras, 4 x ﬁxed (static) cameras and 2 x controllers. This would mean that the number of video inputs required would exceed the amount of inputs offered by most chart plotters and so a video switcher (such as the IRIS606 c Camera switcher) would be required. Video from each camera is routed into the video switcher and the output from the switcher is then routed into a single input of the chart plotter. Switching is controlled by a dedicated waterproof keypad connected to the switcher. The data wires from each of the controllable cameras, along with the data wires from the two controllers would then need to be routed into a Serial Data Distributor (also known as an Expander), such as the IRIS EXP0204. This simpliﬁes installation and prevents ʻcross-talkʼ and ʻreﬂectionsʼ and the data line that can result in poor camera control and ʻover-runsʼ.

4.01 Camera Control Data

IRIS216/316 cameras are controlled via an RS485 serial data connection, using a variant of the Pelco-D CCTV camera control protocol. The Pelco-D protocol was designed to provide accurate controls for a wide range of standard CCTV features, such as pan, tilt, user preset features etc, but do not include features speciﬁc to thermal imaging cameras and other extended features supported by Iris cameras. Because of this, Iris have mapped their product speciﬁc features to certain user preset commands and to other modiﬁed Pelco-D commands. This means that Iris thermal PTZ cameras can be controlled either by a dedicated Iris joystick controller such as the IRIS516 or IRIS507, as well as other control devices, such as compatible chart-plotters, multi-functional displays and third party joysticks. For further information on compatible third party control interfacing please contact Iris Innovations. For certain third party interfacing, additional serial protocol convertors may be required where NMEA0183 or NMEA2000 connections are used.

4.02 Cabling Requirements

The camera has a 3 meter tail into which a 50cm breakout cable is connected. The breakout tail has the following connections: Video (female 75Ω BNC connector), Data (2 x bare wires: RS485+ (RED wire) and RS485- (Black wire)) and Power (2.5mm DC Barrel Jack connector). Individual video, data and power cables can be run back to the control position and power distribution position or a combination cable (such as IRISCOMBPTZ-xx) can be used. Alternatively, an Active Video Balun set can be used to allow a single CAT5 cable to be run. Please note however that although Baluns facilitate the use of CAT5 cables, these should on no account be routed through ethernet routing and switching hardware as this will cause permanent damage. If Baluns are used, ensure the CAT5 cables are managed completely separately from your IP network. Contact Iris Innovations for further details. Video cables need to be coaxial with an impedance of 75Ω such as RG59, URM70 or similar. Power cables need to be 2 core DC cable rated at 5A (maximum voltage 36VDC) Data Cables need to be twisted pair Belden style data cables (0.5mm) or equivalent.

4.03 Setting Camera Address

Each camera must have itʼs own unique address so that only control data intended for that camera is received and processed by the camera. If multiple cameras had the same address, they would all move together when pan and tilt commands are transmitted. To set the camera address, remove the DIP switch cover plate on the base of the camera with a small cross-head screw driver, taking care not to loose the 4 screws or the rubber ʻOʼ seal, and set the DIP switches on switch bank 1 accordingly. A table detailing the switch settings can be found at the end of this document.

Once the desired address has been set, carefully replace the DIP switch cover plate.

4.04 Installation Considerations

It's important to fully consider the intended position of the camera and the desired ﬁelds of view prior to installation, in terms of how you are going to get cables to the position, will the camera be able to see the appropriate areas, will the camera interfere with any other ﬁxture such as a doorway or walkway once it's ﬁxed in place, or are there any obstructions behind the surface onto which the camera is to be installed. It's strongly recommended that if possible the camera should be temporarily powered up prior to ﬁnal installation and offered into position so that these factors can be considered and any possible issue can be addressed before holes are drilled and difﬁcult, time consuming and costly cable runs are attempted. Check third party hardware to ensure it doesn't effect the operation of the camera and vice versa.

4.05 Protocol Information

DIP switch bank 2 is reserved for setting the baud rate and protocol details. This is factory set to 9600 Baud, Pelco-D Protocol, N-8-1 (No Parity Bits, 8 Data Bits, 1 Stop Bit). Do not attempt to change these settings as they are locked. Changing the settings of Switch bank 2 could result in the camera not responding to data commands.

Full details of the Pelco-D control protocol can be found at

www.pelco.com.

As well as the standard Pelco-D command set, Iris cameras use their own commands based on the Pelco protocol to call features that are speciﬁc to the model or are not covered by the Pelco command set. For further details contact Iris Innovations.

5.01 Hardware Installation

The different parts of your camera are labelled here:

Once youʼve established a suitable ﬁxing position, use the ﬁxing plate as a template to mark off the three Surface Fixing Positions and the cable clearance position.

The camera is supplied with 3 x Stainless Steel, anti-tamper, self tapping screws. Drill pilot holes accordingly and use a 14mm hole saw to create the cable entry hole.

Attach the camera to itʼs base plate using the M5 x 10mm Countersunk screws supplied. Iris recommend that a screw ﬁxing agent is used to strengthen the ﬁt (see diagram below).

When the cables are correctly terminated (see next section), offer the camera up into the ﬁxing position and ﬁrmly screw into place.

Observe extreme caution when siting the camera. Ensure the act of drilling the pilot holes and cable entry hole does not infringe any cables, equipment or ﬁxtures behind the panel onto which the camera is to be installed.

To avoid moisture ingress between the bottom of the BRK-P160 ﬁxing plate and the surface onto which the camera is to be attached, apply a bead of suitable silicone sealant around the edge of the plate to create a seal.

Standard (or ʻDesktopʼ) Orientation

The camera is factory set for installation in the ʻStandardʼ orientation as shown here. To install in the hanging orientation as shown in the main image above, ensure the cameras video output has been set to vertical ﬂip. This can either be done via your controller or via the DIP switches. Details are provide later in this document.

6.01 Connections

As shown in the diagram below, a 3.5 meter ʻumbilicalʼ cable tail extends from the base of the camera and is terminated with a water resistant circular ʻAviationʼ connector. Into this connects a 500mm ʻBreakoutʼ lead, which has three separate tails as shown. One for Video, one for DC 12V Power, and a third for RS485 Serial Data connection.

6.02 Video Connections

The camera breakout tail features a male BNC connector for the video signal. When using coaxial video extension cables that are usually also supplied with a male BNC connector, a BNC ʻThrupieceʼ adapter can be used to connect the two cables together. The camera has a composite video output (1VP~P / 75Ω). Ensure appropriate extension cables are used for this speciﬁcation. Contact Iris Innovations for further information if you are unsure which cable to use.

Many Multifunctional Displays (MFDʼs) / Chart Plotters use RCA (Phono) jacks for video inputs. In this case use a female BNC to Phone Jack (Male) adapter. These are available from Iris Innovations and can also be sourced from any good home electronics / AV suppliers. Video from Iris cameras can be viewed on most leading manufacturers MFD / Chart Plotter products.

6.03 Data Connections

Ensure correct polarity is observed when connecting the RS485 serial data wires that provide control of the camera. Wires are labelled RS485+ (Red) and RS485- (Black) for convenience. The Transmit line (RS485+) should be connected to the Receive line (RS485-) and vice versa. If, once connected you have no control, reverse the polarity of the data wires as this is a common error made during installations. Never connect the RS485 wires to a power source as this could permanently damage the camera or controller. Observe care when connecting as the RS485 wires are coloured red and black and could be confused for DC power lines.

Even if the cable connections are made in an internal location or in an area that wouldnʼt usually be exposed to moisture, it is recommended that the connections are protected from any possible erosion or salt water / salt atmosphere conditions by wrapping the terminations in a suitable tape of covering.

6.04 Powering Up

Upon switching on the circuit breaker that isolates the camera, the unit will perform an initialization routine. During this routine, which lasts approximately 30 seconds, the camera will pan and tilt automatically in order to calibrate itself. You will notice the mechanical shutter 'wiping' the image frequently for the ﬁrst few minutes as the unit warms up. This will eventually settle into an automatic interval of wiping approximately every 15 minutes. This only lasts for a fraction of a second and allows the camera to calibrate itself for the best possible image in accordance with the ambient temperature.

Never apply power to the camera unless all connections are terminated correctly. Never disconnect the DC ground for any reason whilst the camera is powered up.

When the camera has completed its boot-up routine, a text overlay table will appear in the screen displaying the camera address, protocol, baud rate and current ﬁrmware version. You will also notice the positional indicator icon in the bottom left hand corner of the screen and the zoom bar at the center bottom of the screen. When this message appears the camera is ready to use and you are able to control the device.

7.01 Controlling the Camera

Your camera features positional controls and extended features. Positional features such as Pan, Tilt and Zoom are usually controlled via a compatible joystick controller, such as the IRIS516 or IRIS507 controllers or via a compatible MFD / ChartPlotter - sometimes via touch-screen controls depending on the make and model. Third party control methods may differ from Iris controllers. For details of compatible third party control interfaces please contact Iris Innovations. Control of extended features depends on the type of controller you are using, but is usually accessed via a menu system on the controller or third party device (MFD / Chart-plotter etc). If using a third party control interface consult the relevant user documentation for the speciﬁc equipment for details.

A list of feature commands is included at the end of this document.

Set-Up Features

The following features will only usually be called during the initial set-up of the camera following installation:

• VIdeo Standard Set-up.

! PAL / NTSC

When changing the video standard, power the unit down and then reboot for the adjustment to take place.

• Video Orientation

! UP / DOWN / UP+MIRROR / DOWN+MIRROR

Setting the vertical orientation (UP or DOWN) is determined by the orientation of the camera (Standard = UP / Hanging (also known as Ball Down) = DOWN). The mirror option is usually only used when the camera is facing aft, and is usually only applied to ﬁxed cameras, as with a PTZ camera such as the 216 or 316, the camera pan position is frequently changing. Video orientation can however easily be ʻﬂippedʼ as required with the IRIS516 controller.

• Set Home Position

This feature lets you set the home position of the camera following install. Usually this is aligned with the bow of the boat. This calibrates the positional indicator with the direction of the camera.

Proportional Speed Control (Pan / Tilt / Zoom)

IRIS216/316 Thermal Cameras feature extremely accurate multi-speed control with a Proportional Speed function that acts like a gear in order to automatically control speed ratios in accordance with the current level of zoom. The further the camera is zoomed in, the slower it will pan and tilt when commanded and vice versa. This greatly improves control accuracy when zoomed in.

Auto-Flip

When the camera is tilted past its azimuth the Auto-Flip feature is triggered. This automatically pans the camera through 180˚ at full speed (Proportional Control is disabled during this procedure) to the original pan position and continues the tilt movement as long as the camera is still being tilted. This corrects the orientation of the camera module as if the unit kept tilting past the azimuth without the automatic correction, the module would be upside down.

Extended Features

Colour Palette Select:

Iris 216 / 316 Thermal Cameras feature multiple colour palettes which can be used in different conditions and situations to enhance the image.

• Monochrome (White Hot)

• Red Scale (Red Hot)

• Green Scale (Green Hot)

• Blue Scale (Blue Hot)

• Iron Bow

• Rainbow

• Hot Metal

• High Contrast

• Isotherm

Colour Palette Inverse:

The polarity of the 9 palettes above is reversible providing a total of 18 colour palettes.

Scene Mode Select:

5 different preset ʻScene Modesʼ are provided to enhance the image in the following conditions:

• Day Mode

! Default mode. Handles wide thermal dynamic range ! while maintaining optimum picture quality.

• Night Mode

! Normal level/span. Suitable to provide veriﬁcation of ! vessels/buoys observed with radar or navigation lights. ! The camera handles hot objects in the ! scene i.e vessel ! exhausts and personnel on board decks (of other ! vessels being viewed), without loosing ! deta i l o f low ! contrast areas.

• Marina Mode

! Ability to distinguish low contrast objects i.e. marina

! pontoons, moorings etc. without hot objects in the ﬁeld ! of view affecting picture i.e. persons, vehicles on-shore/ ! dock or heat from power boats engines.

• Man-Over-Board Mode

! Maximum sensitivity and discrimination of low contrast

! targets/objects. Hot spot tracker (MOB) enabled.

• Fog Mode

! Maximum sensitivity and discrimination of low contrast

! targets/objects.

Video Pause

Freezes / Unfreezes the image in order to study an on screen artifact.

Non Uniformity Correction Control (NUC)

Manually operates shutter in order to recalibrate the thermal sensitivity. When the shutter closes, the camera re-calibrates itʼs temperature threshold to the uniform temperature of the shutter. No n U ni formity Correction (or NUCʼing) a ls o o cc ur s automatically to maintain a sharp image.

User Presets

The camera has a built in memory that can be used to store up to 100 user ʻpresetʼ positions. A preset allows you to move the camera to a favourite or important position and learn that position so that the camera can be instructed to move at top speed to that position at the touch of a button. For example, you may want to point the camera so that itʼs facing directly aft so you can take a look at whatʼs coming up behind you. By saving this position as a Preset, you can send the camera back to this position immediately by recalling the preset. Presets can also be used to form ʻToursʼ, where the camera can be instruction to step through each preset within the Tour in sequence with a predetermined dwell time between each position.

User presets are numbered 100-199. Usually the controller you are using will have the ability to SET a Preset to learn the position and then CALL a Preset to send the camera to that position. This will depend on the model of controller you are using. Consult the user guide of your controller for details.

System Presets

Certain functions of the camera that are not deﬁned by the Pelco-D Protocol are called by using Presets. A list of System Presets can be found later in this document.

Scan Modes

The camera supports 4 different Scan Modes. Once activated, tilt and zoom commands are still accepted by the camera but you will not be able to pan the camera until the Scan has been Stopped:

• 45˚ Auto Scan

! Camera pans back and forth 22.5˚ either side of the ! centre point (the position the camera is facing when the ! scan is activated.

• 90˚ Auto Scan

! Camera pans back and forth 45˚ either side of the

! centre point (the position the camera is facing when the ! scan is activated.

• 180˚ Auto Scan

! Camera pans back and forth 90˚ either side of the

! centre point (the position the camera is facing when the ! scan is activated.

• 360˚ Auto Scan

! Camera pans continuously through 360˚, pausing every

! 108˚.

There are three speed controls for each Scan. Slow, Medium and Fast.

A command is also available to ʻRe-Centreʼ the scan. This can be found in the command list.

Tours

A tour is a group of 10 user preset positions that are linked together so that when activated, the camera will sequence to each position with a 5 second dwell time between each preset. There are 4 Tour patterns available. Each tour uses a range of dedicated presets which must be set. Any unused presets wonʼt be included in the tour. Reserved Tour presets are listed here:

Tou r 1

Preset Range 40 ~ 49

(Preset 84 Activates Tour 1)

Tou r 2

Preset Range 50 ~ 59

(Preset 85 Activates Tour 2)

Tou r 3

Preset Range 60 ~ 69

(Preset 86 Activates Tour 3)

Tou r 4

Preset Range 70 ~ 79

(Preset 87 Activates Tour 4)
