1.5 Function Instructions

 Focus / PTZ Speed Auto Match
The pan/tilt rotation speed could be automatically adjusted according to the focus
in/out, which makes it much more practical for manual target tracking. (Only for
the auto tracking IR speed dome)
 Auto Flip
In manual tracking mode, when a target object goes directly beneath the dome,
the video will automatically flips 180 degrees in horizontal direction to maintain
continuity of tracking. This function can also be realized by auto mirror image
depending on different camera models.

 Preset Position Set up and Call Up

In the Preset function the dome stores the current pan/tilt angle, zoom and other
position parameters in its memory. When necessary the dome recalls these
parameters and adjusts the camera to a particular position. The user can store,
recall and clear the presets easily and promptly by using the keyboard controller.

8

The dome can store up to 220 presets.

 Auto Scan

Users can set up the left and right boundaries by control keyboard. Then speed
dome can scan between these boundaries. It supports up to 8 groups of scanning
paths.

 Cruising Track

The preset position can be programmed to be recalled in a set of sequences. This
sequence can be set to let the camera scan from one position to the next in a cycle
at a set speed. This feature is called the “auto cruise”. The cruise sequence and
dwell time of each preset can be set. It supports up to 8 cruising tracks, each
cruising track with 32 presets.
 Pattern Tour
Dome can memorize 600s running path or 500 programmable instructions. When
start pattern tour, speed dome will move automatically according recorded action
path. It supports 4 groups of pattern tours.
 Guard Location
The dome will automatically return to preset position if there is no operation in a
period of vacant time.
 Default Action
When you start up the dome camera or do not send commands over a long time,
the dome camera will return to its default functions which include the home place,
auto pan, auto cruise and pattern.

 Dome Address Setup

The dome supports up to 256 addresses and the dome will only response to the
instructions given to its own address. Please check the dip switch on the bottom of
the dome for address setup.

 Manual Object Tracking

The use can move the joystick up, down, left or right to track the appearing object
in the screen and use the joystick to zoom in and out with auto focus.

 Privacy Mask Protection

Set black mask areas to protect the privacy zones. The black privacy locations can
be set, and support up to 8 mask zones. This function allows you to block or mask
certain area of a scene, for preventing the personal privacy from recording or live
viewing. A masked area will move with pan and tilt functions and automatically
adjust in size as the lens zooms telephoto and wide.

 Timing Running Function

Users can set speed dome operation task at total 8 timing areas during 7 days.

9

 Coordinates and Directions Display

User can define the dome’s direction of due north, which will help to show
up the exact moving directions on screen. And zone title is supported to
display when the dome moves to the specified zone.

 Auto Tracking

The dome will automatically fix and track the moving object according to the
user’s setup via OSD.

 Motion Detection

The dome will detect the changes in the defined video zone and trigger alarm.
It supports to 8 video Locations, each with 4 detection zones.

 Limit Stops

The dome can be programmed to move within the limit stops (left/right,
up/down).
 Label Display
The on-screen label of the preset title, azimuth/elevation, zoom, time and dome
name can be displayed on the monitor. The displays of time and speed dome
name can be programmed.

 3D Positioning

In the client software, use the left key of mouse to click on the desired position in
the video image and drag a rectangle area in the lower right direction, then the
dome system will move the position to the center and allow the rectangle area to
zoom in. Use the left key of mouse to drag a rectangle area in the upper left
direction to move the position to the center and allow the rectangle area to zoom
out.

 Proportional Pan/Tilt

Proportional pan/tilt automatically reduces or increases the pan and tilt speeds
according to the amount of zoom. At telephoto zoom settings, the pan and tilt
speeds will be slower than at wide zoom settings. This keeps the image from
moving too fast on the live view image when there is a large amount of zoom.

 Auto Focus

The auto focus enables the camera to focus automatically to maintain clear video
images.

 Wide Dynamic Range (WDR)

The wide dynamic range (WDR) function helps the camera provide clear images
even under back light circumstances. When there are both very bright and very
dark areas simultaneously in the field of view, WDR balances the brightness level
of the whole image and provide clear images with details.

10

Note: This feature varies depending on speed dome models.
 Power On Memory
The dome supports the power on memory capability with the predefined resume
time. It allows the dome to resume its previous position after power is restored.
 Scheduled Task
A time task is a preconfigured action that can be performed automatically at a
specific date and time. The programmable actions include: auto scan, patrol
1-8 ,pattern 1-4, preset 1-8,frame scan etc.
 Park Action
This feature allows the dome to start a predefined action automatically after a
period of inactivity.
 3D Digital Noise Reduction
Comparing with the general 2D digital noise reduction, the 3D digital noise
reduction function processes the noise between two frames besides processing the
noise in one frame. The noise will be much less and the video will be clearer.

 PTZ and Lens Control

1) Zoom Control
Users can control zoom by keyboard to get near or far images.

2) Focus Control
The default setting is auto focus. The camera will auto focus based on the center
of the video display to get the clear image. In some special occasions, the user
could do the manual focus to get the desired image effect.

3) Auto Iris Control
Auto Iris is aiming to detect the environmental lights condition and adjust the iris
to get the stabilized brightness of the image.

4) Auto Back Light Compensation
In the highly bright background, auto back light compensation is aiming to
compensate the brightness of the dark object and adjust the background brightness
to get a clear image.

5) Auto/Manual White Balance
Auto/Manual WB adjust depending on the environment light changes.

6) OSD Setup
Call upon preset No.95 to enter into OSD menu setup interface. Press “Focus” to
choose menu items and press “Iris” to set menu contents.
