Wiring
Refer to Figure 12 or 13 to attach the wiring to the interconnect circuit board inside the back
box. Also refer to Figure 8 or 9 if necessary.
1.Earth Ground - Connect earth ground to the middle connector on the power
connector.
2.Power - Connect 24 VAC from the transformer to the outer terminals on the power
connector. It does not matter which lead goes to which terminal.
If you are wiring more than one dome from the same transformer, it is important to
wire the power connector in each dome the same way. That is, the wiring from one
side of the transformer must be connected to the same connector on each dome. If
you reverse the wiring, the cameras will be out of phase with each other and may
produce what appears to be vertical roll when switching between cameras. Refer to
Figure 11 for a wiring diagram.
3.Video - Connect the coaxial cable to the BNC video connector.
4.Control - If you are using a Coaxitron® controller, control signals will be transmitted
over the video coax.

The maxi-
Only)
mum output of AUX 2 is 150
mA. If you connect a device
that draws more current,
you could destroy the output
transistor. The output is intended to drive logic circuits
or low-current devices. If
higher current is required,
connect the output to a relay.
CAUTION:
Leave
adequate slack in
the wiring to permit
the door to open without
pulling on the connectors.
5.Heater/Fan - This is a factory connection for a heater on outdoor pendant models.
6.Alarm Inputs - (Spectra II™ Only) If you need alarm inputs, connect them. The
maximum number of alarm inputs is seven. Refer to Figure 8 for a typical wiring
example. Alarm inputs require a ground signal through a contact closure, such as a
switch.
7.AUX 1 - (Spectra II™ Only) An AUX 1 command from the controller will activate
the relay output. If you need the relay, wire it as required. Refer to Figure 8. The relay
contacts are shown when AUX 1 is inactive. When an AUX 1 command is issued, the
relay contacts will reverse and remain latched until a clear command is issued.
8.AUX 2 - (Spectra II™ Only) An AUX 2 command from the controller will place a
ground at the output of AUX 2 to operate the device connected to it. The output will
remain latched until a clear command is issued. If you need the AUX 2 output, wire it
as required. Refer to Figure 8 for typical wiring examples. The AUX 2 output is an
open collector transistor driver that can pass a maximum of 150 mA at 32 VDC. It is
capable of driving TTL logic circuits or low-current reed relays. If you use an external
relay, make sure that both the supply voltage and the current requirements are well
below the maximum of 32 VDC and 150 mA. Exceeding these values will cause
permanent damage to the dome. If you are not familiar with open collector drive
requirements, contact Pelco technical support for assistance.

NOTE:
The dome will stop
operating if the voltage at
the dome drops below 18
VAC. It will turn back on and
go through its start-up routine when the voltage exceeds 18 VAC.
POWER-UP DISPLAY
When the Spectra II™ dome or Spectra Lite™ dome is powered up or reset, the selected
protocol, revision number, and other information is displayed on the monitor. For example,
the screen might show the following information:
PELCO SPECT II 4.0
CONFIGURE DONE
Protocol C
The information remains on the monitor until the dome is moved. The information displayed
depends on the selected protocol and the choice made on the menu for selectable powerup mode, a feature that lets the dome resume a desired condition upon power-up. As a
default, the dome goes to a random position. (Refer to the
The control system protocol (C, D, or P) appears. C is for Pelco’s Coaxitron® control
systems. D-type control is RS-422 that is compatible with Pelco’s CM6700, MPT9500 and
CM8500 controllers or with American Dynamics control systems using the AD2083
Translator. P-type control is RS-422 that is compatible with Pelco’s CM6700 and CM9750/
CM9760 control systems.
For the D and P protocols, the device address, baud rate, parity (N), number of data bits
(8), and number of stop bits (1) appears. For the D protocol, if the mode for 32 presets is
selected (SW1-7 is ON), “32 presets” appears.
If the CM9500 mode is selected (SW1-8 is ON), “CM9500 mode” appears.
PAN AND TILT FUNCTIONS
Power-Up Mode
section).
Use the joystick on your controller to control pan and tilt functions.
Pan and tilt operation is at a fixed speed with fixed-speed controllers. The speed is
determined by the controller.
Standard pan operation with variable-speed controllers will range from 0.5 to 80 degrees
per second, depending on the position of the joystick. In the turbo mode, pan speed will be
150 degrees per second. When performing preset operations, pan speed will be 250
degrees per second.
Standard tilt operation with variable-speed controllers will range from 0.5 to 40 degrees per
second, depending on the position of the joystick. When performing preset operations, tilt
speed will be 200 degrees per second. Turbo mode does not affect the tilt speed.
(Spectra II™ Only) If the proportional pan mode is enabled (refer to the
Pan
section), the pan (and tilt) speed will depend on the amount of zoom. At telephoto
zoom settings, the pan (and tilt) speeds will be slower for a given amount of joystick
deflection than at wide zoom settings. This keeps the image from moving too fast on the
monitor when there is a large amount of zoom. This slowing does not happen when going
to a preset, but does occur in turbo mode when high zoom is selected.
Proportional
AUTO FLIP
When the camera tilts downward and goes just beyond the vertical position, the dome
rotates 180 degrees. When the dome rotates (flips), the camera starts moving upward as
long as you continue to hold the joystick in the down position. Once you let go of the
joystick after the dome rotates, joystick control returns to normal operation. The auto-flip
feature is useful for following a person who passes directly beneath the camera.
You can disable this feature in the auto flip programming menu. Refer to

PRESET FUNCTIONS
The Spectra II™ dome is capable of going to 64 preset locations, each with a 20-character
label. The presets are numbered 1-32 and 35-66. The Spectra Lite™ dome can go to 32
presets. The presets are numbered 1-32.
Refer to the documentation for your control system for programming presets.
When a preset operation is performed, the amount of error in moving to the pan and tilt
position is 1/2 degree. If you command the dome to go to an undefined preset, erratic
operation may result.
Presets 33 and 34 are fixed commands, meaning that you cannot program them. Preset 33
is the “flip” command, which will pan the dome drive 180 degrees from the position it is at.
Preset 34 is the “pan zero” command, which will direct the dome drive to the factorydetermined zero reference point.
The following presets are reserved for special functions. (An asterisk denotespresets that apply to Spectra II only.)

Changing the length
erases all stored patterns.
Scan limit stops are controlled by software. Refer to the
scan limit stops.
When the dome reaches a scan limit stop, it will immediately reverse direction.
Program preset 96 (29) to stop a scan. Any pan/tilt or lens command also will stop a scan.
ZONES
(This section applies to Spectra II™ only.)
The Spectra II™ dome is capable of eight zones, each with a 20-character label. Depend-
ing on the controller, you can define the zone size and define any zone as “blanked” for
video when the camera pans into the zone area. If zone labels are turned off, the system
displays the message VIDEO BLANK to indicate the video is being blanked and is not
failing. (Refer to the
ming zones, refer to the documentation for your control system.
PATTERNS
(This section applies to Spectra II™ only.)
The Spectra II™ dome can do either one full pattern (1.5, 3, or 6 minutes long) or two half
patterns (.75, 1.5, or 3 minutes long). This pattern can consist of any standard pan and tilt
or lens command. Presets, flip, and turbo are not allowed in a pattern. Zone scan can be
enabled while running a pattern.
Refer to the documentation for your control system to program and run patterns.

section to program the
(This section applies to Spectra II™ only.)
The Spectra II™ dome has seven alarm inputs, which can be designated as either high or
low priority through its programming menu. When an alarm is received, the dome does one
of the following:
•Moves to the preset position that corresponds to the alarm number. For example, if
alarm 3 is activated, the dome moves to preset 3.
•Runs a half pattern or full pattern as programmed in the Alarm Pattern submenu.
If any of presets 1-7 are not used for alarms, they can be used as regular presets.
However, if they are being used for alarms, they should not be used for anything else.
If an alarm input is programmed to run a pattern, the corresponding preset can be used as
a regular preset. For example, if alarm 3 is programmed to run a pattern, preset 3 can be
used as a regular preset.
There is no indication at the controller that an alarm has been received, other than the view
displayed on the monitor.
The high priority setting (if set on the programming menu) is significant when more than
one alarm is activated. If priority in alarms is not required, leave all alarms in the low setting.
•If the activated alarm inputs have the same priority–all low or all high–then the
dome will sequence between the presets that correspond to the alarm numbers.
•If the activated alarm inputs have different priorities–for example, one is high and
four are low–the dome goes only to the high. It remains fixed on the high and only
goes to the low after the high has been cleared.
26Pelco Manual C1487M-D (7/99)
Page 27
In certain situations, the dome will respond as follows:
•If a preset has not been set, but an alarm is connected: the dome will go to a factory
preset that will not be the desired position.
•If one alarm is a preset and another is a pattern and both are received: the dome will
alternate between them.
An alarm clears by returning to its former (off) state.
Depending on choices made on the programming menu, the dome can respond to an alarm
by running one of the patterns below. (Refer to the
•Run full pattern
•Run half pattern 1
•Run half pattern 2
When sequencing between presets, the dwell time depends on the time set on the Alarm
Dwell submenu for that preset. After the dwell time expires, the dome immediately does
one of the following:
•If the resume feature was selected on the programming menu and there are no other
alarms activated, the dome resumes its prior activity. So, it might return to its previous
position or resume a scan or pattern.
•If there are other alarms activated, the dome goes to them.
If you move the joystick to pan or tilt the dome, or if you issue a lens command while there
is an alarm, the pan and tilt or lens command overrides the alarm. Sixty seconds after the
last pan and tilt or lens command, the dome will return to the alarm preset if the alarm is
still active.
Patterns

AUXILIARY OUTPUTS
(This section applies to Spectra II™ only.)
An AUX 1 command from the controller will activate the relay in the dome and operate the
device that is connected to the relay. The relay will remain latched until a clear command is
issued.
An AUX 2 command from the controller will place a ground at the output of AUX 2 to
operate the device that is connected to it. The output will remain latched until a clear
command is issued. Refer to the
the use of the AUX 2 output.
The output relay can also be programmed so that it is activated when any alarm input is
activated. When latching (toggling) is selected on the programming menu, giving the AUX 1
command from the controller changes the state of the AUX (for example, if it was on, this
turns it off.) The clear command from the controller will turn the AUX off in the latching or
toggle mode.
PARK
If the dome does not receive any commands for a specified period of time (refer to the

BACK BOX ELECTRONIC ASSEMBLY REMOVAL
To remove the back box electronic assembly:
1.Turn off power.
2.Open the interconnect door and disconnect all wiring to the back box.
3.Use an 11/32 socket driver to remove the three 8-32 washers and nuts that hold the
electronic assembly to the back box. When the screws are removed, the interconnect
back box receptacle will drop down. It may be necessary to move the open interconnect door past 90 degrees vertical toward the side of the back box to release the door
from the built-in grounding strip (and free the interconnect back box receptacle).
4.Remove the interconnect back box receptacle with the electronic components from the
back box.
MAINTENANCE
DOME CLEANING
Clean the acrylic dome as necessary to maintain a clear picture. Be careful not to scratch
the surfaces of the dome.
Exterior Surface - Clean the dome's exterior surface with a nonabrasive cleaning cloth
and cleaning agent that is safe for acrylic. Either liquid or spray cleaner/wax suitable for fine
furniture is acceptable.
Interior Surface (Except Chrome or Gold) - Clean the same as the exterior surface.
Interior Surface (Chrome or Gold) - The inside surface of a chrome or gold dome is
easily scratched. Use the following precautions to maintain the dome's surface.
a.Always handle the dome from the outside of its circular flange.
b.Never touch the coated inside surface. The acid in your fingerprints will eventually
etch the coating if the fingerprints are not carefully removed according to the recommended cleaning procedure in item “e”.
c.If dust or other contaminants accumulate on the dome's interior, remove the debris
with compressed air. Compressed air cans are available from photographic equipment
or electronic supply dealers.
d.If heavy residue accumulates and cannot be removed with air pressure, rinse with
water and immediately dry with air pressure so that water spots will not remain. Avoid
wiping the coated surface with direct hand pressure - it will easily abrade unless
extreme care is taken. Once scratched, the dome cannot be recoated.
e.If internal wiping is necessary, avoid hand rubbing. Instead, make a wick as follows:
Use a very soft paper towel. Roll a section into a tightly wound tube. Tear the tube in
half, and wet the fuzzy end of the wick with a solution of isopropyl alcohol diluted with
water. Hold the dome with its opening facing downward and wipe the interior of the
dome with the wet end of the wick. Use a circular motion, starting from the outside and
spiraling into the center. Use a new wick for each two passes over the dome.
