OPERATING NOTES

ENVIRONMENTAL RANGE

The operating temperature ranges from a minimum of -50°F (-45°C) to a maximum of 122°F (50°C) for sustained system operation or 140°F (60°C) absolute maximum. The entire unit can de-ice and be operational in two hours from a temperature of -13°F (-25°C). The thermostatically controlled heater consumes 10 watts and cycles on at 70°F (21°C) and off at 85°F (29°C), while the window defroster

runs continuously and consumes 2.5 watts.

PAN AND TILT FUNCTIONS

Controller Pan Tilt

Type (Capability – 360° Continuous Pan Rotation)** (Viewing Range – +33° to -83°)***

Fixed speed Speed determined by controller Speed determined by controller

*Variable speed 0.1 to 40° per second, depending on joystick and 0.1 to 20° per second, depending on joystick and zoom

*Turbo Mode 100° per second Does not affect the tilt speed *Preset Mode 100° per second 30° per second

* 50 mph wind-speed profile.

** If manual limit stops are set, “Pan Limit” appears on your monitor when a limit stop is reached (except when you are programming or

running a pattern). This does not apply to scan limit stops.

*** When the system reaches the upper limit, “Tilt Limit” appears on your monitor (except when you are programming or running a

pattern).

zoom positions positions

If the proportional pan mode is enabled (refer to the 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. The minimum pan and tilt speeds are 0.1 degree per second at full zoom.

Proportional Pan

in the

Programming

section), the pan and tilt speeds will depend on

SCAN SPEED

Scan speed is adjustable from 1 to 40 degrees per second through the programming menu.

PRESET FUNCTIONS

The Esprit® system is capable of going to 64 preset locations, each with a 20-character label. The presets are numbered 1-32 and 35-66. Refer to the documentation for your control system for programming presets.

If you command the pan and tilt 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 system 180 degrees. Preset 34 is the “pan zero” command, which will pan the system to the factory-determined zero reference point.

RANDOM, FRAME, AND AUTO SCANNING

Select preset 97 (30) to start random scanning. Select preset 98 (31) to activate frame scanning (three seconds of scanning followed by a three-second pause). Select preset 99 (32) to start auto (continuous) scanning. Scan limit stops are controlled by software. Refer to the

Limit Stops

When the pan and tilt reaches a scan limit stop, it reverses direction. Select preset 96 (29) to stop a scan. Any pan and tilt or lens command also will stop a scan.

section to program the scan limit stops.

ZONES

A zone is a programmed pan area with set boundaries and identifying label. The Esprit system has a maximum of eight zones, each with a 20-character label. Zones can be programmed to blank video when the camera pans into the zone area. If a zone is blanked, the system displays the message, VIDEO BLANK. (Refer to

C309M-J (9/04) 7

Zone Blank

in the

Programming

section for instructions.)

PATTERNS

The Esprit system 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, digital zoom, proportional pan, and turbo are not allowed in a pattern. Zones can be enabled while running a pattern. Refer to the documentation for your control system to program and run patterns.

PARK

If the system does not receive any commands for a specified period of time (refer to the preset 1 and parks. If the time specified is zero, or if preset 1 has not been programmed, the pan and tilt will not park.

Park Time Minutes

section), the system goes to

IR FILTER (MODELS ES30CBW18 AND ES31CBW18 ONLY)

The ES30CBW18 and ES31CBW18 models have an IR (infrared) lens filter that can switch in and out, automatically or manually, depending on how the system is programmed. When the filter is IN, the camera produces a color picture. When the IR filter switches OUT, the picture changes to black and white, increasing visibility in low light conditions.

The Auto IR Level setting controls automatic operation of the filter. To manually override automatic operation, use presets 88 (filter IN) and 89 (filter OUT). The unit will remain in manual control until it is panned or tilted more than 15 degrees.

LOW LIGHT does not mean NO LIGHT. Some type of illumination is required (street light, IR light, etc.).

AUTO IRIS

If auto iris is in the auto mode, it remains that way until you manually open or close the iris. The system will return to auto iris when it is panned or tilted more than 15 degrees.

WIPER

The ES31C Series features a window wiper to clear moisture from the enclosure glass. There are two modes of operation for the wiper, momentary and continuous. The wiper mode is easily set up through on-screen programming (refer to the

Wiper Mode

section).

To operate the wiper do the following:

Momentary Mode – To operate the wiper one full cycle, press the AUX 1 button on your controller. Each press of the button operates the

wiper one full cycle, even if the AUX 1 button is latching. If AUX 1 is latching, the first press will activate the wiper (open the latch). Pressing AUX 1 a second time closes the latch, but will not cycle the wiper. Press the AUX 1 key again to cycle the wiper.

Continuous Mode – To operate the wiper press the AUX 1 button on your controller. The wiper will continue to operate until the AUX 1

button is pressed again or until the programmed cycle is completed.

NOTE: CM9740 and CM9760 Matrix Systems Only – For the wiper to operate in continuous mode, the AUX 1 function in the camera file must be set to latching. If the AUX 1 camera file is not latching, the wiper will only operate in momentary mode, even if the Esprit wiper is programmed for continuous operation. Refer to the operation manual supplied with the CM9740 or CM9760 matrix system for instructions.

OPEN COLLECTOR AUXILIARY OUTPUT

An AUX 2 command from the controller will activate a device, such as a relay. The output will remain active for two seconds and then deactivate, even if the controller is set to latching mode.

Examples of devices that can be used with AUX 2 are a washer assembly (not supplied by Pelco) or a latching relay (not supplied by Pelco) attached to control a gate, lights, etc.

If a relay is used it must require less than 32 VDC and 40 mA to trigger the relay coil. The relay must be placed within 100 feet (30 m) of the Esprit unit.
