RESPONSIBLE FOR INSURING STRICT COMPLIANCE WITH SUCH LAWS AND FOR STRICT ADHERENCE TO ANY/ALL
RIGHTS OF PRIVACY AND PERSONALTY. USE OF THIS EQUIPMENT AND/OR SOFTWARE FOR ILLEGAL

any/all right of privacy and personality.

VIDEO QUALITY CAUTION

FRAME RATE NOTICE REGARDING USER SELECTED OPTIONS

Pelco systems are capable of providing high quality video for both live viewing and playback. However, the systems can be
used in lower quality modes, which can degrade picture quality, to allow for a slower rate of data transfer and to reduce the
amount of video data stored. The picture quality can be degraded by either lowering the resolution, reducing the picture rate,
or both. A picture degraded by having a reduced resolution may result in an image that is less clear or even indiscernible. A
picture degraded by reducing the picture rate has fewer frames per second, which can result in images that appear to jump or
move more quickly than normal during playback. Lower frame rates may result in a key event not being recorded by the
system.

Judgment as to the suitability of the products for users' purposes is solely the users' responsibility. Users shall determine the
suitability of the products for their own intended application, picture rate and picture quality. In the event users intend to use
the video for evidentiary purposes in a judicial proceeding or otherwise, users should consult with their attorney regarding any
particular requirements for such use.

Installation

Install the GFC Professional Multi Series Environmental Dome as shown in the following instructions:

1. Jot down the camera’s MAC address for later reference.

2. Open the door cover by loosening four T10 anti-tamper screws. Hold the camera model still and twist the lower dome
slightly counterclockwise to unlock the hooks and open the camera.

3. With its remote focus lenses, the lens modules can be aiming at different areas at different distances.

7

4. Remove the waterproof connectors. If you do not need to route I/O wires, leave the plastic cap in place. If you need to
connect I/O wires, keep the stainless nut.

5. Attach the alignment sticker to a position you prefer. Drill screw holes and a routing hole. Route cables through the
routing hole and secure the top mounting plate to ceiling by driving the included screws.

8

6. Pass at least CAT5E Ethernet cable through the routing hole.

7. Hook up the tether wire between the camera and the top mounting plate.

8. Pass the Ethernet cable through the components of the waterproof cable gland.

9

9. Remove part of the outer CAT5E or better Ethernet cable jacket and be careful not to damage the internal UTP wires.
Separate out the four pairs of wire and terminate these wires, following the standard TIA/EIA T568B. Make sure the
wires are pushed into the RJ45 plug so that they are fully inserted. Firmly crimp the RJ-45 plug so that the individual
wires and the outer sheath are all fully trapped inside the plug.
Note: Carefully route the ethernet cable under the lens plate (camera base) to avoid any damages to the microphone
pins and/or other exposed components. The picture on step 14 shows the wire routing.

10. Tighten and install the components of the waterproof connector.

10

11. Pass the I/O combo cable (if applied) through the routing hole and attach a rubber seal ring. Install the combo cable
with the white headers inside the camera and tighten the stainless hex nut from the inside of the camera.

12. Connect the white headers to J9 and J14 heads on camera PCM board. Carefully route the cables along the camera
base.

11

1. The DO+ pin provides a 5V output voltage, and the max. load is 50mA.

2. The max. voltage for DO- pins is 30VDC (External power). In order to control AC devices, the above diagram
can be taken in consideration. The diagram uses a relay to control the ON/OFF condition of the AC device.

3. An external relay can be triggered by using DO+ or by an external power source, depending on the type of relay
you use.

4. In case of using an individual relay (instead of using a relay module), for protection against voltage or current
spikes, a transient voltage suppression diode must be connected in parallel with the inductive load.

12

13. On the outside of the cameras, the I/O wires connection should be protected against moisture by using electrical
insulation putty.

14. Install a Micro SD card if applicable.

15. When the Ethernet and I/O wires connection is complete, and the camera is powered up, try to find the camera using
Pelco’s VideoXpert.

16. DoubleClick on the camera’s entry on VMS to open a web console with the camera. A browser session will open. The
program will search for Pelco video receivers, video servers, or network cameras on the same LAN.

17. Use a ground wire (user supplied, with a resistance lower the 4Ω, a diameter larger than 20AWG) and an M4 screw
to connect it to the ground rod.

13

18. Secure the camera to the top mounting plate by using the alignment marks. Align and then rotate the camera
clockwise.

19. When done, the camera will snap in place on the mounting plate.

20. If you are not sure whether the field of view can properly cover the area of your interest, you can check the live view
at the installation site.

21. With a live view displayed on your laptop, you can adjust the lens shooting direction to obtain an optimal field of view.
Check the live view to ensure the image is in focus.

14

22. You can move a lens module from side to side, turn the lens shooting direction up or down, or rotate the module to
cover the area of your interest. Note: Stay within the pan range (180º) and rotation range (±90º each lens). When
adjusting the shooting angle, please avoid touching the exposed circuit board or ribbon cable. Static discharge can
cause damages.

23. Perform necessary adjustments such as the image alignments on the panoramic view from the 4 sensors. Go to
Confirmation>Media>Image>Focus. Zoom in on the individual lens if necessary. The automated focus function can
help you acquire the best image.

15

24. Replace the two desiccant bags on the sides of the camera. Desiccant is used to absorb moisture in the camera.
Replace the desiccant every time you open the dome cover. Note: Do not forget to install the new provided desiccant
bags. Otherwise, condensation might build in the lens. Secure the desiccant packs to the back housing to prevent
them from falling and obstructing the lens field of view.

25. Align the center of the dome cover (the center of the Pelco logo) with the alignment mark on the camera body. Aim
and then turn clockwise. Install the dome cover by fastening the T10 anti-tamper screws. You may need to carefully
route the safety tether aside. Complete the installation by tightening the T10 Screw on the side of the mounting plate
to 9 in-lbs (1.0 Nm). This will ensure the camera is secure in the mounting plate.
