The Spectra® IV SE Horizon is Pelco's premier look up integrated dome system. This system features a high resolution
camera/optics package with configurable dome drive software and the ability to view scenes 18 degrees above the
horizon.
With the ability to view scenes above the horizon, the Spectra IV SE Horizon dome system can be installed in many
locations:
•Stadiums: Looking into upper levels from a lower level
•Buildings located on hillsides: Looking up and down an adjacent street
•Airports: Tracking incoming and departing aircraft
This manual is designed primarily to be a reference tool for the operation and configuration of your system. Inside you will
find information about features and commands, as well as a detailed menu tree and a quick start guide. Refer to
Installation on page 8 for information required to set up and install the dome drive. Please thoroughly familiarize yourself
with the information in this manual before installing and using your system.

SWITCH SETTINGS
Before installing the dome drive, configure the receiver address, termination, and baud setting. The DIP switches used to
configure these settings are located on the base of the dome drive.
Figure 1 shows the default settings for the DIP switches. Switch SW1-1 (SW1, switch 1) is set to the ON position. All other
switches are set to the OFF position.
Refer to the following sections to set the address, termination, and baud settings for the dome drive.

Figure 1. Default Switch Settings
SW1: RECEIVER ADDRESS
Set the SW1 switches for the address of the dome drive. The following information is required to set the dome drive
address:
Pelco P-type control: The default address is 2. Refer to Table E on page 70 for address settings that use Pelco P-type
control. The maximum number of receivers is 32.
Pelco D-type control: The default address is 1. Refer to Table F on page 71 for address settings that use Pelco D-type
control. The maximum number of receivers is 254.
SW2 SWITCH 1: AD-32 PRESET SYSTEM
SW2-1 should be set to the ON position if an AD-32 controller and Pelco’s TXB-AD translator board are used to control the
dome system.
SW2 SWITCH 2: CM9502 SETTING
If a CM9502 matrix system is used with the dome drive, set SW2-2 to the ON position.
8C3434M-C (8/11)
SW2 SWITCH 3: CONTROL SYSTEM COMPATIBILITY
Coaxial Control Systems
Although Spectra IV/Spectra IV SE dome systems can operate with coaxial control systems from many manufacturers, the
system is designed for optimal performance with Pelco Coaxitron® control products within the length specified for coaxial
cable.
To compensate for coaxial control systems from other manufacturers, Pelco has provided DIP switch SW2-3. Setting
SW2-3 to the ON position may improve dome control with these control systems.
If you are using a Pelco Coaxitron controller, leave SW2-3 in the default OFF position.
Notes:
•This coaxial control system compatibility feature is available for dome drive revisions A0 (zero) and later for
Spectra IV Horizon dome drives. The revision number can be found on the barcode label on the top of the dome drive.
Software version 1.090 and later indicates this mode is available by placing an asterisk next to the switch number in
the Dip Switch Information menu.
•In some configurations, Pelco CM9502 Series matrix systems use nonstandard Coaxitron commands for functions like
pattern playback. If you experience problems with these functions, set SW2-3 to the ON position.
Pelco P Protocol Control Systems
To compensate for Pelco P protocol control systems from other manufacturers, set SW2-3 to the ON position. This may
improve dome control with some of these control systems.
SW2 SWITCHES 4 AND 5: SERIAL PORT SETTINGS
RS-422 Setting (Default)
SW2-4 and SW2-5 should both be set to the OFF position for the RS-422 setting.
For control, only two wires should be connected to the RX– and RX+ connectors on the circuit board inside the back box.
For bidirectional control, four wires should be connected to the RX–, RX+, TX–, and TX+ connectors on the circuit board
inside the back box.
RS-485, 4-Wire Setting
SW2-4 should be set to the OFF position and SW2-5 should be set to the ON position if a 4-wire serial port connection is
used with RS-485.
Note: This setting is most commonly used with Pelco Endura® systems.
RS-485, 2-Wire Setting
SW2-4 and SW2-5 should both be set to the ON position if a 2-wire serial port connection is used with RS-485.
This setting is used to allow the Spectra dome system to transmit and receive commands on the same pair of wires. Only
two wires should be connected to the RX– and RX+ connectors on the circuit board inside the back box.
C3434M-C (8/11)9
SW2 SWITCHES 6 TO 8: BAUD SETTINGS
Pelco D-type controllers are set for 2400 baud. The default setting for the dome drive is 2400 baud. If you are using a
Pelco D-type controller, do not reset SW2 switches 1 to 3 or SW2 switches 6 to 8.
Pelco P-type controllers can operate at 2400, 4800, and 9600 baud. Set the SW2 switches (6, 7, and 8), located on the base
of the dome drive, to the same baud as the Pelco P-type controller.

SW2 Switch 9: Coaxial/UTP Cable
SW2-9 should be set to the OFF position (default) if you are using coaxial cable. If you are using unshielded twisted pair
(UTP) cable, set SW2-9 to the ON position.
SW2 Switch 10: Termination Setting
When connecting more than one Spectra IV SE Horizon dome system to a single controller, terminate the unit farthest from
the controller. Termination is only required for the last dome in the series.
The dome drive is shipped from the factory in the unterminated (OFF) position. To terminate the dome drive, set SW2-10 to
the ON position.
®
Note: Dome termination is not required for Coaxitron
control.

AUTO FOCUS
Auto focus allows the lens to remain in focus during zoom-in, zoom-out, and motion functions.
There are two auto focus settings:
ON (default): If auto focus mode is set to ON, the camera will focus automatically when using pan, tilt, and zoom (PTZ)
functions.
OFF: Focus is operated manually. To focus, press the Focus Far or Focus Near button on the controller.
Sure Focus
When sure focus is enabled and all pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ) motions are stopped, the camera attempts to find a fixed focus
position and lock to an object in the scene. If a focus lock is acquired or a specific amount of time has expired with no
focus lock, the focus position remains fixed until PTZ operation resumes.
Note: If auto focus is OFF, sure focus is disabled and hidden from the menu.
PT Focus Lock
Pan/tilt (PT) focus lock holds the focus position of the lens during PTZ to maintain accurate focus between scenes,
especially during the execution of presets and in low-light scenes. There are two settings:
ON: PT focus lock is enabled.
OFF (default): PT focus lock is disabled.
ZOOM LIMIT
Zoom limit allows the user to define a limitation on the amount of telephoto zoom. The settings vary depending on camera
model.The default setting is 70X. Cameras with 420X zoom (35X optical zoom and 12X digital zoom) can be set for 35X,
70X, 140X, 280X, 350X, or 420X
ZOOM SPEED
Zoom speed allows the user to define the speed at which the dome will go from full wide zoom to the35X optical zoom.
Available zoom speed settings include the following options:
HIGH: 3.2 seconds
MEDIUM (default): 4.6 seconds
LOW: 6.6 seconds
Note: When using the HIGH setting, the image may be out of focus until zooming stops.
