PRIVATE NETWORK
When using a private network, the PC used to operate the Web browser acts as the server. If a static IP
network is being used rather than a DHCP network, the dome system is assigned a default IP address of
192.168.0.20 on netmask 255.255.0.0.
After the first dome system is plugged in and recognized on a static IP network, you must manually change
the IP address of the dome system before plugging in any additional dome systems. Plugging in a second
dome system before changing the IP address of the first may result in a loss of communication to one or
both of the devices.
Refer to Table A on page 8.
Figure 3. Private Network Example
10 C3446M (7/08)
STATIC NETWORK
When using a static network, the PC used to operate the Web browser must use the same subnet mask as
the dome systems to which it is connected. When the first dome system is plugged into the network, it is
assigned a default IP address of 192.168.0.20 on netmask 255.255.0.0.
After the first dome system is plugged in and recognized on a static IP network, you must manually change
the IP address of the dome system before plugging in any additional dome systems. Plugging in a second
dome system before changing the IP address of the first may result in a loss of communication to one or
both of the devices.
NOTE: For a secure network, Pelco recommends placing the dome behind a firewall.

The Spectra Mini IP is an indoor dome system designed for ceiling applications. The dome can be mounted
to the surface of ceilings, or it can be recessed in hard ceilings or standard 2 x 2 ft (61 x 61 cm) tiles in
suspended ceilings.
SURFACE MOUNT INSTALLATION
1. Prepare the ceiling as follows:
a. Using the surface mount ring as a template, drill holes for the mounting hardware.
• Standard ceiling: When mounting the dome system to a standard ceiling, use either
6-32 toggle bolts (not supplied) or #8 x 3.50-inch self-tapping screws (supplied). Refer
to Figure 5 on page 13.
• Concrete ceiling: When mounting the dome system to a concrete system, use
8-32 studs and nuts (not supplied). Refer to Figure 6 on page 13.
b. Drill a hole in the ceiling for wiring. You do not have to run wiring through the ceiling; you can
fasten the wires to the ceiling and then run the wires through the air gap between the ceiling
and the surface mount ring.
2. Connect the wiring using one of the following options:
• Plug the network cable into the RJ-45 connector on the side of the dome drive.
• If the network has no PoE, connect a 24 VAC Class 2 power supply to the 24 VAC power
connector.
Refer to Figure 10 on page 17 for wiring connections.
3. If you are operating the dome system using 24 VAC and you are wiring more than one dome drive to
the same transformer, connect one side of the transformer to pin 1 of the 2-position terminal block
on all modules. Connect the other side of the transformer to pin 2 of the terminal block on all
modules.
NOTE: Failure to connect all modules identically may introduce noise in the video for some
installations.

Wiring Tables
CAT5 CABLE
Connect a Cat5 cable to the RJ-45 network connector. The 8-pin RJ-45 connector includes video and PoE
for the dome system. PoE (IEEE 802.3af) injects power over the same cabling that carries the network data,
eliminating the need for a separate power supply; this simplifies the installation and operation of the
dome system without any degradation of network performance. Refer to Figure 10 for pin descriptions.

CONNECTING A RELAY DEVICE
The Spectra Mini IP dome system has an output for triggering an external device. It supports both
momentary and continuous relay operation.
You can operate the relay interactively, during an active connection, or automatically to coincide with
certain events. Typical applications include activating a door, gate or lock, or switching on lights or other
electrical devices.
WARNINGS:
• Do not exceed the maximum rating of 12 VDC, 0.15 A.
• The green/white wire is internally connected to the dome chassis. Any connected signaling
device should be left floating with respect to the dome chassis, otherwise damage may result.
Figure 11 on page 18 shows how to wire the relay with its power source to the Spectra Mini IP.

CONNECTING ALARMS
The Spectra Mini IP provides an alarm input for external signaling devices, such as door contacts or motion
detectors. Both normally open and normally closed devices are supported.
SUPERVISED ALARMS
When an alarm is configured as a supervised alarm, Spectra Mini IP maintains a constant electrical
current through the alarm circuit (3.3 VDC, 1 kohm). If the alarm circuit length changes, due to an electrical
short or a bypass, the voltage fluctuates from its normal state. Therefore, the unit triggers an alarm.
NOTE: Install the 1 kohm resistor as close to the switch as possible.
Figure 12 shows the alarm and no alarm conditions of a supervised alarm input. Whether the alarm is
normally closed or normally open, neither a cut nor a bypass can defeat these alarms.
Figure 13 and Figure 14 illustrate the wiring configuration for supervised alarm inputs.

UNSUPERVISED ALARMS
When an alarm is configured as an unsupervised alarm, the dome system only triggers an alarm when the
normal alarm state (normally open or normally closed) changes.
Figure 15 shows the alarm and no alarm conditions of an unsupervised alarm input. A normally closed
alarm input can be defeated with a bypass; a normally open input can be defeated with a cut.
