2. Preface

Congratulations for the purchasing of the world most compact PTZ (Pan, Tilt and Zoom) camera. The camera is designed and manufactured not just to meet the requirements for traditional CCTV and modern digital surveillance, but also increase the systems’ overall performance.
This camera line incorporates high resolution color CCD, with two types of lens available: power zoom or vari-focal. Some image and special effect functions are related to the type of lens, while other functions are the same across the line.
The PT mechanism provides controllable panning (360 auto-rotation (180
o
) functions, giving users the capability to manipulate the camera for precise locating on target. The built-in micro-controller allows users to program up to 64 presets for quick and accurate capture to specific view positions. Moving speed, ranging from 0.25 to 300 degrees per second and is selectable to controller, is variable in 16 optional levels. Dwell time of each view position is also selectable from 1second up to 255 seconds.
System function includes I/O for alarm function for intrusion management, ID
(maximum to 128) and impedance matching option for multiple node
setup system, 3 control protocols, 3 options of baud rates, RS-485 communication format. This device is driven by DC12V power. It can be controlled by keyboard, PC, video server or standalone DVR.
For the power zoom version, a number of image related functions (such as DSP functions, lens functions, special effects of video…) are managed via OSD (On-Screen-Display) menu. These functions are explained in the section of OSD with details. The CCD can be set up for automatic switching to black-white mode for night-vision ready when illumination is low.
This camera is designed to be water-resistant for outdoor use, under the condition of normal temperature range from -10 outdoor housing is also available for severe weather condition (extreme low or high temperature environment).

4.2 DIP switches

Overview of DIP switches
There are three sets of DIP switch on board for different setup purposes.

DS1 8 Protocol / baud rate setup DS2 8 Device ID setup DS3 2 Network impedance
Refer to the picture on below for DIP switch locations.
In the following paragraphs are the detail descriptions of the three main setups the installer must do, before hardware mounting and cabling work should begin.

4.3 Set Up Device ID Number

To build correct network for control communication, every speed dome camera in the network must have an unique ID number 8-bit DIP switch DS2.
Note: Factory default of device ID is 1
Find 8-bit DIP switch DS2 on the PC board
DS2
Refer to the tables in the next two pages for ID setting (the tables will show the
relation between pin assignments of DIP switch and ID numbers 1 to 128)
Since the highest ID of this camera is 128, maintain the bit number 8 in OFF
position all the time.
All the speed domes in a network must have their unique ID. It is highly
recommended to installers, for future maintenance and users’ convenience, to mark the ID of each camera onto its corresponding location on the site map, and make out a list of cameras with their ID numbers.
The DS2 pin assignment for ID setup is in binary format.

4.4 Control Protocol and Baud Rate

Control protocol and baud rate must be set correctly in the dome camera in order to establish proper control communication between the camera and control device. Be sure that the same protocol and baud rate must be implemented in control device, too. 3 types of protocol and 3 levels of baud rate are provided b y this speed dome, through an 8-bit DIP switch labeled DS1.
First, installer needs to choose a communication protocol with bit number 3, 4
DS 1
and 5. Watch that the same protocol is chosen for speed dome and controller. The following table shows the three protocols provided in this speed dome.
Check what are available in the controller before choosing the protocol.
remark:
1. “--“ means to set the bit to “OFF” position
2. Bit 1 and 2 are for baud rate setup
3. Bit 3, 4 and 5 are for protocol selection
4. Bit 6 is reserved future use
5. Bit 7 is for firmware upgrade
6. Bit 8 is for cooling fan on / off switching

4.5 RS-485 Network and Impedance

Transmission distances of RS-485 Bus
The 0.56mm (24AWG) twisted pair or higher grade wires are recommended for data transmission cable. The maximum theoretical transmitting distances, for the AWG#24, are as follows:
Baud Rate Maximum Transmitting Distance
2400 Bps 1800m 4800 Bps 1200m
9600Bps 800m
If user selects thinner cables, or installs the dome in an environment with strong electromagnetic interference, or connects lots of equipment to the RS-485 bus, the maximum transmitting distance will be decreased. To increase the maximum transmitting distance, do the contrary, i.e. use thicker wire and keep the cable away from the interference.
Connection and termination resistor
The RS-485 standard requires a daisy-chain connection among the equipments. There must be termination resistors of proper impedance (typically 120 ohms, within the range from 90 to 250 ohms) at both ends of the connection.

Impedance setup for the speed dome
Each speed dome camera has a termination resistor built in. In a network of RS-485 chain, the speed domes are classified in two categories: end unit (such as the #31) and node (such as #1 through #30). To set up the resistor correctly, installer must decide if the specific dome camera is the termination device or not, i.e. if it is at the end of the RS-485 chain. The impedance setup is provided by the bit 1 and bit 2 of DIP switch

Impedance of the control unit
This is generally for two cases: controller with RS-485, and controller with RS-232. Controller with RS-485: Most keyboard and video server in market have RS-485, which are equipped with termination resistor to drive a RS-485 system. But most PC and notebook sort of devices have RS-232 or USB port but no RS-485. Therefore, for PC system, a RS-232 or USB to RS-485 converter is required. So installer must check out if the converter has proper termination resistor.
Problems in practical connection
In some circumstances user adopts a star configuration in practical connection. The termination resistors must be connected to the two equipment that are farthest away from each other, such as equipment 1# and 15# in the following picture. As the star configuration is not in conformity with the requirements of RS-485

standards, problems such as signal reflections, lower anti-interference performance
RS-485 distributor
arise when the cables are long in the connection. The reliabilit y of control signals could be downgraded with the phenomena that the dome does not respond to or just responds at intervals to the controller, or does continuous operation without stop
In such circumstances the usage of RS-485 distributor is recommended. The distributor can change the star configuration connection to the mode of connection stipulated in the RS-485 standards. The new connection achieves reliable data transmission.
