This symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions.

This symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electrical shock.

INSTALLATION AND OPERATION

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electrical shock do not remove the cover or back of this

unit. No user serviceable parts are inside.

CAUTION: To prevent electric shocks and risk of fire hazards, do not use other than

specified power source.

1. UNPACKING and HANDLING

Each unit is shipped assembled and factory tested. Ensure that all accessories are removed from the container before discarding packing material

2. MECHANICAL INSPECTION

Inspect the front and rear of the equipment for shipping damage. Make sure the equipment is clean, and no connectors are broken, damaged, or loose. If equipment appears to be damaged or defective please contact your distributor or SecurityTronix at 1-610-429-1511 for assistance.

3. SPECIAL ATTENTION

a. The installer must comply with electrical safety standards. There must be sufficient

space between the camera’s power supply and video line and any high voltage

equipment and/or cables.

b. To help ensure the camera’s life and proper operation do not point the camera towards

the sun or strong light. c. Do not install the camera in an environment where the temperature is above 122 F. d. Do not install the camera near a magnetic field or a high-power motor.

g. Only use a dry cloth to clean the camera. If there is dirt that is difficult to remove wipe

gently with a mild detergent. Never use strong or abrasive detergents. h. The included 24VAC at 3A power supply must be used. Using a DC or other incorrect

power supply will damage the camera. i. Only qualified installers are allowed to install, test and disassemble the camera. j. The camera is a low voltage product. If installed outdoors proper safety and lightning

grounding are required. k. Before installing be sure the grounding, wiring, input power, voltage, DIP switches,

communication protocol and baud rate are correctly set prior to powering up and using.

Camera Module Selection

The ST-PTZ550-27 uses the Samsung SDM-270 camera module although various other camera modules may be compatible with the unit. The DIP switch

settings on the camera module’s PCB board are factory

set for the SDM-270 and are not to be adjusted by the installer or user.

5. WIRING CONNECTIONS

a. Connect the power supply cable and communications cable to the AC24V and RS485

connections on the main board as shown above. b. Connect the camera to the monitor with a 75 coaxial video cable. c. Connect power supply’s AC plug to a suitable AC power outlet. d. Make an RS485 connection between the camera and the PTZ controller. Ensure the

7. TROUBLESHOOTING

a. No picture after applying power – (i) check all plugs and cables are securely connected

to the proper connectors; (ii) ensure your power supply is providing the correct voltage

and current. b. The picture has ripples – (i) check to see if the power supply is experiencing AC ripple,

if so a filter may be required; (ii) determine if the monitor is faulty; (iii) determine if other

peripheral equipment is causing ripple and if so make the necessary adjustments. c. The picture background continuously changes color – a fluorescent lamp’s magnetic

field may cause color roll, therefore, reduce the number of fluorescent lamps or

increase the distance between the camera and the lamps. d. The picture appears smeared – (i) the power supply voltage level may be unstable,

therefore, try another power supply; (ii) ensure the cables are correctly connected

and/or the cables are of the correct impedance. e. Other interference may require a SecurityTronix ground loop isolation filter. f. Power is on, but the controller does not work – (i) check to make sure the DIP switches

for address and communications baud rate are properly set, (ii) check to ensure the

RS485 connections at the camera and the PTZ Controller have the same polarity, (iii)

check the integrity and continuity of the unshielded twisted pair (UTP) control cable. g. Additional troubleshooting assistance can be found on-line at www.securitytronix.com

in addition to support from SecurityTronix sales engineers at 1-610-429-1511.
