2.4 Setting Dome Camera Address (ID)
To prevent damage, each dome camera must have a unique address (ID). When installing
multiple dome cameras using a multiplexer, it is suggested that the dome camera address match
the multiplexer port number.
If you want to set the address more than 999, you should contact the service provider.
Example:
cameras are installed using two or more multiplexers, ID of the dome camera should be ID of
MUX x No. of camera IN. (e.g. multiplexer ID= n, Camera IN= m then ID of Dome =16x(n-1)+m )
Refer to Figures 4-5 for setting the dome camera address (ID) and protocol selection.
Port 1 = Dome 1, Port 2 = Dome 2 … Port 16 = Dome 16. If more than 16 dome

Appendix C — Glossary
Alarm Actions
The assigned responses for the dome camera when inputs change from normal to abnormal
states. The dome may run a Preset, Pattern, or have no assigned action for each of the four
dome inputs. The dome may also send alarm states to the host controller for processing. See
also Input and Normal Input State.
Areas
Programmed start and end points of the dome's field of view around its pan axis.
Each area is a part of a circular viewing area that extends around the dome. The areas can be
different sizes. Up to 16 areas can be programmed for the dome.
Automatic Gain Control (AGC)
Allows for the amplification of the video signal in scenes with minimal ambient light. Many lowlight scenes result in picture noise. As gain is increased, the picture noise is also amplified.
When AGC is enabled, the value of the gain setting is based on feedback from the camera.
When AGC is disabled, the camera uses the value set for the manual gain setting. The trade-off
between picture level and noise may be adjusted when AGC is disabled.
On-screen Menu
The text overlay menu system used for setting dome features. The utility is accessed using a
keystroke combination. The utility provides settings for camera functions, zoom, alarms, text
display, and password protection.
Flip
Allows the dome to automatically turn 180 degrees when the camera tilts to its lower limit and
stays in that position for a brief delay. When the dome flips (rotates), the camera starts moving
upward as long as the tilt control is kept in the down position. Once the control is released, the
tilt control returns to its normal operational mode. The flip feature is useful when you need to
track someone who walks directly beneath the dome and continues on the other side.
Home Position
The default position to which the dome camera returns after an assigned period of inactivity
passes. The default position may be a Preset, Tour, Pattern, or No Action.
Input Alarm
A connection point on the dome camera that enables the system to monitor Input Devices. There
are four inputs available for the dome camera.
Input Devices
External devices that provide information about the condition of system components that
connect to the inputs on the dome camera. Typical input devices include door contacts, motion
detectors and smoke detectors.
35
IR Mode
A feature of the camera that permits manual or automatic switching between color and IR
(black-and-white) operation. When IR mode is active, clearer images may be obtained under
low-light conditions.
Line Lock
Allows you to phase lock the video with the AC power line. When line lock is enabled, it prevents
vertical video rolling when switching multiple cameras to a single monitor. If text appears slightly
tinted on color monitors, disabling the line lock may prevent this problem.
Name Information
Relates to the display the dome name, the area where the dome is pointing, the name of the
preset or pattern that is running, and alarm names. The display of each type of name setting can
be enabled or disabled. When the display of camera or area title(name) is enabled, the
information appears on the screen continuously. Preset, tour and pattern titles(names) appear
only while they are active.
Normal Input State
Describes the expected state of a device connected to one of eight dome camera’s inputs. The
normal state may be open or closed. When a device is not in its normal input state, an alarm is
issued.
North Position
User-definable setting that may correspond to magnetic north or some well-known landmark.
Used to approximate the camera dome's pointing direction when Direction Indicators are
enabled.
Low Shutter
Setting used to improve the quality of video obtained in extreme low-light situations. When the
Low Shutter setting is enabled, low-light information is collected over multiple fields based on the
Shutter Limit setting. As a result, video may appear blurred or choppy in extreme low-light
situations. This setting does not effect camera operation in normal lighting situations. See also
Automatic Gain Control (AGC).
Pattern
A series of pan, tilt, zoom and focus movements from a single programmable dome. Up to 8
patterns may be programmed for the dome camera.
Preset
Programmed video scene, based on a specific pan, tilt, zoom, and focus settings. Up to 240
presets may be programmed for the dome camera.
36
Privacy Zones
Masked areas of the dome camera's viewing area. These masks prevent operators of the
surveillance system from viewing these designated zones. The Privacy Zones move in relation
to the dome camera’s pan/tilt position. In addition, the apparent size of the Privacy Zone adjusts
automatically as the lens zooms in or out. Up to eight Privacy Zones may be established for a
dome camera.
Shutter Limit
Setting used to define the maximum exposure time for the Open Shutter setting. The values for
the setting range from 1/2 to 1/60. The default setting is 1/4.
Vector Scan
Move from start point to end point including tilt and zoom simultaneously and linearly.
WDR
Wide Dynamic Range Technology uses two shutter speeds in alternative video fields-high and
normal- every 60th (or 50th) of a second and combines two fields into one progressive scan
frame. It allows every detail to be captured accurately even if one portion of an image is
brilliantly. Whether at the high shutter speed or normal shutter speed, the progressive scan CCD
provides a horizontal resolution of 470 lines. As a result, combined fields yield a frame of highquality images.
White balance
Adjustments in the color hue (red and blue) gains for a camera so that true white appears white
in the image. It is normally compensated for by the automatic gain control. In some lighting
conditions, you may need to manually adjust the red and blue settings for optimal viewing. When
Automatic White Balance is enabled, the camera measures the image and automatically adjusts
the red and blue settings to balance white. When Automatic White Balance is disabled, the
camera uses the values set for the red and blue settings to balance white.
