Powering the Camera
The dome cam eras are dual v ol tage i .e. you can use them on a 12V DC system or a 24V AC system. The camera has bui lt in power supply control circui t for ease of connec tion; thi s means that you can connect to any 12VDC or 24VAC system wit hout worrying about polarity or vol tage regulation. The camera is provided with a screw terminal on a fly lead that allows you to connect the power supply to it. When poweri ng the camera with a 12V DC power supply, ensure that the supply is regulat ed and has a continuous rati ng of 100m A or higher per camera. It is recom mended to use a power supply that is rated higher than the current consum ption of the camera i .e. POW 100 would be adequate for powering a single camera but when powering t wo or more you should look at the bi gger power supplies that are available from System Q; this prevents the PS U from runni ng at its maximum rati ng for long periods of time.
If you are using the System Q Easy Connection Kit (CCT 806/7) to power and connect your camera (12V models onl y) pl ease proc eed as per t he i nstruc t i ons suppli ed with T he Easy Connecti on Ki t . You wil l need to cut of f the DC Plug ONLY and use the bare wires to connect to the termi nal strip. T he 12V positiv e is the RED wire the 0V is the BLACK wire.
Using 24V AC power
Using a suitable cable between the 24V AC power supply (POW600) and the camera you can connect the power to the cameras terminal stri p either way around. As the power is 24V AC, (alternating current), the polarity is not important . You must use a separate cable f or power and video. It is recommended you use a 2/4-core cabl e t o carry the AC power to the camera and use an RG59 or twisted pair cable to bring the video signal back from the cam era to the monitor / control equipm ent.
Connecting the camera to control equipment.
The dome cam era com es with a f l y l ead f or power and v i deo out. To reduce instal lat ion ti me the v i deo out lead is t erminated i nt o a male BNC connector. Thi s al l ows the instal l er t o effortl essly connec t the camera to control equi pment via a femal e BNC-BNC lead. Remember that the Video out from the cam era is like any other el ectrical ci rcuit and requires two wires to complet e the circuit. When using a co-ax type cable such as RG59 or similar, the outer braid of the co-ax provides the “0V GROUND” connection and the inner core provides the “Video” connection.
It is recommended that when you are first setting up the cameras that you use a short BNC-BNC cable to link the camera directly to the monitor and to set it up at the same time. This allows you to both understand

the camera and get the very best out of this great product, as you will be able to adjust the camera whilst looking at the monitor screen. Obviously whilst you are setting up the camera, it does need to be powered!
Lens Adjustment
When setting the l ens to suit your particul ar appli cation, remov e the cov er and inner lens surround, loosen off the locking screws and alter t he focal / Tel e/wide adjustments. W hen the desired picture is achiev ed tighten the locking screws and replace the covers. There are two secti ons to the lens that can be m odified, t he focal adjustm ent that allows you to alter the position of the focal lens in order to f ocus the lens. The Tel e/wide adjustment allows you to achiev e the required angle.
Hint: When you are sett ing up t he cameras on sit e it pays t o have a t est monitor w ith you so that whilst you are up ladders, you can posit ion the lens wit hout having to go up and dow n to the monitor to check on the camera setting.

The pins adjust the focus and the angle of view or tele/wide angles. To change the focus or angl e the pins need to be loosened by turni ng t hem counter clock wise. When the correct focus and picture is achieved then re-tighten the locking screws to hold the sett ings in place. See Figure 3 for the lens pi n locations.
The Dipswitch settings
(Refer t o figure 4 and Table1) The dipswitches are numbered 1-3. There are 2 positions for the dipswitches, either ON or OFF. Switches 1 and 2 are for the Auto-Iris setti ngs of the lens. Switch 3 i s for the BLC (Back Light Compensation).
The common settings for the switches when the Auto Iris lens is fitted are shown in Figure 4 (Please Note that this l ens i s fitted as standard) (Please refer to Table 1 for t he complete dipswitch settings.)

ESC
The electronic iris setting would be used i f a standard or manual iris lens is being used. This relies on the electroni cs built into the camera PCB to electronically set the correct picture brightness.
ALC
The Auto Iris setting is used when the lens has the Automati c Iris functi on. This is fitted as standard on the camera. T he ALC control may need to be adjusted for this l ens i f the picture is too bright or poor at night. This control is only eff ective when the Aut o Iris lens is fitted and the dipswitches set accordingly. (See the Automatic Level Control section f or further details)
FL
The FL or Fl icker Less switch is used if there appears to be ‘pulsing’ or ‘flickering’ on the picture. Setting the switches as in table 1 (SW1 OFF and SW2 ON) removes the problem.
Back Light Compensation (BLC)
This option can help when there is something bri ght in the main picture such as an external window. The symptom s may show some of the objects in the picture as silhouettes. Setting t his to ON allows the lens to compensate for the bright part of the picture so that the surrounding area of the picture is not too dark.

Automatic Level Control (ALC)
Figure 4
Note: If the camera is giving satisfactory pictures t hen there is no need to adjust the ALC control. The ALC setting determines when the IRIS of a lens opens and closes. Turning the control counter clockwise al lows the IRIS to open, which in turn allows in more li ght producing a brighter pi cture. Turning the control clockwise allows the IRIS to close producing a dark picture. The best way to set up the ALC is with t he cam era i n the bri ght est li ght condi t ions that it wil l be operat i ng in i.e. sunli ght and keep the IRI S open to its m axim um without gi vi ng too bright a pi cture. T his means at low light levels the IRIS will be as open as possible giving the best results.
Use the following method to adjust the ALC control.
Tip:
Set-up the ALC with the camera in its brightest working conditions. This will gi ve the best overall operati on of the Iris for varying light levels.
1. Turn the ALC control fully counter clockwise. The picture on the monitor should be very bright or white.
2. Slowly turn the ALC control cl ockwise until the pict ure is as required.

Installation Overview
Installation Tips: Tip 1: With reference to the Int ernal gasket that seals between the domes cover and base. Spread a thin
coat of silicon grease onto the lip of the dome and seal prior to fi xing the cover (this is a simple precautionary measure that will assist the seal s properties and also aid removal for future serv icing). Tip 2: With reference to the rubber grommet that is used for cable entry. Use silicon sealant or another t ype of sealant wit h the same or similar properties to seal around the cables and entry hole.
Figure 5 below shows you how to replace the polycarbonate dome insert – order code CCT 464

Trouble-shooting Tips
Picture too bright or d ark:
The ALC control is set incorrectly
The BLC switch needs setting
The camera is set for Electronic Iris and not Auto Iris
No Picture.
Check the supply voltage to t he camera. This can be anywhere between 12-24volts ac/dc
Check the BNC video lead connect ion. Remember that like any other electrical system the vi deo
signal requires a 2-wir e connec tion. The centre cor e carries the video signal and the outer core or screen is the ‘video signal return’
Poor Night Time Pictures:
Check the dipswitch configurati on, the camera is suppli ed with an auto iris lens as standard and they should be set for Aut o Iris and not Electronic Iris.
Check the set-up of the camera in its brightest operati ng conditions and adjust the ALC cont rol as described in the instructions.
Check there i s suf ficient lighting available for the area under observation, if it is not possible t o see anything in the dark yourself i t is unlikely that the camera wil l see anything either. TIP: Take a lead
lamp to the sight and try recording the picture with the light in different places; this will help solve or highlight any lighting issues.
Poor Focus:
Check the lens adjustments for focus and set for best possible picture as requi red.

Check the ALC control. This controls the iris aperture and if it is too open t hen t he picture will not be sharp. This is best set-up in the brightest operating conditions. See the ALC section.
Check that t he dome cover is clean.
Check that t here is or has been no moisture ingress through a poor seal or cable entry. This usually
leav es tell tale smears on the inside of the dom e cover.
