Pressurized Housing Components

The SurveyorVFT Pressurized Housing is comprised of a Housing, a SurveyorVFT Camera Drive and a Trim Ring/Lower Dome Assembly as shown in Figure 1. This assembly is the heart of every prepackaged pressurized housing version of the SurveyorVFT Camera Dome. With the addition of a mount, the pressurized housing version can be equipped for indoor or outdoor wall mount or pipe mounting.

Note: The Alarm 1 input is attached to an internal pressure switch that is used to sense low pressure. By default, when the pressure in the housing dips below 1 psg an On Screen Display message appears stating “Low Pressure.” Alternatively, this alarm warning may be sent to the CPU by enabling the alarm in the Camera Alarm Handling submenu. When this is activated, the On Screen Display message will not appear. Refer to Programming manual XX134-4X for alarm information.

Housing

The housing is a combination cast aluminum frame and molded polyethylene plastic UV-resistant weather-proof shell. It is used as the mounting frame for the camera drive that mounts to the two (2) tabs on the inside of the housing. The interior is environmentally controlled using a thermostatically controlled heater/fan assembly. A safety cord and clip are provided on the inside to connect the camera drive latch during installation. The lower side of the housing is equipped with a fill valve (Schraeder type); the top has a pressure switch and a pressure relief valve. In addition, a 23-pin female, pressure-rated connector is installed at the top for signal connection. There is also a rectangular shaped flange surface with a four-hole bolt pattern, covered with gasket material that is used to attach a pipe or wall mount. The inside of the housing is factoryprepared for the installation of the SurveyorVFT camera drive mechanism.

Configuring the ViconNet (IP/LAN) Version

The following information is provided when installing the ViconNet version of the SVFT-PRS (IP dome) only. The SVFT-PRS camera dome (IP version) is shipped with a CD that contains the ViconNet version 3 software needed to setup your IP system, including the application setup, the camera firmware and setup software (VNSetup). Be sure the ViconNet Workstation meets the minimum requirements, is running the ViconNet application (version 3) (VNSetup) and has the proper PTZ camera driver. The VNSetup is found on the included CD under software, IP Camera Setup. Refer to appropriate ViconNet documentation.

Network Considerations

The SVFT-PRS Camera Dome can be connected to any ViconNet network (Version 3 software). Kollector Elite Recorders and ViconNet Workstations can be used for live viewin g and recording of network-streamed video. A network can be as simple as a single SVFT-M connected to a ViconNet Workstation or can be complex with the addition of several networks interconnected via WAN.

When adding a SVFT-PRS IP Camera to the ViconNet network, the following items must be considered:

• The number of cameras on a switch with respect to switch capabilities and system bandwidth mapping.

• Bandwidth limitations on ports connected to workstations (using 100 or 1000 Mbps).

• Workstation capabilities such as proces sing speed, disk write speed and display card strength.

• Storage size and location types including local Workstation recording, attache d SCSI RAID a nd

integrated NAS/SAN devices.

The default parameters on the IP dome are:

IP address Nucleus IP address: [1.1.1.1].

On first startup, the camera will attempt to establish connection to the Nucleus with the default address (1.1.1.1). Connecting it to an active Nucleus is done through the VNSetup utility.

: [10.10.10.1].

Note: When connecting to ViconNet application version 3, the number of concurrent users viewing video

from the same device cannot exceed 10 users.

Groups and Users Restrictions

ViconNet allows creating Multiple Groups and Users in order to limit the rights to different levels. For more information on how to create Users and Groups, refer to the latest revision of ViconNet manual XX113.

Although the ViconNet software does not limit the number of Groups and Users that can be created, the SurveyorVFT Camera Dome has Users and Groups limitations. For ViconNet version 3, the dome can support the first 20 Groups (including Administrators and Guests) and the first 50 Users.

Configuring the Network Settings

Note: Before starting, make sure that VNSetup is installed on the configuring PC\workstation. Installation is

done using the CD included.

There are two ways to change the IP dome network settings:

• Activating the camera for the first time: via VNSetup application.

• Camera connects to an active Nucleus: via ViconNet application (connection to same Nucleus as the

camera is necessary).

Note: In order to install firmware, the PC and camera must be on the same IP network.

18 • Installation XX163-11-00 Rev 1006 SVFT-PRS Pressurized Dome Housing

Using the VNSetup Utility

VNSetup consists of several TABs. Each TAB provides different functionalities.

Note: Once the VNSetup is run the first time, a shortcut is placed on the desktop for future use.

1. Make sure the MAC address and password of the camera is available. Use MAC Address log provide d.

2. Verify that the camera is physically connected to the configuring workstation via the network.

24 • Uninstalling XX163-11-00 Rev 1006 SVFT-PRS Pressurized Dome Housing

Operation

When power is applied to the camera, the SVFT-PRS will boot up through a diagnostic routine and view the currently selected scene. Refer to the latest version of the SurveyorVFT Programming Manual XX134-40 for details on setup and operation.

Troubleshooting

If the SurveyorVFT does not power-up correctly, check the following: ⇒ Check if the power LED DP2 on the Customer Interface Board is on. If the voltage is too low, the LED will

stay off.

⇒ Verify, with a voltmeter, that 18 to 32 VAC is measured across TB1, pins 1 and 2. If not, check the

integrity of the power wiring. If less than 18 VAC is measured, it is probable that the power cable length is too long. Check the maximum usable cable distance for the voltage input as stated in Table of the Technical Information section. If 18 to 32 VAC is measured, return the SurveyorVFT back to factory for service in accordance with the Shipping Instructions section of this manual.

⇒ If the last screen displays and does not disappear, the SurveyorVFT is not communicating with the control

device. Verify that the SurveyorVFT address is selected on the control device. Sometimes moving the joystick can begin communication. If communication cannot be established, check the integrity of the control signal wiring. If all wiring is correct, swap the camera drive and re-check. If the new camera drive communicates, return the SurveyorVFT back to the factory for service in accordance with the Shipping Instructions section of this manual.

⇒ If the SurveyorVFT is intermittently operational or operating independently, it is possible that the

communications (control) wiring is incorrect. Re-check proper placement of the control and response signals on the terminal block. Also, verify that SW2, switch 3 is set for Half Duplex in a Half Duplex wired SurveyorVFT.

⇒ If the SurveyorVFT powers up but does not display any video, it is possible that there is a poor video

cable connection. Verify that BNC connectors are attached at the camera dome and monitor/CPU. In addition, verify that the cable is not damaged. It is common for the cable to be stretched or squashed somewhere along its run. If possible, check the output locally, with a portable monitor, at the actual camera dome site.

26 • Operation XX163-11-00 Rev 1006 SVFT-PRS Pressurized Dome Housing

Maintenance

The SVFT-PRS Camera Dome requires no scheduled maintenance except for the occasional cleaning of the lower dome.

Care and Cleaning of Clear Polycarbonate Domes

1. Always handle the lower dome by the flange and avoid touching the inside surface.

2. If dust or dirt accumulates in the lower dome's interior, remove it with clean dry pressurized air.

3. If spots, streaks or stains appear on the exterior, they can be removed with a solution of mild soap or isopropyl alcohol and water using a lint-free soft paper towel. Dry with clean, dry pressurized air.

4. Scratches or surface blemishes on the exterior may be removed with a nonab rasive wax using a soft cleaning cloth.

Caution: Excessive rubbing of the lower dome surface can cause permanent scratches.

5. Clean all surfaces with any soft cleaning cloth and a mild glass cleanser suitable for polycarbonate plastic.

Cable Recommendations

Coaxial Cable

Caution: Careful selection of proper cable is essential to obtain the best performance from this equipment. Vicon assumes no

responsibility for poor performance when cables other than those recommended, or equivalent, are installed. In all cases, coaxial cable impedance should be 75 ohms.

Materials

Use only a pure copper center conductor. Do not use a copper-plated steel or aluminum cent er conductor, as they will result in poor quality video. Solid-core bare c opper co nduct o r is the best t ype where flexing and bending will be minimal. If severe bending and flexing is required for installati on, use a strand ed center conductor. Never exceed the manufactur er’s minimum bend radius specification. Use cellular (foam) pol yethylene dielectric except where heavy moisture exists. For moisture conditions, use solid polyethylene dielectric cable with a heavy exterior insulation. The shield must be copper braid providing 95% or better coverage.

Cable Types

The cable types listed below are the most common 75-oh m types used. They vary in size (di ameter), dielectric type and net DC resistance. The larger cable results in a lower DC resistance an d better video quality, with increased difficulty in handling and installation. Use the required pi cture qu al it y and cab le distanc e to pr ovid e a guide i n choos i ng the best c able type. For cables other than the approved Vicon types below, contact the manufacturers listed bel o w. Note that “BC” refers to bare copper and “TC” refers to tinned copper.

CAUTION: Careful selection of the proper cable is essential to obtain the best performance from this equipment. Vicon assumes

no responsibility for poor performance when cables other than those recommended are installed.

Materials

Use a pure copper stranded conductor with or without a tin plating to obtain a low DC resistance. Do not use cable with either a steel or an aluminum stranded conductor because these do not transfer signals effectively for long distances. The preferred insulation and cable jacket is Polyvinyl chloride (PVC). It has better electrical characteristics than polyethylene and resists flames, sunlight and most solvents, but is more vulnerable to moisture.

Cable Types

The most commonly used cable types are dual individu ally-shielded, twisted pair in a single jacket. This configuration is the most convenient for RS-422/ RS485 applications. Single twisted pair is also a suitable cable.

Choose a Belden cable type by referring to the characteristics and maximum distances listed below. The maximum distance for the most reliable digital control refers to the distance between the CPU/Keypad an d the Camera Dome Assembly. The characteristics of the cables in the table should be used as a guideline when cables other than Belden are used. Materials and construction must follow the guidelines above.
