1.4 Function Description

Alarm Module (Option)

Dome camera supports 8 switch alarm inputs, 1 relay output. When the dome camera has detected the alarm
closed signal, it will call up the corresponding preset 1 to 8.

Tracking (Option)

It targets and tracks automatically the moving object in the screen according to the parameter specified by
user. The tracking scene, size of object, tracking sensitivity and return time when the object is lost can be
settable.

Auto-adaptive to Protocol and Module

The dome can auto-sense the protocol and most comms settings can be made without need to change any
DIP switches.

3D Allocation

With this function users can move the image of some area to the centre of screen according to specified level
and vertical coordinates and auto control to zoom according to zoom parameter set. Screen coordinate
location and zoom local can be available via the software support.

Privacy Masking (Option)

In the monitoring scope, areas that users can’t or aren’t willing to make show in the screen of the monitor can
be set as privacy protected area (area masking), such as area where customers enter the password in
monitoring system of bank or some doorway.

Trace Memory (Pattern Scan)

The traces of camera’s any running action in every directions of PTZ can be saved, which is called pattern
scan. In pattern scan the camera turning to up, down, left and right and zooming in or out can be saved. This
function remembers and imitates a process of operator’s operation.

This dome camera has 4 path patterns. Each path can record 512 different instructions or the longest 15mins’
path operation. Opening any one of the paths can remember automatically the present running trace and scan
cyclically according to the recorded trace.

Auto Flip

In the manual tracking mode, when a target goes directly beneath the dome, the dome will automatically rotate
180 degree in horizontal direction to maintain continuity of tracking. When the dome flips, the camera starts
moving upward as long as you hold the joystick in the down position.

Focus

The auto focus enables the camera to focus automatically to maintain clear image. User can use manual focus
too in special conditions.

Under the following conditions camera will not be able to reliably auto focus on the camera target:

• Target is not in the centre of the screen

• Attempting to view images that are far and near at the same time

• Target is strongly lighted object, such as neon lamp, etc.

• Targets are behind the glass covered with water droplets or dust

Videoswitch Page 3 VD601A.DOC

Vi-D5000 IR Dome

• Targets are moving quickly

• Featureless large area targets, such as wall;

• Targets are too dark or faint.

Back Light Compensation (some models only)

If a bright backlight is present, the target in the picture may appear dark or as a silhouette. BLC enhance the
target in the centre of the picture, the dome uses the centre of the pictures to adjust the iris. If there is a bright
light source outside this area, it will wash out to white, the camera will adjust the iris so that the target in the
sensitive area will properly exposed.

Iris Control (some models only)

Factory default is automatic camera aperture, in mode of which camera senses changes in ambient light
through moving and adjust automatically lens aperture to make the brightness of output image stable.

Ratio Speed

Intelligent pan and tilt speed is variable depend on the zoom factor. When zooming in, the speed will become
slower and when zooming out, the speed will become faster.

Pan Scan

Dome 360°clockwise continuously scans the display scene at set speed in horizontal direction under the
condition that pitch angle remains the same. In the scanning status, operator can move the joystick to exit from
scanning.

Preset

After the dome camera keeps arbitrary PTZ location, it will automatically move to the defined position when
preset is called.

Guard Tour Scan

Dome patrol scans according to certain edited preset order.

A-B Scan

Dome circularly scan close-up real-time scene according to A-B points at setting speed in both horizontal and
vertical directions.

Power Off Memory

This feature allows the dome to resume its previous preset or status after power is restored. By default setting,
the dome support power up memory, which improves the reliability and avoids repeated settings of the
parameter.

Park Action

If users don’t operate the dome in set time, it will automatically run preset specific mode (pan scan, A-B scan,
park action, cruise, preserve action etc).

Multi-language OSD Menu

The available language used on screen menu can be English, etc. User can set the function or parameter, or
check the related information through the OSD.

2 Installation

2.1 Installation Sequence

The following sequence is suggested when installing the dome:

• Remove hinged cap from the top of the dome, carefully unplugging internal connector. Put dome in a
safe place until needed.

• Feed umbilical cable through wall, or trunking and then through the chosen bracket

• Connect a grounding wire to the green wire of the dome cable (coming from the hinged dome cap).

Connect the grounding wire to an earth stake or to the bracket if this is already earthed. This is to
protect the dome from lightning.

• Plug the dome cable (coming from the hinged dome cap) into the umbilical cable. Connect both the
power/control pluggable terminals and the video BNC

• Attach the hinged dome cap to bracket, making sure the hinge is at the front or to one side. Tighten the
three equi-spaced screws to make the dome cap secure

• Stow the wires and connections within the bracket and attach the bracket to wall/pole/ceiling as
required

• Carefully handling the dome, connect the dome safety cable to the bracket

• Hook dome onto the hinged dome cap

• Plug internal connector into dome top

• Hinge dome up into its normal position and tighten the screws that fix hinged cap to dome. Make sure

rubber gasket is properly seated to make a waterproof seal.

• Connect PSU end of umbilical into the PSU (make sure it is turned off)

• Connect controller/display to PSU. Both video and RS485 cables should be connected unless the PSU

has an up-the-coax module fitted in which case only the video cable is required.

• Power up and test

• Make sure all external wiring is made waterproof, using silicone rubber sealant as required

2.2 Connection Details

Note

A 5m umbilical cable is included

2.3 DIP Switch Settings

The dome has DIP switches for setting protocol, baud rate, termination and address. All these settings except
termination can be made from within the menu, so typically there is no need to access these switches. If
required, the DIP switches are accessible by removing a panel on the side of the dome just above the camera
lens. Ensure the waterproof seal is restored when replacing the panel.

2.3.1 Preparation

Before installation, make sure that the protocol, baud rate and address code used by the product is fully
consistent with the control system. The individual DIP switch functions can be seen below:

2.3.2 Address Settings

DIP switch SW1 is the address settings of camera. It is a 8-bit switch. Each switch corresponds with 0 or 1 in
the Binary code. OFF status means 0 while ON status means 1.

For example, turn on the 1st and 3rd (allocated to ON position) and get the binary code 00000101, so the
correspondence address is 5.

For details of settings please refer to the back “Address Code Mapping Table”(Section

If you wish to change the address in the menu rather than using the DIP switches, you will need to
communicate with the dome using its default address to start with.

5.4).

2.3.3 Baud Rate Settings

The 4th and 5th DIP Switches set the Baud rate. Factory-default setting is 2400bps. Baud rate options are
1200, 2400, 4800, 9600.

If you wish to change the baud rate in the menu rather than using the DIP switches, you will need to
communicate with the dome using its default baud rate to start with.
