1. Introduction The CDC2500 xxx Mini series High Speed domes and a series of compatible keyboard controllers make up the building blocks for any size video surveillance system. Using multiple keyboard controllers and multiple high speed dome camera units, one can monitor a variety of environments from small to very large. Extensive and flexible architecture facilitates remote control functions for a variety of external switching devices such as multiplexers and DVRs. 1.
1.2 Features and Functions • Multi-language on screen menu for operation and function settings. • On screen Camera title with exact x/y coordinates. (The camera title is user definable as well as the ability to display or not the camera coordinates) • On screen Crosshair function (By enabling this option, the target can be followed more effectively using the crosshairs as a reference point). • Three user definable PTZ tours with up to 2 minutes record duration for each tour.
2.1 Package Contents The dome carton contains the following: Description Qty High Speed Dome mechanism 1 Camera Module (Sony 18x or LG27x) 1 Clear Acrylic dome cover 1 Camera shroud (black) 1 Bag of Screws (4xM2*4, 4xM3*5) 1 8 conductor Control/Power/Video harness 1 24VAC transformer (optional) 1 Wall bracket (optional) 1 Instruction manual 1 Camera Ribbon cable (spare) 1 Figure 1. Illustrates the upper layer of the packing material (top half) Figure 2.
2.2 Camera Installation (Optional) NOTE: The camera module is pre-installed and tested at the factory according to your order. You do not need to perform any of the following 3 steps unless you desire to change or upgrade the camera module. The followings instructions are for reference purposes only should you need to replace the cable that connects the camera module to the control board. Figure 3 below illustrates the wiring configuration of the flex ribbon/cable. Fig.
Step 2: Install the block video camera module on the vertical axis tray of the dome as illustrated in Figure 7 using the (4) supplied M2*4 screws. Attention: Exercise care not to scratch the lens when installing the camera. (as a precaution leave the protective camera lens cap in place until ready to use the dome. Secure the camera to the corresponding screw holes as illustrated in Figure 6, according to the model and make of the camera, as different camera models may have different dimensions.
2.3 Camera Shroud installation. Figure 10. Illustrates the location of the screw holes for the camera shroud. (4 x M3) Figure 11. Illustrates the camera shroud in position over the camera module Screw holes of camera shroud Fig. 10 Fig. 11 Step 1: Position the open end of the camera shroud towards the camera lens as illustrated on Figure 11. Align the 4 holes of the shroud with the 4 holes on the motor support of the dome as illustrated in Figure 12.
2.4 Wall bracket installation. Step 1: Feed the supplied dome wiring harness through the channel inside the wall bracket as illustrated in Figure 13. Verify that the 8 pin connector is remaining outside the opening of the bracket. Feed the cable through, BNC end first. Fig. 13 Step 2: Affix the wall bracket to the wall verifying that the surface you are attaching to can support the weight of the dome using either expanding anchors or butterfly fasteners as illustrated in Figure 14.
2.5 Attaching the dome to the bracket Step 1: Connect the end of the wiring harness Waterproof O-ring protruding out of the bracket to the mating connector on the dome unit. Observe proper orientation of the connectors (tab facing towards the back of the connector), as illustrated in Figure 15. Attach harness to connector Step 2: Position the dome upwards so that the top ring of the dome is flush with the bracket and secure it in place by tightening the screws as illustrated in Figure 15. Fig.
2.6 Installation of the acrylic dome cover The dome cover has two parts, a metal aluminum ring and a clear acrylic dome. The metal ring has male fine threads that will allow it to mate with the aluminum cover of the dome mechanism. Caution should be exercised when handling the clear dome preventing any abrasions or scratches to the surface as this will affect the optical performance of the camera. Step 1: Carefully align the two parts as illustrated in Figure 17.
2.7 Wiring Specifications The wiring Harness has a label affixed indicating the Power, Video and Communication conductors. Do not remove this label as it may be a useful future reference. Figure 20 is the illustration of the wiring diagram for the electrical connections to the dome unit. Yellow/Green: Ground Wire Video output Black Red 24V power supply Yellow: Orange: Connect to control keyboard Yellow/Green: Ground Wire Fig. 20 Figure 21 illustrates the wiring harness included with the dome.
Chapter 3: Wiring and Setup 3.1 Basic Configuration The illustration below provides the basic electrical wiring configuration for connecting and testing a single dome to a test monitor and a joystick / keyboard controller. When installing the product for the first times please read the installation instructions carefully and become familiar with the electrical connections and setup options. Incorrect wiring may result to permanent damage of the equipment.
3.2 Connecting Multiple Domes When connecting multiple domes together, the user has the option to connect video and control terminals to a video matrix switcher or a DVR multiplexer creating an integrated system. AC24V: Power supply Primary 110V/60HZ input to AC 24V output. RS-485 Bus: Control signal output from joystick controller, connected in a bus configuration to the RS485 communication terminals of the control cable for each dome.
3.3 Communication Settings Before installation and use, the unique address for each dome and the communication protocol including transmission speed (baud rate) should be set to correspond with the chosen control system. Setting the Protocol and baud rate settings for each dome device. 3.

4.3 Setting the device address. (Turn the power off when setting, and restart the device after revision). The figure shows: Address of dome device: No. 1 Address Setting for dome Note: This dip switch is located on PCB in the control board just below the camera module 4.4 Connect the power to the dome. As soon as the power is turned ON, the dome initiates a self test which includes a rotation of the dome on both axis and the camera will display a brief menu followed by a live image on the monitor.
5 Program and Operation 5.1 Main menu The following commands are references to the keyboard controlling the dome. Depending the make and model of the controller these commands may vary slightly. For reference purposes the following key labels / acronyms are used: SHOT = PRESET or PRST - ACK = ENTER - OPEN =Iris open - CLOSE = Iris Close 1. Press 90+SHOT+ACK on the keyboard to enter the main configuration menu for the dome. (Fig.1). 2. To make a selection move the joystick in the Up or Down direction.

Appendix — Glossary 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. AUTOMATIC GAIN CONTROL (AGC) Allows for the amplification of the video signal in scenes with minimal ambient light. Many low-light scenes result in picture noise. As gain is increased, the picture noise is also amplified.
PATTERN A series of pan, tilt, zoom and focus movements from a single programmable dome. Up to 6 patterns may be programmed for the dome camera. PRESET - PRESHOT Programmed video scene, based on a specific pan, tilt, zoom, and focus settings. Up to 128 presets may be programmed for the dome camera. PRIVACY ZONES Masked areas of the dome camera' s viewing area. These masks prevent operators of the surveillance system from viewing these designated zones.
