3.01 Introduction 3.04 Contents of Package Thanks for buying NIghtRunner from Iris Innovations! Please unpack your NightRunner and check to make sure the following items are included. If there are any items missing please contact your Iris dealer: By choosing NightRunner you have added a highly sensitive imaging device to your boat that aids visibility during the day and perhaps more importantly, at night or in low light conditions, thus enhancing your on board safety and enjoyment.
4.01 Typical Configuration Examples. For single camera, single controller installs no additional hardware is required. Simply connect the IRIS595 controller directly to the data lines of the breakout balun, and run the video from the breakout balun directly into your screen (or chartplotter etc).
5.01 Camera Control Data NightRunner cameras are controlled via an RS485 serial data connection, using a variant of the Pelco-D CCTV camera control protocol. The Pelco-D protocol was designed to provide accurate controls for a wide range of standard CCTV features, such as pan, tilt, user preset features etc, but do not include certain extended features supported by Iris cameras.
5.06 Power Connections Part No The power tail from NightRunners balun is terminated with a 2.1mm DC Barrel plug, with a positive center pin. Connect your DC supply to this plug using the Screw Terminal DC Socket supplied. Always ensure your power supply is protected by a sufficiently rated fuse or breaker. The NightRunner balun is fitted with a 3A resettable fuse for added safety. BNC-THRU Item Straight Thru BNC Adapter 3. The diagram in section 6.03 illustrates methods of extending the cabling. 5.
6.01 Hardware Installation Get to know your NightRunner! The different parts of your camera are labelled here: Inner Dome Contains the thermal camera module and tilt motor Protective Cowling Shields the Inner Dome and Tilt Pivot points Daylight Camera Lens Window Protective lens window for daylight camera. Germanium Lens Window Protective lens window through which heat is conducted. This is manufactured through a material called Germanium - not glass. Thermal Imaging cameras cannot ʻseeʼ through glass.
6.01 Hardware Installation (Continued...) 1. Once youʼve established a suitable installation position, offer the camera in to place and mark of the six fixing holes. Alternatively, use the drilling template supplied to mark of the fixing positions and cable entry hole. 2. Use a suitably sized drill to create pilot holes for the 6 x 1/4”x3/4” fixing screws. 3. Use a 35mm hole saw to create the cable entry hole 4.
6.02 Breakout Balun The 60ft CAT5 cable from your NightRunner terminates in the supplied Breakout Balun thatʼs pictured below. Power Supply 2.1mm DC Barrel Connector. Input from Camera CAT5 (B) RJ45 Connector RS485 Data Wires Connect to your IRIS595 Controller or other control option. Video Output 75Ω 1VP~P Composite Video RJ45 Connector Connect into socket. 6.03 Details on Extending Cable As described in section 5.
7.01 Powering Up Upon switching on the circuit breaker that isolates the camera, the unit will perform an initialization routine. During this routine, which lasts approximately 30 seconds, the camera will pan and tilt automatically in order to calibrate itself. You will notice the mechanical shutter 'wiping' the image frequently for the first few minutes as the unit warms up. This will eventually settle into an automatic interval of wiping approximately every couple of minutes.
9.01 Controlling the Camera - IRIS595 MENU This section explains how the camera features are controlled and selected using the dedicated IRIS595 NightRunner Joystick Controller. Extended features are accessed by pressing the MENU button. Please note, in certain menuʼs, camera control functions are disabled. To exit back to the home screen at any time move the joystick up.
Scans User Presets The camera supports 4 different Scan Modes. Once activated, tilt and zoom commands are still accepted by the camera but you will not be able to pan the camera until the Scan has been Stopped: The camera has a built in memory that can be used to store up to 100 user ʻpresetʼ positions. A preset allows you to move the camera to a favourite or important position and learn that position so that the camera can be instructed to move at top speed to that position at the touch of a button.
10.01 Protocol Command List The table below lists features specific to IRIS295 Series (NightRunner) Cameras that are not covered by the standard Pelco-D protocol and the commands that have been mapped in IRIS camera software to operate those features. Values are shown in hexadecimal. The checksum for all Pelco-D commands is the 8 bit (modulo 256) sum of the payload bytes (bytes 2 ~ 6) within the message. Refer to the Pelco-D protocol document for further information.
11.01 Camera Address Table The cameras unique device address is set using DIP switch Bank 1. The following table lists switch positions for each address from 0~38. There are a total of 255 address positions available. For address settings above 38 please contact Iris Innovations technical support. Do not use address 0 as this is rarely used by control equipment.

APPENDIX: A DIP SWITCH SETTINGS Its vitally important to ensure the DIP switch settings for your camera are correct. Incorrect settings could result in issues such as video loss or no control. When you open the DIP switch window, hold the camera so the switches are orientated as shown below. Switch Bank 1 The top bank of switches is Switch Bank 1 and controls the video format (switch 3) and image flip (switch 8). You should never need to touch switch bank 1 as it is factory set depending on your region.
APPENDIX: B CABLING NightRunner is supplied with a 50ft water resistant CAT5 568B Straight-Thru Cable. WARNING! Although CAT5 cable is utilized, NIGHTRUNNER IS NOT A NETWORK DEVICE AND MUST NEVER BE CONNECTED TO ETHERNET EQUIPMENT SUCH AS SWITCHES, ROUTERS, PoE INJECTORS etc. Connecting to such devices could damage the camera beyond economical repair and also damage the IRIS595 controller and any other equipment that may be on the network.
