Spectra III/Spectra IV Installation To install the TXB-V translator board in a Spectra III/Spectra IV Series: 1. Turn off power to the dome system. 2. Remove the lower dome. 3. Remove the dome drive by pressing in the blue and red tabs on the sides of the dome drive. Gently rock the dome drive to release it from the back box. 4. Set the P2 jumper on the TXB-V to the proper termination setting (refer to Figure 6).
6. Install the TXB-V translator board into the back box: a. Open the hinged door to the back box. Push the tab lock towards the back box wall of the unit and open the door (refer to Figure 7). Figure 7. Spectra III/Spectra IV Back Box Interconnect Door b. C656M-E (4/07) Check the wiring to the controller.

Spectra Mini Dome Installation To install the TXB-V translator board in a Spectra Mini dome: NOTE: Installing a TXB-V into a mini dome increases unit height. In surface mount installations, you must cut a hole in the surface to accommodate the TXB-V cover. For an installation template and more information, refer to the Spectra Mini Dome Installation manual. 1. Turn off power to the dome system. 2.
5. Set the P2 jumper on the TXB-V to the proper termination setting (refer to Figure 13). Note the following: • • • • • By default, the P2 jumper is installed in the unterminated position. All TXB-Vs in a daisy chain, except the last unit, must be unterminated. The total wire distance from the Vicon controller to the last TXB-V in a daisy chain must be less than 4,000 ft (1,219 m). A maximum of 10 receivers can be installed on a single daisy chain.
REMOVE SHORTING PLUG Figure 14. Removing the Mini Dome Cover and Shorting Plug c. Insert the TXB-V translator board into the 16-pin connector on the Spectra Mini dome’s circuit board. d. Install the translator board cover that is supplied with the Spectra Mini dome. Figure 15.
8. Check the wiring to the controller. Refer to the Spectra Mini dome documentation and the documentation supplied with your controller to make sure the wiring is correct.

ExSite Installation To install the TXB-V translator board in an ExSite unit: WARNING: To reduce the risk of ignition of hazardous atmospheres, disconnect the equipment from the supply circuit before opening. 1. Turn off the power to the ExSite system. WARNING: Total weight of the pan and tilt component is 55 lb (25 kg). Use caution when lifting and assembling the pan and tilt component on the power module. It is recommended that nonslip gloves be worn during installation or removal. 2.
• To unterminate a TXB-V, remove the P2 jumper from the TXB-V and place it over one pin for storage. NOTE: When combining Pelco and Vicon receivers in the same system, refer to the Vicon manual for proper RS-485 configuration of the Vicon receiver(s).
