Installation Manual Pyramid Universal Dome Interface THE UNIVERSAL DOME INTERFACE The Pyramid Universal Dome Interface (UDI) enables a range of dome products to be connected and controlled via the Pyramid network with a minimum of effort. The UDI can be configured to operate in a number of different dome protocols, and because of this it can translate commands from the Pyramid network to the correct format for the specific product.
Pyramid Universal Dome Interface Installation Manual CONNECTING AND CONFIGURING THE UDI The two end panels of the Universal Dome Interface contain all the connectors and switches that are required to connect and configure the device. The panels also contain a number of receive and transmit LEDs which enable easy system diagnosis, and a service pin that is used when the UDI is addressed.
Installation Manual Pyramid Universal Dome Interface CONNECTING AND CONFIGURING THE UDI Dip switch number 6 is used to enable or disable the auto-iris function. If the auto-iris functionality is enabled (dip switch 6 UP), the iris level on the connected device will be readjusted for the lighting conditions every thirty seconds. If this functionality is disabled (dip switch 6 DOWN), iris adjustments will have to be made manually using a system keyboard.
Pyramid Universal Dome Interface Installation Manual CONNECTING AND CONFIGURING THE UDI Pyramid Data Connector - This three-way terminal is used to connect the UDI to the Pyramid network. This can be either a RS485 or FTT10 network depending on the UDI variant in use. Connect the UDI to the network using pins 2 and 3 (labelled + and - to indicate polarity), and connect the cable screen to ground on pin 1 (labelled ).
