1 Introduction
The LTC 136x and LTC 146x series FlexidomeXT cameras are small,
discreet, high-security surveillance domes containing high-performance
¼-inch CCD cameras with integral varifocal lenses. The integrated unit is
easily mounted to an electrical box or to a wall or ceiling. The sturdy
construction and high impact resistant polycarbon dome protect the
camera module from damage. The camera comes ready to use and has
line-lock, phase adjustment, and backlight compensation controls to ensure
the highest quality image and performance.

4 Mounting the unit
The unit is mounted in several different ways depending on the type of
surface, whether an electrical box is used and whether the connection is via
the rear or the side (raised from the surface).
Caution
Installation should only be performed by qualified service
personnel in accordance with the National Electrical Code or
applicable local codes.
If the connection is from the side, use the optional raised mounting base
(LTC 1347) and mount the FlexidomeXT onto this base.
Tips
• Use the mounting base as a template to mark the position of the four
screw holes and the center hole for the wires.
• Ensure that the mounting surface is level and smooth so that the rubber
gasket at the back of the mounting base forms a watertight seal.
• Partially screw in two screws for the keyholes and use them to
temporarily hang the camera while the connections are made.
The following drawings show the different ways of mounting the unit.

Raised mounting - side connection
When using the raised mounting base with a side connection:
• Remove the cap covering the side entrance.
• Use the conduit grommet to attach the conduit to the mounting base.
• Run the power and video wires through separate rubber grommets into
the connection box area.
Raised mounting - rear connection
When using the raised mounting base with a rear connection:
• Leave the cap covering the side entrance in place.
• Run the power and video wires through separate rubber grommets into
the connection box area.
Note
In order to ensure a watertight cable entry, use round cables of between 5
and 6 mm (0.2 - 0.24 inch) for power and video connection.

FlexidomeXT | Installation Manual EN | 11
5 Connection and set-up
Power and video connections
The wiring harness has a BNC connector to accept the video coax cable
(with male BNC connector) and two stripped wires for connection to a low
voltage power source.
Caution
Before proceeding, be sure to disconnect the power from the
cable to be installed into the unit. Be sure that the unit is of the
proper voltage type for the power source being used.
The easiest way to connect the low voltage power lines and the video
connection is as follows:
• Bring the building connections through the surface wire hole so that
they hang clear.
• Partially insert two screws into the pre-drilled holes (or adapter plate).
• Using the keyholes, hang the mounting base on one screw temporarily
and tilt the base slightly to gain access to the cable connections.
• Connect the BNC connector of the camera module to the video coax
cable.
• Connect the stripped power wires to the power supply connector.
Note
For a DC supply the polarity is not important. For an AC supply try to
maintain a consistent wiring polarity in multiple camera systems to help
avoid rolling when switching.
• Push the connections back through the surface wire hole.
• Secure the mounting base to the surface with four screws.

Setting up the camera
You may connect a monitor to the miniature 2.5 mm jack on the printed
circuit board cover to help set up the camera. This jack provides a
composite video signal, via the optional cable S1460 (2.5 mm plug to BNC
female).

Bosch Security Systems | 2005-02 | V2.0

FlexidomeXT | Installation Manual EN | 13
DIP switches
Use the four DIP switches on the printed circuitboard to set the following
functions:
1. BLC – Back Light Compensation (factory default: Off)
2. WB – White Balance (factory default: On)
3. NC – Night Sense (factory default: On)
4. LL – Line Lock (factory default: On)
If line lock is set to On, then you can adjust the V-phase to synronize the
picture with other AC powered cameras in the system. Use a small
screwdriver to rotate the V-phase control on the printed circuit board.
Camera positioning
The physical default position of the camera is that the top of the image
corresponds to the indication TOP.
Caution
The CCD image sensors are highly sensitive and require special
care for proper performance and extended lifetime. Do not expose
them to direct sunlight or bright spotlights in operating and non-
operating conditions. Avoid bright lights in the field of view of the
camera.
The camera module position can be adjusted along three axes. When
adjusting the camera position ensure that the picture display on the
monitor is level. Set the camera to the desired position by performing the
following steps:
• For horizontal adjustment, rotate the camera module in the base. Do
not rotate more than 360°.
• For vertical adjustment, loosen thumbscrews, position camera, then
gently tighten thumbscrews to secure camera.
• To obtain a horizontal horizon (for tilted ceilings or sidewall
mounting), rotate the base of the lens as necessary to align the picture
shown on the monitor. Do not rotate more than 360°.
Bosch Security Systems | 2005-02 | V2.0

FlexidomeXT | Installation Manual EN | 14
Focal length and focus
Before adjusting, place the adjustment cap on the lens to ensure that the
image sharpness is the same as when the dome is in place.
• To set the field of view of the varifocal lens, loosen the focal length
screw and turn the mechanism until the required view is displayed on
the monitor. (Image goes out of focus.)
• Focus the image on the monitor by loosening the focus screw and
turning the mechanism until the image is in focus.
• Readjust the focal length if necessary.
• Repeat these two adjustments until the desired view is in focus.
• Tighten both screws.
Remove the adjustment cap from the lens and the S1460 adapter cable
from the monitoring jack.
Closing the unit
When the camera position is set and all adjustments have been made, close
the unit.
• Place the inner liner in position and align the opening with the lens.
• Screw the dome into place and if necessary clean its surface with a soft
cloth.
• Place the sealing ring and the trim ring over the dome.
• Align the tamper resistant screw in the trim ring with a thread hole in
the mounting base.
• Use the special screwdriver supplied to tighten the tamper resistant
screw.
