1 Introduction
This guide covers the installation, mounting, electrical installation and setup of the iDOL 65 Camera. The man-
ual provides the user, installer and electrician with the basic knowledge on how to mount and connect the iDOL
65 to the DOL Omni Cloud.
The electrical installation section is intended primarily for electricians commissioning and servicing the system.
Note that the iDOL 65 may only be opened for service and troubleshooting with the power supply connected by
qualified personnel.
How to set up the cloud and how the installer logs in as ‘Configurator’ is described in the User Guide for DOL
Omni.
Important: Before mounting the iDOL 65 in the house it is important that the customers account in the
Omni cloud is prepared, also that the placement of the iDOL 65 in the house is defined (FarmLayout).
It is also important that the installer is created as ‘Configurator’ in the Omni cloud and has already been
logged into his account on his mobile phone via dol Omni WebUI.
2 Product description
The iDOL 65 Camera measures the weight of finishers. The iDOL 65 uses a camera to estimate the weight
based on the size of the pig, i.e. height, width and length, etc.
The weight data is automatically uploaded to the DOL Omni cloud and can be viewed either in an internet
browser on the DOL Omni web-page or through any supported farm management systems.
3 Setup
The full process for unboxing the iDOL 65 to fully operational is described in steps and later elaborated in the
individual sections.
• Make sure that the pen where the iDOL 65 is installed is empty until the camera is ready for use.
• Unbox and install the iDOL 65 as described in this manual This includes mounting, electrical installation
and registration of location
• Install local network in the livestock house and connect in to the Internet/WAN
• Register the location of the iDOL 65 by means of the DOL Omni WebUI, see the section Registration of lo-
cation and calibration of camera [}5]
• Calibrate the camera. Note that to complete the calibration, the camera must be clean
• Led pigs into the pen and the system is fully operational
Make sure to read the full guide before you start mounting the iDOL 65.
4 Mounting
The iDOL 65 must be mounted above the feed dispenser as shown in Figure 1. It is important that the camera
is hung horizontally to enable calibration.
No.: Description: Value:
1 The box front must be facing the pen floor. Maximum angle compared to
vertical (parallel to the floor)
< +/- 4°
2 Height above the floor (measured from the front of the box) 2.2-2.4m
3 Distance from pen wall 0.6-0.8m
4 Displacement compared to center of feed dispenser +/- 0.5 m
5 The largest side of the box must be roughly parallel to the side wall con-
taining the feed dispenser. Maximum angle between these two
+/- 15°

Table 1: Demands for correct iDOL 65 mounting.
The mounting should be done a manner that minimizes any movement and vibrations. Direct sunlight into the
pen should be avoided.
Figure 1: Illustration of iDOL 65 mounting.
The bottom of the box has mounting holes according
to the VESA standard with distances of 50, 75 and
100 mm, respectively.
Figure 2: The box can be mounted with the enclosed screws from the side, in the bottom of the box
or at the corners.

5 Electrical Installation
The electrical installation must be made as specified below:
Cable tie 200 x 4.8mm
Terminal block
Screw 3x20 TX 10
Cable relief bracket
Figure 3: Inside the iDOL 65 box. Make sure that cables and wires are connected as illustrated.
Yellow/green (PE), Blue (N), Brown (P). Use the two cable relief brackets to secure the power cable.
The LAN cable must be led under the plastic bracket and fastened with the enclosed cable ties.
The box is prepared for forwarding the supply from one box to the next.
Network
The camera must have access to the Internet via one of the two Ethernet ports. The Ethernet cable must not
exceed 100m.
The iDOL 65 is equipped with two Ethernet ports LAN 1 and LAN 2, meaning that the iDOL 65 can be con-
nected in series. This means that the network from one iDOL 65 can be forwarded to the next. LAN 1 is used in
direction towards the router and LAN 2 to the subsequent iDOL 65 in the series.
iDOL 65 requires a stable connection with a minimum bandwidth of 1Mbit/sec. Download and 0.5Mbit/sec. up-
load.
The network (connection to internet) must allow for:
• A dynamically allocated IP for IDOL 65 (DHCP)
• TCP I/O access to port 8883 (secure MQTT)
• TCP I/O access to port 443 (secure HTTP)
• TCP/UDP I/O access to port 53 (DNS)
• TCP/UDP I/O access to port 123 (Time server)

6 Registration of location and calibration of camera
As a part of the installation it must be registered where each of the iDOL 65 cameras are mounted.
Note that the camera must be connected to power and the network and must be online during this
process.
6.1 Login
Use the browser on you mobile phone and log into the DOL Omni Cloud as ‘Configurator’.
• Open the browser and find https://omni.dol-sensors.com
• Enter user name and password
6.2 Register the placement of the camera
• Search for the iDOL 65 you want to register.
• When the iDOL 65 for registration is selected, enter the DeviceId (DEVICE ID) found on the label inside the
iDOL 65 box.
• Then enter the key (KEY) shown on the label.
• Press Save.
The camera will go though the initial states described in the section Camera status and troubleshooting [}7].
This means that when the camera is ready for calibration, the Power LED is ON and the Error 2 LED is flash-
ing.
To the left: the screen where the iDOL 65 is searched for and found. To the right: iDOL 65 selected for setup.

Product label on the outside of the iDOL 65 box also shows the key for
registration.
6.3 Calibrate the camera
• Press CALIBRATE DEVICE.
Duration of the calibration is approx. 5 min. When the calibration is successfully completed, the camera enters
the operational state. This means that the Power LED is ON and both Error LEDs are OFF. The camera is now
ready for pig weighing.

8 Maintenance
The iDOL 65 itself does not need maintenance, but must be cleaned regularly as dust and excrements from
flies etc. might block the sight of the camera and hinder heat produced by the iDOL 65 to be led away.
Clean the iDOL 65 with water and a soft brush or cloth. Do not use:
• High-pressure cleaner
• Highly compressed air
• Solvents
• Corrosive/caustic agents
• Alcohol-based disinfectants
Wipe the front dry after cleaning.
Make sure not to move the camera during cleaning. If the position of the iDOL 65 is changed, the camera
needs to be re-calibrated.
