1.3.2. EPTZ3000/EPTZ3000I Base Board
The base board that is on the bottom of the housing connects to power cable, video
cable, control cable, alarm cable, fan and heater. In order to connect to cables, the board
needs to be taken off, and put back after finishing connecting to all cables. The connectors
of cable names are marked on the board in white text. The details of the alarm connector
(JP5) are shown on the APPENDIX A.
For EPTZ3000 outdoor model, JP1, JP3 and JP6 that are two-pin connectors need to
be taken off during installing. JP1 and JP3 are connectors for heater, and they can be
switched. JP6 is a fan controller connector that turns on/off of the fan. The 3 cables are too
short to be connected to a wrong connector when putting them back.

1.5. EPTZ3000/EPTZ3000I Quick Operation Guide (Work with EKB500)
EPTZ3000/EPTZ3000I and EKB500 (Keyboard) can work together by using
factory default setting. You just need to connect cables by the following steps:
1. Connect the RS-485 cable to EPTZ3000/EPTZ3000I and a keyboard (EKB500).
2. Connect a video cable from EPTZ3000/EPTZ3000I to a monitor.
3. Connect the power to the EPTZ3000/EPTZ3000I and a keyboard (EKB500).
After the EPTZ3000/EPTZ3000I finishes the self-test mode, you can start to
operate the EPTZ3000/EPTZ3000I via the keyboard.
To operate the EPTZ3000/EPTZ3000I:
IRIS

Zoom INZoom OUT
1. Shift the Joystick up/down or right/left to view from camera.
2. Turn the top of the Joystick to zoom in/out.
3. Press Zoom In/Out, Focus F. /N. and IRIS +/- function keys to operate the
EPTZ3000/EPTZ3000I.

2. EPTZ3000/EPTZ3000I INSTALLATION
2.1. Packing List
There are 3 boxes that are housing, bulb and mechanical part with a camera module,
one wall mount bracket, one power adapter and one tool packet in the package. The detail
accessories list below:
 Housing x1
 Bulb x1
 Mechanical part with a camera module x1
 Wall mount bracket x1
 Adapter x1
 Tool packet
 Glove x2
 M5 Hex Allen wrench x1
 Pin connector x1
 M5 screw (Hex) x3 for wall mount bracket fixing
 M3 screw x3 for bulb fixing
2.2. Cable Needed
Power Cable
An adapter with 24V AC/3.5Aoutput provides the power to the EPTZ3000/EPTZ3000I.
An extension power line may be needed.
Note: The input AC voltage range of an adapter depends on different area.
Please make sure the voltage range before installing.

2-13
Video Cable
A BNC cable is used for connecting an EPTZ3000/EPTZ3000I to a DVR or a monitor.
An amplifier may be needed if the video cable is too long.
Control Cable
Basically, EPTZ3000/EPTZ3000I uses a differential pair to connect to other devices
by cascading. A cable that has low signal decline can be used as a control cable.
Alarm Cable
An alarm cable is not included in the packing list. A suitable wire that has low signal
decline can be used as an alarm cable.
2.3. Initial Setup
Initial setup includes dome address, communication protocol, transmission speed,
video format, and terminal resistance settings.All of the settings should be confirmed
before the dome is installed. The control-related setting that is address, communication
protocol and transmission speed have to be set consistently with the control device such
as a keyboard or a DVR.
Notice: Please make sure the power is off before setting, and restart the
EPTZ3000/EPTZ3000I to enable a new value after changing.

2-14
2.3.1. Address Setting
The address code of the EPTZ3000/EPTZ3000I should be set to correspond
properly with a control device to control multiple dome cameras. The address codes
are made up by the dipswitch SW1 (8 bits) on the PCB board. The 8 bits dipswitch
indicates the binary coded of the address, and there are 256 addresses can be
selected (0 ~ 255, 28= 256). It also means that there are up to 256 dome cameras that
can cascade on the RS-485 bus. The dipswitch setting and the indicated address are
represented in the following chart.
Note: The factory default address is 1.
Notice: Please make sure the power is off before setting, and restart the
EPTZ3000/EPTZ3000I to enable a new value after changing.

2.3.2. Communication Protocol Setting
The 1st, 2nd and 3rd bits of the SW2 are used to set communication protocol. The
factory default protocol is EVF.

Set all of protocol switches to ON; the speed EPTZ3000/EPTZ3000I will enter a
self-test mode.
2.3.3. Transmission Speed Setting (Baud Rate Setting)
The 4th and 5th bits of the SW2 on the PCB board are used to set the Baud Rate. The
default baud rate setting is 9600.

2.3.4. RS-485 Bus Terminal Resistance
For central controlling, the terminal resistance should be set for the device that is the
furthest one away from the controller. The 8th bit on the SW2 is a switch to enable or
disable the terminal resistance. When it is switched ON, the BUS terminal resistance is
connected.

2.4. Rack and Speed Dome Installation
2.4.1. Installation Requirements
1. Installation should be handled by a qualified service agent and should comply with
all local regulations. Service personnel should expect potential problems such as
surface strength, surface material, falling objects, outer breaches, building vibration
or other similar conditions.
2. Check for all necessary materials, and ensure if the selected installation location is
suitable for the EPTZ3000/EPTZ3000I.
2.4.2. EPTZ3000 Dome Camera Wall Mount Installation
Notice: Installation location that is a wall, a pole or a ceiling needs to support above five
times the total weight of the camera assembly (about 16 kg) to avoid shaken images, and
dropping.
1. Set wall mount bracket on the wall. Mark the center of the holes on the wall against
the bracket holes. Use a drill to make 4 holes that can be nailed 4 0.25” X 1.25”
screws at the marks.
Notice: The length of the screws depends on the surface material. The mentioned screws
are used in the normal concrete surface.
