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:

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.

2.1. 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

M5 HexAllen 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/3.5A output 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, 2
8
= 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.

Set all of protocol switches to ON; the speed EPTZ3000/EPTZ3000I will enter a
self-test mode.

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
Note: 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.
Note: The length of the screws depends on the surface material. The mentioned screws
are used in the normal concrete surface.
