Chapter 2
Installation
This chapter provides information on how to install the dome camera.
Use a control keypad or device, such as the Interlogix KTD-405/KTD-405-2D
keypad, to control the dome camera.
Installation environment
When installing your product, consider these factors:
• Handling: Handle the camera carefully. Avoid striking, shaking, etc. Improper
handing or storage could damage the camera.
• Electrical: Install electrical wiring carefully. It should be done by qualified
service personnel. The input electricity to the unit has a tolerance of 24 VAC
± 10%. Do not overload the power cord or adapter.
• Ventilation: Ensure that the location planned for the installation of the
camera is well ventilated.
• Temperature: Do not operate the camera beyond the specified temperature,
humidity or power source ratings. The operating temperature of the indoor
camera is 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F) and that of the outdoor camera is -
40°C to 50°C (-40°F to 122°F). Maximum operating humidity is 90%.
• Moisture: Do not expose the indoor camera to rain or moisture, or try to
operate it in wet areas. The indoor camera is designed for indoor use or
locations only where it is protected from rain and moisture. Turn the power off
immediately if the camera is wet and ask a qualified service person for
servicing. Moisture can damage the camera and also create the danger of
electric shock.
• Cleaning: Clean only with a dry cloth. If the dirt is difficult to remove, use a
mild liquid non-abrasive detergent and wipe gently.

Chapter 2: Installation

• Protect from bright light: Never face the camera towards the sun. Do not
aim the camera at bright objects. Whether the camera is in use or not, never
aim it at the sun or other extremely bright objects. Otherwise, the camera
may be damaged.
• Servicing: Do not attempt to service this camera yourself. Any attempt to
dismantle or remove the covers from this product will invalidate the warranty
and may also result in serious injury. Refer all servicing to qualified service
personnel.
Unpacking the dome camera
When you receive the product, check the package and contents for damage, and
verify that all items are included. If any of the items are damaged or missing,
please contact your local supplier.
Items shipped with the indoor (Figure 2 below) and outdoor (Figure 3 on page 7)

Removing the protective shipping materials
The outdoor dome camera is shipped with a protective tape and PE sheet on the
dome camera for protection. These must be removed before installation.
To remove the shipping materials:
1. Unpack the dome camera.
2. Remove the bubble assembly from the dome
housing by placing your hands on the plastic
ring and pushing up (away from the dome
housing) on the bubble assembly. The bubble
assembly is only held in place by compression,
due to the gasket.

Chapter 2: Installation

3. Remove the protective sheet.
4. Remove the protective tape on top of the
camera block and lens cover.
5. Apply a small amount of lubricant on the
surface of the waterproof rubber gasket.
6. Re-attach the bubble assembly to the dome
camera body by first aligning the center point
(dimple) on the bubble assembly with one of
the four holes in the dome camera housing, as
shown.
7. Place both hands on the bubble assembly ring
and gently press down the bubble assembly.
Make sure that the holes on the bubble
assembly align with the holes in the dome
camera housing.

Chapter 2: Installation
TruVision PTZ 36X Camera User Manual 9
Caution: Do not press on the top of the bubble as
shown in the figure as it might damage the unit.
8. Secure the bubble assembly to the dome
camera housing with the supplied security
screw. Use the supplied security TORX wrench
to tighten the security screw.
9. Further secure the bubble assembly in place by
loosening (unscrewing) the two slotted screws
that are located on the bubble assembly so that
they are flush with the outside edge of the
dome camera housing.
10. Remove the plastic protective sheet from the
bubble.
11.Set the DIP switches.

1. Configure the dome camera’s DIP switches, which are located on the top of
the dome camera.
2. Set the dome camera communication protocol.
3. Set the RS-485 communication DIP switch.
4. Verify and set the communication termination, if required.
5. Set the dome camera ID.
6. Mount the dome camera.
7. Wire the dome camera.
8. Connect the dome camera to a monitor.
9. Program the dome camera.

DIP switches and connectors
Configure the dome camera’s ID and communication protocol before connecting
the analog dome camera to other devices. The DIP switches used for
configuring these settings are located on the top of the dome camera housing.
See Figure 4 below for the location of the DIP switches on both the indoor and
outdoor dome cameras.

Setting the dome camera communication
protocol
The TruVision PTZ 36X Camera can use several different protocols for
communication. To select a protocol, you must set the protocol DIP switches to
the correct sequence of 1s (on) and 0s (off).
To set a dome camera protocol using the DIP switches:
1. Locate the protocol DIP switch block (see E, Figure 4 on page 10).
2. Using Table 3 below, find the DIP switch sequence for the desired protocol
and set the switches accordingly.

Setting the RS-485 communication
RS-485 is the interface that connects the dome camera to the control device.
Consequently the RS-485 setup of the dome camera and the control device
must be identical.
Locate the communication DIP switch block (see D, Figure 4 on page 10). See
Figure 5 for a depiction of the communication DIP switches of the dome camera.
The RS-485 default setting is half-duplex (see Figure 5). This setting should only
be changed by a qualified CCTV specialist. DIP switches SW3 and SW4 are
used for termination and Line Lock adjustment respectively. The SW5 DIP
switch is used to restore the dome camera to the factory default status.

Setting the dome camera site ID
Before turning on the dome camera, you must set the dome camera site ID.
Each dome camera connected to the same network must have a unique ID. Use
the 10-bit DIP switch to set the dome camera’s site ID setting.
To set a dome camera site’s ID:
1. Locate the dome camera site ID DIP switch block (B, Figure 4 on page 10).
2. Using Table 5 below, determine which DIP switches need to be set to the on
position. The equivalent value of the switches will add up to create the site ID
number for that dome camera. See Figure 6 on page 16 for an example.
3. Place the switches that correspond to those values in the On position.
4. Carefully record the site ID of each dome camera installed.
