Introducing the IM-PTZ-16
The IM-PTZ-16 micro pan tilt zoom camera has been especially designed for practical and extreme applications such as
marine, military and emergency service vehicles.
In addition to it’s remarkably compact and sleek design, the PTZ is water-resistant and has anti-vibration and anti-corrosion
properties.
Features:
•Full weather proof, anti vibration and anti-corrosion. IP66 certified.
•Compact integrated design with remote controllable telemetry.
•Random scan, cruise and pattern scan.
•Continuous 360 degree pan, 180 degree tilt (90 degree with another 90 degree auto-flip).
•100 user definable preset positions.
•Auto focus, white balance and back light compensation.
•Proportional Pan / Tilt speed in accordance with degree of zoom.
Functions:
Day / Night Function
The PTZ-16 features a true mechanical Day / Night filter that switches the camera from colour to monochrome in low light
conditions for added clarity. The camera can produce clear pictures even in extremely low-light conditions, as low as 0.01
Lux.
Proportional Pan
Proportional pan automatically reduces or increases the pan and tilt speeds in proportion to the degree of zoom. When
zoomed in (telephoto) the pan and tilt speeds will be significantly slower for a given amount of joystick movement than at
wide zoom position. This prevents the image from moving too fast on the monitor when zoomed in.
Save / Call Preset
The PTZ-16 has the facility to learn 100 positions (including zoom and focus values). Users can then send the camera
automatically to a position by simply selecting the desired preset position number, or by hitting a dedicated key. Please note,
presets are not available on the KBD-16 v1.
Lens Control
Users can adjust zoom wide and zoom telephoto to a ratio of 26 times zoom. Focus is set to auto-focus as standard.
Autofocus can be overridden with certain control interfaces. Similarly, the camera Iris defaults to automatically but can be
overridden with certain control interfaces.

Lens Control (continued...)
The following factors may affect autofocus:
•Target not central within field of view.
•Multiple targets are near and far simultaneously in the field of view.
•Target object extremely bright and causes lens flare.
•Target moving too fast.
•Target is behind glass which has water droplets or dust contamination
•Target is too dark or vague.
Auto White Balance
The PTZ-16 automatically adjusts white balance (WB) according to the amount of background light to provide a true colour
representation of the field of view.
Back Lighting Compensation (BLC)
If the field of view has a bright background the target subject may appear dark or as a silhouette as the iris struggles with the
variance of light. Backlight compensation enhances the target objects in the center of the picture. The camera processor
uses the center of the picture as a focal point from which to adjust the Iris.
Auto Cruise
The camera has the facility to store 39 preset positions into a ‘cruise list’ which when actioned will cycle through each
position in the list.
Auto, Random and Frame Scan
•Auto scan - The camera scans 90 degrees in either direction automatically through a 180 degree sweep.
•Random scan - when activated the camera will scan to random positions throughout it’s 360 degree sweep.
•Frame scan - scans the camera 45 degree left and 45 degree right through a 90 degree sweep.
Image Flip
In the majority of installations the PTZ-16 will be installed in a hanging position (upside down), in which case it is necessary
to flip the image. This is achieved via a dip-switch setting or by calling preset position 88 which is reserved for the flip
function.

Installation
This section contains detailed instructions for installing the camera. These instructions assume that the installer has a good
knowledge of installation techniques and is capable of adopting safe installation methods.
Dimensions and Views
Fixing Plate
Use the fixing plate as a drilling template before fixing to the base of the camera using fixing screws ( Item 3 ).
"IMPORTANT!
Before drilling any holes take care to ensure there are no cables, conduits, pipes etc behind the drilling surface.
Be sure to site your camera so that it covers all desired areas and does not foul any doorways or become a hazard in
walkways etc.
Allow sufficient space behind the drilling surface for the umbilical cable and it’s connector.
To extend the cables back to the monitor (or switcher, or recorder), joystick and power source please use the following
cables:
•Power: IM-POW-xx from Iris Innovations, from Iris Innovations, where xx is the length of cable in meters in multiples of 5.
•Video: IM-BNC-xx from Iris Innovations, from Iris Innovations, where xx is the length of cable in meters in multiples of 5.
•Data: IM-JOY-xx from Iris Innovations, from Iris Innovations, where xx is the length of cable in meters in multiples of 5.
•Combined Cable: IM-COMB-PTZ-xx from Iris Innovations, where xx is the length of cable in meters in multiples of 5.

Dip Switch Settings
Before the camera is fixed into place and operated, set the appropriate camera address, protocol and baud rate. This is
done via a bank of dip-switches located underneath a removable cover plate on the under side of the camera (see drawing
on page 5 above and illustration below).

Dip Switch Settings (continued...)
For example, to set the camera’s baud rate to 9600bps, Pelco-P protocol and standard image (not flipped), refer to the
settings shown for Switch Bank 2 in the table below.
!Reboot Camera After Changing Any Dip-Switch Settings.
Connections
The camera is fitted with a 2 meter connection cable which supplies power and data and delivers the composite video
signal. This cable is fitted with a 6 pin screw locking connector. The pin outs are detailed below.
!Observe Extreme Care When Connecting Camera. Avoid Incorrect Polarity Which
!Could Cause Irreparable Damage To Camera.
TIP! If there is no movement from the camera try swapping over the RS485 data wires.
The camera is also shipped with an extension cable pre-made with standardized power and video connectors (Item.6 -
Umbilical Cable). The two data wires are coloured red (RS485 A+) and black (RS485 B-).
!Do Not Confuse the Red and Black Data Wires on the Umbilical For 12VDC Supply!

Power-Up
Upon powering up the PTZ-16, the camera will perform a short self-test sequence during which the camera will pan, tilt and
zoom to it’s ‘mid-pot’ positions. After this sequence is complete the camera is ready to use.
The camera can now be controlled using any suitable PTZ controller that features the supported protocols, the Iris IM-
KBD-16 external controller or a touch screen system. For more information contact Iris Innovations directly or view the
website www.boat-cameras.com.
