1.3Main Functions Description:
1. Set address coding, baud rate, control protocol:
Each command transmitted to the camera has its own address coding,
baud rate and control protocol. APTZ camera will respond only if its own
address coding, baud rate and control protocol matches the ones of the
command. In order to set the camera address coding, baud rate and
control protocol settings please refer to the DIP settings.
2. Auto speed matching to focal length technical:
Based on user-friendly design, the camera's intelligent response
mechanism will be generate different tracking speeds according to the
proximity of the focal length of the camera. The camera will automatically
adjust the horizontal and vertical tracking speed, so that manual operation
is simpler and track targets become easier.
4. Auto Flip:
When the lens is pulled all the way down (vertically) by the operator, the
lens will auto-rotate 180° and continue the move turning up immediately
after the 90°, this allows a direct watch to the back of the scene in order to
achieve the full 180°continuous vertical surveillance.
5. Set and call preset position:
Preset function stores a given state of the ball. The PTZ memory will store
the horizontal angle; tilt angle and camera lens focal length. "Calling" these
parameters will quickly send the PTZ ball to the saved location. The
operator can quickly and easily store and call preset points by using a PTZ
keyboard, infrared controller or other equipment such as DVR which
supports PTZ feature. The PTZ supports up to 256 preset points.

4
6. Lens Control:
(1) Zoom control
Users can control the PTZ lens in order to adjust the zoom level of the
camera and get wide/narrow view according to the scene.
(2) Focus Control
System default is auto-focus. The object in center of the screen will be the
subject of focus. In exceptional circumstances the user can manually
adjust the focus in order to maintain a clear picture.
When in momentarily manual focus state (achieved by Focus +/- controls
on the control unit), any shift of the camera by user or preset call will
reinstate the auto-focus.
In the following situations the camera lens may not autofocus on the
desired objective:
a. Target is not in the screen center;
b. The target has different parts that are both near and far.
c. The target is light objects such as neon lighting, spotlights and other
luminous items;
d. Target is behind interfering layer (Such as droplets or glass).
e. Large monotone area targets, such as walls.
f. Large area targets, such as walls;
g. Target is located in extremely dark/foggy environment.
7. Aperture Control:
Users can control the lens in order to manually adjust the aperture size to
get the required picture brightness.
8. Backlight Compensation:
When the backlight compensation function is on, the camera will disregard
bright areas in the scene and will open the shutter further more to light up
dark areas in the scene.
9. White Balance:
The camera will reproduce color shadings according to the changes in
ambient light in order to achieve true color shades in any conditions.

5
10. Night Mode (color / Black & White conversion):
Cameras with night mode, automatic color / monochrome conversion mode,
in accordance with changes in ambient light automatic conversion CCD
illumination. Such as: adequate lighting during the day due to the use of
general illumination to ensure colorful images. In the night illumination can
be automatically changed to black and white images show a clear interest.
11. Cruise:
Cruise can be built from several preset points. The presets for this speed
dome can be configured in consecutive order only (you may skip a
non-relevant preset, but you cannot change the order of the called
presets).Dwell durations can be configured according to the needs. The
cruise can be activated using the OSD or the RS-485 controller.
12. Pattern scanning:
Pattern scan will record any movement of the camera's ball in order to
make a consecutive scan with special characteristics.
13. Continuous scan:
Continuous horizontal scan with adjustable height and speed. It can be
triggered in power-up or RS-485 controller.
14. Random Scan:
Random horizontal scan with adjustable height and speed; unlike the
continuous scan, the random scan will shift the camera left and right and
dwell in random points. It can be triggered in power-up, by OSD or RS-485
controller.
15. Area scan
Continuous horizontal scan with adjustable height, speed and left/right
borders which the camera is confined to. It can be triggered in power-up,
by alarm or RS-485 controller.
Chapter 2 Equipment installation:
2.1DIP switch setting:
