FCC Warning (U.S.A)
www.sunbatech.com
The device has been tested in compliance with limits set by Part 15 of Federal
Communication Commission (Class B). The operation of the device is thus
limited by the following two conditions:
1) it is not permitted to cause harmful interference to any authorized radio
communications, and 2) it must accept any interference it receives.
WARNING: Please test the camera locally by directly
connecting to the default power adapter from the package
before mounting it outside. Stay at least 24 hours to test
both daytime and night vision IR LED.

Camera Compatibility
★Analog cameras require a decoder to display images on a monitor★
A decoder can be a DVR or a video capture card. Some TV also supports
CVBS signal. See the compatibility list below.
1.Conventional Analog (ex: 801 Series, 805 Series, 604 Series)
A.Compatible with any Digital Video Recorder supports Pelco-D Protocol
with RS485 interface;
B.Alternatively, a Video Capture Card can be installed on PC but it is not
recommended and an unpopular choice given the price and functional
limitations.
C.TV for CCTV cameras with built-in CVBS signal decoder.
2.Analog High Denition (AHD) (ex: 805-AHD20X, 801-AHD20X,
507-AHD20X)
AHD 1080P Camera (aka. AHD-H): Only compatible with HD-AHD
1080P DVR. Not compatible with conventional 960H DVR, HD-TVI,
HD-SDI, HD-CVI and Lorex MPX.

Camera Installation Tips
AHD 720P Camera (aka. AHD-M): Only compatible with HD-AHD 1080P
DVR or HD-AHD 720P DVR. Not compatible with conventional 960H DVR,
HD-TVI, HD-SDI, HD-CVI and Lorex MPX.
Incompatible DVR will result in problems such as B/W display, no video or
the loss of PTZ control.
Bench Test
When you rst receive the PTZ camera, please make sure it works
properly before mount the camera outside. Note PTZ dome cameras have
higher power requirements than bullet cameras and corresponding IP
cameras. Therefore, how the unit is powered can be critical to its
functionality. Please make sure the unit itself is working, and try
eliminating all cabling factors to set up the bench test.
How to Test Locally
In short, in a bench test, do NOT extend the power line. Please connect
the camera with its default adapter. For example, if you have previously
wired a xed lens bullet camera and you remove the old camera and plug
it with Sunba PTZ dome camera, this is NOT a bench test given two units
have different power requirements.
Why Test Locally
The reason you should NOT extend the power cable during the bench
test is because DC power drops along the cable. Underpower causes
problems such as 1) screen ickering, 2) unstable infrared (no/off
automatically) 3) camera spinning recklessly. A bench test helps you rule
out all problems caused by power supply.

Recommended Power Extension Methods
1) AC cable: Make sure your AC power source is close enough to the
camera. The easiest way is to get a premade AC extension cable (no
distance limit). Power strip is an example.
2) DC cable: Make sure the wire is AWG18 or thicker (distance dependent).
The thicker the cable, the smaller the electrical resistance and the longer it
can run without voltage loos.
WARNING: Please strictly follow any applicable local security camera
installation rules.

Address Setting
RS485 Cable
Please use any twisted pair from Ethernet cable (cat5/5e/6). Please ensure
the direction of +/- are consistent on both DVR and camera’s end. 3-in-1
cables are for bullet cameras and are not recommended.
More info about installation http://analog.sunba.net
DON’T
1) If it is an infrared camera, do not put a dome cover on the camera which
will block and obscure the IR Led.
2) Use a cat5 as the extension for power adapter. Cat5 has strong electrical
resistance (usually only AWG24) and a small distance can cause underpower.
3) Install the camera next to an electrical cabling which will cause
interference and degrade video quality.
4) Dissemble the camera without notifying Sunba support team. This may
void the warranty.
WARNING：Failure to set the address bit will cause inability to PTZ.
Important: You MUST reboot the camera (Turn power off and on) before the
soft address change takes effect.
Background: Setting a virtual address (aka. Soft address) helps you
recognize your dome easily from your DVR. Please setthe camera’s address
before using this dome. No same address (or ID) is allowed for more than 1
PTZ camera. By default, the address of the camera is set to 1.
You can set the address of the camera from the camera’s built-in OSD menu
using preset 95+call. NOTE: ADDR TYPE must be SOFT for soft address
setup. Don’t forget to modify the correct address in the DVR’s PTZ Control
setup page correspondingly (see next chapter).

Camera PTZ Setup
The Special Preset List
The camera has auto identication in baud rate 2400,4800 and 9600.
If your camera is having any issue, apart from 1) protocol selection or 2)
address setting, it is not likely to be relevant to the PTZ Setup.
Below is the recommended PTZ Setup for Sunba analog camera:
Power off Memory Function
Every time the camera reboots, it will come back to the PTZ position it stops
before power off.
PTZ Preset Position
Sunba dome cameras can set preset PTZ positions for which cameras can
memorize and travel directly by calling the preset. Preset Positions are
represented by numbers.
Special Presets
Preset numbers not associated with positions but to commands that cameras
can follow such as changing infrared mode, set up camera auto scan
boundaries etc.
What does XX + CALL Mean? Example for 95+CALL below:
Every DVR has a built-in PTZ control panel on the screen. With Sunba’s DVR,
for example, enter 95 in the preset box on the control panel and hit "start"

to call preset 95, which opens the OSD menu of the camera. The "start"
button may have other names in different DVRs; it may be named as
"enter", "call" or "go to" subject to the specic manufacturer. Please refer
to the manual of your DVR to learn the specic way of setting up/calling
preset. 

5.DWELL TIME
The time that the dome stays at each preset during patrol. Valid value 5 ~60 s.
6.LED MODE
A. AUTO MODE: Turn on and off IR LED automatically according to the
value of photoresister. If the value of the ambient environment (CURRENT
LEVEL) is ≥ theIR ON SENS, thenthe LED will be turned on automatically,
vice versa. Larger CURRENT LEVEL is equivalent to darker environment.
B. MANUAL mode: Openand closethe IR LED manually. This can be
accomplished using The Special Presets (see the preset list above).
7. IR ON SENS
The value of photoresister to turn on the IR LED, default is 210.
8. IR OFF SENS
The value of photoresister to turn off the IR LED, default is 185.
Note: Two valuesof IR ON and OFF need to keep30 of the gap to avoid the
problem of IR LED blinking repeatedly.

Troubleshooting
For AHD camera users, unless an AHD+DVR combo is purchased, please
rst check your DVR compatibility before reading the form below.
Incompatible DVR can cause problems such as B/W display, blurry image, no
video or lack of PTZ function. Feel free to contact Sunba for double check.
Built-in Self Test
When powered up, the speed dome will automatically begin a
self-diagnostic process during which the camera will pan horizontally and
vertically to make sure PTZ, lens and other parts of the camera are
functional. Please contact our technical staff if a self-test does not happen on
your unit. Please refrain from disassembling the unit before contacting us.

2. RS485 in wrong polarity: switch the two wires to ensure
the it matches the +/- of the RS485 ports;
3. Loosen belt during transportation: tighten the tilt and
pan belt (ask Sunba for instruction).
The signal of camera and DVR are not consistent (both
needs to be PAL or NTSC); this may happen after a reset.
Defective power adapter; test with another adapter to
conrm and ask Sunba to send a replacement adapter.
