Removing The Housing
Before mounting or positioning the camera you will fi rst need to remove the camera
housing by following the 3 quick steps below.
Press and hold in the push release and then
gently pull the base away from the camera.
This will produce a small gap between the
base and the camera. Do not attempt to pull the
base off of the camera.
1
Place the tip of a small slotted screwdriver
into the gap and work your way around the
camera releasing the two holding clips located
at potions A and B . The top housing can then
be removed from the base.
2Push

There are 2 small tabs either side of the lens
on the lens mount. Using these 2 tabs, rotate
the lens mount as required.
Loosen the small screw on either side of the
camera lens mount. Tilt the lens as required
and then tighten the screws again to secure.
Finally, the black plastic dome now has 3
clips holding it in place. Use a small slotted
screwdriver to force the clips outwards whilst
gently pulling the dome away from the base.

Mounting The Camera
Rotating The Camera Module
Remove the 2 crews holding the which secure
the camera module. Push the four clips which
hold the camera module in place outwards
whilst gently pulling the module away from
the base.
1
Pull down the clip which secures the black
mounting plate. Twist the mounting plate
clockwise and remove from the base.
2
Note: Take care when mounting the
camera to soft materials such as
ceiling tiles. Applying too much
pressure when reassembling
the camera could damage the
mounting surface.
Once removed the mounting plate can be
fixed to the mounting surface.
3
Looking from above the camera, loosen the
screws either side of the camera module.
Rotate the module as required then tighten
the screws to secure.

Powering The Camera
The dome requires a 12V DC regulated power supply and has a standard 2.1mm
DC socket for connecting the power. It is recommended to use a power supply that is
rated higher than the current consumption of the camera i.e. the current consumption
is 350mA add approximately 30% so use a power supply of 500mA or above.
Accessing The Camera’s Menu
The camera’s menu system can be accessed and controlled in three ways. The fi rst
method is using the in-line joystick on the camera’s video lead. The second method is
to use an up the Co-ax controller which can be done whilst next to the DVR. The third
method is to use RS485 control equipment such as a keyboard or DVR.
Up The Co-ax Menu Control
Up the Co-ax otherwise known as UTC is a method of controlling the cameras OSD
using the Co-ax cable. This is achieved using a REM088 in-line controller. The big
benefi t of confi guring a camera via UTC is that it can be done next to the DVR and
monitor. The Co-ax cable carrying the camera’s video is simply connected to the
controller which is then connected to the DVR. Once the camera has been setup, the
controller can be removed and the camera is then connected to the DVR as normal.

Fault Finding
The table below describes common problems and possible solutions.
Fault Possible Cause Possible Solution
Interference On The
Camera Picture
Poor or inadequate cabling
or an unregulated or poorly
regulated power supply.
Make sure you are using a regulated 12V DC
power supply.
No Picture The camera cannot function
without the correct working
power supply.
Step 1 Test that the camera has the correct
voltage supplying it, you must do this with
the camera connected so that there is
load on the PSU. The camera should have
at least 10.5V DC connected to it.
Step 2 Check there is and image at the camera
end with a test monitor. If there is a
picture here but not at the DVR it could be
one of the following:
A. Video loss in Composite cable as run
too long usually you would get a
picture up to aroun120mtrs (Remedied
by fitting a video amp).
B. Ensure that the BNC - BNC lead that
you connect between the camera and
monitor has no shorts or open circuits.
If you are making your own lead, don’t
forget the lead must have two wires
connected to complete the circuit,
Video and Ground.
C. No Video signal down CAT5 or
CAT5+2. Check you have used a “pair
of cores” not individual cores from
different pairs.
One Camera Picture
Overlaid On Another
Using CAT5
Camera cores and pairs
mixed up.
Check you have used a “pair of cores” not
individual cores from different pairs.
The Picture’s Colour
Changes Constantly
Fluorescent lighting omits
an electromagnetic field
which can cause colour roll.
Move the camera further away form any
fluorescent lighting.
