General Information
Product overview
The Verint® RP 400 Series mini dome camera housings provide a reliable solution for mobile vehicles such as
buses, trams or trains.
The RP 400 Series has a vandal-resistant mini dome housing that can be either wall or ceiling mounted. The RP
400 Series provides high-resolution pictures for day or night operation, and is available in a color or black and
white model.
The lightly smaller housing has rounded edges to minimize the risk of injury to passengers. The cameras are
designed to operate in very bright but also in dark places and under extreme weather conditions. The RP 400
Series meets common mobile transportation standards for Europe.
When combined with our wide range of recorders and monitors, the RP 400 Series provides a comprehensive
networked digital video surveillance solution to help transit personnel protect people and property, refute false
claims, and reduce frivolous lawsuits.

Installation
Mounting
Information on camera mounting location
•Keep an adequate distance to direct heat sources.
•Do not point the camera towards artificial lighting, the sun, the sky or in the direction of a window. The
best image quality will be achieved if both camera and lighting point to the area you want to record.
•Reduce the picture section to the essential area and install the camera as close to the object as
possible.
•Avoid head lights as back light in the video picture (also caused by reflections, e.g. on window panes).
Mounting the camera on a wall or ceiling
Always proceed in the following order to mount the camera:

Installation
RP 406K
•Fix the camera mounting plate on an adequate surface with the mounting materials that come in the
shipment. The camera can be installed on a ceiling or wall. (Dimensions – see detailed view on page
6)
•Loosen the inside camera ball fixture ring and set the required viewing angle. Ensure that the lens is
not touched by fingers. Then fix the camera position by locking the ball fixture ring. When mounting
the camera on a wall, the ball fixture ring may be exchanged for the flat ring included with the
shipment, if necessary. This has a low adjustment range in the vertical axis, but it does not have a
clamp over the camera unit. This way the lens is not covered when mounted on a wall.
•Screw on the housing once the correct viewing angle has been set and ensure the housing seal fits
correctly.
•Protect the housing from unauthorized opening by using the fixing screw with the hexagonal socket
screw key included in the shipment.
RP 406K - IC
•Make a suitable fitting – mounting aperture (diameter 60mm, fitting depth approx. 35mm) for the
fitted camera and fasten the camera with the mounting material included in the shipment. The camera
can be installed on a ceiling or wall. (Dimensions – see detailed view on page 6)
•Loosen the inside camera ball fixture ring and set the required viewing angle. Ensure that the lens is
not touched by fingers. Then fix the camera position by locking the ball fixture ring.
•Screw on the housing once the correct viewing angle has been set with the mounting ring and ensure
the housing seal fits correctly.
•Protect the housing from unauthorized opening by using the fixing screw with the hexagonal socket
screw key included in the shipment. The fixing screw is screwed into the mounting ring.

•Connect the video output signal of the camera (BNC jack) using a suitable video cable (insulated
coaxial cable, 75 Ohm) to the designated video input of the recorder. Make sure that the BNC
connector fits correctly and cleanly.
•The recorder provides service voltage to the attached cameras (12 V DC). Use a suitable cable for
connecting the power supply and make sure the connector fits correctly and cleanly and has the
correct polarity. Operate the camera exclusively using the normal service voltage indicated. The mating
component of the system voltage plug (Wago male) is included in the scope of delivery.
Initial operation
Check to see that the camera provides an acceptable video signal and that the picture section was chosen
correctly.
The camera switches on automatically to a black and white signal at dusk. This ensures a higher level of detail
recognition under poor lighting conditions.
Please never open the dome camera itself. There are no further setting options on the inside of the camera
module.
