1 PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
1.1 PACKAGE CONTENTS
IP IR Speed dome 1pc
Wall mount bracket 1pc
Power supply 1pc
Screws kits 1pc
User manual 1pc
CD (with CMS etc.) 1pc
1.2 FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
3D Allocation
Allows the camera to move diagonally while using zoom function
Pattern
A series of pan, tilt, zoom and focus movements from a single programmable dome. Up
to 4 patterns may be programmed for the dome camera.
Auto Flip
When the Speed Dome camera is mounted, it can track a moving target in a
path directly below the camera. When the camera reaches the moving object directly below the
dome, the dome will rotate to keep the image in the correct view
Focus
The auto focus enables the camera to focus automatically to maintain a clear image. Under the
following conditions camera will not auto focus on the camera target:
(1) Target is not in the center of the screen;
(2) Attempting to view images that are far and near at the same time;
(3) Target is very bright object, such as neon lamp, etc;
(4) Targets are behind glass covered with water droplets or dust;
(5) Targets are moving quickly;
(6) Low contrast large area targets, such as walls;
(7) Targets are too dark or faint.
BLC (Back Light Compensation)
BLC(Back Light Compensation) is used to brighten an image in the foreground
with a bright area behind it such as sunlight, limiting the affect of silhouette
Iris Control
Factory default is automatic camera aperture; in this mode the camera senses changes in ambient
light and through moving and adjusting the lens aperture it makes the brightness of the output
image stable.
Ratio Speed
Intelligent pan and tilt speed is variable depend on the zoom factor. When zooming in, the speed
will become slower and when zooming out, the speed will become faster.
360 Scan
360° continuously scans the display scene at a set speed in a horizontal direction under the
condition that pitch angle remains the same. In the scanning status, operator can move the joystick
to exit from scanning.
Preset
A Position preset stores pan, tilt, zoom and focusing positions with predefined
camera presets. Position presets can be call directly, assigned to actions or
applied as “HOME” position.

Guard Tour Scan
Dome patrol scans according to certain edited preset order.
A-B Scan
The dome scans back and forth between two preset points (A & B).
Power Off Memory
This feature allows the dome to resume its previous status after power is restored.
Park Action
The Park function applies to the predefined functions such as Preset, Tour,
Pattern, or Scan function after the dome has been idle for a programmed time.
