8.4 PRINCIPLE OF TERMINATION
Every device that is connected at the end of the communication data line must be
terminated by either the DIP switch setting or an appropriate device such as a
termination jumper to prevent potential control signal errors.
See Figure 6 for termination switch settings and Figure 7 for examples of devices
requiring termination. Note: Total length of the cable for communication should
not exceed 1.2Km or .74 mile.

Figure 5 - Setting Dome Camera Termination
** Unless communication error, Set switch 3, 4 of S2 in OFF state.
Position 3, 4 should be set as a pair. (Both 3, 4 to ON position or OFF position)

8.5 DOME CAMERA ADDRESS (ID)
Each dome camera must have a unique address (ID). Identical IDs on the same
line may damage the control circuit caused by an electrical short. When
installing multiple dome cameras or a DVR, it is recommended that the dome
camera ID’s be identical to the camera port of the DVR.
Cam Port 1 = Dome ID1, Cam Port 2 = Dome ID 2 … Cam Port 16 = Dome ID 16.
If more than 16 dome cameras are installed using two or more DVRs the
following formula is useful to determine the Dome ID: ID =16x (n-1) +m (where
n= number of DVR, m=Camera Port)
Refer to Figures 8 for setting the dome camera address (ID) and protocol

8.6 SYSTEM SETUP
The PTZ Dome Camera support several High Definition video standards
such as 1080i 60Hz, 1080i 50Hz,1080p 30Hz, 1080p 25Hz, 720p 60 Hz or 720p
50Hz, 720p 30 Hz or 720p 25Hz. (1080p 30Hz = 1080p 30 fps)
See Figure 9 (S4) for the appropriate protocol switch settings.
The PTZ Dome camera is capable of negotiating with multiple protocols if the
communication speed is matched (same baud rate i.e., 9600 bps).
See Figure 8 (S5 and S6) for the appropriate protocol switch settings.
Note: 1. Consult service personnel if a dome camera is installed with a
device other then recommended PTZ Dome Controller.
2. You must reboot after setting the
system setup switch’s (cycle power).

8.7 CONNECTIONS
8.7.1 How to Connect RS-485
The dome camera has a built-in RS-485 receiver so that it can be controlled
remotely by an external control device such as a joystick controller or a DVR.
RS-485: Connect the Tx(D)+and Tx(D)- of the RS485 control devices (KBD,
DVR…) to RX+, RX- of the dome camera.
Figure 9 - Connection RS-485
RS-485 does not allow for a star connection layout. A splitter is required if a star
connection layout is desired. RS-485 guarantees 1.2 Km(4000 ft) of data line
routing. A repeater is recommended to extend over 1.2 Km.
8.7.2 Connecting Video output
1. In the initial installation of the camera, you can connect the camera to a HD-
SDI monitor to check the connection status.
2. When connecting a general monitor device with HDMI or YPbPr component
input to the HD-SDI video output, you need to use a signal converter (SDI to
HDMI or SDI to YPbPr component).
8.7.3 Video Standard
1. Countries and territories use different broadcasting television systems. to
ensure a correct video signal transmission, the appropriate video standard for
your country must be set at the device.
2. Select 1080i60/1080p30/720p60/720p30 for “NTSC countries”
3. Select 1080i50/1080p25/720p50/720p25 for “PAL countries”
8.7.4 Video Cable
The cable connecting the camera’s video output and a monitor is a BNC
coaxial cable as shown below.

HD-SDI CAMERA
18
If the distance between the camera and the monitor exceeds the recommended
maximum, please use an auxiliary HD-SDI Repeater.
Figure 10 – HD-SDI Video Cable
8.7.5 Connecting Alarms
Alarm In (AL1 to 8)
Magnetic, PIR or other external sensor devices can be used to signal the dome
camera to react to an event.
If you want to use alarm input, the types of sensor must be selected in OSD
menu. The sensor types are ‘Normal Open’ and ‘Normal Close’.
Select Alarm input in OSD menu
Normal Open Sensor devices: Select NO
Normal Close Sensor devices: Select NC
Alarm In activation:
N.O. ---Short circuit between GND and Alarm Input pin
N.C. ---Open circuit between GND and Alarm Input pin
Alarm Out 1,2
If you want to use alarm Output, the Number of output “1” and “2” must be
selected in OSD menu.
1. Alarm out “1” in OSD menu
2. Alarm out “2” in OSD menu

NOTE: All the connectors marked GND are common.
Connect the ground for the Alarm input and /or alarm output to the GND
connector.
NO / NC (Normal Open or Normal Close /Contact Relay Output)
The dome camera can activate external devices such as buzzers or lights using
dry contact relays. Connect the device to the NO (NC) (Alarm Out) and COM
(Common) connectors. (See Figure 5 /12)
