FLUSH MOUNT INSTALLATION
Begin by removing the three tamper proof screws in the outer bezel with the special wrench
included and removing it. Continue by removing the tamper proof screws on the inner casing (you
may want to remove and set aside the polycarbonate bubble to avoid scratching it).
Remove the inner casing from the outer surface mount casing and set the outer casing aside. You
may want to keep the surface mount box in case you decide to re-mount it at a later time.
Cut a hole in the ceiling or wall the exact size of the inner back box and set the camera into the
hole securing it with anchors. When installing in a drop ceiling always attach a guy wire to a beam
above the camera to hold the weight and secure the camera for safety reasons.
Begin by removing the three tamper proof screws in the outer bezel with the special wrench
included and removing it. Continue by removing the tamper proof screws on the inner casing (you
may want to remove and set aside the polycarbonate bubble to avoid scratching it).
Remove the inner casing from the outer surface mount casing (back box) and temporarily set the
inner casing/camera to the side.
Secure the outer back box directly to a wall or ceiling using wood screws or anchors. If installing
outside, remember to glue the rubber matting to the wall and then attach the back box. Conduit
may be attached to the rear or the side of the back box depending on the installation.
Re-secure the inner casing with the camera to the back box but remember to attach the wiring
before doing so. You may also want to find a desirable angle of view and adjust the iris and focus
before making the final wiring connections.

CAMERA SETUP
Your VTD-VPH Dome Camera has been set at average default settings from the factory so the
performance should be excellent right from the start. However, certain challenging environments
may require additional set-up procedures to enhance the image.
There are four dip switches on the rear board
of the camera. They should all be set to off
from the factory. The following adjustments may
be made:
DIP SWITCH SETTINGS
Electronic Shutter Control
Leave this switch in the “Off” position if your camera has an auto
iris lens.
Switch to the “On” position when using a fixed lens version to
enhance the camera’s ability to react to changing light.
Back Light Control
Leave this switch in the “Off” position if your camera is being
installed outdoors or if the installation is indoors in a controlled
lighting environment.
Switch to “On” position when installing the camera indoors looking
toward windows or doors or if outdoors looking into semi-direct
sunlight. Never install camera looking into direct sunlight.
Flickerless On/Off
Flickerless shutter speed for minimizing image flicker under
fluorescent lighting.
Auto White Balance
Switch “On” if the image appears discolored or floats between
colors. This will enable the camera to find “White”.

AUTO IRIS LENS ADJUSTMENT
Your DC Auto Iris Lens should be set properly at default from the factory. However, if the picture
appears too bright or too dark, the iris function can be adjusted by turning the small silver
potentiometer located on the board above the lens.
On all varifocal versions, the width of view may be
adjusted by turning the forward lever toward the
smaller number for wider and toward the larger number
for more telephoto.
The Focus may be adjusted by turning the rear lever
toward the “W” for near and toward the “T” for far (or
telephoto). After making these adjustments, tighten the
levers to lock them in place.
On the fixed version, the focus may be adjusted by
simply screwing or unscrewing the lens. Be careful
not to over tighten the lens or you may
damage the pick-up sensor.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
Use mild liquid cleaners to remove dirt and grime from the dome surface.
Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners which can scratch the polycarbonate dome and reduce
visibility for the camera.
If the camera view is obstructed by scratches, remove the front plate (bezel) and rotate the bubble
to a portion that is not scratched.
If the dome becomes damaged or scratched beyond use, contact your distributor to order a
replacement.
