Chapter 1 Overview
1.1 Description
Integrated with the built-in pan/tilt unit, the HD-TVI speed dome features highly sensitive response
and reliable performance. The speed dome can be adopted in various surveillance fields with its
full-integral functions and features, such as corridor, large venue, meeting room, station,
neighborhoods, etc.
1.2 Functions
The functions vary according to the different models of the speed dome.
Coaxial Control
The speed dome with a specified DVR or controller can be sent the control signals via coaxial cable
(BNC cable).
High-Definition Output
The resolution of the output image can be up to 1080p.
Limits
The speed dome can be programmed to move within the limits (left/right, up/down).
Self-adaptive Protocol
While using RS-485 control, the speed dome is compatible with PELCO-D, PELCO-P and
PRIVATE-Code, etc., and is capable of being self-adaptive to these protocols without selecting
protocol by DIP switch settings. While using coaxial control, the speed dome is self-adaptive to
PELCO-D and PRIVATE-Code protocols.
Keyboard Control
The pan/tilt movement and zoom actions of dome can be controlled by the control keyboard, DVR,
matrix, etc.
Scan Modes
The dome provides 5 scan modes: auto scan, tilt scan, and panorama scan.
Preset Freezing
This feature freezes the scene on the monitor when the dome is moving to a preset. This allows for
smooth transition from one preset scene to another. It also guarantees that masked area will not be
revealed when the dome is moving to a preset.
Presets
A preset is a predefined image position. When the preset is called, the dome will automatically
move to the defined position. The presets can be added, modified, deleted and called.
Label Display
The on-screen label of the preset title, PT display, zoom, and time can be displayed on the monitor.
Auto Flips

HD-TVI Speed Dome User Manual
2
In manual tracking mode, when a target object goes directly beneath the dome, the video will be
automatically flipped 180 degrees in horizontal direction to maintain continuity of tracking. This
function can also be realized by auto mirror image depending on different camera models.
Privacy Mask
This function allows you to block or mask certain area of a scene, for preventing the personal
privacy from recording or live viewing. A masked area will move with pan and tilt functions and
automatically adjust in size as the lens zooms telephoto and wide.
3D Positioning
In the client software, use the left key of mouse to click on the desired position in the video image
and drag a rectangle area in the lower right direction, then the dome system will move the position
to the center and allow the rectangle area to zoom in. Use the left key of mouse to drag a rectangle
area in the upper left direction to move the position to the center and allow the rectangle area to
zoom out.
Proportional Pan/Tilt
Proportional pan/tilt automatically reduces or increases the pan and tilt speeds according to the
amount of zoom. At telephoto zoom settings, the pan and tilt speeds will be slower than at wide
zoom settings. This keeps the image from moving too fast on the live view image when there is a
large amount of zoom.
Auto Focus
The auto focus enables the camera to focus automatically to maintain clear video images.
Day/Night Auto Switch
The speed domes deliver color images during the day. And as light diminishes at night, the speed
domes switch to night mode and deliver black and white images with high quality.
Slow Shutter
In slow shutter mode, the shutter speed will automatically slowdown in low illumination conditions
to maintain clear video images by extending the exposure time. The feature can be enabled or
disabled.
Backlight Compensation (BLC)
If you focus on an object against strong backlight, the object will be too dark to be seen clearly. The
BLC (Backlight Compensation) function can compensate light to the object in the front to make it
clear, but this causes the over-exposure of the background where the light is strong.
Wide Dynamic Range (WDR)
The wide dynamic range (WDR) function helps the camera provide clear images even under back
light circumstances. When there are both very bright and very dark areas simultaneously in the field
of view, WDR balances the brightness level of the whole image and provide clear images with
details.
White Balance (WB)
White balance can remove the unrealistic color casts. White balance is the white rendition function
of the camera to adjust the color temperature according to the environment automatically.
Patrol
A patrol is a memorized series of pre-defined preset function. The scanning speed between two
presets and the dwell time at the preset are programmable.
Pattern
A pattern is a memorized series of pan, tilt, zoom, and preset functions. By default, the focus and

HD-TVI Speed Dome User Manual
3
iris are in auto status during the pattern is being memorized.
Power Off Memory
The dome supports the power off memory capability with the predefined resume time. It allows the
dome to resume its previous position after power is restored.
Time Task
A time task is a preconfigured action that can be performed automatically at a specific date and
time. The programmable actions include: pan scan, patrol 1-8, pattern 1-4, preset 1-8, panorama
scan, tilt scan, day, night, and none.
Park Action
This feature allows the dome to start a predefined action automatically after a period of inactivity.

Power Memory Settings
The dome can resume its previous PTZ status after it restarted from a power-off when it stops at a
position longer than the predefined time. You can set the memory time to 10S, 30S, 60S, 180S, and
300S.
Coaxitron Control
The Coaxial transmission function can be enabled to transmit the RS485 signal along with the video
signal via the BNC cable. If the connected encoding device also supports the Coaxial transmission,
the RS485 cable will not be necessary.
Steps:
1) Enable the Coaxial control function by setting the option of COAXITRON ACT to ON.
2) Select the Coaxial control protocol.
The transmission protocol of the connected encoding device should be set the same as the
speed dome to support the coaxial transmission.

Task 1: Configure the focus settings.
Setting the focus mode
Steps:
1. Move the cursor to FOCUS using the direction buttons and click IRIS+ to enter.
2. Click up/down direction buttons to set the focus mode to AF, MF or HAF.
AF (Auto-focus): The lens remains in focus during PTZ movements.
MF (Manual Focus): You need to adjust the focus with Focus+ and Focus- buttons manually.
HAF (Half-auto Focus): The speed dome focuses automatically only once after panning,
tilting and zooming.
3. Click IRIS+ button to save the settings.
Setting the focus limit
Purpose:
This function is used to limit the minimum focus distance. You can configure the focus limit
longer when the target is in a distance, to avoid the speed dome focusing on the objects close to
it; or configure the focus limit shorter when the target is near the speed dome, and avoid it
focuses on the objects farther.
Task 2: Configure the zoom settings.
Setting the zoom limit
Purpose:
Zoom limit is a user-defined limitation of the zoom amount (Zoom amount=optical zoom× digital
zoom). If you set the zoom limit to the minimum value, the digital zoom will be invalid and the
optical zoom will reach the maximum value; if you set the zoom limit smaller, the digital zoom
will be enabled.
Steps:
1. Move the cursor to ZOOM LIMIT using the direction buttons and click IRIS+ to enter.
2. Click up/down direction buttons to choose the limit from 23, 46, 92, 184, and 368.
3. Click IRIS+ button to confirm.
If you set the ZOOM LIMIT as the minimum value 22, the digital zoom function will be
disabled, and the optical zoom function is at its maximum value.
Configure the zoom speed.
