environment for the internal electronic and mechanical components. If the camera
housing cover or seals become compromised due to being struck by objects or damaged
during handling, the cameras should be taken out of service IMMIDIATELY, so that the
camera can be returned to WTI for repair. This will help prevent further EXPENSIVE
internal corrosion damage from occurring. Below are some examples of Damage that will
compromise the sealing integrity of the camera.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Sidewinder SW720A is a pan-tilt-zoom camera system that provides standard
definition composite 1Vpp NTSC color video over video coaxial cable. The camera
provides 360 degree continuous rotation in both the pan and tilt axes, and provides an
optical zoom magnification of 36 times. A self-cleaning hydrophilic coating is provided
on the front lens window of the camera to ensure clear, crisp video images and to reduce
maintenance. An electrically conductive Indium-Tin-Oxide coating is provided on the
inside of the front lens window to provide direct window heating and prevent fogging and
icing.
The Sidewinder SW720A camera operates on AC line voltages within a voltage range of
85VAC to 265VAC and an operating frequency of 47Hz to 63Hz. The camera umbilical
cable is available terminated with an 18 Pin MS style male connector or a 16 Pin AMP
style connector.
Camera control signal wiring is provided on an RS-485 serial data port and supports
several industry standard protocols, including Pelco D protocol and COHU protocol.
The standard definition analog NTSC video output is 1Vpp with a 75 Ohm output
impedance. An F1.4 zoom lens with x36 optical zoom and x12 digital zoom is standard.
Electronic Image Stabilization can be enabled to provide stable images when high zoom
magnification is used.
The Sidewinder SW720A camera series is designed to operate over a temperature range
of -35C to +75C and the entire camera is IP66/IP67 rated. The cameras are all 100%
submersion tested during final test to ensure that the cameras are water tight.
The Sidewinder SW720A camera is available with optional camera tube dry nitrogen
pressurization and several output signal connector options.

INSTALLATION
RECOMMENDED TOOLS FOR PROPER INSTALLATION
1) Tie wraps to secure cable runs.
2) Set of open end wrenches including 7/16” for mounting bolts.
3) Cordless power drill for mounting some brackets.
4) Safety cable recommended (prevents camera falling during overhead
installations).
5) Self-sealing connector tape to weatherproof all cable connections.
INSTALLATION PLANNING
1) The maximum cable length that should be planned for is about 750 feet, which is
based primarily on the limitations of transmitting the video signal over long
coaxial cable distances.
2) The Sidewinder SW720A camera draws up to 50 Watts maximum, which
translates to about 0.59 Amps at the low line voltage limit of 85VAC.
3) Be sure to verify that there are no physical obstructions that might prevent the
camera from turning freely in all directions. The camera must be able to rotate
360 degrees in each axis during power up initialization in order to properly
initialize the pan and tilt drive positions.
4) Be sure to verify that there are no physical obstructions in the way of any required
viewing directions.
5) Be sure that there is access to the end of the umbilical cable on the bottom of the
camera to facilitate connecting and disconnecting the camera while it is in place
on the mounting bracket or pole.
