Fire Safety & Security Products 08.2006



Breaking away from the commonly available domes on the market the new

Solaris™ Dome offers a level of accuracy, speed and configurability never experienced before. Solaris™ is available for both internal and external use so you can utilise your security system to the full. Underneath the contemporary styling of the Dome’s cover is a fully featured camera unit designed to put the operator in full control.

Under manual control, pan and tilt speed is proportional to the degree of zoom allowing accurate target tracking, whilst high speed preset acquisition permits near instantaneous response to alarms. Solaris™ Domes include the following features:

– Colour and Day/Night versions both with 24 privacy masks.

– Pan and Tilt Preset acquisition within 1 second, Tours, Patterns, Preset and

Sector texts.

– 7 local alarms and tamper.

Designed with reliability, ease of install and ease of use as priorities, Solaris™ comes with a range of innovative features. The unit is supplied as two halves - the

Dome Unit containing the camera and positioning system, and the External

Termination Unit (XTU).

The XTU separates the power, video, telemetry and alarm cable terminations from the Dome itself; and provides a low voltage power supply for the Dome contained within a weather-proof housing. Address and protocol selection is via a menu driven LCD display in the XTU, avoiding the issue of remembering switch and links settings. This means, for most applications the installer need never open the Dome camera’s enclosure. A single 10 m cable is supplied to connect the XTU to the

Dome unit.

Solaris™ is a multi-protocol Dome suitable for use with a range of industry standard control equipment. It can be controlled via Siemens CCDA protocol over

RS485, bi-directional Molynx protocol over RS485 or coax, or alternatively using

Ernitec, Pelco D, Pelco P or VCL, Videmech Universal, Photon and PCCON protocols over RS485. Once the receiver address, the protocol and interface have been configured using the XTU, all other configuration can be done remotely via the pass code protected on-screen display (OSD) menus.

Using the OSD Solaris™ Domes can be configured in flexible ways making them powerful security system components with:

– Configurable alarm and idle state time out actions

– Functions can also be assigned to preset numbers

– Programmable video launch amplifier

– On-screen diagnostics and usage stats

– Installer programmable on-screen text for contact details or inventory number

– Access to camera module configuration via OSD

8 Installation of the Dome unit

Before commencing use of the Solaris™ system, ensure the following has been completed:

1. Ensure you have the correct tools to complete the installation, (see Section

8.1: Tools required).

2.

Install the desired bracket in a suitable location, (see Sections 8.3.1 to 8.3.6).

3. Prepare the Dome bracket and attach it to the appropriate mounting bracket,

(see Sections 8.4: Preparing the Dome bracket and 0: Mounting the Dome bracket to a wall mount ).

4.

Assemble the Cat5 cable (see Section 8.5: Cat5 cable assembly and disassembly).

5. Hook the Dome on to the hinge mechanism and connect the cable, clipping it in place (ensure that it is correctly and firmly seated on the connector). Pull

the Dome into the vertical position (see Section 8.6: Connecting the Solaris™

Dome).

6. Check the bubble and ensure there are no scratches on the surface. If the surface is marked, it may impair optical clarity.

7.

Select a suitable location and mount the XTU, (see Sections 9.2.1: Choosing a location for the XTU and 9.2.2: Mounting the XTU).

8.

Connect the XTU to any external equipment, (see Section 9.3: Connecting the

XTU to external equipment).

9. If necessary, adjust the orientation of the XTU’s LCD display, (see Section

10.2: LCD orientation).

10. Configure the XTU to use the correct telemetry protocol and to identify itself

correctly, (see Section 10.3: The XTU main menu).

11. Setup the controller, (see Section 12: Telemetry controller operation and setup and the controller’s installation and commissioning manual).

Installing the Dome unit and the External Termination Unit requires only a basic tool kit, including: z 3 mm AF Allen key (supplied with ceiling mounting kit) z Medium sized Pozidrive screwdriver z Terminal screwdriver (flat-bladed) z RJ-45 crimping tool (only if custom Dome to XTU cable is used) z Suitable tools for chosen fasteners for fitting bracketry and mounting the XTU z Suitable tools to install the required cabling and connections

CAUTION

Handle the bubble of the Solaris™ Dome with extreme care and be sure not to scratch it, as this may affect its optical clarity. If it is accidentally marked it may be possible to remove small scratches or scuffs on the outer surface with the use of a suitable cloth and metal polish (brass cleaner). However, if this is not effective the bubble must be replaced.



15

08.2006

The two-piece mounting bracket and the hinge mechanism built into the Dome casing make the physical installation very simple.

Making the electrical connections is just as simple. All of these are provided via a single connector fitted to the Cat-5 cable supplied.

This just needs to be plugged in and clipped in place before the Dome casing is closed and fixed with a single screw. This combination ensures quick installation of the Dome.

Installation using the recessed ceiling tile mount utilises a simplified fixing procedure compared to other Domes and the electrical connections are just as simple as with the bracket and pendant mounted units.

Fig. 2 Cross-sectional view of the Solaris™ Dome

To install the dome unit, proceed as follows:

1.

First install the appropriate mounting bracket. See Section 8.3: Installing the mounting brackets.

2.

Prepare the Dome bracket. See Section 8.4: Preparing the Dome bracket.

3.

Route the cable through the Dome bracket. See Section 8.5: Cat5 cable assembly and disassembly.

4.

Connect the cable to the Dome unit. See Section 18.6: Connecting the

Solaris™ Dome.

5. Attach the Dome to the Dome bracket.

16



8.3 Installing the mounting brackets

6. Lock the Dome bracket into position by back-tightening the locknut and locking it against the face of the Dome bracket. Hand tight will be sufficient.

8.5 Cat5 cable assembly and disassembly

Solaris™ is supplied with a 10 m preassembled Cat 5 cable. In some cases, it may be necessary to change the cable (for a shorter cable or to replace a damaged cable, for example). It is very important that the cable assembly is assembled / disassembled in the following manner, to ensure a watertight seal between the connector and the Dome unit.

IMPORTANT

The Solaris™ Dome will not be fully water protected if these vital checks are not made prior to finalising the installation.

6. Clamp around the cable. Take care not to damage the cable.

7. Complete the connector assembly by sliding all parts into the connector body and hand tightening the locking nut. Sufficient force must be applied to the locking nut to compress the rubber washer, thus sealing the assembly. When sufficiently tight hold the assembly to a light source; if correctly sealed, light will not be seen though it. If light can be seen, hand tighten with more force.

8. Finally, loop the cable as shown.

9. Lock the cable in position with the cable tie provided. This ‘loop and tie’ will divert water that runs down the cable away from the connector assembly.

08.2006

8.5.2 Disassembly

1. Cut away the cable tie and un-loop the cable. Unscrew the locking nut.

2. Using a small tool (screwdriver, pen, etc.) carefully disengage the RJ45 plug from the connector body.



3. Carefully pull the RJ45 plug away from the body by gently pulling on the cable.

29

08.2006

8.6 Connecting the Solaris™ Dome

1. Offer the Dome up to the mounting bracket and hook it on to the hinge mechanism. The hinge should now take the weight of the Dome, leaving your hand free to make the connection.

2. Remove the dust cap. It is held to the unit with a lanyard so it will not be misplaced. Position the dust cap loosely to the side of the bulkhead connector.

3. Feed the cable through the opening.

4. Fit the connector’s locking clip to ensure a watertight seal.

5. Pull the Dome unit into the vertical position (taking care that the cable doesn’t snag) and lock it into place with the fixing screw.

Î The installation of the Dome is now complete.

9 Installation of the External Termination Unit (XTU)

This chapter covers the physical and electrical installation of the Solaris™ Dome’s

External Termination Unit (XTU).

NOTE

The XTU is patent pending.

The External Termination Unit (XTU) is an IP67 sealed enclosure containing the

Dome unit's power supply, telemetry interface, alarm/relay connections, video conditioning and protocol conversion.

The advantages of this separate XTU enclosure include: z Ease of setup and installation of the Dome unit z Single connection cable to the Dome unit z All other connections are made to the XTU z Ease of access for maintenance

The XTU allows the Dome to be controlled via: z

Coaxial telemetry (see Section 9.4.1: XTU connections - coaxial (C-type) telemetry).

z

RS485 telemetry (see Section 9.4.2: XTU connections - RS485 (D-type) telemetry).

z

Photon telemetry (see Section 9.4.3: XTU connections - Photon telemetry).



Fig. 12 External Termination Unit (XTU)

The XTU is very straightforward to install; these are the basic steps required:

1. Select a suitable location for the installation to allow the most suitable access to the required cabling (power, telemetry, alarms etc.) and the Dome. See

Section 9.2.1: Choosing a location for the XTU.

2. Select the appropriate cable glands for the cabling/connections to be used and remove the required knockouts in the enclosure.

31

08.2006

3. Mount the XTU in the selected position and orientation using appropriate

fasteners for the mounting substrate. See Section 9.2.2: Mounting the XTU.

4. Set the RS485 termination resistor if required.

5. Route and connect all of the required cabling to the XTU (use the supplied special M20 split rubber cable gland for the Dome connection cable)

6. Power up the XTU.

7. Orientate the LCD display to suit the mounted position.

8. Set-up the XTU to operate correctly with your chosen controller, set the protocol (e.g. MOLYNX V3), set the interface (e.g. RS485 or Coax control),

set the receiver address (e.g. camera '1'). See Section 12: Telemetry controller operation and setup.

9. Optional video test. Press the key, the XTU LCD should display a digitised view of what the Dome camera is pointing at.

Press the key to resume normal operation.

10. After the XTU has been fully set-up fit the lid on the XTU securely using the 4 lid mounting screws to ensure a weatherproof seal.

9.2.1 Choosing a location for the XTU

The XTU should be located in a position which allows the most suitable and convenient routing and connection of the required cabling. Factors to consider are the proximity to the Dome unit (10 m cable supplied as standard, extendable to

30 m maximum), power supply, connections to telemetry controller, alarms and the security/protection of the chosen location. The XTU is fitted with a tamper switch that is activated upon opening of the enclosure, but the enclosure itself is not tamper-proof.

If a cable longer than 10 m is required, it can be increased to 30 m maximum, using Cat-5e UTP 4 pair 24 AWG type cable. Ensure the correct coloured wires are

wired to the correct pins (see Section 9.5: Wiring guide).

9.2.2 Mounting the XTU

Once a suitable location has been found, mark the positions of the four mounting holes at 235 mm x 160 mm. The mounting holes in the enclosure have a diameter of 4.5 mm, so select fasteners to suit this and drill holes to match the chosen fasteners and mounting substrate. The head of the fasteners used should not exceed 9 mm in diameter.

IMPORTANT

To ensure that the unit is weatherproof (IP67) the cable glands must point downwards.

Remove the required gland knockouts by punching through the plastic around the edge of the knockouts using a small screwdriver. Knockouts are available in the enclosure for the following metric cable glands:

– 7 x M12/M20

– 2 x M16/M25

Offer the enclosure up to the mounting holes and fix in place with the chosen fasteners.

32



9.3 Connecting the XTU to external equipment

Make the necessary connections to the XTU referring to the diagrams in Section

9.4.1: XTU connections - coaxial (C-type) telemetry, Section 9.4.2: XTU

connections - RS485 (D-type) telemetry, and Section 9.4.3: XTU connections -

Photon telemetry, depending on your installation, the markings on the XTU PCB

and the connection list below.

These connections will vary between each installation, and as such there will be varying requirements for the number of connections, connection type and sealing requirements. It is the installer's responsibility to ensure that the correct cable glands are used for the cable type utilised to provide a weatherproof seal. The IP class of the cable glands used for cable entries should be higher or the same as that of the enclosure (IP67).

A selection of cable glands are supplied with the XTU: z 1 x M20 standard IP68 cable gland - for cables with diameter 10-14 mm (tighten to 3.3 Nm for IP68). z 1 x M20 special IP68 cable gland - for use with the Dome connection cable

(tighten to 3.3 Nm for IP68). z 2 x M12 standard IP68 cable glands - for cables with diameter 3-6 mm (tighten to 1.7 Nm for IP68).

Cable ties are also supplied with the XTU to be used to provide additional strain relief for the cables by securing them to the punched out anchors in the XTU mounting plate.

NOTE

All wiring to the XTU should be carried out by a qualified installer and conform to local regulations.

9.4 Description of the connections

AC input [REQUIRED]

Must be 110-230 V AC, use the strain relief to secure mains cable.


This device must be earthed.

As part of the installation protect this device via a 3 A fuse or 3 A circuit breaker.

Coax cable to controller [REQUIRED]

Connect to the controller, video and C-type telemetry pass through this connection.

The cable should be a 75 Ohm CCTV cable URM70, RG59, CT125, etc.

NOTE

The higher the quality of the cable, the further the XTU can be from the controller whilst maintaining good video quality.



33

08.2006

Dome connection cable [REQUIRED]

The supplied Dome connection cable is 10 m long, and is fitted at both ends with a standard RJ45 connector. The Dome end should be connected using the supplied weatherproof connector, the XTU end should be connected to the RJ45 connector.

A special split rubber M20 cable gland for use on the XTU end of the Dome connection cable is supplied, this allows a weatherproof seal to be made on the cable without having to pass the RJ45 connector through the sealing rubber. See

Section 9.5: Wiring guide.

Twisted pair from controller [OPTIONAL]

D-type (RS485) telemetry should be connected to this terminal, the cable type should be a suitable twisted-pair cable 100-120 Ohms designed for high-speed communication purposes, e.g. Belden 8205.

The two extremities of the RS485 network should be terminated. Generally this will be the last Dome and the control equipment. LNK1 on the XTU will perform termination and should be either ‘made’ which is terminated or ‘open’ which is unterminated.

Alarm contacts [OPTIONAL]

Connection to these alarm inputs must be from volt free contacts, connect from

ALM1 to COM, ALM2 to COM, …, ALM7 to COM as shown in the XTU connection diagram. Example use - point the Dome camera module to a chosen preset when a

PIR device is triggered.

Relay outputs [OPTIONAL]

Use the outputs COM to N/O and/or N/C to control an auxiliary device, such as an alarm system.

Warning: 1.5 A, 24 V DC max.

2-core telemetry cable from Photon controller [OPTIONAL]

Connect to this terminal if Photon telemetry is to be used (not polarised).

10 Configuration of the External Termination Unit

Once the physical installation of the XTU is complete it needs to be configured to use the correct telemetry protocol and receiver address to identify itself correctly.

To allow this to be carried out, the XTU is fitted with a LCD display and a simple keyboard.

By default, the display indicates the receiver address, the current protocol and the interface that is in use. However, the keypad can be used to control a menu system that provides access to a number of settings.

If non-default settings are being used the protocol name on the status screen is suffixed with '*'. Selecting a protocol will set all the comms settings to the default for that protocol. The default for each setting is indicated by an arrow.

To allow access to the on-screen display when using a 3rd party controller, a preset may be assigned.

Recalling this preset will enter OSD mode. In addition, a second preset may be assigned which if recalled twice within 2 seconds will enter the OSD mode.

Adjust the LCD display contrast to make it more readable in difficult lighting situations. LCD contrast

Video gain > XTU video gain If very long coax cable runs are used, video degradation is possible, and particularly noticeable as loss of sharp edges. To combat this Solaris™ has internal video amplifiers, which control the video signal amplitude of both brightness (low frequency amplification) and sharpness (high frequency lift). The high frequencies are emphasised by the sharpness control, as they relate particularly to sharp edges which suffer the worst attenuation on long cable runs.

The brightness control will compensate for different coax types as they have different low frequency characteristics.

Video gain > RTU video gain When a RTU (Remote Termination Unit) is in use this setting allows additional gain to be set to compensate for Cat5 cable lengths in excess of 150 m.

11 Configuration of the Dome unit

Most of the Solaris™ Dome's advanced functions are configured using a menu system that is presented by the camera's on-screen display (OSD). This section of the manual covers the use of the OSD menu system, and explains the options it provides.

When the Dome is new or after a factory reset has been performed, a default tour is already stored comprising of sixteen preset positions (1 to 16). These preset positions can be overwritten by storing new positions or by selecting ‘Clear

Presets’ from the Reset menu.

11.1 On-screen display menus

The menus system presented by the OSD is controlled by using keys on the system telemetry controller. Since the Solaris™ Dome can be controlled by a wide range of telemetry controllers, the position and labelling of the specific keys used

may vary from system to system. Refer to Section 12: Telemetry controller operation and setup for specific information.

Menu flowcharts overview

The OSD's main menu contains 8 items, all of which lead to a sub-menu system of commands when selected. Details of each of these sub-menus and the commands they contain are presented as flowcharts on the following pages.



CAMERA

PRESETS TOURS

PATTERNS

PRIVACY ZONES

SOFT LIMITS AND

SECTORS

This menu provides access to several of the camera's advanced functions.

See Section 11.1.2: The Camera menu for details.

This menu is used to set up stationary preset positions, pre-programmed tours of specific presets, and to record any of the four patterns - a series of manual movements that can be recorded and then replayed as an alternative to a tour. It is also used to assign actions to presets; such as recalling tours

and to assign presets to alarms. See Section 11.1.3: The Presets, Tours and

Patterns menu for details

This section of the menu system will allow you to set up Privacy Zones.

These are pre-defined sections of the cameras field of view that are blanked

to provide privacy for occupants of the areas covered. See Section 11.1.4:

The Privacy Zones menu for details

Soft Limits will allow you to set up and remove software limits that restrict the vertical travel of the camera. Sectors will allow individual identification, by name, of the 16 sectors available within the Solaris™ Dome’s horizontal movement.

DIAGNOSTICS

PASSCODES

The Solaris™ Dome's XTU is provided with a tamper alarm and seven general-purpose alarm inputs. This menu is used to set up these alarm inputs and control the Solaris™ Dome's response when they are triggered.

See Section 11.1.6: The Alarm menu for details.

This menu will allow you to set up how the OSD will appear to the Solaris™

Dome camera's operator during normal operation. It will allow you to set a unique name for the camera and then control the information that will appear

on the screen when the camera is viewed. See Section 11.1.7: The OSD menu for details.

This menu provides diagnostic information about the Solaris™ Dome's

operation. See Section 11.1.8: The Diagnostics menu for details.

This menu will allow you to set up the Operator and Installer level pass codes for the Solaris™ Dome. See the following section for details.

11.1.1 The Passcodes menu

In addition to the telemetry controller pass code or physical key lock you may need to enter to access the OSD menus, it is possible to set two additional levels of access pass code for the Solaris™ Dome itself.

These are known as the Operator code and the Installer code, and they provide different levels of access to the menu items. The Installer code is required to access the more technical aspects of the configuration.

If these codes have not been set (i.e. left at 0000), no action is required to enter the menus. If they have been set, you will be prompted to enter an appropriate code to access the menus that they protect.

Use the Passcodes menu to set up new pass codes, or edit existing ones. Failure to enter a pass code correctly within three attempts will result in a lock out period of twenty minutes.

11.1.2 The Camera menu

The camera menu provides control of a number of advanced features of the camera, and access to settings that affect the camera's response to unusual lighting conditions.

White Balance

Backlight

Exposure

The White Balance menu item controls how the camera adjusts its colour output under different types of light source. You can choose between two pre-set configurations (indoor, outdoor), automatic mode, auto tracing mode, one push mode that can be automatically re-adjusted only at the request of the user and manual mode where red and blue gain can be adjusted separately by the user.

NOTE

When in One Push mode, use Iris Open to perform a one push.

This setting provides backlight compensation for situations where the background is more brightly lit than the subject

The EXP Priority setting determines which aspect of control has priority for the camera’s automatic exposure setting. Choosing a mode other than auto will allow you adjust the operation of that mode. The Slow Shutter setting controls whether slow shutter operation will switch in automatically before the Night time mode is activated.

NOTE

Automatic Slow Shutter is only available when the exposure priority is set to Full Auto.

Special menu

Digital zoom

Day/Night mode

Auto Flip

Video gain

RTU gain

When digital zoom is tuned ON and the maximum optical zoom range is reached, digital zoom enlarges the centre of the subject by expanding the image in both the horizontal and vertical directions.

The IR-cut filter can be set to engage and disengage automatically as light levels change, or manually when the Lamps key is pressed.

The Auto Flip function allows continuous tracking of a target moving under the

Dome without the need for the operator to release the joystick.

If very long coax cable runs are used, video degradation is possible, and particularly noticeable as loss of sharp edges. See Video gain > XTU video

gain in Section 10.3: The XTU main menu for details.

When an RTU (Remote Termination Unit) is in use this setting allows additional gain to be set to compensate for Cat5 cable lengths in excess of 150 m.

A Preset is a stored, fixed camera position that you can return to by entering a preset number on the controller keyboard. The Solaris™ Dome can store up to 99 presets.

A Preset Tour is a pre-configured sequence of presets that the Solaris™ Dome will move between continuously. The Solaris™ Dome can store up to 4 tours of 32 steps each. Each step can have an associated speed and dwell time.

A Pattern is a recorded sequence of Solaris™ Dome movements that can be played back repeatedly. The Solaris™ Dome can store four patterns, the length of which can be up to several minutes.

Assign Presets

Use this item to review, edit, name and store presets. You can also store preset text, it will remain on the OSD until you move to another pan, tilt or zoom location.

This menu item is used to recall and edit preset tours.

Use this menu to recall a previously recorded pattern or record a new one.

This menu allows you to select an operation that will start after a predefined period of keyboard inactivity.

This menu will allow you to assign any of the four tours or the pattern to a preset. This means that they can be started by recalling the preset.

Within the assign preset menu, it is also possible to assign presets to alarms that can be recalled when an alarm is triggered.

Two sub-menus will allow you to assign a preset to any of the 8 alarms

NOTE

A random tour is a tour that consists of the steps used in tour 1, but are replayed in a random order.

This helps prevent potential criminals from studying and learning the movement of a traditional tour.

Soft limits

The Soft Limits menu will allow you to set up and remove programmable soft limits to the vertical travel of the camera.

Once the upper and lower limits are set, the camera will not view the areas above or below those limits.

Sectors

The Solaris™ Dome’s horizontal movement is divided into 16 sectors that can be individually identified with a name. The Sectors item will allow you to configure the names of the sectors.

When the sector function is activated (in the OSD menu, see Section 11.1.7), the

sector name is displayed on screen whenever the camera is looking into that sector. The purpose of this is to provide the operator with help in orientation. The

Edit Sector menu allows you to edit the sector name.

11.1.6 The Alarm menu

The Alarm menu provides access to settings relating to the alarm contacts in the

XTU unit. Each of the 8 alarms can be configured individually to respond in a different way.

Contact

Video blanking

Relay

Alarm text

Selects whether the alarm contacts are normally open(N/O) or normally closed (N/C).

Video blanking provides a way of signalling an alarm for systems that do not support remote reporting. When set to Yes, an alarm will blank the video for

3 seconds.

For example: A V2 system with video loss alarms fitted.

Selecting Momentary will cause the relay output to operate for 3 seconds when an alarm occurs. Select Latched for the relay to operate for the full duration of the alarm.

Each alarm can be identified with 24 characters of text that will appear when an alarm occurs, remaining on-screen until the alarm is acknowledged by a user manually controlling the Dome

Global settings

Time period

Enables a local response of the alarm. The Dome moves to the assigned preset position and displays the user entered text (see Assign alarm

presets in Section 11.1.3: The Presets, Tours and Patterns menu).

Enables remote reporting of the alarm (for systems with bi-directional telemetry - the alarm state is signalled to the controller).

This setting, in conjunction with Time Period, determines what action the

Solaris™ Dome will perform after an alarm has occurred. When Alarm

Resume is set to Home the camera will return to home position (preset

1). Alternatively, you can select any of the four tours or four patterns

(assuming these have been programmed – see Section 11.1.3: The

Presets, Tours and Patterns menu).

Alarms

When using Molynx V3 protocol in conjunction with a V3i telemetry matrix it is possible to send alarms back over the telemetry link. It is necessary to configure the V3i to have bi-directional telemetry on the channel being used and for the appropriate camera alarms to be enabled. Also, on the Solaris™, the alarms must be configured to have Remote Reporting enabled.

Only the tamper and alarms 1-6 may be sent back, alarm 7 is not usable in this way. The mapping is such that the tamper is the first alarm in the block of 8 camera alarms, followed by alarms 1-6.

With a controller other than a V3i it is not possible to use bi-directional telemetry hence remote reporting of alarms is not available. Use normal Molynx - not Molynx

V3 - telemetry in these instances.

12.5 Use with 3rd party controllers

It is possible to configure the Solaris™ Dome to be controlled via RS485 using a number of other manufacturer's controllers. When using a controller other than those offered by Siemens or Bewator (incorporating Molynx technology); there may be variations in the actions a user must take in order to perform a particular task.

Where there is a lack of consistency between controllers, the Solaris™ Dome will attempt to overcome these problems. It is therefore necessary on occasion to use buttons on a controller to perform a different operation to that which may be explained in the controllers manual. This is sometimes required to fully utilise the functionality of the Solaris™ Dome.

The following third party protocols are implemented and may be selected from the

PROTOCOL menu: z Pelco D z Pelco P z Ernitec ERNA z VCL z Vicon z Videmech Universal z Philips z Photon z TTY

NOTE

TTY mode is used for communication with a PC for firmware upgrades and should not be selected in normal use.

Details for the functions supported in these protocols are listed below.

13 Maintenance

This final chapter of the manual covers routine maintenance and specifications.

13.1 Dismantling the Solaris™ Dome

To remove the Solaris™ Dome from its mounting bracket, proceed as follows:

1. Remove the Dome fixing screw.

68



1 Fixing Screw

2. Hold the Dome unit around its main body and swing it into the horizontal position.

3. Disengage the connectors locking clip.

4. Disconnect the connector from the socket.

08.2006

NOTE

If necessary, refit the dust cap attached to the lanyard - to avoid corrosion of the connector terminals.

5. Unhook the Dome from its mounting bracket. z Visually check the mounting bracket for signs of defect or corrosion. z Check the cable runs between the Dome unit and External Telemetry Unit for security of attachment and signs of wear. z Check all mechanical fixings to the building infrastructure for corrosion, wear and rigidity. z Issue the customer a written report of any defects (which are beyond the scope of CCTV maintenance) in the building infrastructure or other equipment. z Check that the Solaris™ Dome / camera is functioning correctly for:

– Full range of movement, bearing in mind any ‘soft limits’ that may have been set.

– Slow and fast speeds.

– Picture quality. z Clean the bubble if necessary. See ‘Bubble Maintenance'. z Check fan speed (Diagnostic menu). Although the fan speed changes depending on temperature, it should always run above 50% speed. z Perform camera lens initialise, followed by a camera reset. See Reset menu in

Section 11.1.2: The Camera menu.

z When handing the bubble, always hold the outer flange if possible. Handle with extreme care as the bubble is easily scratched. z Under no circumstances should you touch the inner surface of the bubble. z If debris is present on the inner surface, do not wipe it with a cloth. Blow the debris out of the bubble using a filtered air line or a can of compressed air

(available from electronics suppliers, e.g. RS). z Small scratches or scuffs can be removed from the outer surface with the use of a suitable cloth and metal polish (brass cleaner).
