2 preset patrols.

4 alarm inputs driving to preset 1 - 4.

VectorScan 0 is started by pressing AUTOPAN and is programmed using the dome menu (see notes).

A datum or home facility is provided. This is link selectable to either move to preset 1 or start VectorScan 0. Link J6/1-2 fitted enables datum mode. Link J6/4-5 fitted selects preset 1 and removed selects VectorScan 0. The timeout is fixed at 5 minutes after the last movement command.

RS485 control of dome using the following connections:

Notes:

The alarm output relay opens for approx 5 seconds upon power up. This can be used to signal power loss, etc.

Whilst within PATROL1, PATROL2, VECTORSCAN or PTZ Tour a local alarm input will drive the dome to the active alarm preset position at full speed. The dome will remain in this position for approx 60 seconds, after which time the patrol, VectorScan etc will resume. Additionally, if the dome is running PATROL1 or 2 a manual preset command will move the dome to this preset position for 60 seconds before continuing with the patrol.

The dome must be configured as follows:

Select 9600 Baud communications. To use the dome’s advanced features including the menu, select MAXPRO telemetry. The exact switch setting for MAXPRO telemetry depends on the dome’s internal firmware version as below:

Three rotary switches set the dome address to 000. S1 = ‘0’, S2 = ‘0’, S3 = ‘0’.

The dome menu allows setting of several internal dome features. Once activated using ‘#’WASH etc, navigate using the pan/tilt direction keys/joystick. Generally the IRIS OPEN key is used as a ENTER key and the IRIS CLOSE key is used as an ESCAPE key. The dome manual should explain in greater detail.

On screen text can be enabled using the dome menu.

It is recommended that the dome is operated with the auto exposure set to ON to allow automatic compensation for varying lighting conditions.

Due to the dome protocol requirements, telemetry control is up-the-coax only. 20mA twisted pair telemetry is not currently supported. (Software version Rx1_D1V5)
