4.5 SUN SHROUD INSTALLATION

The sun shroud provides an air space between itself and the enclosure to protect the enclosure from the direct rays of the sun and reduces the internal temperature of the enclosure approxi- mately 10-15°F (-12.22°-9.44°C).

To install the sun shroud, perform the following steps (see Figure 9):

1.Insert the mounting straps through the holes in the standoffs inside the shroud.

2.Align the sun shroud.

3.Fasten the mounting straps securely around the enclosure.

5.0 OPERATION

To ensure proper operation, the unit should be installed as previously stated and wired in accor- dance with Figures 7 and 8.

5.1 SYSTEM TEST

1.Power up the camera.

2.Check the operation of the lens functions such as focus, zoom, and iris.

6.0 TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDELINES

1.Once the camera has been powered up and no picture is present on the monitor, take the following steps:

a.Verify that the video monitor has been properly terminated.

b.If the monitor is properly terminated, open and close the iris to see if a picture ap- pears.

c.If adjusting the iris does not yield a pic- ture, check the camera for proper voltage.

d.If the above do not restore a picture, con- tact Pelco’s Technical Assistance Program (TAP) at 1-800-289-9100.

7.0 MAINTENANCE

At a minimum frequency of once each year, the enclosure should be routinely recharged. Addition- ally, if the enclosure must be opened for servicing, the enclosure would also need to be recharged. The following instructions explain how to disas- semble the enclosure, reassemble and charge it.

7.1 ENCLOSURE DISASSEMBLY

1.Disconnect the power from the enclosure.

2.Remove the mating connector from the rear of the enclosure by turning the outer ring coun- terclockwise until a click is felt; then pull the mating portion of the connector off. You may elect to remove the enclosure from its mount which will make the disassembly process much easier.

3.Remove the center cap from the Schraeder valve. (See Figure 10, item 6).

4.Relieve internal enclosure pressure by de pressing and holding down the center stem of the Schraeder valve. (See Figure 10, item 6).
