- Should any liquid or solid object fall into the unit, unplug it and have it checked by a qualified person
before operating again.
- Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it is not going to be used for several days. To disconnect the cord, pull it out
by the plug , never by the cord itself.
- Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat build-up. Do not place the unit on surfaces(rugs, blankets, etc).
- The height and linearity controls located at the rear panel are for adjustment by qualified personnel only.
Do not install the unit in extremely hot or humid environments or places exposed to excessive dust or mechanical
vibrations.
Clean the unit with a slightly damp soft cloth. Use a mild household detergent. Never use strong solvents such
as thinner or benzene as they might damage the finish of the unit.

Remove the dome cover and the camera liner
Gently turn the dome cover counter-clockwise to unlock and pull free of the dome base.
Remove the camera liner by gently pulling it free of the two notches (D4) in the camera
base (see section D on page 4).
Use provided template on appendix to mark-out and prepare the mounting area
When mounting the dome to a ceiling or wall using screws, first knock out the screw
access holes (C2, see section C on page 3) that correspond to the template marks “D5”.
This can be done by using a cross-point screwdriver. When mounting the dome to a ceiling
using the quick install adaptor, use the template to cut a hole as the circle marked “T5” with
a hole cutter.
Mounting the enclosure
1. Surface Mounting:
Pass the cables through the mounting surface, unless using one of the side knockouts*.
Using the supplied D5 screws (and wall plugs as necessary) mount the camera to the
mounting surface as shown in section A.
*Open the required side knock-out panel
This is only required when the camera is mounted to a surface where the power
and video cables DO NOT pass through the mounting surface. Use a sharp knife
or side cutter pliers to cut one of the side knock-outs (C3, see section C on page
3) to the size required to allow cable entry. Be careful not to hurt yourself or
damage the camera when using knives and side cutter pliers
2. Quick install adaptor mounting:
a. Install 1/2” cable entry sealing plug (H2) on quick install adaptor (H1). Push the quick
install adaptor into the appropriate cut out hole.
b. Use the screws to adjust the position of the two locking arms (B1) on the quick install
adaptor to adjust to the mounting surface.
c. Push the cables through the opening (H1) and 1/2” cable entry sealing plug (H2),
make sure the sealing plug is properly installed on the adaptor;
d. Thread the dome onto the quick install adaptor. This takes about 1½ turns. DO NOT
OVER-TIGHTEN.

appropriate point and connect it to your video out and power in cables. A service jack
socket is also provided for temporary video connection when focusing the camera, using an
optional service cable( VFD/VIRD/LEAD).
Adjust the camera position
You can adjust the focusing position by
rotating and panning the camera base (see
fig. right).
Install the camera liner
Carefully fit the camera liner (E1) over the
camera base so that it snaps into place as
shown in section E and does not obstruct
the camera lens.
Replace the dome cover
Replace the dome cover (E2) and rotate to
close it as shown in section E.
Insert/Withdraw miniSD memory card
It is not necessary to fully remove the dome lid to gain access to the miniSD card.
To insert or remove the miniSD card, turn the dome lid anti-clockwise until the first detent is
reached. depress and release the card to eject it. When inserting the card, press until a
click is felt and then release. the card will be retained in the slot.
When complete, turn the dome lid clockwise and re-insert the security screw (G1) if
necessary.

DIP Switch Settings for the High Resolution Series
The bank of DIP switches allows the following settings:
Line Lock (INT/LL)
In LL Mode, the V-Phase may be adjusted to compensate
for connected supply phase differences.
Only applicable for 24VAC supply – otherwise the camera
should be operates with INTernal sync.
Day/Night Mode (OFF/ON)
When ON the camera operates in monochrome mode in reduced lighting.
Auto White Balance (AWB Normal/AWB EX)
AWB: The camera operates in the normal AWB range 2700K~11000K.
AWB EX: The camera runs in the extended AWB range 2000K~18000K.
Flickerless mode (FL/ON)
The camera reduces flicker in the image under fluorescent lighting.
Back Light Compensation (BLC)
When set ON, this option reduces the camera’s response to strong, unwanted lighting effects behind the
required subject.
Low Light Sensitivity (AGC-EX/AGC-NORMAL)
When set to EX, sensitivity in low light will automatically increased.
Select “NORMAL” will remove noise from the image, but it will also limit the camera’s sensitivity.
