Setting up the RapidDome Dome

Wiring Details

Mounting

The RapidDome Dome is designed for speed of installation and set up and so the wall

and ceiling mount brackets are supplied pre-wired. Customer wiring is via an internal

terminal block PCB that is located inside the base plastic cover. (See for the location of

the terminal block and for the wiring details.)

The false ceiling versions of the RapidDome Dome are supplied with a 3m cable.

Coax Control

Up-the-Coax RapidDome Domes do not require an address setting; therefore the settings

of positions 1 - 7 on DILSW1 are ignored. Position 8 controls the alarm feature as

described in Section 7.

LED on the RapidDome Dome Bottom Board

In the following section please refer to below for the locations on the board.

LED D19 will flash each time a valid control command for this receiver is received.

Alarm Settings

Switch 8 of the 8 way DIL switch (DILSW1: see on page 3) is used to toggle the

RapidDome Domes alarm setting. When the switch is ‘ON’ the RapidDome Domes

alarm inputs are enabled and set to the default settings as shown in the table below. If

switch 8 is ‘OFF’ then the alarms are not automatically enabled, but can be enabled and

adjusted using a MaxCom with local alarm menus. (See the MaxCom instructions for

details of alarm setting menus.)

When an alarm input becomes active, the RapidDome Dome will move to the

corresponding preset and Relay 1 will close its contacts. When the alarm time-out has

expired the RapidDome Dome will return to its pre-alarm state and Relay 1 will open its

contacts (provided no other alarms have been activated and are still timing out).

Alarm / Relay Connections

The connections to the alarm inputs and relay output are via 2 RJ45 sockets located at the

top of the RapidDome, shown below.

Top View of RapidDome with Alarms

The connections on the RJ45 plugs are numbered as shown below. A suitable termination

tool will be required to connect to the RJ45 plugs.

Installing the RapidDome Dome

When handling the RapidDome Dome, DO NOT touch the acrylic, or any

sensitive or precision parts, as this will cause damage to the unit.

Fitting the RapidDome Dome into the bracket

Step

2 Align the lug on the RapidDome Dome with the slot on the bracket.

Carefully push the RapidDome Dome into the bracket and twist clockwise.

Allow to drop into the retainer.

3 Fit the M3 CSK safety locking screw into the bracket to lock the RapidDome

Dome in place. This is ESSENTIAL for the safe operation of the RapidDome

Dome. (The hole for the screw is on the opposite side of the pole to the slot.)

4 Attach the cable cover. This is supplied as two halves that snap together over the

neck of the RapidDome as shown below.

Fitting the Cable Covers

When the RapidDome Dome is to be fitted to a JD5S80 (80mm) mounting pole,

then the hole in the cable cover will need to be aligned with the screw hole in

the pole when fitting the M3 CSK safety locking screw as shown below.

False Ceiling Model

The RapidDome Dome is designed to be mounted in a flat ceiling installation.

Mounting the RapidDome Dome in an angled ceiling installation will affect the

units center of gravity and, consequently, programmed tours will be affected.

The false ceiling kit requires a clear area of 270mm diameter for installation.

Dimensions Required for False Ceiling Kit

Step

1 Ensure that the false ceiling is able to support the weight of the false ceiling

kit. (1.25 kg)

2 Using the retaining ring as a template, cut a 160mm diameter hole in the ceiling

using an appropriate tool.

3 Drill three 6mm holes on the 186mm PCD to accept the mounting studs.

4 Follow the installation diagram in to fit the Lanyard. Ensure that the Lanyard is

fitted correctly at the point indicated. (Point ‘A’.)

5 Insert the RapidDome Dome through the ceiling and fit the retaining disk to

the back of the RapidDome Dome. (The rear of the ceiling face).

Sample Configurations and Notes for RS485 Twisted Pair Installations

Individual Twisted Pair Output

If a single RapidDome is to be connected to an individual twisted pair output, then the

link should be fitted across pins 1 and 2 on LK1. This sets the termination to ON. See

below for a sample Configuration

Individual Twisted Pair Output

Twisted Pair and ‘Daisy Chain’ connections

Twisted pair RS485 RapidDome Domes may be ‘daisy chained’ up to a maximum of 32

units from a single twisted pair RS485 output. When this option is used, it is imperative

that the termination link LK1 is set correctly. In a chain of RapidDome Domes, the link

MUST be fitted across pins 2 and 3 (termination OFF), for all domes in the chain except

the final one.

The link MUST be fitted across pins 1 and 2 of the last RapidDome Dome, (termination

ON). Below shows a system using two RapidDome Domes in this way.

Star Connections

DO NOT connect several twisted pair RS485 telemetry receivers in a Star Connection to

one twisted pair output using long cables - use the ‘daisy chain’ method detailed above

instead. If separate cables are brought back from the RapidDome Domes to the

transmitter then the ADCD16TP MUST be used to provide individual RS485 output to

the cameras.

ADCD16TP must also be used in systems that have more than 32 RapidDome Domes.

The above rules concerning the use of RS485 must be adhered to so that the control data

is not corrupted. Failure to adhere to these rules will seriously reduce the performance

of the RapidDome Dome
