Description
A PowerDome is a variable speed PTZ (pan/tilt/zoom) dome camera used in CCTV systems for
discreet surveillance of a remote area. A PowerDome’s operational features are customized and
stored within its own on-board programmable non-volatile memory. PowerDomes are programmed
using Vista NPX/R/KDB/J3De or VPD-KBD controller keypads.
1.2
Operation Requirements
The PowerDome has three built-in receivers, two for RS485, PowerDome, and Pelco D, and one for
coaxial UTC control. The dome automatically detects the current protocol. UTC control requires a
Vista Triplex Columbus hard disk recorder and a minimum of one keyboard. A minimum of one
keyboard is required for RS485 control.
