CONTROL FUNCTIONS
UNIT PARAMETERS
Alarm sense, camera on-screen display and baud rate can all be
controlled by the dipswitches. The alarm sense can be set to accept
either contact closures (NO) or contact openings (NC) as the alarm
condition. The camera on-screen display will show icons on the monitor
when zoom, focus, and iris are used. Factory presets are contact closures
for the alarm sense, "off" for the camera on-screen display, and 9600
baud. To change parameters, power down the unit, remove the pan/tilt
from the housing, and set the desired parameter using switches 1 and
2 as directed in chart 2 below. Replace the unit and power up. In UTC
mode there is nothing further to do. However, if you're operating in
485 mode you must reset the address AFTER POWERING BACK UP
following the instructions above.

Zoom, Focus and Iris
Using the manual focus commands leaves the unit in manual
focus mode. Using the manual iris commands will leave the
unit in manual iris mode as well. Zooming the camera will
restore the camera to auto-focus and auto-iris. Goto preset
89 will also restore auto-focus and auto-iris.
Protocols
The DeputyDome is commanded electrically via RS-485
4-wire protocol. The transmitter is disabled when not in use
to allow multiple camera systems to be tied to the same
response pair.
Control protocols supported are VL-422 (detailed in the
Appendix) and Pelco-P and Pelco-D. The DeputyDome will
automatically sense which protocol is being used and respond
to it. Baud rates of 9600 (factory default) and 4800 are avail-
able. See the Unit Parameters section above for instructions
on setting the baud rate.

NOTE:
Erasing the EEPROM will override the other switch settings.
If the EEPROM is erased, power the unit off, set the switches
to the desired baudrate, alarm position and display mode , with
SW4 and SW5 ON and SW6 OFF, then power the unit on again.
Finally power the unit off, set the address and make sure that
SW6 is ON, power the unit on and begin normal operation.

Presets
The DeputyDome has 64 presets that can be used individually
or as part of an autotour. To program a preset, set the pan, tilt,
zoom, focus and backlight compensation settings to the desired
value. Issue the command to store/program the preset number
using an appropriate controller. (See the Appendix) When the
Goto Preset number command is given, the system will move
to the stored pan, tilt, zoom, focus and backlight settings at the
highest available speed.
Autotour
The Autotour function causes the camera to automatically go,
in sequence, to each preset that has been programmed into the
PTZ. The dwell time at each preset position can be individually
set to be from 0 to 99 seconds. See the Menu Driven Set-
tings section to learn how to set dwell time. The Autotour will
continue until a pan or tilt command is given. If the unit loses
power while in Autotour, Autotour will be resumed when power
is restored.
Pattern
The DeputyDome allows recording of two patterns with each
pattern being up to 2 minutes in length.
This is a separate feature from Autotour.
To record a pattern:
1. If the camera is in autotour, use the joystick to stop it.
2. Clear all customized presets such as preset 1, 2, 3 etc.
(
Note:
Once the pattern has been recorded, the presets can
be set again
)
3. Set preset 80 (8->0->#->Set) to begin recording pattern 1
(or set preset 79 to begin recording pattern 2)
4. Use joystick to move the camera (the movement is recorded)
5. Set preset 81 (8->1->#->Set) to stop recording
(for Pattern 1 or 2)
To run a pattern:
1. If the camera is in autotour, use the joystick to stop it.
2. Go to preset 80 (8->0->Set) to run Pattern 1
(or go to preset 79 to run Pattern 2)
To stop a pattern:
Move the joystick
Note:
1.
Pattern and Autotour are different processes. Make sure to
use joystick to stop one before initiating another.
2.
In case there is a power outage, the camera would go to
Home position after the power is recovered.
3.
To erase a recorded pattern, just record a new pattern and
the old one will be automatically erased.
Additional Functions
Additional functions are available using Goto Preset above
the normal preset range. The table below describes these
functions.
