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 available. See the Unit Parameters section above for instructions on
setting the baud rate.
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 Ap-
pendix) 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.

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.

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 Settings 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.
