1. Connecting the Camera Cable
Before
mounting the camera, it is
important to connect it correctly.
Run the cable through the mounting
1.
arm or bracket you would like to
use.
Make sure you run the cable
2.
through starting with the camera
end (not the end with the BNC
connectors - they’re too big to fit).
Once the cable has been pulled
3.
through, plug it into the top of the
camera.
If you’re planning to mount the
4.
dome outside, cover the screw
threads with a silicon sealant before
screwing the unit together. Failing
to do so will compromise the
waterproofing of the dome.
Then, screw the mounting arm/
5.
bracket onto the dome.
Be careful not to damage the connectors
on the end of the cable or to the camera,
particularly when unplugging the
camera, as the connectors are fragile!
3. Connecting the RS485 Cables
Remove the RS485 plug from the back of
1.
the PTZ controller.
Insert the WHITE wire into the -B side of
2.
the RS485 plug, and screw into place.
Insert the PURPLE wire into the +A side of
3.
the RS485 plug, and screw into place.
Plug the RS485 plug into the RS485 port
4.
on the back of the PTZ controller.
Note:
If you need a longer cable to reach
the location you’d like to put the PTZ
controller, the RS485 cable can be extended.
If you are unfamiliar with cable construction
and maintenance, we suggest getting a
professional to do this.
