Introduction 

The information in this manual covers the installation, operation, and maintenance of the Surveyor4 Series of 
Miniature Fixed-Position Camera Domes. This unit should only be installed by a qualified technician using 
approved materials in accordance with national, state and local wiring codes. Read this manual through 
completely before attempting installation. 
 
Vicon’s Surveyor4 Series of Miniature Fixed-Position Camera Domes offers a compact indoor domed housing 
incorporating a fixed camera and lens combination. They are configured for in-ceiling installation. The domes 
include a standard or high-resolution monochrome or color camera with a choice of manual varifocal or varifocal 
autoiris lenses. A smoked lower dome is included. A model is available that offers twisted pair video connection. 
A UTP receiver is required for twisted pair configurations. Refer to Table 1 for complete model descriptions. 
 
The camera position is adjustable in four directions, allowing for adjustment of pan, tilt, vertical height in the 
dome and rotation about the lens axis (roll), for any angle of view required. The lens iris and focus can be 
adjusted, as well as selecting a wide or telephoto angle of view. The monochrome version offers automatic 
internal crystal or line lock detection and selection of autoiris or manual iris control. The color version offers 
selection of both internal crystal/line lock and iris control. The cameras accept 24 VAC input. Two housings 
have be designed if a pendant configuration is required, use the V4-H-P (XX028-20) for indoor applications or 
SUR4-PH (XX028-10) for outdoor applications. Check with your Vicon representative for availability. 
 
The Surveyor4 Miniature Fixed-Position Camera Dome series meets FCC requirements for a Class A device.
