MANUAL CONTROL
Manual control of a KD6 Z-Series Dome includes pan, tilt, zoom, focus, and iris. The address of
the KD6 Z-Series Dome the operator wants to control must be selected as the control camera.
When an operator performs a command, the controller sends out the control data with the control
camera address.
For example, the operator has camera 2 selected as the control camera on the controller. The
operator performs the tilt function on the controller. The controller sends out the tilt command
and camera address 2. All the domes receive the command, but only the dome with address 2
performs the tilt command.
The camera lens in the dome provides automatic iris control. The lens iris adjusts automatically
to the brightness of the scene (unless manual iris is selected at the controller). If the video scene
is dark and auto iris is enabled, the camera automatically opens the lens iris. If the video scene is
bright and auto iris is enabled, the camera automatically closes the lens iris.
3.2
MECHANICAL HOME POSITION
Each unit has a factory set, mechanical "HOME" position. The mechanical home position is a
reference point for the pan and tilt positions. Upon power up, the dome finds its home position.
Every time a VectorScan is started, the scan finds it home position first, then starts the
VectorScan. The unit must be able to find its mechanical home position to program and perform
PreShots and VectorScans.
An operator can send a Scan to its home position at any time using a JPD Series Controller
(OPT>2>2) or KBD-100A Keyboard (F9).
3.3
AUTOMATIC OPERATION
The scan can be programmed to store PreShots and VectorScans. Scan assemblies are
programmed using a JPD Series Controller. Refer to paragraphs 4.1 and 4.2 of this manual for
programming procedures for PreShots and VectorScans, respectively.
3.3.1
PreShot
When a dome receives a command to go to a PreShot, the scan goes to the pan, tilt, zoom,
and focus positions programmed in the PreShot. Perform the following procedure to send a
scan to a PreShot.
