16 • Wiring and Setup XX134-60-01 Rev 108 SurveyorVFT Camera Dome Quick Guide

Preset 93 (Set Response Line Polarity) (Duplex Only) — The SurveyorVFT checks for polarity of the

command in lines through the auto baud detect feature. The baud detect cycles through 4800+/4800-

/9600+/9600-/19200+/19200-, indicating not only the baud rate it is searching for but also the polarity that the

receive lines are set to. When preset 93 is selected, the dome will periodically cycle the polarity of the COMM

IN+ and COMM IN- lines. During the cycling, pan the joystick and press either the A/I or A/P key. As soon as

one of the respective lights illuminates, press the AUX2 key. This locks in the correct polarity for operation.

Preset 94 (Enter Dome Menu System) — Many SurveyorVFT features are accessed through a series of on-

screen menus. These are accessed by storing preset 94. Recalling preset 94 has no effect. For convenience,

when performing programming, pressing the L-SPD (lens speed) button will display a black background.

Preset 95 (Auto-Baud Detect Feature) — Auto-baud detect functions after installing defaults, using preset

95, when switching Vicoax to NOVA (VPS) and upon power-up when the dome sees an incorrect baud rate

from keypad or control system. It allows the camera dome to detect a new baud rate from the host controller

without having to fully reboot the camera dome and lose all stored configuration parameters. Be sure that

auto home on power up is disabled before executing this command. Symbols are used to display the status of

the detection process. The * symbol indicates that valid data at the correct baud rate has been received, the

X symbol represents a framing error has been received and the - symbol indicates that no data has been

received. Recalling preset 95 has no effect.

Preset 96 (Program Dome Sectors) — The SurveyorVFT has the ability to divide its 360° field-of-view into

sections or sectors. There may be up to 16 sectors and the boundaries for each are programmed for each

individual dome. An individual title may be programmed for each sector and video may be enabled or

disabled.

Storing preset 96 will begin the sector programming process by establishing the left boundary for sector 1.

Pan the camera to the right and press the AP (autopan) key to set the right boundary for sector 1, which is

also the left boundary of sector 2. Continue panning the camera and pressing AP until all 16 boundaries have

been programmed. If fewer than 16 sectors are required, press AP repeatedly at the right boundary of the last

sector you will be programming to use up all the boundary numbers and exit sector-programming mode.

When the camera is moved, the corresponding sector title is displayed on the screen (when sector titles have

been enabled). If the video is disabled for a given sector, a black screen with the words “Blank Sector” will

appear when the camera enters that sector and video will be restored when the camera moves to a sector

where video is enabled. Sector programming can be aborted by issuing a preset recall; this will also erase

any prior sector programming. Recalling preset 96 has no effect.

Preset 97 (Initiate Dome Reset) — Storing preset 97 resets all of the system software and performs the

power-on self-test. This is called a “soft reset” because no memory settings are affected. All user

programmed options such as titles and presets remain unchanged. Recalling preset 97 has no effect.

Preset 98 (Programming Autopan Limits) — When a SurveyorVFT is selected on a keyboard, pressing the

AP (autopan) key will start the camera in motion, panning at a predetermined speed.

• To change the speed — Press and hold the AP key while moving the joystick to the desired speed.

When the speed is correct, release the AP button and then the joystick. Each dome may have its own

autopan speed and pressing the autopan key will start the dome panning at the last speed selected for

that dome. (When using a Kollector DVR, shut off AP, move the slider to desired speed and press AP

again.) In continuous rotation only, the autopan command will cause the dome to reverse direction.

• To stop autopanning — Any other pan command will disable autopan. This includes pressing the AP

key again, panning the camera with the joystick, or recalling a preset.

• To set the autopan limits — When a continuous rotation dome is in autopan, it will rotate in a full

circle until autopan is disabled. When an application, such as a wall-mounted camera on a building,

does not require continuous rotation, limits are set to define the left and right boundaries. Storing

preset 98 will bring up a series of prompts to set the left and right autopan limits with the AUX 2 and

AUX 3 keys. When the autopan limits are set and the camera is placed into autopan it will pan until it

reaches a limit. It will then reverse direction until it reaches the opposite limit, repeating this cycle

indefinitely.
