Controllable Pan/Tilt
CCTV Colour Camera
Please read these operating instructions carefully
prior to installing the unit and keep them for later use.
1 Applications
This colour camera in a dome housing for ceiling
mounting has especially been designed for use in
video surveillance systems. It is equipped with a zoom
lens provided with a DC-controlled iris (DC lens).
The camera can be controlled (panning, tilting, dig-
ital zooming) via the remote control RMA-350 from
MONACOR (up to 99 cameras can be controlled).
2 Safety Notes
The camera corresponds to all required directives of
the EU and is therefore marked with
The unit is suitable for indoor use only. Protect it
against humidity and heat (admissible ambient tem-
perature range 0 – 40 °C).
For cleaning the dome housing only use a dry, soft
cloth, by no means chemicals or water.
Never touch the lens with your fingers. For cleaning
it, only use special detergents for optical lenses.
No guarantee claims for the camera and no liability
for any resulting personal damage or material
damage will be accepted if the camera is used for
other purposes than originally intended, if it is not
correctly mounted or connected, or not repaired in
an expert way.
If the camera is to be put out of operation
definitively, take it to a local recycling plant for
disposal which is not harmful to the environ-
ment.
3 Operation
3.1 Terminating resistor
Set the DIP switch No. 1 (8) on the lower side of the
camera to be connected as the last camera at the end
of the RS-485 control line to position ON (even if only
one camera is connected). Thus, the control line is
terminated with an internal resistor. Do not set this
switch to ON on the other cameras.
3.2 Camera address
The camera is factory-set to address 1. To control
several cameras, each camera must be set to an indi-
vidual address with the DIP switches (7). For this pur-
pose remove the housing dome (4). Slightly turn the
dome to the left until it disengages. Remove the cover
(3). [The cover is secured at the lower edge by two
latches opposite to each other]. Now the DIP switches
are accessible.
The address results when adding the binary values
(1, 2, 4 ... 128) of the DIP switches set to position ON.
The easiest way is always to start from the highest

possible binary value and to add the smaller values
until the address results as a sum.
address 1
Important! If the address has been changed with the
operating voltage applied, this must shortly be inter-
rupted, otherwise the camera will not respond to the
new address.
3.3 Mounting
1) Tightly screw the mounting plate (1) to the ceiling in
such a way that the arrow (a) of the plate (fig. 5)
points to the centre of the surveillance area so that
the camera is capable of panning to the left and
right in a uniform way.
.
2) Place the camera on the latches (12) of the mount-
ing plate so that the arrow in fig. 4 also points to the
centre of the surveillance area. Then turn the
camera slightly to the right so that the latches lock
into place.
3.4 Making the Connections
1) Connect the RS-485 control line (9) e. g. to the
remote control RMA-350. The control line can be
extended with a twisted, 2-pole line to a length of
1200 m as a maximum. Connect all cameras in
parallel to this control line.
2) Apply the video signal at the BNC plug (10) via a
screened cable to the video input of a monitor. With
a cable length exceeding 100 m, a video amplifier
should be inserted between the camera and the
cable to compensate cable loss.
3) For power supply, connect a regulated 12 V power
supply unit via a low voltage plug 5.5/2.1 mm (out-
side/inside diameter) to the inline jack (11). Always
observe the polarity: Apply the positive pole to the
inside contact of the plug. As soon as the operating
voltage is applied, the camera will go to its initial
position.
3.5 Adjusting the lens
The front ring (6) of the lens is used for focus setting,
the ring behind it for zooming. The corresponding
adjusting lever is a locking screw at the same time
which must be released prior to adjustment and re-
tightened after adjustment.
1) Switch on the monitor connected and check all
further adjustments via the monitor.
2) Prior to optical zooming, set the digital zoom to
minimum with the remote control.
3) Zoom in the object to be monitored with the zoom
adjusting ring.
4) To obtain the optimum resolution, only use the
digital zoom via the remote control in addition to the
optical zoom if the optical zoom is not sufficient.
5) Finally adjust a clear picture with the focus setting
ring.

3.6 Functions AGC, BLC, FLK, ALC/ELC, and
digital zoom
The DIP switches (5) on the rear side of the camera
module are preset as follows:
x 1
x 1,25

ALC/ELC
Presetting and functions of the DIP switches
Switches 1 and 2 ON:
The digital zoom is adjustable from x 1 to x 3 with the
remote control. If required, this zoom range can be
increased by the factor x 1.25. To activate this change
of zoom, shortly switch on and off the 12 V operating
voltage.
Switch 3 OFF:
The iris control (ALC) is activated and the electronic
shutter (ELC) deactivated. This setting is required for
the DC lens used and must not be changed.
Switch 4 ON:
The flicker compensation (FLK) is deactivated. Set the
switch to OFF when flickering occurs on the monitor
caused by light sources operated with an AC voltage
of 50 Hz.
Switch 5 ON:
The backlight compensation (BLC) is deactivated. Set
the switch to OFF when objects are in the backlight.
Switch 6 OFF:
The automatic gain control (AGC) is activated. This is
the standard setting for surveillance cameras. For
special applications, the AGC can be deactivated.
After all settings have been made, replace the cover
(3) and close the camera with the housing dome (4).
