8 Surveillance System Configuration The NDC surveillance system is suitable for a wide range of surveillance applications. The system can be as single NDC with one keyboard or encompassing as 64 domes with comprehensive matrix switching, PC control and even Digital Video Recording. Such flexibility means future expansion is easily facilitated. 8.1 NDC and Keyboard Single dome configuration: One NDC connects to one P-2653 or P-2654. Telemetry control is sent via twisted pair between NDC and Keyboard.
Multiple Dome means that more than one NDC is linked in the system. Each dome connects to next dome forming a serial linking. Each dome has an individual ID dip switch, which allows the keyboard to identify each NDC and make command. Sometimes it is more convenient to wire a telemetry system in star configuration rather than daisy chain. To do this a PIH-804 data distributor is necessary. It takes an output from a keyboard or a matrix and splits the single data line into 4 separate data lines.
8.2 Initial Power Up Inspection After the power is first applied to a dome it will perform a self-test procedure. This calibrates and checks the basic functions of the dome; control is not possible during this self-test period. Once the camera has stopped moving, it will then be ready to control if preset points and tours have been programmed into a dome and the power is turned off, the dome will enter the Auto Pan (auto scan) mode once the power is turned on again (after self-test period).
Dome Camera Selection To call out a dome controlling or setting. To select 1st NDC Push key 1 follow by CAM key. To select 64th NDC Push key 6 then 4 followed by CAM key. * When matrix system is used, select monitor before camera selection. Please refer to matrix system user manual. Zoom Lens Control To Zoom In Push ZOOM IN key. The viewing angle becomes narrower and target will become enlarged on the screen. Zooming will stop when the key is released. To Zoom Out Push ZOOM OUT key.
Focus Control The focus function of the NDC can be set as Auto Focus or Manual Focus Manual focus far Push FOCUS FAR key. The target will become farther. Focusing will stop when the key is released. (PIH-801 keyboard LCD displays “F=M”) Manual focus near Push FOCUS NEAR key. The target will become nearer. Focusing will stop when the key is released. (PIH-801 keyboard LCD displays “F=M”) Auto Focus Push AUTO FOCUS key. The lens will automatically adjust itself for optimum focus.
Horizontal 180 Instant Flip Some times it is hard to use the joystick to control the camera tracking the target directly under the camera. The instant flip key can rotate the camera 180 instantly. This allows the camera continue to track the target passing directly under the camera. Two ways to operate 180 instant flip: z Push 180o REV key on keyboard to flip the camera 180o horizontally.
2. Selecting Preset point Push key 1 followed by CAM key, confirming that first preset point selected. Example: To select 1st preset point: 1 PRESET key To select 128th preset point: 1 2 8 PRESET keys 3. Joystick Control Move the Joystick to bring the camera to the desired view position. 4. Adjusting Lens ZOOM IN, ZOOM OUT, FOCUS NEAR, FOCUS FAR, FOCUS AUTO, IRIS O, IRIS C, IRIS AUTO keys. When set up preset point, using manual focus will provide both clarity and stability of image. 5.
Note: When PIH-801II keyboard is used, push F1 key to confirm speed entered. When PIH-801 keyboard is used, push F3 key to confirm speed entered. 6. Setting Preset Dwell Time The dwell time means the time user wants to view on certain preset position under Auto Pan the Preset Dwell Time can be set between 0 ~ 255 seconds. (The factory default is 0 second) * If the dwell is set to 0 second then that position will be omitted from the Auto Pan tour. To set dwell to 5 seconds: Push key 5 followed by F2 key.
Setting Preset Group The purpose of setting preset group allows the management of the 16 preset points before auto scanning. The first 16 preset points of each dome are separated in 4 groups. z Group 1 includes: 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th preset points. z Group 2 includes: 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th preset points. z Group 3 includes: 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th preset points. z Group 4 includes: 13th, 14th, 15th and 16th preset points. Preset Group must be set for the auto pan reference.
To change the 4th preset point of the Dome number 3, perform the following steps: 1. Push 3 CAM to select Dome 3. 2. Push 4 PRESET to go to 4th preset point. 3. Move joystick to bring camera to the desired view point. 4. Adjusting lens. 5. Setting preset speed. 6. Setting dwell time. 7. Store Data. Activating Auto Pan When the Auto Pan function is activated, the NDC will auto touring the preset groups entered. Activate Auto Pan: Push AUTO PAN key, confirming the activation of auto pan.
Alarm Management The 6 alarm inputs of each NDC are corresponding with the first 6 preset points. When an alarm signal is triggered, the dome will go to the relevant position at 360o /sec. Make sure the first 6 preset points are set to desired alarm areas. Alarm input can be set to NC (normally close) or NO (normally open) depends on alarm detector.
60 seconds. Not Under Auto Pan Condition When an alarm is triggered not under Auto Pan, the NDC will go to the relevant position at 360o /sec. After 60 seconds the alarm will be canceled automatically, and dome will be back to first preset point. If more than one alarm is triggered, the NDC will move between alarmed points every 5 seconds and back to first preset point after 60 seconds. The audio alert for alarm trigger will remain on until it is manually canceled by push the ALARM RESET key.

Appendix A. Upgrading the Software The NDC software is contained in Flash Memory, a silicon chip allowed to be erased and re-written. It provides an easy way to update the software without change any parts; just simply load the newest software from network. The following procedures are to update the software: Check Software Version Open the home page of NDC in your web browser, go to Configuration -> System -> System Information, you will see the software version--" Firmware Version=2.11R27.02.
Note: If FTP session quits immediately after issued by command, you should continue pinging the NDC instantly. If the NDC replies to the ping command right after pinging, it means the NDC may not enter the self-programming stage to verify the software version. If not updated, then you should reboot the NDC and back to step 3 to try again. For example, the NDC IP address is 192.168.0.200, then C:\temp>ftp 192.168.0.200 Connected to 192.168.0.200. 220 192.168.0.200 NDC FTP server (ARM_BE - V3.0.H) ready.
Reply from 192.168.0.200: bytes=32 time<10ms TTL=255 Reply from 192.168.0.200: bytes=32 time<10ms TTL=255 Ping statistics for 192.168.0.200: Packets: Sent = 13, Received = 5, Lost = 8 (61% loss), Approximate round trip times in milliseconds: Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 2ms, Average = 0ms Control-C C:\temp> C:\> Note: Flash products can become damaged if the updating operation is not performed correctly. So please follow up above procedures carefully.
Appendix B. Upgrade Custom Web Pages The NDC has a built-in web server, so the web contents are contained in Flash Memory, the same as software parts, allowed to erase and re-written. It provides an easy way to update the web pages -- just simply load and issue command from network (FTP and Telnet). Caution: The update of content page is very sensitive to system operation; therefore, incorrect operation may cause system fail to response to any request.
4. Verify updated contents After uploading the custom pages, open browser to verify the correctness of contents. If not correct, modify the pages and return to previous step to upload again. 5. Save the changes to flash Telnet to the NDC. And run command “Up –w” to write the complete web pages into flash.
Appendix C. Emergency Factory Default In certain circumstance, to restore the server to initial factory default state may be necessary, normally processed through web page (Miscellaneous Operation). If the user can’t get into web page (e.g. Missing Username and Password information), then he could use Emergency Factory Default to restore to factory default settings. The username and password will be removed, and the IP address of the device will back to 192.168.0.200. Procedures as below: 1.
