About the Camera Dome
The SpeedDome
®
Ultra camera dome (Figure 1)
mounts indoors or outdoors, and can communicate
with the video controller over a SensorNet 485,
RS422, or Manchester network (Ultra IV only). The
dome consists of a mounting base, and a housing
and rotating eyeball assembly.
Mounting Base
The housing and eyeball assembly connects to the
base using a twist and lock action, which enables
the dome to be easily moved from one location to
another. The base attaches directly to a hard or tile
ceiling, or indirectly to walls or ceilings using one of
many optional housings and mounting structures.
As shown in Figure 2, two base types are offered:
a RUPTB standard base and a RUIOB base with
I/O board.
· RUPTB Base. With this base, video, data, and
power cables are inserted through the base and
attached to the top of the housing and eyeball
assembly, which is then connected to the base.
A lanyard connects between the base and the
housing and eyeball assembly to prevent
cables from being pulled during disassembly.
· RUIOB Base. With this base, video, data, and
power cables are pre-connected to an I/O PC
board. A spring-finger connector on the board
makes electrical contact with the housing and
eyeball assembly as it connects to the base.
Housing and Eyeball Assembly
The housing and eyeball assembly consists
of the following:
· Housing. The housing contains the dome’s
power supply, pan motor, and electronics used
to operate the eyeball. The housing provides
one alarm input and one alarm output using the
RUPTB base, or four alarm inputs and four
alarm outputs using the RUIOB base.
· Eyeball. Gloss black and 120mm (4.75") in
diameter, the eyeball contains a camera, tilt
motor, and associated electronics. The eyeball
enables the camera to pan and tilt to track a
target moving in any direction even as it moves
under the dome.
Two slot covers in the eyeball facilitate access
to the camera, one of which incorporates a
camouflaged lens. Remove both covers to
improve ventilation when the dome is to be
used outdoors.
As shown in Table 1, the housing and eyeball
assembly can be ordered:
· With no base for existing indoor installations or
for mounting outdoors.
· With a RUPTB standard base or RUIOB base
with I/O board for new indoor installations.
· With one of four CCD cameras
- Color NTSC
- Black & White EIA
- Color PAL
- Black & White CCIR.
Each camera has 12X (Ultra III) or 16X
(Ultra IV) optical zoom with continuous auto
focus and back light compensation. Electronic
zoom provides selectable magnification up to
96X (Ultra III) or 128X (Ultra IV).
