NOTE
If necessary, refit the dust cap attached to the lanyard - to avoid corrosion of the connector terminals.
5. Unhook the Dome from its mounting bracket.
13.2 Monthly checks
z Visually check the mounting bracket for signs of defect or corrosion.
z Check the cable runs between the Dome unit and External Telemetry Unit for
security of attachment and signs of wear.
z Check all mechanical fixings to the building infrastructure for corrosion, wear and
rigidity.
z Issue the customer a written report of any defects (which are beyond the scope
of CCTV maintenance) in the building infrastructure or other equipment.
z Check that the Solaris™ Dome / camera is functioning correctly for:
– Full range of movement, bearing in mind any ‘soft limits’ that may have been
set.
– Slow and fast speeds.
– Picture quality.
z Clean the bubble if necessary. See ‘Bubble Maintenance'.
z Check fan speed (Diagnostic menu). Although the fan speed changes
depending on temperature, it should always run above 50% speed.
z Perform camera lens initialise, followed by a camera reset. See Reset menu in
Section 11.1.2: The Camera menu.
13.3 Bubble maintenance
z When handing the bubble, always hold the outer flange if possible. Handle with
extreme care as the bubble is easily scratched.
z Under no circumstances should you touch the inner surface of the bubble.
z If debris is present on the inner surface, do not wipe it with a cloth. Blow the
debris out of the bubble using a filtered air line or a can of compressed air
(available from electronics suppliers, e.g. RS).
z Small scratches or scuffs can be removed from the outer surface with the use of
a suitable cloth and metal polish (brass cleaner).
