1.01 Introduction 1.03 Detection Ranges IRIS216 and IRIS316 Thermal Imaging PTZ cameras convert heat emitted and reflected from objects into a detailed visual image. This means they can be used to provide visibility in absolute zero light conditions. Based on NATO criteria for Human and Typical Vessel targets. Actual range may vary depending on camera set up, environmental conditions, user experience and type of monitor or display used.
2.01 Warnings & Important Product Information WARNING: Installation and Operation This product must be installed and operated in accordance with these instructions. Failure to do so may result in poor product performance, damage to the product or vessel and or personal injury. Installation should only be carried out be qualified personnel or by persons competent in electrical systems. WARNING: Power Supply and Grounding Ensure the boats power supply is switched off during installation.
3.01 Examples of Typical Systems A basic configuration will consist of a single camera, a camera controller and a viewing medium (either a dedicated video monitor or a multi-functional display (MFD)). The video feed from the camera is routed directly into the MFD, and the control data from the joystick is sent directly to the camera.
4.01 Camera Control Data 4.04 Installation Considerations IRIS216/316 cameras are controlled via an RS485 serial data connection, using a variant of the Pelco-D CCTV camera control protocol. The Pelco-D protocol was designed to provide accurate controls for a wide range of standard CCTV features, such as pan, tilt, user preset features etc, but do not include features specific to thermal imaging cameras and other extended features supported by Iris cameras.
5.01 Hardware Installation The different parts of your camera are labelled here: Fixing Plate (IRIS-BRK-P160) For mounting onto flat surfaces, either standard or hanging orientation. Umbilical Cable (Gland only shown here) 3 meter cable tail.
Hardware Installation Fix camera to mounting plate, routing umbilical cable through cable entry hole, then fix mounting plate to surface. Camera can be installed either in the hanging orientation as shown below, or in the ʻdesktopʼ orientation as shown in the inset. Cable Entry Route umbilical cable through here. M5 x 10mm Countersunk Screws (Supplied) in 3 positions. Fix Mounting Plate to base of camera M5 x 10mm Countersunk Screws (Supplied) in 3 positions.
6.01 Connections As shown in the diagram below, a 3.5 meter ʻumbilicalʼ cable tail extends from the base of the camera and is terminated with a water resistant circular ʻAviationʼ connector. Into this connects a 500mm ʻBreakoutʼ lead, which has three separate tails as shown. One for Video, one for DC 12V Power, and a third for RS485 Serial Data connection.
7.01 Controlling the Camera Extended Features Your camera features positional controls and extended features. Positional features such as Pan, Tilt and Zoom are usually controlled via a compatible joystick controller, such as the IRIS516 or IRIS507 controllers or via a compatible MFD / ChartPlotter - sometimes via touch-screen controls depending on the make and model. Third party control methods may differ from Iris controllers.
User Presets The camera has a built in memory that can be used to store up to 100 user ʻpresetʼ positions. A preset allows you to move the camera to a favourite or important position and learn that position so that the camera can be instructed to move at top speed to that position at the touch of a button. For example, you may want to point the camera so that itʼs facing directly aft so you can take a look at whatʼs coming up behind you.
8.01 Protocol Command List The table below lists features specific to IRIS216/316 Thermal Cameras that are not covered by the standard Pelco-D protocol and the commands that have been mapped in IRIS camera software to operate those features. Values are shown in hexadecimal. The checksum for all Pelco-D commands is the 8 bit (modulo 256) sum of the payload bytes (bytes 2 ~ 6) within the message. Refer to the Pelco-D protocol document for further information.

9.01 Camera Address Table The cameras unique device address is set using DIP switch Bank 1. The following table lists switch positions for each address from 0~38. There are a total of 255 address positions available. For address settings above 38 please contact Iris Innovations technical support. Do not use address 0 as this is rarely used by control equipment.
