IMPORTANT: for both SF8174V and SF8174:
Refer to the "Panoramic PTZ Installation Guide" in your product CD for design considerations
before you proceed with physical installation.
The camera is intended to be installed with an SD series speed dome camera in a "Panoramic
PTZ" conguration. Users should take the following into account:
1. There is a dominant - subordinate relationship between the sheye camera and the speed
dome. All congurations are done on a PC running the Calibration tool and a web console
with the sheye camera. The computation required for exerting the Panoramic PTZ control
takes place on the sheye camera.

2. In a panoramic PTZ conguration, the sheye camera provides an overview over the 360°
hemispheric eld of view; while the speed dome provides tracking, zooming, and keeping an
object in a view of an adequate size. The conguration is operated via the VAST or Milestone
software with easy clicks and drags.
