INTRODUCTION
OVERVIEW
With a weather resistant design, the Integrated High Speed Dome Camera is
applicable for outdoor installations. The dome camera supports all-in-one cabling for
easy installation and can be integrated with CCTV products such as reocrders,
control keyboards, and CCTV accessories for a total surveillance solution. In
addition, a large set of built-in protocols provides connectivity to other surveillance
systems. The built-in protocols include OPTIX 3, Pelco, VCL, Philips, AD-422, and
many others.
GENERAL OPERATION REQUIREMENTS
A minimum of one control device is required for operation, such as a control
keyboard, or a recorder. The CM-512 includes a built-in receiver that decodes
commands from a control device.
Connect dome cameras to other devices, as shown in the diagram below, to
complete a video surveillance system.
System Configuration
Note
To extend the network distance up to 1.2 km (4000 feet) and to protect the connected
devices, OpenEye recommends placing a repeater at the mid-point. However, a repeater
may be needed with network distances less than 1.2 km if the cables used are not CAT 5,
24-gauge cables. Refer to the repeater’s manual for detailed information.
