1. Connecting the Camera Cable

Before mounting the camera, it is

important to connect it correctly.

Run the cable through the mounting 1.

arm or bracket you would like to

use.

Make sure you run the cable 2.

through starting with the camera

end (not the end with the BNC

connectors - they’re too big to ﬁt).

Once the cable has been pulled 3.

through, plug it into the top of the

camera.

If you’re planning to mount the 4.

dome outside, cover the screw

threads with a silicon sealant before

screwing the unit together. Failing

to do so will compromise the

waterprooﬁng of the dome.

Then, screw the mounting arm/5.

bracket onto the dome.

Be careful not to damage the connectors

on the end of the cable or to the camera,

particularly when unplugging the

camera, as the connectors are fragile!

3. Connecting the RS485 Cables

Remove the RS485 plug from the back of 1.

the PTZ controller.

Insert the WHITE wire into the -B side of 2.

the RS485 plug, and screw into place.

Insert the PURPLE wire into the +A side of 3.

the RS485 plug, and screw into place.

Plug the RS485 plug into the RS485 port 4.

on the back of the PTZ controller.

Note: If you need a longer cable to reach

the location you’d like to put the PTZ

controller, the RS485 cable can be extended.

If you are unfamiliar with cable construction

and maintenance, we suggest getting a

professional to do this.

101010

NOTE: Before you begin, be sure that there are no live electrical cables in the area

you wish to mount the camera.

To mount the camera:

After connecting the camera as described on page 8 and installing the cables as

shown on page 9, place it in the desired location. Then, using an appropriate screw

for the surface you’re ﬁxing the dome to, screw the arm/bracket into place.

Ensure you have enough cable coming through the mounting arm/bracket to

connect it to your system. If you want to run the cables through a wall/ceiling, be

sure to drill a hole for the cable as well.

Placement Tips

For best results, carefully consider where you want to mount the dome. Whilst the

optimal placement solution will vary form application to application depending

on intent of installation, the environment of use and the lighting conditions

encountered there, there are a few points which are almost universal.

What you want to monitor:

The most obvious factor to consider when planning where to install your camera is

the question of what you wish to monitor, and how a movable PTZ system can be

incorporated into your speciﬁc environment.

Ensure that the camera is located close enough to what you want to monitor •

to capture the required details. For example, if you wish to capture the details

of a face, the camera should be located within a dozen feet (about 4m) of

the subject. This is also true if trying to read printed information - such as a

vehicle’s registration plate.

Try to place the camera in an position that a potential security threat will ﬁnd •

it difﬁcult to avoid.

A strategy which is often effective is to monitor entrances and exits - after all, •

a security threat has to get in somewhere.

Mounting the Camera

11

Field of view

The PRO-650 can pan a full 360º. This means that (for example) installing the

PRO-650 in a tight corner is probably not an ideal utilization of its potential! A wall

is a better option, as it allows 180º of view for the camera. A freestanding pole

of sufﬁcient height and integrity to reliably hold the camera securely is an ideal

choice, as is the centre of the ceiling in a larger room or a warehouse.

Height

For best results, the PRO-650 PTZ Dome should be mounted as high up as

practicable. This is because the camera has complete freedom of tilt movement

in the 90º below the horizontal plane. Stated more simply, it can see things below

it, but not above! Extensions for the provided mounting hardware are available

through our online store.

Joining Cables

We strongly advise against the modiﬁcation (i.e. cutting and/or joining) of video

cables. Each cut/join will noticeably reduce video quality, and increase the chances

of the system failing over time. We also advise against using cable joiners/adaptors

to plug multiple cables together. Rather, we suggest using a single unmodiﬁed

video cable, chosen in accordance with the guidelines below.

Recommended Cable Length and Type

Being a semi-professional PTZ dome system, the PRO-650 beneﬁts greatly from

being installed using high quality cables to minimise video signal loss. This becomes

particularly important if using a cable longer than approximately 100ft/35m. The

longer the cable used to carry the video signal, the more noticeable the reduction

in video quality will become.

To maximise the quality of the video signal, consider using a high quality video

cable or installing your monitor/recording device closer to the PTZ dome. Of course,

in many circumstances, moving the monitor/recording device is not a viable option;

in these cases, a high quality cable is the best solution.

For optimal results, use a single, unbroken coaxial cable with a solid

copper core and copper braid shielding.

Exposure to Weather

The Pro-650 PTZ Dome is weather and water resistant (rated IP66). However, be

aware that long term exposure to adverse weather conditions (extreme temperature

uctuation, excessive moisture or direct sunlight) may eventually interfere with the

correct operation of the unit.

IMPORTANT: If mounting the camera outside, be sure to properly seal all

joints in the mounting arm/bracket using a silicon sealant. If this is not

fully sealed, water can enter the dome causing malfunction or failure.

121212

Configuring the PTZ Controller

Setting the Command Address

The included PTZ controller is capable of controlling multiple PTZ cameras. Thus,

each camera needs its own unique identiﬁcation (a “Command Address”).

To deﬁne a camera’s Command Address, connect the camera (and only that

camera) to the PTZ controller. Then:

Press the CAM key. The display will now show Axxx (where “xxx” is the current •

Command Address assigned to the controller).

Enter the Command Address that you’d like to assign to the camera. For •

numbers higher than 10, press the -/-- key ﬁrst.

Press and hold the PRESET button. The display will change to SET-•

To conﬁrm changes to the Command Address setting, press the SETUP button. •

The display will show –OH–.

The camera’s Command Address has now been changed to your desired •

value.

Please note that if you press the CAM button then enter a number, you are changing

the Command Address in the PTZ controller, but not in any cameras. Holding

PRESET then pressing SETUP applies that address to the connected cameras.

When we deﬁne a command address, that address is applied to all cameras

connected to the controller at once. Thus, if you have two cameras connected

to the PTZ controller at once, enter a command address of “005” into the PTZ

controller and press PRESET then SETUP, both cameras will now respond to the

controller on Command Address 005, and cannot be operated individually until

one camera’s Command Address is changed so that both are unique.

Default Settings:

Protocol = Pelco-D

Baud Rate = 2400bps

To ensure that the Controller knows how to

command the PRO-650, we need to make sure

it is using the correct Protocol and Baud Rate. If

these are not set correctly, the PRO-650 will not

operate properly (or at all).

To change the Protocol and Baud Rate:

Press and hold the SETUP button.•

The display on the Controller will change to a letter (either “d” or “p”) and a •

number (12, 24, 48 or 96).

The letter represents the current protocol, either Pelco-P or Pelco-D.•

The number is the abbreviated Baud Rate. •

(i.e. “12” represents 1200bps, “24” represents 2400bps and so on)

Use the UP and DOWN arrows to change the Protocol.•

Use LEFT and RIGHT to change the Baud Rate.•

When set correctly, the letter should be “d” and the number “24”•

Press ENTER to save your changes.•

13

Connecting Multiple PTZ Systems

Connecting multiple PTZ systems to the included controller is a convenient way to

be able to access and control a complex, multi-camera system from one central

location. This is, however, and advanced feature of PTZ systems, and should

only be attempted by those experienced with security system and/or networking

technologies. In a nutshell: multiple systems can be connected to the RS485 cable

in a bus or line conﬁguration. The exact details of the wiring solution will vary by

environment - the following is presented only as a guide.

Please Note: If you already have, or are planning on getting, a PTZ capable Swann

DVR, then using the supplied PTZ controller is optional. The PTZ system can be

controlled by the RS485 connection built into the DVR.

In the above example, three PTZ domes have been connected to the one central

controller. To achieve this wiring arrangement:

Connect the PTZ systems one at a time, and follow the instructions opposite •

to assign each camera a separate command address.

Multiple cameras sharing a command address can cause problems when •

implementing a system. In the best case scenario, two or more PTZ systems

sharing a command address will move synchronously, without the option to

move each camera separately. Often, a shared command address will prevent

the system from operating normally.

Once each camera has a command address deﬁned, they can be connected •

simultaneously.

Take the purple (+) wires, and connect all three to the +A side of the RS485 plug.•

Repeat for white (-) wires, and connect all three to the -B side of the RS 485 plug.•

Connect the RS485 plug to the PTZ controller.•

solution for integrating multiple PTZ

systems to the one controller.

Operating the Camera

Moving the Camera

The easiest way to move the camera is to use the directional buttons. In the

standard live control mode, the camera will move in the direction of the button

which you press.

To make the camera pan left or right, press and hold the LEFT or RIGHT •

directional button, respectively. You can hold down either button continuously,

the camera will continue to pan left or right (around a circle) indeﬁnitely.

To tilt the camera up and down, use the up and down buttons. Note that whilst •

the camera can pan inﬁnitely, the tilt has only a 90º freedom of movement. It

can see everything that happens below the dome, but not above it.

To make objects in the view appear bigger or smaller use the ZOOM controls.•

Setting a Preset Point

Setting Preset Points allows you to program movements for your camera system

to repeat over time, or to remember a speciﬁc viewpoint for easy access later. The

PRO-650 can store up to 16 user-deﬁned Preset Positions.

Using the directional arrow buttons, move the camera into the position that •

you’d like it to store as a Preset Position.

Press the PRESET button on the remote, and hold for two seconds.•

The display will now read “SET-”•

Press a number key to assign a Preset number to the position. To deﬁne a •

Preset Position with a value higher than 10, press the -/-- button ﬁrst.

The information in this section assumes that you have the PRO-650 attached

to the supplied IR receiver/PTZ Controller module and have followed the

instructions on page 10 for conﬁguring the Command Address, Protocol

and Baud Rate settings.

Alternately, if you have the RS485 connections to the PRO-650 attached to a

PTZ capable DVR, then use the PTZ controls through your DVR (consult your DVR

manual for more details).

Accessing a Preset Point

The easiest way to access the preset points, use the shortcut buttons, marked P1

through P8. Of course, this only works for the ﬁrst eight Presets. To access Preset

9 and above:

Press the SHOT button.•

If you’re accessing a point above 10, press the -/-- button.•

Enter the number of the Preset you’d like to access.•

Press ENTER to conﬁrm.•

15

Removing a Preset Point

Removing Preset Points is performed in much the same manner as deﬁning them.

Once a Preset Point has been removed, selecting it as detailed opposite will no

longer have any effect, until a new point is set.

Press the DELETE button on the remote, and hold for two seconds.•

The display will now read “Clr-”•

Press a number key to select a Preset Point number. To choose a Preset Point •

with a value higher than 10, press the -/-- button ﬁrst.

Press ENTER to conﬁrm.•

The selected Preset Point will now no longer be set.•

Cruise Mode

Whilst the PRO-650 is in Cruise Mode, the camera will move continuously and

automatically, only pausing when it arrives at Preset Points for a short interval.

There are two ways to enter Cruise mode.

Auto-scan (Cruise) Mode

When in Auto-scan Mode, the PRO-650 will continuously move automatically,

attempting to observe as much of the ﬁeld of view as practicable in the shortest

time it can.

To enter Auto-scan Mode, press AUTO.•

For an alternate Auto-scan mode, go to Preset Point 99.•

Manual Cruise Mode

You can program lists of Preset Points for the PRO-650 to view in order.

First, create all the Preset Points you wish to see, as detailed on page 8.•

Press and hold PATTERN for two seconds. •

The display will now read “PStA”.•

Press the NUMBER button for the ﬁrst Preset Point you want in the programmed •

loop, using the -/-- button to access points higher than 10 if necessary.

Press ENTER once the camera has moved to that Preset Point to conﬁrm.•

Repeat for the other Preset Points you want on the loop, in the order that you •

want them to be accessed. Remember to press ENTER each time to conﬁrm

your selection.

Press and hold PATTERN for two seconds. The display will now show “PSt0” •

conﬁrming that the pattern programming has ended and the pattern has been

saved.

Press RUN to initiate the programmed pattern, and press RUN again to stop •

the pattern.

To reset the Cruise Mode settings to their default values, press PRESET followed •

by -/--, and enter “240”.

Advanced Operation

The numerical command functions shown in this section are recommended

only for advanced users. Improper use of these commands may interfere

with the functionality of the PTZ system.

The PRO-650 PTZ dome can accept many additional commands to those already

listed. As there are not enough buttons on the remote control to assign one to

each function or setting applicable to the dome, they are presented and used as a

series of numerical commands.

To execute an advanced numerical command function:

Press the PRESET, CLEAR or GOTO button (as applicable) on the remote control.•

As all numerical commands are more than a single digit, press the -/-- button.•

Additional Functions

Auto-Home Function

The PRO-650 can be conﬁgured to automatically return to it’s master Preset Point,

the “Home Point”. This is particularly useful for monitoring a door, hallway, car

space or similar, where the default position of the camera should be viewing this

location.

To turn Auto-Home ON and OFF use the numerical command shown opposite.

The numerical commands are “81” to enable the Auto-Home function, and “82”

to disable it. You can also change the wait time (the amount of time the camera

will spend stationary before defaulting to the home point) by using numerical

shortcuts 77 - 80.

The Home Point is stored as PRESET 76. Deﬁning this Preset Point will redeﬁne

the Home Point. To remove the Home Point, follow the instructions for deleting a

Preset Point, and DELETE Preset Point 76.

F1 - F4 Shortcut Buttons

These are user-deﬁned buttons, which can be used as master shortcut buttons.

Deﬁning the behaviour of shortcut buttons is complex, and not recommended

for novice or intermediate users. Proper usage of the shortcut interface requires

detailed knowledge of PELCO-P/D protocols. In this example, we’ll set F1 to be a

shortcut key to access Preset Point 8. The PELCO command for this operation is:

0x00 0x07 0x00 0x08.

Press the SHOT button, followed by -/--. Key in “240” and press ENTER.•

The LED display will now show “0---”•

Input X, where X is the F button you wish to assign the shortcut to. In this •

example, as we want to deﬁne F1, enter “1” and press ENTER.

The display will now show “1---”. In this example, we wish to enter “0” •

(abbreviation of 0x00 in hexadecimal).

The display will now show “2---”. Continuing the above example, enter “7” and •

press ENTER.

The display will now show “3---”. Enter “0”, press ENTER.•

The display will now show “4---”. Enter “8”, press ENTER.•

Once this has been deﬁned, pressing F1 will instantly take the camera to Preset Point 8.

To create other customised shortcut programs you’ll need a list of commands for PTZ

protocols. These are easily obtained via the Internet - just enter the protocol you’d like

into a good search engine and you’ll ﬁnd several lists compiled by different authorities.

The speciﬁc protocol you’ll use depends on your needs and limitations of your speciﬁc

setup. If in doubt, we suggest hiring an experience installer/technician.

Troubleshooting Guide

Problem: My DVR is in Motion Detection mode, and continually records whilst the

camera is moving.

Solution: This is not a malfunction. When a DVR looks for “motion”, what it is

really doing is looking for a change between one image it captures and the next.

Therefore, it doesn’t matter whether it’s something the camera sees or the camera

itself that is moving, the DVR will interpret the change as movement. Turn off

Motion Detection on your DVR if you are using the PRO-650 in Cruise Mode.

Problem: I cannot control the PTZ features of the camera.

Solution: Check the integrity of your connections, particularly the RS485 connection

and the power supply. Be sure the (+A) and (-B) terminals are connected the right

way around. If this does not help, then the PTZ settings in your controller may be

set incorrectly. Check the Command Address, Protocol (Default: Pelco-D) and Baud

Rate (Default: 2400 bps) settings in your PTZ controller, and correct them where

necessary. If you have only one camera attached to the PTZ controller, then follow

the instructions on page 10 to set the camera’s settings to match the controller.

Problem: I don’t know my Command Address!

Solution: You can either go through them one at a time to see which one works,

or follow the instructions on page 10 to reset the Command Address.

Problem: The camera won’t turn on.

Solution: Check your power adaptor is the right one for the PRO-650 (DC 12V).

Make sure both the camera and the PTZ controller are supplied power.

Problem: I can’t see anything at night.

Solution: Whilst the PRO-650 has great low-light vision (needing only 0.01 Lux)

it does need some light. If used in a pitch-black environment, it will not be able to

see anything. Consider illuminating your subject - perhaps simply leaving a light on

will make all the difference. If you really need to see in absolute darkness, consider

upgrading to a camera with infrared night-vision built in.

Problem: After running the dome for an extended period, it seems to lose precision.

Solution: The PTZ system needs to be re-initialized - this is the same procedure the

dome undertakes when turned ON. To do this, either disconnect and reconnect power

to the dome, or press PRESET followed by “-/--”, input “241” and press ENTER. The

camera will re-calibrate itself, and accuracy of the pan/tilt system will improve.

Problem: The camera returns to the HOME position too quickly/slowly.

Solution: Change the HOME point wait time. To do this, press PRESET followed

by “-/--”. Then, enter a number from 77 - 80 based on the table below, and press

ENTER to conﬁrm.

77 = 64 Seconds 79 = 192 Seconds

78 = 128 Seconds 80 = 255 Seconds

Problem: How do I enable / disable the AUTO HOME point function?

Solution: In the same way as changing the HOME point wait time. Press PRESET

then “-/--”. Then, enter “81” and press ENTER to toggle AUTO HOME ON or “82”

to turn it OFF.
