1 Features and Functions

1.1 General Introduction

HDCVI (High Definition Composite Video Interfaceis the HD video transmission specifications via the

coaxial cable. It adopts analog modulation technology to transmit progressive HD video.

This product integrates block camera and PTZ together. It is easy to install and use. It enjoys high
resolution, which meets the customers' needs for surveillance at HD level. This product also supports
privacy masking, alarm activation, WDR, high light reduce and some other functions. Comparing with the
traditional HD transmission distance limit, it uses HDCVI technology to guarantee transmission safety
and reliability of the audio/video. Thus, it realizes a real-time surveillance from anywhere at anytime. It
can transmit multiple-signal via one cable and it is easy to operate.

Comparing with the general products, this series HDCVI speed dome has some new features. It
supports long-distance IR night vision and the PTZ rotation speed can automatically adjust according to
the zoom rate of the lens. It supports various languages, real-time clock function and protocol auto
recognition. It supports 360continuously pan, 100tilt and 180auto flip. It can realize no blind spot
monitor.

1.2 Features
This series speed dome has the following features:
1.2.1 HD Video
Megapixel HD resolution.
1.2.2 Long-Distance Transmission without Any Loss
More than 500M transmission distance via 75-3 coaxial cable.
1.2.3 Coaxial Control
Support control signal transmission via the coaxial cable.
1.2.4 On-Screen Menu
This series product menu supports multiple languages.
It is easy for you to view dome information and configure dome, camera parameters.
1.2.5 Proportional Pan and Tilt
This function keeps the image from moving too fast when there is a large amount of zoom.
This series speed dome continually decreases or increases pan and tilt speeds in proportion to depth of
zoom. When zooms speed is increasing, the camera moving speed becomes slow. When zooms speed
is decreasing, the camera moving speed becomes fast.
1.2.6 On-screen Tips
Via menu, here you can view:
Call preset and preset ID, speed dome title when calling touring.
Dome system temperature.
Dome address, direction.
1.2.7 Preset
Preset function is to save the address information (such as PTZ pan/tilt, focus and etc) to the memory so
that you can quickly adjust the dome and PTZ to the correct position.

1
 Dahua HDCVI Intelligent Speed Dome Users Manual
1.2.8 Auto Scan
Camera scans back and forth regularly in a horizontal field. Here you need to set left and right limit and
scan speed.
1.2.9 Auto Tour
Add presets into a routine in a desired order and then set time and stop duration for each address. The
dome will begin an auto touring between these presets.
1.2.10 Auto Pattern
Memorize dome operation such as pan, tilt, and zoom to repeat. You can call it to repeat the previous
operation.
1.2.11 Privacy Masking
Privacy masking is a user-defined, four-sided area that can not be viewed by you. The masking area will
move with pan and tilt functions and automatically adjust in size as the lens zooms.
1.2.12 Action on Alarm
There are 2 alarm inputs (NO/NC) and 1 NO outputs. Alarms can be individually programmed to initiate
an associated operation when received.
1.2.13 Auto Flip
As long as you continue to hold the keyboard joystick in the down position, the dome rotates 180
degrees and repositions itself for uninterrupted viewing of any subjects that passes directly beneath the
dome.
1.2.14 Self-diagnosis
There is a self diagnosis procedure when dome boots up.
Tilt and vertical engine check
Camera diagnosis
1.2.15 Day/Night Mode (B/W & Color Mode)
There are several modes such as photosensor/auto/color/B&W. This function needs the speed dome
driver (camera) supported.
1.2.16 Auto Focus
Support auto focus function.
1.2.17 Backlight Compensation
Balance the brightest and darkest sections of a scene to produce a more vivid picture.
1.2.18 Pan Tilt and Zoom
Supports zoom in and zoom out during tilt and pan movement.
In this period auto focus and auto iris can still get vivid image.
1.2.19 3D Intelligent Location
Support 3D intelligent positioning function, speed dome can auto track to the specified zone. .
1.2.20 Idle Status
When there is no available order for specified period, the speed dome can implement previously set idle
operation.
1.2.21 Power up
The speed dome executes the power up operation after it rebooted and completed the initialization. The
power up function includes auto, preset, scan, tour, pattern and none.
1.2.22 Image Flip
You can enable image flip in the menu. The flip function allows you to view continuous video.
This function needs the speed dome driver (camera) supported.

2 Preparation Works
These series products support two control modes: Serial/HDCVI.
For HDCVI series product, please select control mode as HDCVI. The control signal is sent to the
PTZ via the coaxial cable.
For the serial mode, the control signal is sent to the PTZ via the RS485 port.

2.1 HDCVI
Important
If you want to control the speed dome via the coaxial cable, you need to use the corresponding
HDCVI DVR.
Please go to the PTZ setup interface of the DVR and then set the control mode as HDCVI and the
protocol as DH-SD1. You do not need to set address and the baud rate. See Figure 2-1.
Please refer to the HDCVI series DVR users manual for detailed information.
After the setup, please connect the DVR to the speed dome via the video cable. Now you can control the
speed dome.

Figure 2-1

2.2 Serial
If you want to control the speed dome via the serial port, please set the control mode as serial. The
address, baud rate and parity value shall be the same as the dial switch of the speed dome. Otherwise,
you can not control the speed dome.

2.2.1 Protocol/Baud Rate /Address Setup

Important
If you are using HDCVI series DVR to control the speed dome, you can skip this chapter.

3
 Dahua HDCVI Intelligent Speed Dome Users Manual
Before you use serial port to control the speed dome, you need to follow the contents listed below to set
address, baud rate, parity and etc. Otherwise, you can not control the device.

There are two dial switch buttons on the PCB of one side of the speed dome (There are labels.). For the
dial switch button 1-8, 1-3 is the NC, 4 is the 120 resistance setup button, ON is to connect to 120
resistance, 5/6 is the party button and 7/8 is the baud rate button. 1 is the lowest bit and the 8 is the
highest bit. You can use them to set speed dome protocol, baud rate, address and etc. See Figure 2-2 .
For the protocol dial switch, you can refer to the following sheet. 1 is the lowest bit and the 8 is the
highest bit.

6 Appendix Lightening Protection and Surge Protection

This series speed dome adopts TVS lighting protection technology. It can effectively prevent damages
from various pulse signals below 4000V, such as sudden lighting and surge. While maintaining your
local electrical safety code, you still need to take necessary precaution measures when installing the
speed dome in the outdoor environment.

The distance between the signal transmission cable and high-voltage device (or high-voltage cable)
shall be at least 50 meters.
Outdoor cable layout shall go under the penthouse if possible.
For vast land, please use sealing steel tube under the land to implement cable layout and connects
one point to the earth. Open floor cable layout is forbidden.
In area of strong thunderstorm hit or near high sensitive voltage (such as near high-voltage
transformer substation), you need to install additional high-power thunder protection device or
lightning rod.
The thunder protection and earth of the outdoor device and cable shall be considered in the building
whole thunder protection and conform to your local national or industry standard.
System shall adopt equal-potential wiring. The earth device shall meet anti-jamming and at the
same time conforms to your local electrical safety code. The earth device shall not short circuit to N
(neutral) line of high voltage power grid or mixed with other wires. When connect the system to the
earth alone, the earth resistance shall not be more than 4 and earth cable cross-sectional area
shall below 25 mm2. See Figure 6-1.

Diameter and the Transmission Distance
It is the recommended transmission distance when the cable diameter is fixed and the 24V AC power
consumption is below 10%. For the AC device, the max permission voltage power consumption is 10%.
For example, when a device of rated power 80VA installed from the transformer 35 inches (10m), then
