SurveyorVFT Fixed Dome Components
The SurveyorVFT fixed camera dome units consist of an enclosure/housing, a camera mechanism, a shroud, and
a smoked (indoor) or clear (outdoor) lower dome.
Enclosure
The enclosure is a metal shell that houses the camera mechanism for the in-ceiling model. A safety cord and clip
are provided to connect to the camera mechanism during installation. In addition, a small hole is provided on the
side of the enclosure for connection of the lower dome’s safety cord. A removable top cover, a 0.75-inch (19 mm)
conduit fitting and a pair of rotating flippers that give a convenient and sturdy connection of the enclosure into the
ceiling are provided. For in-ceiling installations that do not use conduit pipe, a 0.75-inch (19 mm) strain relief
fitting provides solid cable anchoring at the enclosure.
Camera Mechanism
The camera mechanism includes an integral camera/lens combination, with a color camera and a varifocal lens. It
is designed for easy “snap-in” installation into the enclosure or housing. The camera/lens position can be
manually adjusted. The integral PC board provides wiring connections. For outdoor units, a thermostatically-
controlled heater is provided for temperature control.
Shroud
The shroud is a 5.4 in. (137 mm) textured black ABS plastic shell. It has a 1.4 in. (35.6 mm) slotted opening for
the camera. This shroud conceals the position of the camera and snaps onto the camera drive.
Lower Dome
The lower dome is an assembly comprised of a 5.9 inch (150 mm) diameter acrylic plastic shell, a trim ring and a
safety cord. Lower domes for indoor versions come in a choice of smoked, chrome or gold finishes. Standard
outdoor lower domes are clear and use 4 screws for additional support. All lower domes are anchored to the
enclosure by the safety cord. Refer to the Maintenance section for care.
Housing
The housing for the SurveyorVFT fixed indoor pendant configurations is a molded plastic protective cover for the
camera mechanism; outdoor pendant configurations have a die-cast aluminum housing with a sunshield. The
housing has a 1.5-inch NPT pipe flange mount. In addition, the housing is equipped with a safety cord and clip
that is used to suspend the camera drive during installation. Another safety cord connects the lower dome to the
housing.
Sunshield
A sunshield pre-installed over the housing used on the outdoor pendant version is for radiation sun-blocking
protection.
CAUTION: For any environment subject to moisture, use the outdoor pendant model.

Mounting the Unit
In-Ceiling Mounting
The SurveyorVFT fixed dome rests on the ceiling material and occupies the space between the lower ceiling
and upper building frame. There are two methods of installation. The first method can be used for ceilings
with no access to the space above, as in a typical hard material ceiling. The second method is used for a
ceiling with access, as in the case of a dropped ceiling (metal grid type). All mounting hardware is provided.
Refer to the section on Optional Independent Support for installations requiring additional support (most
commonly, a dropped ceiling).
Using the Provided Scribe
A small metal scribe is provided to assist in marking an accurate hole size in a ceiling tile. Use it as follows.
1. Place the ceiling tile on a large flat surface, face up.
2. Measure and make a small mark at position A from any corner (11.9 in./302 mm). Refer to Figure 1.
3. Measure and make a small mark at position B (8.2 in./208 mm), placing the scribe as perpendicular to the
A-edge as possible.
4. Place the scribe across B and C. Rotate the scribe around center C for a full turn.
5. Cut out the circle using a sharp tool on the scribed line.
Figure 1
Use of the Scribe
Mounting from Below the Ceiling
Use this method of installation if there is no access to the space above. The ceiling material must provide
suitable strength to support the weight of the SurveyorVFT fixed dome with the two flippers on the enclosure.
Be sure the area around the selected location is clear of obstacles (such as steel beams, headers, pipes,
electrical wiring, etc.) that would interfere with mounting. Video, sync, and power cables must be routed to the
location.
1. Mark with the scribe and cut a 7-3/8 in. (187 mm) hole in the ceiling at the desired location. Remove the
tile from a dropped ceiling if necessary. Feed all necessary flexible conduit pipe or cables down through
the hole.

2. If cables are used without the use of flexible conduit:
a. Remove the enclosure top by loosening the 3 screws. Remove the conduit fitting by loosening
the nut and sliding it out. Install the supplied strain relief fitting in its place and re-attach the top
cover.
b. Hold the enclosure near the hole in the ceiling and route cables through the strain relief fitting.
2.
If cables are channeled through flexible cable:
a. Hold the enclosure near the hole in the ceiling and route conduit cables through the conduit
fitting.
b. Insert the end of the flexible conduit pipe into the conduit fitting. Cable length should be flush with
the bottom of the enclosure, approximately 12 in. (305 mm). Tighten the clamp screw.
3. Lift the enclosure up through the ceiling hole. Turn and tighten the flipper screws to obtain a flush fit with
the ceiling plane.
4. Connect the enclosure’s safety cord clip to the tab in the camera mechanism to allow the drive to hang
from the enclosure. Refer to Figure 2 for location of tab.
Continue with section on Cable Connections.
Figure 2
Safety Cord Installation
Mounting from Above the Ceiling
Use this method of installation if there is access to the space above. The ceiling material must provide
suitable strength to support the weight of the SurveyorVFT fixed dome with the two flippers on the enclosure.
Refer to the section on Optional Independent Support for installations requiring additional support. Be sure
the area around the selected location is clear of obstacles (such as steel beams, headers, pipes, electrical
wiring, etc.) that would interfere with mounting. Video, sync, and power cables must be routed to the location.
1. Mark with the scribe and cut a 7-3/8 in. (187 mm) hole in the ceiling at the desired location. Remove tile
from dropped ceiling if necessary. Feed all necessary flexible conduit pipe or cables down through the
hole.
2. Lift the SurveyorVFT enclosure up to the ceiling and snap it into the hole. Turn and tighten the flipper
screws for a flush fit. Connect the enclosure’s safety cord clip to the tab in the camera mechanism to
allow the mechanism to hang from the enclosure. Align the 2 slots on the camera mechanism with the
tabs in the enclosure, being sure to match up the arrows on both the drive and in the enclosure. Insert the
camera mechanism into the enclosure until it snaps into place.

fitting in its place and re-attach the top cover.
b. Route approximately 12 in. (305 mm) of cables through the strain relief fitting. Tighten the two (2)
strain relief fitting screws to compress the cables. Do not overtighten the screws and crush the
cables.
4. If cables are channeled through flexible cable:
a. Route approximately 12 in. (305 mm) of conduit cables through the conduit fitting.
b. Insert the end of the flexible conduit pipe into the conduit fitting and tighten the clamp screw.
Continue with the section on Cable Connections.
Optional Independent Support
If it is necessary to provide independent support for the SurveyorVFT fixed dome other than ceiling material,
order the optional In-Ceiling Mount Model Kit, model SVFT-IC-MKT. It consists of a pre-assembled set of
mounting rails and folding ring. Refer to Figure 3A.
1. With the 7-3/8-inch (187 mm) diameter hole cut in the ceiling tile and the tile replaced in the ceiling, push
the folded assembly up through the hole and unfold.
2. Position the assembly squarely over the hole and fasten the caddy rail clips to the existing frame.
Remove the adjacent tiles to access the clips.
3. Adjust the position of the caddy rail clips along the frame to obtain the best “X” position.
4. Slide the assembly along the caddy rails to obtain the best concentric “Y” position. Tighten the horizontal
adjustment screws to secure the position.
5. With the ring concentric with the hole, slide the ring vertically along the support slots to obtain the best
flush fit in the ceiling. The ring should be firmly seated against the tile without warping the tile. Refer to
Figure 3B.

Switch 4 – BLC (ON or OFF). ALC setting is for external autoiris and ELC setting is for internal autoiris. The
day/night camera includes a switch to select having the day/night feature turned ON or OFF. If day/night is
turned ON, at a low light level the camera changes to monochrome mode and the resolution and sensitivity
increase. Refer to Figures 5 and 6 for the location and setting of the switches. See Table 3 for camera and
lens specifications.
There are two potentiometers on the camera. VR1 on the back board is for V-phase adjustment; VR1 on the
top board is for autoiris adjustment. Refer to Figure 5.
Camera Synchronization
If there is more than one unit in a system, the cameras have to be synchronized to ensure there is no roll of
video. If the camera will be used in a line lock video application, the camera interface board is already set in
line lock mode by default. Camera synchronization is DIP switch selectable, line locked or internal. The use of
line-locking synchronization using a V-phase potentiometer (pot) is typically included in video equipment
requiring external video synchronization. As an example, equipment like a video switcher unit uses the
camera’s line lock to reduce “video jump” on its monitor during camera switching. The V-phase pot allows
video to power line phase adjustment up to 180°. If more than 180° of adjustment is required, swap the lines
attached to the 24 VAC terminal block connector. Be sure that the selector DIP switch is set to position “LL”.
Note that the performance of the camera’s line lock depends on the quality of the power source. If the camera
experiences roll or jitter due to the quality of the power source, then it is best to set the camera to internal
“crystal” mode. This is done by setting the selector switch to “INT.”
The adjustment for the line lock V-phase (VR1) is on the bottom board of the camera.
Autoiris Adjustments
On autoiris lenses, iris adjustment may be required if the picture appears dark or grainy or has poor color. To
obtain the sharpest picture possible, the iris adjustment should be made from a “full bright” setting down to an
acceptable video level. This assures that the internal AGC of the camera is not operational. There is a
potentiometer to adjust the DC level for autoiris; potentiometer VR1 is on the camera front board. Refer to
Figure 5. Use a small jeweler’s screwdriver to make adjustments. Turning the potentiometer opens and
closes the iris to regulate light extremes. Turning the potentiometer clockwise opens the iris wider, allowing
more light. Autoiris control is DIP switch selectable.

Reference
Coaxial cables used to route video signals to and from the unit must meet the video recommendations in this section.
Caution: Careful selection of the proper cable is essential to obtain the best performance from this
equipment. Vicon assumes no responsibility for poor performance when cables other than those
recommended are installed. In all cases, coaxial cable impedance should be 75 ohms.
Materials
Use only cable with a pure copper center conductor. Do not use cable with either a copper-plated steel or an aluminum
center conductor because these do not transfer signals effectively in the frequency range used in CCTV networks. A
center conductor with low DC resistance is required for effective CCTV operation. Solid-core bare copper conductor is
best suited to video applications, except where flexing occurs. If the coaxial cable will be subjected to flexing during
normal use, select a cable with a stranded center conductor. The preferred dielectric material is cellular (foam)
polyethylene. It has better electrical characteristics than solid polyethylene, but is more vulnerable to moisture. Therefore,
use only solid polyethylene dielectric cable with a heavy exterior insulation in applications subject to moisture. The shield
must be copper braid providing 95% or better coverage.
Cable Types
The most commonly used cable types are RG-59/U and RG-11/U. Each is actually a family of cables with widely varying
electrical characteristics, some of which are not suitable for CCTV applications. Choose a cable type by referring to the
characteristics and maximum distances listed below. The maximum distance for best picture refers to the distance
between the camera and the unit The characteristics of the cables in this table should be used as a guideline when cables
other than Belden are used. Materials and construction must follow the guidelines above. Note that “BC” refers to bare
copper and “TC” refers to tinned copper.

Twisted-Pair Cable
Caution: Careful selection of the proper cable is essential to obtain the best performance from this
equipment. Vicon assumes no responsibility for poor performance when cables other than
those recommended are installed.
Materials
Use a pure copper stranded or solid conductor with or without a tin plating to obtain a low DC resistance. Do not use cable
with either steel or aluminum stranded conductor because these do not transfer signals effectively for long distances. The
preferred insulation is Polyvinyl chloride (PVC). It has better electrical characteristics than polyethylene and resists flames,
sunlight and most solvents, but is more vulnerable to moisture.
Cable Types
The most commonly used cable types are point-to-point unshielded twisted pair wire, stranded or solid, unjacketed,
24 gauge or thicker. They can be category 2, 3, 4, or 5. The video signal may co-exist in the same wire bundle as other
video, telephone, data, control signals or low-voltage power. It is also acceptable to run the signal adjacent to fluorescent
lights or other power sources (in accordance with National Electrical Code, local and other safety requirements). Make
sure the pair of wires carrying the video signal is sent as a twisted pair (the blue-white/white-blue wires twisted together as
a pair), not a “split pair” (blue-white conductor, part of one pair/orange-white conductor, part of another pair).
Choose a Belden or equivalent cable type by referring to the characteristics and maximum distances listed below. The
characteristics of the cables in the Tables should be used as a guideline when cables other than Belden are used.
Materials and construction must follow the guidelines above.
Wire resistance may be measured with an ohmmeter by shorting the two conductors together at the far end and
measuring the loop-resistance out and back. Compare your readings to the following chart.

Normal Use excludes prolonged use of lens and pan-and-tilt motors, gear heads, and gears due to continuous
use of “autopan” or “tour” modes of operation. Such continuous operation is outside the scope of this warranty.
Date of retail purchase is the date original end-user takes possession of the equipment, or, at the sole discretion of the
Company, the date the equipment first becomes operational by the original end-user.
The sole remedy under this Warranty is that defective equipment be repaired or (at the Company’s option) replaced, at
Company repair centers, provided the equipment has been authorized for return by the Company, and the return shipment
is prepaid in accordance with policy.
The Company will not be obligated to repair or replace equipment showing abuse or damage, or to parts which in the
judgment of the Company are not defective, or any equipment which may have been tampered with, altered, misused, or
been subject to unauthorized repair.
Software supplied either separately or in hardware is furnished on an “As Is” basis. Vicon does not warrant that
such software shall be error (bug) free. Software support via telephone, if provided at no cost, may be
discontinued at any time without notice at Vicon’s sole discretion. Vicon reserves the right to make changes to
its software in any of its products at any time and without notice.
This Warranty is in lieu of all other conditions and warranties express or implied as to the Goods, including any
warranty of merchantability or fitness and the remedy specified in this Warranty is in lieu of all other remedies
available to the Purchaser.
No one is authorized to assume any liability on behalf of the Company, or impose any obligations on it in connection with
the sale of any Goods, other than that which is specified above. In no event will the Company be liable for indirect, special,
incidental, consequential, or other damages, whether arising from interrupted equipment operation, loss of data,
replacement of equipment or software, costs or repairs undertaken by the Purchaser, or other causes.
This warranty applies to all sales made by the Company or its dealers and shall be governed by the laws of New York
State without regard to its conflict of laws principles. This Warranty shall be enforceable against the Company only in the
courts located in the State of New York.
The form of this Warranty is effective August 2, 2004.
THE TERMS OF THIS WARRANTY APPLY ONLY TO SALES MADE WHILE THIS WARRANTY IS IN EFFECT. THIS
WARRANTY SHALL BE OF NO EFFECT IF AT THE TIME OF SALE A DIFFERENT WARRANTY IS POSTED ON THE
COMPANY’S WEBSITE, WWW.VICON-CCTV.COM. IN THAT EVENT, THE TERMS OF THE POSTED WARRANTY
SHALL APPLY EXCLUSIVELY.
