Outdoor Pendant
The outdoor pendant model mounts on a Vicon mount or a 1.5-in. vertical pipe with an appropriate coupling.
e area around the
inte
The outdoor version includes a sunshield, heater and weather protection. Be sure th
selected location is clear of obstacles (such as steel beams, headers, pipes, electrical wiring, etc.) that would
rfere with mounting. Video, sync, and power cables must be routed to the location.
Note: The standard 1.5-inch pipe referred to in this manual has the actual dimensions of: outside diameter:
1.9 in. (48.3 mm); inside diameter: 1.61 in. (40.9 mm); wall thickness: 0.145 in. (3.37 mm) minimum
(ANSI standard grade thickness).
1. Install the mount in accordance with the installation manual included with the mount or prepare the
vertical 1.5-in. NPT pipe.
2. Feed all necessary cables through the back of the mount or out the end of the 1.5-in. NPT pipe, 15 in.
(381 mm) in length.
3. Apply the provided anti-seize lubricant to the first 2-3 unpainted threads of the housing.
4. Lift the sunshield/housing up to the mount and feed the cables through its top opening.
5. Place the housing onto the 1.5-in. pipe and screw clockwise, looking up at the housing. When it becomes
snug, turn it an additional quarter-turn.
6. Verify that each cable drops from the pipe opening at least 15 in. (381 mm) in length.
7. Lift the SurveyorVFT camera mechanism up to the housing/sunshield and attach the housing’s safety
cord clip to the camera mechanism’s tab. Allow the camera mechanism to hang from the housing. Refer
to Figure 2.
8. Route each cable from the inside top of the housing down over to its mating connector on the camera PC
board. Add 1 in. (25 mm) of extra length to each cable for termination (if not previously terminated) and
cut them. The approximate length of each cable should be 14 - 15 in. (356 - 381 mm).
Continue with the section on Cable Connections.
Cable Connections
Both power and video connections are made to the integral printed circuit board (PC board) on the camera
mechanism. The PC board provides a board-mounted BNC connector for coaxial or a screw terminal for
twisted pair video and a removable two-position screw terminal connector for camera power. Refer to Figure
4 when performing these connections. Refer to Cable Recommendations in the Reference section. There is
also a provision for adjusting the focus with the auxiliary video output port provided on the underside of the
camera mechanism. This adjustment should be performed during installation. Refer to Figure 6.
Coaxial Video Cable
Attach the male BNC connector on the video cable to the mating BNC connector on the PC board.
Twisted-Pair Video Cable
For the models using the twisted-pair video connection, use the twisted-pair video wire connector as shown in
Figure 4. Strip off approximately 0.25 in. (6 mm) of insulation from each individual wire. Attach each wire to
the screw terminal on the PC board. Pin 1 is for Video and Pin 2 is Ground; Pin 3 is Not Used. Refer to Figure
4. Refer to the instructions supplied with the receiver for those connections.
