Welcome
This manual explains how to interface with the Spectra
®
IV IP dome system using a standard Web browser.
The IP dome system can also be used with an Endura
®
system as an Endura Enabled
™
device or a third-
party system with Pelco’s API interface. If you are using one of these systems refer to the following:
NOTES:
• Only use a cable modem router or a switch with a DHCP server when installing the Spectra IV IP
dome system on a network. Refer to the installation manual shipped with the dome system for
installation instructions.
• Do not use a hub in the network setup of the dome system.
• To secure access to the Spectra IV IP dome system, place the dome behind a firewall when it is
connected to a network.
• For optimum image quality and bandwidth efficiency, use the dome system as an Endura Enabled
device or with an approved Pelco API interface.
• If the dome system is part of an Endura system, the graphical user interface will automatically
discover the device and display it as a camera within the system manager. Refer to the
documentation for the Endura System Manager.
• For a list of compatible API interfaces go to xdn.pelco.com and register as a new user by following
the on-screen instructions.
• Network and processor bandwidth limitations may cause the video stream to pause or appear pixilated
when an increased number of Web-interface users connect to the camera. Decrease the images per
second (IPS) of the Web-interface video streams to compensate for network/processor limitations.
For detailed instructions on configuring the dome system using WS5000 Advanced System Software, refer
to Cameras in the Configuring Devices section of the Endura WS5000 Advanced System Software manual.
GETTING STARTED
You will need to install your Spectra IV IP dome system before using this manual (refer to the installation
manual supplied with the dome system). Once installed, apply power to the system. The system will
complete a configuration sequence.
