Need help?Do you have a question about the SEON CQ Series and is the answer not in the manual?
The Seon Dome Camera CQ/CJ Series is a robust surveillance solution designed for various vehicle applications, offering both interior and forward-facing monitoring capabilities. This quick installation guide provides comprehensive instructions for setup, configuration, and maintenance.
The CQ/CJ Series cameras are primarily used for video surveillance in mobile environments. The CQ camera, equipped with infrared (IR) lamps, is ideal for interior-facing locations, providing clear video even in low-light conditions. The CJ camera, without IR, is suited for forward windshield-facing applications. Both cameras capture high-quality video, which can be recorded by a Digital Video Recorder (DVR). The cameras feature adjustable pan, tilt, and rotate positions, allowing for flexible aiming to achieve the desired line of view. A local video out port enables real-time monitoring during installation and aiming.
The installation process begins with selecting an optimal camera location. It's crucial to choose a solid surface to minimize vibration, avoid areas that may block the camera's view (such as access panels, hatches, or doors), and keep it away from heat sources. Cabling is typically run inside wall panels for a clean installation.
Connecting the camera involves attaching the camera cable to an extension cable, which then plugs into a DVR via a 2x3 Micro-Fit connector. The camera is secured to a wall or ceiling using two #10x1.25" mounting screws and rubber washers. Care must be taken during installation to avoid impacting the internal printed circuit board with screws or screwdriver bits, as this can damage the camera.
Aiming the camera is a critical step. Users must first loosen the pan, tilt, and rotate adjustment screws. The local video out port, connected to a video monitor, allows for real-time viewing of the camera's line of view while adjusting its position. Once the desired view is achieved, all adjustment screws must be tightened. The infrared LEDs on CQ cameras have a five-second lag when turning on or off.
Configuration settings can be adjusted using internal switches. These include:
Routine maintenance primarily involves cleaning the camera enclosure. Most liquid cleaners or graffiti gel can be used, but abrasive cleaners should be avoided as they can scratch the window and reduce visibility. If the camera window becomes damaged or scratched beyond use, a replacement bezel and dome assembly can be ordered from a camera distributor.
Replacing a damaged dome involves removing the locking screw with the supplied security key, turning the bezel and dome counter-clockwise to release it from the base, and then pulling it up and away. To replace, the new bezel and dome are fitted onto the base, turned clockwise until it snaps into place, and the rubber IR boot around the camera lens is firmly pressed against the inside of the dome before tightening the locking screw.
