Frequently Asked Questions - PT-A-604 Havis

What is the Havis PT-A-604 used for?

The PT-A-604 is a camera accessory kit designed for a prisoner transport video system. It includes interior and exterior cameras, a monitor, and mounting hardware to provide surveillance of the vehicle's rear compartment.

Does the PT-A-604 include a monitor?

Yes, the kit includes a Voyager 7-inch LCD monitor with two harnesses, as well as a Panavise monitor mount bracket.

How many cameras are included in the PT-A-604 kit?

The PT-A-604 kit includes three interior/exterior color cameras (from the parts list: 3 cameras for PT-A-604). Additionally, the hardware list specifies 6 camera mounting brackets for PT-A-604, but that may include spares.

What tools are required for installation?

You will need powered drills (3/8" & 1/2"), wire crimping tool, 4 1/2" hole saw or jig saw, standard socket set, drill bit set, ratcheting wrench, and wire stripping tool.

How do I connect the camera cables?

Route the camera cable through the drilled hole, attach the camera to the mounting bracket, and plug the cable into the camera assembly. Then connect the 25 ft. extension cables to the monitor harness following the wiring diagram.

Why are the night vision LEDs not working properly?

The night vision LEDs reflect off the ceiling-mounted vandal-proof guard. Havis recommends keeping the rear compartment dome lights ON when cameras are in use to ensure proper visibility.

How do I access the DVR menu?

You can access the DVR menu using the included remote and mouse. If using a 4-camera system, temporarily connect the DVR's AV out to one of the monitor's camera inputs to view the menu.

What are the wire colors for camera triggers?

The system uses a power/trigger harness: Red (12V+), Black (GND), Blue (Camera Trigger 1), Brown (Trigger 2), Green (Trigger 3), Orange (Trigger 4), White (Audio Trigger), Yellow (Split Trigger).

Determine mounting location for camera and mark hole. Be sure to make sure the polycarbonate dome cover fits properly before drilling 4 1/2 " hole. Take caution not to drill into any wires.

Once hole is drilled, deburr the metal. Reach through the opening and pull the camera cable through the opening.

Attach camera to the Camera mounting bracket using two (2) 10-32 x 1/2" bolts and 10-32 keps nuts. Attach the bracket to the cover with two (2) 10-32 flat head screws and keps nuts.

Wire system according to manufacture recommendations included within video system component boxes and the wire diagram supplied in this instruction

Plug camera cable into one of the camera assemblies. Turn on system. Position the camera to obtain optimal visibility within the compartment. You will need two people for this step.

Mark holes on the ceiling and pre-drill with 1/8" drill bit. Reposition camera assembly and mount using #10 x 3/4" Flat head sheet metal screws.

Repeat steps for remaining cameras.

Note: Cameras come standard with night vision LED lighting. However the night vision LED does not work correctly because of reflection off of the ceiling mounted vandal proof guard. Using rear dome lights when cameras are in use is always recommended to solve this issue.

Mount external camera in desired location. If being used for viewing when backing up install camera on backside of roof as close to center as possible. The "U" shape bracket included with camera should work in most applications.

View of Voyager monitor with DVR menu. Use DVR instructions along with remote and mouse for changing DVR settings.

Note 2:

If you have a four (4) camera system (Without optional GSM70006 monitor) the DVR menu settings are only able to be viewed and programmed by following the above cable routing because the Voyager monitor only has four (4) video inputs.

Using one of the camera inputs to the monitor, temporarily connect the AV out of the DVR to a monitor camera input.

You will only be able to view DVR menu when AV out is temporarily connected to monitor camera input.

Plug camera cable back into monitor when done programing.

This method of changing settings has proved to be very successful in eliminating video tampering.

DVR Menu viewing Method 2

With optional GSM70006 monitor

Used for viewing menu and reprogramming the DVR standard default settings instead of using Voyager monitor shown in method 1.

It is recommended to use this for programing only and to unplug / remove from vehicle when done.
