specified in IEEE Std 142. The Contractor shall deliver a report
describing results of functional tests, diagnostics, and calibrations
including written certification to the Government that the installed
complete system has been calibrated, tested, and is ready to begin
performance verification testing. The report shall also include a copy of
the approved performance verification test procedure. In addition, the
Contractor shall make a master video tape recording showing typical day and
night views of each camera in the system and shall deliver the tape with
the report. Note any objects in the field of view that might produce
highlights that could cause camera blinding. Note any objects in the field
of view or anomalies in the terrain which may cause blind spots. Note if a
camera cannot be aimed to cover the zone and exclude the rising or setting

lights or vehicle headlights cause blooming or picture degradation. If any
of the above conditions or other conditions exist that cause picture
degradation or interfere with the camera field of view, the Contractor
shall inform the Contracting Officer. The tape shall be recorded using the

part of the CCTV system, the Contractor shall provide the tape in Video
Home System (VHS) format. The Contractor shall provide the Government with
the original tape as part of the documentation of the system and shall
submit a letter certifying that the CCTV system is ready for performance
verification testing. The field testing shall as a minimum include:
