BASIC DESCRIPTION
CX Series cameras utilize a high-sensitivity CCD camera with auto iris varifocal lens in a
compact weatherproof housing. Four versions are available:
1) Model CX-EV310A-2 (B/W with 2.8-10mm auto iris varifocal lens)
2) Model CX-NV310A-2 (Color with 2.8-10mm auto iris varifocal lens)
3) Model CXH-NV310A-2 (Hi-Res Color with 2.8-10mm auto iris varifocal lens)
4) Model DXH-NV39A (Hi-Res Color Day/Night with 3-9mm A/I varifocal lens)
MAJOR FEATURES
• Compact and stylish design for use in commercial or residential applications
• Anodized aluminum weather-proof housing with removable sunshield
• Auto-iris varifocals compensate for changing light conditions and provide maximum
depth of field
• Wide Operating Temperature Range for use in any climate
• Adjustable swivel mount for ceiling or wall installations
• Phase adjustment for synchronizing multiple cameras in 24VAC systems
• 12VDC/24VAC auto-sensing power input
• Optional Day/Night Model with retractable IR cut filter (DXH112-V39A).
WIRING CONNECTIONS
WARNING: Make wiring connections only after it has been determined that power has
been disconnected. Use either a 12VDC regulated power supply (C12DCR-500
recommended) or a 24VAC power supply (C24AC recommended). For 12VDC power
input, determine the polarity prior to connection to the camera. Failure to do so could
lead to permanent damage to the device and void the warranty.
NOTE: A BNC connector (included) can be crimped to the WHITE and GREEN video
signal wires using the supplied butt connectors.

MOUNTING THE CAMERA
The camera base has two mounting holes for #8 screws (#8 screws and anchors are
supplied). To mount the camera, loosen the swivel set screw with the 1/8” Allen
wrench (supplied) and mount the base in the desired location. The mounting base
can be removed completely from the bracket if necessary.
ADJUSTING CAMERA ORIENTATION
Loosen the swivel set screw and rear end cap set screw with supplied Allen keys.
Orient the camera and tighten both set screws. Be sure to tighten the rear end cap
set screw to maintain a water-tight seal.
LENS ADJUSTMENT
1) Completely loosen the two Phillips screws on the rear endcap that hold the
housing cover in place, and remove the cover.
2) Loosen the focus and zoom adjustment locking screws.
3) Connect the camera to power and a monitor to adjust focal length and focus
for best image.
4) Tighten focus and zoom locking screws. Recheck image after tightening.
5) Replace cover carefully in order to prevent damage to the camera components.
6) Make sure cover is tight against back plate and tighten two Phillips screws on
housing with equal force.

NOTES
A) Do not remove desiccant pack! There is a desiccant pack attached to
the housing base under the board camera that is designed to absorb any
moisture trapped inside the housing during adjustment. To avoid excessive
moisture buildup, it is recommended that the camera not be installed in rainy
or excessively damp conditions. It is also advisable to limit the number of times
the housing cover is removed. The desiccant pack can be replaced if
condensation develops inside the housing.
B) If the housing cover is opened frequently or if the gasket dries out, apply a light
coat of good quality silicone-based grease to the gasket to maintain a
watertight seal.
C) Make sure that the end of the cable, including BNC connector and power
connection, are not exposed to the elements. Exposed cable may cause a
power short.
