I. General
The new IL-380 series camera features a high performance, mid-resolution
1/3" color CCD processor and built-in vari-focal lens, which provides excellent
picture quality, flexibility and cost savings. A mounting bracket is included with every
IL series camera making it one of the most complete and easy to install camera
packages on the market.
II. Precautions
• Do not expose the camera to humidity and dust. If the camera is mounted outdoor,
a camera housing is required.
• Do not disassemble it or place it on an unstable base.
• Do not touch the surface of CCD sensor by hand directly. Use a soft cloth to
remove the dirt from the camera body. Use lens tissue or a cotton tipped applicator
and ethanol to clean the camera lens and CCD sensor.
• Never face the camera toward the sun.
• Use proper power source otherwise the camera will not function correctly.
III. Installation Instructions
1. Connect the video output of the camera to a color monitor or other video device
through a 75 ohm type coaxial cable with BNC female connector at camera end.
2. Plug the power cord to the outlet. Power indicator LED should light if the power
source is properly connected.
3. Remove the lens cover cap from the top of the camera for adjusting the vari-focal
lens.
4. Once the image appears on the monitor, adjust the focus and diaphragm of the
lens to obtain the best picture.

adjustment as following:
i. Set the focus ring of the lens to infinity position.

IV. Using Special Features
Lens Adjustment
You may adjust the focus and zoom of the lens to bring the object in focus.
This lens has two focal distances. The change of Tele/Wide can be done with
zooming. In case you want to make focus at an optional between Tele/Wide you
must re-adjust focusing once again.
Back Light Compensation
When BLC is turned on, the AGC, ES and IRIS operating point is determined by
averaging over the center area instead of entire field-of-view, so that a dimly-lit
foreground object at center area can be clearly distinguished from brightly-lit
backgrounds.
BLC should not be used unless it is needed to compensate for back-light.
