PRECAUTIONS

Operating

• Before using, check power supply and video output connection.

• Power supplied without voltage stabilization or the voltage maintained at 24V±10VAC or
12V±10VDC may cause damage.

• If any abnormal condition or malfunction is observed while operating the camera, stop using it
immediately and call your local dealer.

Handling

• Do not disassemble the camera and never touch parts inside the camera.

• To avoid possible damage, do not drop the camera or subject it to shocks or vibrations.

• When attaching or removing the lens, handle with care so that moisture and dust do not enter
the camera.

• Do not shoot any source of bright light. If the object contains very bright areas, bright vertical
or horizontal lines may appear on the screen. This is called “smear,” a phenomenon which
often occurs with solid-state pickups and is not a malfunction.

Cleaning

• Turn the power off and wipe off the dirt with a dry soft cloth. If the camera is extremely dirty,
use furniture cleaning tissue.

• Do not use alcohols, petroleum distillates, liquid cleaners or sprays.

REV. A 5HCMU001002

06/24/04

PRECAUTIONS, CONTINUED

Installation and storage

• Do not point the camera at the sun. This could damage the camera whether it is operating or
not.

• Do not install the camera where the temperature could exceed the allowable range.

• Ambient temperature should be less than 40°C for long-term continuous operation.

• Avoid installing in humid or dusty places.

• Avoid installing in places where there is radiation. This could damage the CCD and other
components and cause malfunction.

• Avoid installing in places where there are strong magnetic fields or electrical signals.

• Avoid installing in places where the camera would be subject to strong vibrations.

• Never expose the camera to rain or water.

Daily Check

• Make daily checks for proper operation for surveillance use. In order to maintain normal
operation, the output of the camera should be checked daily to ensure a clear and focused
picture.

Field Installation

• This installation should be made by a qualified service person and should conform to all local
codes.

• High quality image is obtained by digital signal processing with optimization of control program
and image correction algorithm.

Backlight Compensation

• When strong light enters the scene background, such as from a spotlight or window, back light
compensation function automatically adjust the video level to preserve visibility in important
sections of the image.

signal.

Power Connection

The power connection will accept power from either
a 12 volt DC source or a 24 volt AC source.
The 12 volt DC connection is polarity sensitive.
If connected incorrectly, the camera will not work.
The left terminal is for the positive connection and
the center terminal is the negative connection.

When using a 24 volt AC source, the first and second
terminals are used. Polarity selection is not required.

The third, or right, terminal is for a ground connection.
This terminal is seldom used in typical installations.
It may be required when the camera is installed in an
oxygen-rich environment or other explosive
environments. These environments may be found in
medical or industrial applications. Check local codes
if this issue is in question.

• The menus are superimposed on the image
displayed on the screen. The commands can
open other menus, toggle options, or change
variable parameters.

• The camera settings and adjustments can be
changed to accommodate usage conditions.

• When connected to a monitor, convenient on­screen menus facilitate checking and changing
the settings and adjustments.

• Abrief help line is often presented on the screen
below the list of commands.

LENS INSTALLATION AND ADJUSTMENT, CONTINUED

Mounting a Lens

1. Remove the lens mount cap from the camera.

2. Attach or remove the C-mount adapter depending on the lens to be used.

3. Attach the lens to the lens mount. Secure it so that it does not become loose.

4. If the lens has an auto-iris mechanism, connect the lens cable to the lens connector.

NOTE: When removing the C-mount adapter:

• If the adapter is attached so tightly that it is difficult to
remove, use long-nosed pliers to remove it. Insert the
tips of the pliers into the holes with no threads and turn
to remove.

• A screwdriver can also be used to remove a firmly
attached adapter. Insert M3 screws into the holes so
that the screwdriver has something to grip.

LENS INSTALLATION AND ADJUSTMENT

ADJUSTING AUTO-IRIS LENSES

Connect the camera to a power source and monitor, then adjust the auto-iris lens.

1. Set AGC mode to OFF.

2. When using a video-type lens, adjust the level on the lens to produce minimum smear and
optimum pictures.

3. Set AGC mode to 32dB. It is recommended that the AGC be used in the 32dB mode after
adjusting the video level.

Backfocus Adjustment

When a lens is mounted, adjustment of the backfocus may be required.
Adjust with the lens focus ring when the correct focus cannot be
obtained. (Refer to the table on the next page.) An ND filter may be
used to open the iris of the auto iris lens when adjusting the backfocus.

LENS INSTALLATION AND ADJUSTMENT

Backfocus Adjustment With A
Fixed-Focus Lens

Backfocus Adjustment With A
Zoom Lens

1. Fully open the aperture and set the focus ring
to ∞ (infinity). If using an auto-iris lens, shoot a
comparatively dark object so that the aperture
is fully open.

2. Loosen the two backfocus screws with a hex
wrench and turn the lens mount to focus.

3. After adjusting the backfocus, tighten the
backfocus screw.

1. Fully open the aperture and set the lens to the
maximum telephoto position, then turn the focus
ring to focus. If using an auto-iris lens, shoot a
comparatively dark object so that the aperture is
fully open.

2. Set the lens to its maximum wide-angle position.

3. Loosen the two backfocus screws with a hex
wrench and turn the lens mount to focus. After
adjusting the backfocus, tighten the backfocus
screws.

3. Repeat steps 1 through 3 until the difference
between focusing position “Tele” and “Wide”
becomes smallest.

CAUTION : Forcibly turning the backfocus screw will

damage the camera.
