Before You Begin
Unpack Everything
Check that the items received match those listed on the
order form and packing slip. The L-Series packing box
should include, in addition to this User Guide:

If any parts are missing or damaged, contact the dealer you
purchased the camera from or call Honeywell Customer
Service (see Contact Information on the back of this
manual).
Note You will also require a Phillips screwdriver to
complete the installation.
Please read this guide carefully
before you install the L-Series
monochrome camera.
Keep this guide for future reference.

Setting Up Your Camera
Figure 3 shows the factory set DIP switch settings.
Automatic Gain Control (AGC) is set ON.

Selecting the Lens
Fixed Lens
Set the AES/AI switch on the rear of the camera (see
Figure 3) to AES.
Vari-focal Auto Iris Lens
Vari-focal Auto Iris lenses (Direct Drive [DC] or Video Drive
[VSD]) are connected to the camera via a 4-pin square
socket located at the side of the camera. Set the AES/AI
DIP switch to AI.
To set a different exposure, see Backlight Compensation
(BLC) on page 5.
Direct Drive (DC) Lens
1. Set the VSD/DC switch on the rear of the camera to
DC. Set the AES/AI DIP switch to AI.
2. Slowly turn the IRIS LEVEL potentiometer until the
picture on the monitor is as clear as possible and is not
too bright.

Video Drive (VSD) Lens
Set the VSD/DC switch on the rear of the camera (see
Figure 3) to VSD.
Backlight Compensation (BLC)
If there is excessive light (for example, a window exists in a
scene), the camera tries to compensate by reducing the
overall exposure, resulting in the areas surrounding the
window becoming too dark. Turn the BLC switch ON to
eliminate the silhouette effect.
Automatic Gain Control (AGC)
This feature can improve picture quality when the level of
scene illumination is low. When set to OFF, the maximum
gain is 11 dB. When set to ON, the maximum gain is 30 dB.
Synchronization Selection (LL/INT)
This switch selects the synchronization mode of the
camera. When the camera is connected to an AC supply,
the Line lock (LL) mode is used to lock the camera’s frame
rate to the frequency so that each camera in the system is
triggered at the same point on the supply’s AC cycle. The
default setting is LL.
WARNING! The LL/INT switch must be set to INT
when operating from 12 VDC.

Line Lock Phase Adjustment
Potentiometer
When the camera is in Line lock mode, it is possible to
adjust the point on the AC cycle at which the camera
triggers. This feature allows for synchronization of cameras
that are connected to different phases.
The V-PHASE adjustment potentiometer allows the line
lock phase trigger point to be adjusted by 270°. Rotating
the potentiometer clockwise advances the trigger point and
turning it counterclockwise retards the trigger point. If all
cameras in a system are on the same phase then no line
lock phase adjustment should be made.

Lens Installation
Adjusting the Back Focus
The back focus adjustment is accessible at the front end of
the camera housing to adjust the back focal length or
picture focus.
The range of adjustment allows both C- and CS-mount
lenses to be used without the need for a spacer ring.

1. Loosen the setscrew with a Phillips screwdriver.
2. Adjust the focus ring to focus the picture.
3. Retighten the setscrew.

Completing the Installation
Mounting the Camera
Mounting points are provided on the top of the camera for
mounting the camera on a bracket or tripod. They are
designed to accept standard sized 1/4 x 20 mounting
screws. This bracket can be unscrewed and mounted onto
the opposite side of the camera, depending on your
application. The mounting bracket must be capable of
supporting the weight of the camera and its lens.
Note Some installation codes dictate that the mounting
bracket must be capable of supporting up to four
times the combined weight of the camera and
lens.

Unscrew 3 bracket
securing screws and
then resecure the
bracket on the other
side of the camera.

Connecting the Camera
1. Connect the VIDEO connector on the rear of the
camera to the video-in connector on your monitor.
2. Connect the camera to a power supply appropriate for
your installation.
HCM574L, HCM384L, HCM584LX, HCM404LX:
12 VDC or 24 VAC power supply
HCM585LX, HCM405LX: 230V power supply
3. Plug in the power supply. The power (PWR) LED
illuminates to show that the camera is receiving power.
If it does not illuminate, check the connections and the
power source.
