Precautions

Do not attempt to disassemble this product.

To prevent electric shock, do not remove screws or covers. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Ask a qualified service person for servicing.

Handle this product with care.

Do not abuse the product. Avoid striking, shaking, etc. The product could be damaged by improper handling or storage.

Cleaning this product body

Turn the power off when cleaning the product. Use a dry cloth to clean the product. Do not use strong abrasive detergent when cleaning the product. When the dirt is hard to remove, use a mild detergent and wipe gently. Then, wipe off the remaining detergent with a dry cloth. Otherwise, it may cause discoloration. When using a chemical cloth for cleaning, read the caution provided with the chemical cloth product.

Do not expose this product to rain or moisture, or try to operate it in wet areas.

Turn the power off immediately and ask a qualified service person for servicing. Moisture can damage the product, and also create the danger of electric shock.

Use this product for indoor use only.

Do not expose the product to direct sunlight for hours and do not install the product near a heater or an air conditioner. Otherwise, it may cause deformation, discoloration and malfunction. Keep the product away from water.

Do not drop anything inside this product.

Dropping a metal part or other materials inside the product could permanently damage the product.

Do not operate this product beyond the specified temperature, humidity, or power source ratings.

Use the product under conditions where temperature is between 0°C and +40°C {32°F and 104°F}, and humidity is below 90 %. The input power resource is 12 V DC.

Clean the faceplate with care.

Do not clean the faceplate with strong or abrasive detergents. Use lens tissue or a cotton tipped applicator and ethanol.

Discoloration on the CCD color filter

When continuously shooting a bright light source such as a spotlight, the color filter of the CCD may have deteriorated and it may cause discoloration. Even when changing the fixed shooting direction after continuously shooting a spotlight for a certain period, the discoloration may remain.

Do not aim the camera head at strong light sources.

A light source such as a spot light causes a blooming (light bleeding) or a smear (vertical lines).

Installing place

Contact your dealer for assistance if you are unsure of an appropriate place in your particular environment. Make sure that the installation area is strong enough to hold the product, such as a concrete ceiling. When the installation area is not strong enough, reinforce and strengthen it.

Avoid installing in the following locations.

• Locations where it may get wet from rain or water splash

• Locations where a chemical agent is used such as a swimming pool (not only outdoor)

• Locations subject to steam and oil smoke such as a kitchen

• Locations near flammable gas or vapor

• Locations where radiation or x-ray emissions are produced

• Locations subject to strong magnetic field or radio waves

• Locations where corrosive gas is produced

• Locations where it may be damaged by briny air such as seashores

• Locations where the temperature is not between 0°C and +40°C {32°F and 104°F}.

• Locations subject to vibrations (the product is not designed for on-vehicle use.)

• Locations subject to condensation as the result of severe changes in temperature

Attach the camera cable to the camera mounting base.

x Turn a C-mount lens clockwise to engage the lens with

the lens mount section.

■ How to mount lens

Important:

• Be sure to turn off the power of the CCU before mounting a lens.

• A lens whose projection length of the lens mount section is 4 mm or less shall be used.

• The recommended lens aperture ranges from F2.2 to F16. Selection of less than F2.2 of the lens aperture may result in image blurring.

• When a zoom lens is used, focus adjustment method varies with the lens. For further information, refer to the operating instructions for the lens.

• When the lens is removed, be sure to put the cap on the lens mount section of the camera head.

z Remove the lens cap from the lens mount section of the

camera head.

C-mount: less than 4 mm {5/32"}

Important:

• Check to see whether the surface of the optical filter is clean before mounting a lens. If the surface is dirty, use a blower brush for general camera to remove dust.
