007

• Make sure you always have the unit
placed so it is level and sure to remain
stable. Never place it on stands that
could wobble, or on inclined surfaces.

..................................................................................................

008c

• Be sure to use only the AC adaptor
supplied with the unit. Also, make
sure the line voltage at the installation
matches the input voltage specified on the AC
adaptor’s body. Other AC adaptors may use a
different polarity, or be designed for a
different voltage, so their use could result in
damage, malfunction, or electric shock.

..................................................................................................

008e

• Use only the attached power-supply
cord. Also, the supplied power cord
must not be used with any other
device.

..................................................................................................

009

• Do not excessively twist or bend the
power cord, nor place heavy objects
on it. Doing so can damage the cord,
producing severed elements and short
circuits. Damaged cords are fire and shock
hazards!

..................................................................................................

011

flammable material, coins, pins); or
liquids of any kind (water, soft drinks,
etc.) to penetrate the unit.

2

013

• In households with small children, an
adult should provide supervision until
the child is capable of following all the
rules essential for the safe operation of
the unit.

..................................................................................................

014

• Protect the unit from strong impact.

(Do not drop it!)

..................................................................................................

015

• Do not force the unit’s power-supply
cord to share an outlet with an unrea­sonable number of other devices. Be
especially careful when using
extension cords—the total power used
by all devices you have connected to
the extension cord’s outlet must never
exceed the power rating (watts/
amperes) for the extension cord.
Excessive loads can cause the
insulation on the cord to heat up and
eventually melt through.

..................................................................................................

016

• Before using the unit in a foreign
country, consult with your retailer, the
nearest Roland Service Center, or an
authorized Roland distributor, as
listed on the “Information” page.

101b

• The unit and the AC adaptor should
be located so their location or position
does not interfere with their proper
ventilation.

..................................................................................................

102c

• Always grasp only the plug on the AC
adaptor cord when plugging into, or
unplugging from, an outlet or this unit.

103b

• At regular intervals, you should
unplug the AC adaptor and clean it by
using a dry cloth to wipe all dust and
other accumulations away from its
prongs. Also, disconnect the power
plug from the power outlet whenever
the unit is to remain unused for an
extended period of time. Any accumu­lation of dust between the power plug
and the power outlet can result in
poor insulation and lead to fire.

..................................................................................................

104

• Try to prevent cords and cables from
becoming entangled. Also, all cords
and cables should be placed so they
are out of the reach of children.

..................................................................................................

106

• Never climb on top of, nor place heavy
objects on the unit.

..................................................................................................

107c

AC adaptor and all cords coming from
external devices.

..................................................................................................

109b

• Before cleaning the unit, turn off the
power and unplug the AC adaptor
from the outlet.

..................................................................................................

110b

• Whenever you suspect the possibility
of lightning in your area, disconnect
the AC adaptor from the outlet.

..................................................................................................

118

IMPORTANT NOTES

291a

In addition to the items listed under “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” on page 2, please read and
observe the following:

Power Supply

301

• Do not connect this unit to same electrical
outlet that is being used by an electrical
appliance that is controlled by an inverter
(such as a refrigerator, washing machine,
microwave oven, or air conditioner), or that
contains a motor. Depending on the way in
which the electrical appliance is used, power
supply noise may cause this unit to
malfunction or may produce audible noise. If
it is not practical to use a separate electrical
outlet, connect a power supply noise filter
between this unit and the electrical outlet.

302

• The AC adaptor will begin to generate heat
after long hours of consecutive use. This is
normal, and is not a cause for concern.

307

• Before connecting this unit to other devices,
turn off the power to all units. This will help
prevent malfunctions and/or damage to
speakers or other devices.

Placement

352a

• This device may interfere with radio and
television reception. Do not use this device in
the vicinity of such receivers.

352b

• Noise may be produced if wireless communi­cations devices, such as cell phones, are
operated in the vicinity of this unit. Such
noise could occur when receiving or initiating
a call, or while conversing. Should you
experience such problems, you should
relocate such wireless devices so they are at a
greater distance from this unit, or switch
them off.

355b

• When moved from one location to another
where the temperature and/or humidity is
very different, water droplets (condensation)
may form inside the unit. Damage or
malfunction may result if you attempt to use
the unit in this condition. Therefore, before
using the unit, you must allow it to stand for
several hours, until the condensation has
completely evaporated.

Maintenance

401a

• For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a
soft, dry cloth or one that has been slightly
dampened with water. To remove stubborn
dirt, use a cloth impregnated with a mild,
non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards, be sure
to wipe the unit thoroughly with a soft, dry
cloth.

402

• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or
solvents of any kind, to avoid the possibility
of discoloration and/or deformation.

Additional Precautions

553

• Use a reasonable amount of care when using
the unit’s buttons, sliders, or other controls;
and when using its jacks and connectors.
Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.

556

• When connecting / disconnecting all cables,
grasp the connector itself—never pull on the
cable. This way you will avoid causing shorts,
or damage to the cable’s internal elements.

559a

• When you need to transport the unit, package
it in the box (including padding) that it came
in, if possible. Otherwise, you will need to use
equivalent packaging materials.

The CS-mount lens is normally used, so the C-mount lens attachment screw is
not usually necessary.

2.

CS-Mount Lens Attachment Screw

Use this to attach the included CS-mount lens to the CCD-1.

3.

Camera Mounting Holes

Used for attaching the included bracket to the CCD-1. The holes are 1/4” in
diameter, the same size as attachment screws on conventional camera tripods.
There is one hole each on the top and bottom sides. Use the one that best suits
your setup.

* If attaching the CCD-1 to a mic stand, use the mic stand adaptor included with the unit.

DC Iris Lens Adjustment Control

4.

Adjusts the lens iris. Rotate to the right (clockwise) to make the image brighter,
or to the left (counterclockwise) to make the image darker.
Differences in hue may occur when more than one CCD-1 is used. Adjust the
DC iris lens control while focusing the cameras on a white object until the tone
is uniform.This step of adjusting the iris while focusing the cameras on a white
object is also recommended when using the CCD-1 together with another type
of camera.

* Shining a strong light on the object may cause the object to be overly bright, which may turn the

screen white and prevent proper imaging. In such instances, rotate the DC iris lens adjustment
control to adjust the brightness.

* In certain situations, such as when the amount of light on the object changes suddenly, it may

take some time after adjusting the DC iris lens control for the Auto Iris function to complete
processing.
