PRECAUTIONS
In case of problem
Do not use the camera if smoke or a strange odour comes from the
unit, or if it seems not to function correctly. Disconnect the power
cord immediately, and consult your dealer (or a Sanyo Authorized
Service Centre).
Do not open or modify
Do not open the cabinet, as it may be dangerous and cause damage
to the unit. For internal settings and repairs, consult your dealer (or a
Sanyo Authorized Service Centre).
Do not put objects inside the unit
Make sure that no metal objects or flammable substance get inside
the camera. If used with a foreign object inside, it could cause a fire,
short-circuits or damages.
If water or a liquid gets inside the camera, disconnect the power cord
immediately, and consult your dealer (or a Sanyo Authorized Service
Centre). Be careful to protect the camera from rain, sea water, etc.
Be careful when handling the unit
To prevent damages, do not drop the camera or subject it to strong
shock or vibration.
Install away from electric or magnetic fields
If installed close to a TV, radio transmitter, magnet, electric motor,
transformer, audio speakers the magnetic field they generate will
distort the image.
Protect from humidity and dust
To prevent damages to the camera, do not install it where there is
greasy smoke or steam, where the dampness may get too high, or
where there is a lot of dust.
Protect from high temperatures
Do not install close to stoves, or other heat generating devices, such
as spotlights, etc., or where it could be subject to direct sunlight, as
that could cause deformation, discoloration or other damages.
Be careful when installing close to the ceiling, in a kitchen or boiler
room, as the temperature may raise to high levels.
Install where the temperature range will stay between –10˚C and
50˚C. (no condensation)
Cleaning
• Dirt can be removed from the cabinet by wiping it with a soft
cloth. To remove stains, wipe with a soft cloth moistened with a
soft detergent solution and wrung dry, then wipe dry with dry soft
cloth.
• Do not use benzine, thinner or other chemical product on the
cabinet, as that may cause deformation and paint peeling. Before
using a chemical cloth, make sure to read all accompanying
instructions. Make sure that no plastic or rubber material comes in
contact with the cabinet for a long period of time, as that may
cause damage or paint peeling.

PARTS NAMES AND FUNCTIONS
1 Hood lens
2 Focus ring
The focus does not need adjustment for subjects 1 m and more
from the lens. If the subject is closer than 1 m, turn the focus ring
to adjust the focus as necessary. (See page 8.)
3 Lens
4 Lens cover
This cover will protect the lens from dust and damage.
5 12 V DC input terminal (12 V DC IN)
Connect DC connecting cord from the AC adaptor to the 12V DC
IN terminal on the base. Then, plug the AC adaptor into an AC
outlet.
WARNING:
• This AC adaptor is specially conceived for this camera. Never use
another type of AC adaptor with this camera, and do not use this
AC adaptor to power other types of cameras.
• Not for use with toys.
• Never try to disassemble or modify the AC adaptor.
6 Camera mounting screw hole (1/4"–20 UNC)
When mounting the camera to the mounting bracket, use this
installation hole.
Loosen the GND terminal screw, insert the coaxial cable into the
clamp and tighten the GND terminal screw.
9 VIDEO OUT terminal screw
Align the centre wire of the coaxial cable with the VIDEO OUT
terminal, then first tighten the cable clamp and then the VIDEO
OUT terminal screw.
• Cable type RG-6U (5C-2V)

CONNECTIONS AND INSTALLATION
Connecting the coaxial cable horizontally
1 Cut and prepare the extremity of the coaxial cable (sold separately), as illustrated.
2 Attach the coaxial cable to the base.
Loosen the VIDEO OUT terminal screw (A) and the GND terminal screw (B), then insert the
center wire of the coaxial cable in the VIDEO OUT terminal and make sure the shielding
mesh part of the cable is located into the GND cable clamper, then tighten both screws (A
and B) to attach the cable.

Connecting the coaxial cable vertically (using the vertical holder
plate)
1 Cut and prepare the extremity of the coaxial cable (sold separately), as illustrated.
2 Loosen the VIDEO OUT terminal screw and remove the GND terminal screw.
3 Insert the coaxial cable into the GND terminal clamp (a), then attach the clamp to
the supplied vertical holder plate (b) using the screw (c) from the second GND
terminal.
4 Attach the vertical holder plate to the GND terminal using the terminal screw, then
insert the centre wire of the coaxial cable into the VIDEO OUT terminal and tighten
the terminal screw.

CONNECTIONS AND INSTALLATION
Installing the BNC plug (sold separately)
To connect the camera to peripheral devices, use a coaxial cable with BNC plug.
1 Cut the extremity of the coaxial cable (sold separately), as illustrated.
• Cable type RG-6U (5C-2V), 500 m maximum.
If the type of peripheral devices connected, the type of cable used and/or the cable
length are not as specified, the image and synchronization signals may not be
transmitted correctly.
CAUTION:
Use CCTV/Video grade coaxial cable. Due to its construction, an RG-59U cable will not
transmit the signal properly when installed through conduits or through the air, and
therefore cannot be used.
2 Insert the cable through the adaptor, then turn the shielding mesh over.
3 Loosen the center wire securing screw of the plug, then install the cable in the BNC
plug, so that the center wire is threaded through the plug center opening.
Before tightening the center wire securing screw, make sure the center wire comes out
through the plug center opening.
4 Screw the adaptor onto the plug.

Multiple cameras connection
You can use multiple cameras by connecting them a camera switcher or a quad unit (sold
separately), then conducting the surveillance from one location by splitting the monitor screen to
view the image from each camera, or by switching the image from each camera on the monitor
screen. For detailed information, please refer to the installed devices instruction manuals.

• When using this unit, the supplied
clamping core must be installed on the
power cord (see Fig. 1), in order to
prevent electromagnetic interference to
the other devices connected.
