Operating or storage location
Operating or storing the camera in the
following locations may cause damage to
the camera:
• Extremely hot or cold places (Operating
temperature: 0 °C to 40 °C
[32°F to 104°F])
• Exposed in direct sunlight for a long time,
or close to heating equipment (e.g., near
heaters)
• Close to sources of strong magnetism
• Close to sources of powerful
electromagnetic radiation, such as radios
or TV transmitters
• Locations subject to vibration or shock
Ventilation
To prevent heat buildup, do not block air
circulation around the camera.
Transportation
When transporting the camera, repack it as
originally packed at the factory or in
materials equal in quality.
Cleaning the main unit
• When the body of the camera is dirty,
clean it with a soft cloth that is soaked with
a diluted neutral detergent and tightly
wrung. Then finish with a dry cloth.
• Do not use any type of solvents, which
may damage the finish.
• When you use a chemical cloth, follow its
instructions.
• Do not sprinkle volatile matter such as
pesticide over your camera nor allow
rubber or vinyl to come in contact with the
camera for a long period of time. Doing so
may damage the finish.
Note on laser beams
Laser beams may damage the CMOS
image sensors. If you shoot a scene that
includes a laser beam, be careful not to let
a laser beam become directed into the
image sensors of the camera.
Getting Started
Maintenance
The camera mechanism may cause abnormal
noise due to wear and lubrication loss after a

Phenomena Specific
to CMOS Image
Sensors
The following phenomena that may appear
in images are specific to CMOS
(Complementary Metal Oxide
Semiconductor) image sensors. They do not
indicate malfunctions.
White flecks
Although the CMOS image sensors are
produced with high-precision technologies,
fine white flecks may be generated on the
screen in rare cases, caused by cosmic rays,
etc. This is related to the principle of CMOS
image sensors and is not a malfunction.
White flecks tend to be seen particularly in
the following cases:
• during operation at a high environmental
temperature
• when you have raised the gain (sensitivity)
This phenomena may be improved by
turning the camera off and then on again.
Aliasing
When fine patterns, stripes, or lines are shot,
they may appear jagged or flicker.
36 Phenomena Specific to CMOS Image Sensors
B Overview
Features
• The 1/2.8 type Exmor CMOS camera
(utilising approximately 2 million valid
pixels) allows for high-definition shooting
with superior picture quality.
• Adopts 20 times optical magnification,
F1.6 high power and luminous zoom lens.
• By adopting its wide and dynamic range
functions, you can see the optimised
shooting image which incorporates bright
and dark subjects at the same time.
• The camera has a variety of HD video
format choices and digital and analogue
interface connectors. The EVI-H100S
camera has HD-SDI (High DefinitionSerial Digital Interface) output, suitable
for long-distance transmission. The EVIH100V camera has a DVI-I (VIDEO
OUT) connector supporting both digital
and analogue output.
• The camera can be used for NTSC and
PAL output in letter box size
(EVI-H100S).
• Adopts the industry standard RS-232C
interface of VISCA camera protocol in
external communication. It is possible to
operate from long distances by using both
RS-232C and RS-422.
• You can install the camera on ceilings due
to the functions of high-speed and wide
range pan/tilt action and vertical image
flip.
• You can store up to 6 kinds of camera
direction and camera status into the
camera.

B Installation and Connection
Installing the
Camera
Installing the Camera on a
Desk
Place the camera on a flat surface.
If you have to place the camera on an
inclined surface, make sure that the
inclination is less than ±15 degrees to
guarantee pan/tilt performance, and take
measures to prevent it from falling.
Notes
• Do not grasp the camera head when
carrying the camera.
• Do not turn the camera head by hand.
Doing so may result in a camera
malfunction.
• If you turn the camera head by hand
without DC 12 V connection, the lamps on
the front may light. This is not a
malfunction.
Attaching the Camera to a
Tripod
Attach a tripod to the screw hole used for
attaching a tripod on the bottom of the
camera.
The tripod must be set up on a flat surface
and its screws tightened firmly by hand.
Use a tripod with screws of the following
specifications.
4 = 4.3 - 5 mm
4 = 0.17 - 0.20 inches
Caution
Installation of the camera using the
tripod screws and screw holes should not
be done for installation on a ceiling or a
shelf, etc., in a high position.
Installing the unit on the
ceiling
Using the ceiling bracket, wire rope, and
retaining screws supplied, you can utilize
existing junction boxes, etc., to attach the
camera to the ceiling.
When you install the unit, always install it on
a level ceiling. If you have to install it on a
sloping or uneven ceiling, make sure that the
place where you install it is within ±15
degrees of the horizontal.
42 Installing the Camera
CAUTION
• Entrust installation to an experienced
contractor or installer when installing the
unit on ceilings or other high locations.
• When installing the unit in a high location,
be sure that the location and installation
components (excluding the supplied
accessories) are strong enough to
withstand at least 20 kg of weight, and
install the unit securely. If the components
are not strong enough, the unit may fall
and cause serious injury.
• Always install the supplied wire rope to
prevent the unit from falling.
• If you install the unit in a high location,
check periodically, at least once a year, to
ensure that the connection has not
loosened. If conditions warrant, make this
periodic check more frequently.
Before installation
After deciding the direction in which the
camera will shoot, make the required holes
for the junction box, and connecting cables.
Note
The connecting cables cannot be passed
through ceiling bracket (A). A hole for the
wiring is required in the ceiling at the back
of the unit where it is attached to the ceiling.
2 Attach the wire rope to the junction
box in the ceiling.
Use a screw hole and a screw (not
supplied) in the junction box to attach
the wire rope.
