Installation
Caution
To prevent the camera from falling, make sure to attach the supplied wire
rope.
Suitable lens
The camera is equipped with 1/2type iris components. Only a 1/2type lens is
suitable. If the lens is a C-mount type, you should install the attached C-mount
adaptor first, and then install the lens.
If the lens is a CS-mount type, the protrusion behind the mounting surface
should be 5.5 mm (/ inch) or less.
Installation of an Auto Iris Lens Connector
Install the lens connector (not supplied) when using an Auto Iris Lens.
This installation should be done only by qualified service personnel or system
installers. A lens connector is not included with this camera package.
1 Cut the iris control cable at the edge of the lens connector to remove the
existing lens connector and then remove the outer cable cover as shown
in the diagram on the left.
2 Solder the lens cable to the pins of the lens connector.
Caution
When you install it into a wall or a ceiling, check that the wall or the ceiling ˎ
is strong enough to hold the weight of the camera including the mounting
bracket, and install it without fail. If not, the camera falls down and causes
a serious injury.
Also, check if the mounting is not loosened at least once a year. Make the
checking interval short according to use condition.
Performance will depend on the installation environment and the lens ˎ
itself. For details, contact your authorized Sony dealer.
Attaching the wire rope
When you install the camera on a ceiling or a high position, be sure to attach the
supplied wire rope to prevent the camera from falling.
Attach the wire rope to the screw hole on the rear of the camera, as in the
illustration.
Note
Take care not to short-circuit the power terminal or the cable with the wire rope
when you attach it.
1 Secure the wire rope to the junction box on the ceiling.
Use a screw to match the screw hole of your junction box (not supplied).
2 Secure the wire rope to the wire rope mounting screw hole on the rear of
the camera using the supplied screw.
Caution
Use the supplied screws for installation. If not, the wire rope may not function
properly.
Adjusting the Camera Coverage and Focus
