This product is 3CCD color camera with digital video output.
1. CAUTIONS ON USE AND INSTALLATION
Handling the unit.
•
Do not drop, jolt, or vibrate, as this may result in
damage to the unit. This may cause problems.
Treat the camera cables carefully to prevent cable
problems, such as breaks in the cable and loose
connections.
Install the camera in a location free from noise.
•
If the camera or the cables are located near power
utility lines or a TV, etc. undesirable noise may
appear on the screen. In such a case, try to change
the location of the camera or the cable wiring.
Operating ambient temperature and humidity.
•
Do not use the camera in places where temperature and humidity exceed the specifications. Picture quality will deteriolate and internal parts may
be damaged.
Be particularly careful when using in places exposed to direct sunlight. When shooting in hot
places, depending on the conditions of the object
and the camera (for example when the gain is increased), noise in the form of vertical strips or
white dots may occur. This is not a malfunction.
When not using the camera for extended peri-
•
ods of time.
Switch the control unit off and disconnect the
power supply.
Avoid using or storing the camera in the fol-
•
lowing places:
Places filled with highly flammable gas.
Places near gasoline, benzene, or paint thinner.
Places subject to strong vibration.
Places containing chemicals (such as pesticides),
rubber or vinyl products for extended periods of
time.
The following descriptions are for that a camera head
“IK-TF9H” connected to this camera control unit.
Do not shoot intense light.
•
If there is an intense light at a location on the
screen such as a spot light, a blooming and smearing may occur. When intense light enters, vertical
stripes may appear on the screen. This is not a
malfunction. Ghosts may occur when there is an
intense light near the object. In this case, change
the shooting angle.
Moire
•
A moire pattern is an interference pattern generated when two repetitive line patterns overlap. This
is not a malfunction. Eliminating the repetitive line
patterns, or aligning the two patterns, will eliminate the moire.
Handling of the camera head and protection
•
cap.
Keep the camera head and protection cap away
from as they may pose a choking hazard. The protection cap protects the image sensing plane when
the lens is removed from the camera head, do not
discard.
When cleaning the camera.
•
Unplug the power source before cleaning. Clean
with a soft dry cloth only. Do not use chemicals or
chemically treated cloths. Chemicals may damage
coatings and printed letters. When cleaning the
lens, use lens cleaning paper.
Installation without a tripod.
•
Before installing the camera head, make sure that
the location can withstand the total weight of the
camera head.
If this is not the case, reinforce the area to prevent the unit from dropping, which may result in
damage to the unit or personal injury.

4. 2 Cautions on Connection
• Only use optional camera head model # IK-TF9H with this camera controller.
The use of another head may cause damage to the control unit and camera head.
• When connecting the camera cables, be sure to turn off the camera control unit and any other equipment
connected to it.
•For DC power supply connecting to DC IN 12V terminal, use UL listed and/or CSA approved ungrounded
type AC adaptor with the specifications described below.
Power supply voltage : 12V DC±10%
Current rating : More than 830mA, Less than2.5A
Ripple voltage : Less than 50mV(p–p)
Connector : HR10A–7P–4S by HIROSE electronics Co. Ltd
Pins 1, 2 : 12V
Pins 3, 4 : GND
• If the securing screw on the connector of the camera cable loosens, noise may appear on the screen.
Be sure to tighten the connector completely.
•Use the standard cable for Camera Link.
