1. Safety Instructions and Notes

• Read instructions carefully before putting the camera into operation.

• Keep the operating instructions in a safe place for later use.

• The Standard Box Camera is designed for indoor use only and it must not be installed where exposed to rain and moisture.

• Do not operate the cameras beyond their specified temperature, humidity or power ratings.

• Never open the case of the camera because there are precision parts inside. An accident may result.

• Do not put anything metallic or foreign through the vent. A fire or electric shock may result.

• Be sure to turn off the power before installing or making connection.

• Pay attention when laying the connection cable and observe that the cable is not subject to heavy loads, kinks or damage and no moisture can get in.

• Do not install the camera in places exposed to vibrations and shocks.

• Be very careful not to drop or shock the camera while carrying it.

• Do not angle the camera to the sun.

• Do not make any modification to the unit (neither to the software nor the hardware). Improper modification voids the warranty and can cause malfunctions or damages. The manufacturer accepts no liability for damages resulting from unauthorized or improper modifications to the unit.

• Some types of lenses may cause hunting, light amount drop or other problems. In such case, readjust the lenses.

• Because of the digital image device characteristics, images may look rugged at high temperatures. This does not mean the camera is in trouble.

• The warranty becomes void if repairs are attempted by unauthorized persons.

• Contact the supplier if any functional problems arise.

Cleaning:

• Do not touch the surface of the imaging device.

• Keep front and rear lens surfaces clean.

2. General Descriptions

VTC-C770WDR (VTC-C770WDR/PAL for PAL)) is a superb wide dynamic range camera which achieves 120dB max (102dB typical) dynamic range of the image by implementing PIXIM's Seawolf digital imaging system.

With Seawolf digital imaging system:

- Delivers high-resolution, crystal clear images that accurately capture every aspect of any scene

- Offers the highest resolution of 700TVL (horizontal)

- Ultra-wide dynamic range imaging accurately captures all of the critical details in a scene including highlights, shadows and everything in between without compromising image quality or color accuracy

- Enhanced low-light performance makes Seawolf the natural choices for both indoor and outdoor

cameras for all lighting conditions

With ICR mechanism:

- Enhances its sensitivity about 10x at night time

- Accepts infrared light

VTC-C770WDR

With 24VAC/12VDC dual power design:

- Offers flexibility of installation

- Ensures reliability

5. Installation and commissioning Instructions

• Make sure the power is removed before the installation.

• To apply power: First connect the low voltage (DC12V or AC24V). Then plug the AC adapter to AC outlets to avoid an

improper reset from power jitters and damage from the surge voltage when no load.

5.1. Attaching the lens

• Remove the Dust Protection cap from the lens mount

• Screw the lens onto the camera without using force

5.2. Setting the back focus lock

The back focus is the distance between the lens support on the camera and the image sensor. Optimum focus is only possible when the correct distance is set. It may be necessary to set the back focus in individual cases due to production tolerances of the lens. The iris of the lens must be open as wide as possible. (Smallest F value) to set the back focus. For lenses with automatic iris control, you will require a ND filter (gray filter) to prevent the iris from closing in bright light.

Setting for lenses with a fixed focal distance: If the focus cannot be set exactly by turning the focus ring (lens), please proceed as follows;

1. Point the camera at an object with sufficient contrast. The distance to the object should be longer than

1,000 x the focal distance.

2. Open the iris on the lens

3. Set the focus of lens so that the distance at the lens is close to infinity but not to exact infinity position.

4. Loosen Back focus Adjustment Lock: Screw one~two turns on the camera with industrial “+” driver

5. Rotate Back Focus Adjustment until the optimum focus is achieved.

6. Tighten Back focus Adjustment Lock Screw again.

7. Trim the focus precisely at lens if necessary.

Setting for lenses with a variable focal distance (zoom): If the focus changes as the focal distance changes, please proceed as follows.

1. Point the camera at an object with sufficient contrast at a distance of approximately 2 meters

2. Open the iris on the lens

3. Set the maximum focal distance (Tele) at the lens

4. Set the optimum focus with the focus ring

5. Set the smallest focal distance (wide angle)

6. Loosen Back focus Adjustment Lock. Screw one~two turns on the camera with the industrial “+” driver

7. Adjust Back Focus Adjustment until the optimum focus is achieved. Steps 3,4,5 and 7 may need to be

repeated several times to obtain the best results

8. Tighten Back focus Adjustment Lock Screw again

5.3. Installation

The camera has a 1/4” thread insert on its top and bottom side for mounting the camera to a tripod, wall or ceiling with a corresponding mount.

5.4 Commissioning

• First, connect the power supply to the power terminal on the rear panel of camera

• Second, plug the power adaptor to the main supply

• The camera is ready for operation

5.5. Power Supply Connections

The camera can work with either 24VAC or 12VDC, dual voltage power. It does NOT require the polarity-matched connection for 12VDC supply. Primary and secondary grounds are completely isolated to avoid the possible ground-loop problems. Its wide operating voltage range of 10.5V-30V for DC and 12-28.8V for AC gives extra flexibility at the installation.

6. Start up

When the camera is powered properly, it starts up by initializing the internal parameters and the filter switch mechanism. The filter switch unit repeats IN and OUT at each power up and just after RESTORE FACTORY SETTINGS.
