Cautions for Safety

The WAT-910HX/RC is des igned to be used safely; however, if not
used safely, it may lead to a physical accident caus ed by fire and
electric shock. Therefore, plea se keep and read the “Cautio ns for
safety” below for protection agains t accidents.

• Do not disassemble and/or modify the WAT-910HX/RC.

•

Do not operate the WAT-910HX/RC with wet hands.

• Use a stabilized power adaptor designed for DC+12V

±

10%, with a current capacity of more than 250m A for
the WAT-910HX/ RC.

The recommended voltage is DC+12V±10%

• Do not expose the WAT-910HX/RC to wetness or high

moisture conditions.

The WAT-910HX/RC is designed and approved for indoor
use only. The WAT-910HX/RC is not water-resistant or
waterproof. If the location of t he camera is outdoors or in
an outdoor like environment, we recom mend that you use
an outdoor camera housing.

• Protect the WAT-910HX/RC from condensation.

Keep the WAT-910HX/RC dry at all times during storage
and operation.

• Should the camera not work properly, switch off the power

immediately. Then check the camera according to t he
“Problems and Trouble shooting” section.

• Avoid the striking of hard objects or dropping the

WAT-910HX/RC.

The WAT-910HX/RC uses high quality electrical parts and
precision components.

• Do not connect any power supply directly to the video

out terminal of the unit.

Do not connect the WAT-910HX/RC with any monitor using
a video/power single transmis sion terminal. The WAT­910HX/RC is not designed for use with this type of
equipment. We also advise you to read the oper ation
manual of the monitor you plan to use bef ore any
connections are made.

• Do not install the WAT-910HX/RC in a position subject

to direct sunlight.

Sunlight shinning directly onto t he WAT-910HX/RC lens
can cause damage to the CCD.

• Select a stable place for installation of the

WAT-910HX/RC.

Use a support of durable strength around an i nstallation
position on a ceiling or wall when a cam era stand or tripod
is used.

• Do not move the WAT-910HX/RC with the cables

connected.
Before moving the WAT-910HX/RC, always remov e the
video cable and power cable from the rear of the camera
first.

• Avoid using th e WAT-910HX/ RC near any strong

electromagnetic field.

After installing into main equipment, if the WAT-910HX/RC
is exposed to electromagnetic waves causing the
monitored image to become distort ed, we recommend the
camera be shielded by appropriate prot ective casing.

Problems and Trouble Shooting

If any of the following problems occur when using the
WAT-910HX/RC,

• An optimal picture cannot be obtained, after checking that all the

cables and connections are correct ly in place

• Smoke or any unusual odor emerges fr om the WAT-910HX/RC

• An object becomes embedded or a quantit y of liquid seeps into the

camera housing

• More than the recommended voltage or/an d amperage has been

applied to the WAT-910HX/RC by mistake

• Anything unusual occurring to any equipm ent connected to the

WAT-910HX/RC

Disconnect the camera immediately according to t he following
procedures:

①

Switch off the main power supply to the camera.

②Remove the power and video cables connected to th e WAT-910HX/RC.
③Contact the distributor or dealer from which the WAT-910HX/RC was

purchased.

Set-up and Operation

1) Ensure that the power to the WAT-910HX/RC and the peripheral
equipment is turned off before making any c onnections.

2) Remove the lens mount cap from the WAT-910HX/RC and attach the
CS-mount lens. Use the optional C-mount adapt or (30CMA-R) when
a C-mount lens is used.

3) Connect the iris control c able to ⑤AUTO-IRIS SOCKET on the
WAT-910HX/RC when an auto-ir is lens is being used.

4) Connect ⑦VIDEO OUT on the WAT-910HX/RC with the monitor,
using a coaxial cable with 75Ω impedance, suc h as an RG-59 or an
RG-6/U.
※Select a monitor with the same televis ion system as the WAT-

910HX/RC EIA or CCIR. A monitor with more than 600TV lines is
recommended.

5) Insert the power plug of the power adaptor into ⑨POWER IN on the
back panel of the WAT-910HX/RC. Confirm that the power adaptor is
not connected to the power supply before ins ertion of the power plug
into ⑨POWER IN.

6) Turn on the power to the WAT-910HX/RC, monitor and all other
allied equipment. When a picture cannot be obtained on t he monitor,
or a problem occurs, check and follow the procedure mentioned in
the【Problems and Trouble Shooting】section.

7) After following the procedure below and the picture i s still out of
focus, open the iris fully and loosen ④FINE FOCUSING
ADJUSTMENT SCREWS with the hex. wrench and mo ve the lens
forwards until a clear picture is obtai ned.

Manual Lens

Adjust the focus and iris to the best
position on the lens.

Video Auto-iris Lens Adjust the focus on the lens.

DC Auto-iris Lens

Adjust the iris level on the camera, then
adjust the focus on the lens. See below.

Iris Level Adjustment (for DC auto-iris lenses on ly)

Adjust ③IRIS LEVEL VOLUME placed on the side
of the unit until an acceptable light level is attained.
No change will occur if a video iris lens or manual
iris lens is fitted.

※ When an auto iris lens is used, connect the remote cont rol

to ⑧OSD(On Screen Display) CONNECTOR, then set
SHUTTER to 1/60 (1/50), SENS UP to OFF and AGC to OFF by
⑪OPERATION BUTTON. Then adjust ③IRIS LEVEL VOLUME
until an acceptable light level is attained.

8) When detailed settings are required or an a dequate image is not
obtained, connect the remote control to ⑧OSD(On Scr een Display)
