1. Important Safety Instructions

Be sure to use only the standard adapter that is specified in the specification sheet.

Using any other adapter could cause fire, electrical shock, or damage to the product.

Incorrectly connecting the power supply may cause explosion, fire, electric shock, or

damage to the product. Do not connect multiple products to one single adapter.

Exceeding the capacity may cause abnormal heat generation or fire.

English

Do not place conductive objects (e.g. screwdrivers, coins or any metal items) or

containers filled with water on top of the product. Doing so may cause personal injury

due to fire, electric shock, or falling objects.

If any unusual smells or smoke comes out of the unit, stop using the product. In this

case, immediately disconnect the power source and contact the service center.

Continued use in such a condition may cause fire or electric shock.

3. Installation

3.1. Installation Remarks

Do not install the product in a location subject to high temperature (over 50°C), low

temperature (below -10°C), or high humidity. Doing so may cause fire or electric shock.

Keep out of direct sunlight and heat radiation sources. This may cause fire. Avoid aiming

the camera directly towards extremely bright objects such as the sun, as this may

damage the image sensor.

Do not install the unit in humid, dusty or sooty locations. Doing so may cause fire or

electric shock. Install it in a place with good ventilation.

When installing the unit, fasten it securely and firmly. A falling unit may cause personal

injury.

If you want to relocate the already installed product, be sure to turn the power off and

then move or reinstall it.

Ex-SDI products can be connected through BNC cables. The installation is Plug & Play.

There is no further configuration necessary.

If you do not get a signal, please check whether all cables are connected correctly. The

distance of Ex-SDI signals is limited to approx. 200-300m when using a RG59 cable. If

you want to use Ex-SDI for further distances, please use a higher quality cable (RG6

approx. 400-600m).

All Grundig Ex-SDI Cameras support also the HD-SDI standard so that they can be used

with HD-SDI Recorders that do not support Ex-SDI signals.

3.2. Camera Overview

3.3. Lens Mounting

Lens Mounting for C/CS Mount Lens Model:

It is possible to attach all CS-Mount lenses with manual or DC controlled iris on the

camera. Please remove the camera’s plastic covering first and then attach the CS-Mount

lens onto the camera. If you would like to use a C-Mount lens, you need a 5 mm C/CS

Mount Adapter between the camera and the C-Mount lens, as shown in the illustration

below.

3.4. Back Focus Adjustment

When to adjust the back focus:

Back Focus refers to the distance from the rear lens element to the camera focal plane.

It is only required to adjust the back focus only when the focus cannot be adjusted

throughout its zoom range.

Requirements:

Tools required when carrying out back focus adjustment include:

1. Test chart / contrasting object

2. Allen Key (depending on the camera model)

English

How to adjust the back focus:

Step 1: Set the camera on a stable mount, with the test chart or object at least 75 feet

(23 meters) away (or as far as possible). Please loosen the Back Focus Retaining Screw

by hand or with the supplied Allen Key (depending on the camera model).

Step 2: Make sure the iris is wide open. Therefore, it is advised to keep the environment

in low light condition. To open the automatic lens completely, please use a neutral

density filter. With this filter it is possible to simulate a low light condition so that the lens

can open up completely.

Step 3: Adjust the focus to infinite far (∞).

Step 4: Turn the zoom to the wide angle position, and then focus with the back focus

adjustment on the test chart.

Step 5: Set the zoom now to the most extreme telephoto position.

Step 6: Focus on the object with the focus screw of the lens (not with the back focus

adjustment!). If this procedure is successful, the back focus adjustment is finished and

you can continue with step 8. If it was not successful, please carry on with Step 7.

Step 7: Repeat steps 3 ~ 6 until the focus can be adjusted throughout the zoom range.

When using a zoom lens, the focus does not need to be adjusted again once the back

focus adjustment has been completed. This does not apply to vario lenses.

Step 8: Tighten the back focus ring’s retaining screw to fix the back focus adjustment.

in the MENU SETUP menu.

MENU SETUP:

If you choose this item, a submenu will

appear (see the picture on the left). Here

you can configure all camera settings. This

is the Main Menu.

Please see the following sub-chapters for

further explanations of the settings.

English

MODE SEL [SDI, EX-SDI] :

Select between HD-SDI and Ex-SDI transmission mode.

EXIT:

Leave the OSD.

6.1. Lens

Here you can configure the lens setting.

LENS [DC, MANUAL] :

If you are using a lens with manual Iris, set

this item to MANUAL. If you are using a DC

controlled lens, set it to DC.

6.2. Exposure

When selecting ↵, the following submenu will appear.

The exposure is the amount of light

received by the image sensor and is

determined by the width of lens diaphragm

opening, the amount of exposure by the

sensor (shutter speed) and other exposure

parameters. With this item, users can

define how the Auto Exposure function

should work.

BRIGHTNESS [0~20] :

This function is used to adjust the brightness of the camera picture.

6English

SHUTTER [AUTO, MANUAL (1/25, 1/50, 1/100, 1/540, 1/700, 1/1000,1/1600, 1/2500,

1/5000, 1/7000, 1/10000, 1/30000), FLICKER] :

You can select between automatic shutter and manual fixed shutter speed. If you notice

flickering video images, you can use the FLICKER reducing mode.

SENS-UP [OFF, x2~x32 for 25fps / x2~x64 for 50fps] :

Automatically detects the ambient level of darkness in a dark or low contrast scene to

extend the accumulated time, keeping the image bright and sharp.

AGC (Automatic Gain Control) [0-10] :

The AGC (Auto Gain Control) function is used to amplify the video signal when it falls

below the set parameter. As the AGC level increases, the overall screen gets brighter

but the level of noise will also increase at the same time.

6.3. Backlight

To overcome difficult light situations, the GRUNDIG HD-SDI cameras feature different

options to improve the image quality.

HLC (High Light Compensation):

This function is used to surpress or mask a

strong light source (for example, headlights

of cars during night-time) so that other

subjects can be seen in more detail. If you

select HLC, a submenu appears where you

can make finer adjustments.

- LEVEL: Adjust the brightness level from

which on the light source is to be masked

out.

- COLOR: Select the colour that is to be

used for the HLC mask.

BLC (Back Light Compensation):

This function is used to counterbalance the

screen image by increasing the brightness

so that a subject which appears dark due to

a strong backlight can be displayed in more

detail. If you select BLC, a submenu

appears where you can make finer

adjustments.

- H-POS/ V-POS/ H-SIZE/ V-SIZE: Define

the position and size of the area of interest

by changing the position & size.

English

WDR:

The WDR (Wide Dynamic Range) function

works to correct excessive light within the

frame to produce a usable image. When the

image has simultaneous bright and dark

areas, it makes both areas distinct. If you

select WDR, a submenu appears where you

can make finer adjustments.

- WEIGHT [MIDDLE, HIGH, LOW]: Select

the WDR level of the camera.

NOTE: If the WDR function is activated, the CVBS output will be deactivated.

6.4. Day&Night

Here you can choose different settings to control the DAY&NIGHT function.

COLOUR: The camera is always in colour mode regardless of the ambient conditions.

B/W: The camera is always in Black & White mode regardless of the ambient conditions.

EXTERN:

Here you can activate the EXTERN function

to activate the external Day & Night

connector on the rear panel of the camera.

If you select EXTERN, a submenu appears

where you can make finer adjustments.

- SMART IR [OFF, ON]: Activate or deactivate the Smart IR function. This will reduce the

shutter speed, if the image is overexposed in B&W mode.

- ANTI-SAT. [0-20]: Use the Anti-Saturation function to adjust the IR intensity to your

needs. A higher value will reduce the IR intensity.

- DELAY [MIDDLE, HIGH, LOW]: Set the delay time for switching between COLOUR

and B/W. If set to HIGH, the camera will stay longer in the current mode, before it

switches to the other mode.
