Tips for Camera Location

1.0 To avoid internal overheating:

-never expose the camera to direct sunlight without additional camera housing

-keep sufficient distance to direct heat sources.

2.0 Never install the camera at humid, oily or dusty locations without using an

additional housing. (without additional housing the camera is not suitable for

outdoor use!)

3.0 The camera should be installed out of reach (min. height: 2.30 m)

4.0Do not aim the camera towards indoor lighting, the windows, the sunlight or the

sky (to get good pictures, camera and light should be aimed towards the object)

5.0 Reduce the picture detail to the

essential parts of the picture and place

the camera as close as possible to the

object (a smaller picture detail

guarantees sharper details).

6.0 Do not aim the camera towards a

window but instead towards the room.

7.0 Outdoors the camera should be

placed as high as possible so that the

horizon does not appear in the picture.

8.0 Avoid peak light as background (also

caused by reflections, e.g. window

panes).

Adjustment of Back Focus

This adjustment should only be carried out, if the lens cannot be focused properly

using the lens focus ring. For such a case proceed as follows:

1 Loosen the Allan head screw with the

attached Allan head key. For large distances,

turn the focus ring of the lens almost (0.5 cm)

to the "endless" limit position. If you need to

focus an object near the camera, turn the

focus ring of the lens to a position 1cm before

the "near" limit position.

2 Use the back focus adjustment screw to adjust the distance between lens and

CCD chip until the picture is in focus. Then fix the Allan head screw using the Allan

head key.

3 Finally, focus the picture using the lens focus ring.

Adjustment of ES / DC Lenses

To adjust a lens with automatic iris (DC driven or video driven) to the camera, please

proceed as follows:

1. Turn the level potentiometer (position: ES lenses at the lens itself, DC lenses: at

the camera) to the max. position H (turn right). The monitor picture then appears

to be too bright.

2. Slowly turn the level potentiometer back until the monitor picture appears to be

perfect and is not too bright anymore. Then turn the potentiometer back to the

right (in direction "H") just a little bit.

3. Check the lens performance by using the camera under different and/or changing

light conditions.

Focusing the Camera Lens

After you have selected the correct picture detail you have to adjust the lens focus.

The focus adjustment needs to be done with the iris fully open, since the camera has

the smallest depth of focus in this position. If the focus adjustment was not done with

the iris completely open, the picture would be sharp during the day but slowly getting

out of focus the more the light disappears. To fully open the lens, use a grey filter in

front of the lens, provided you are using a lens with automatic iris. Adjust the focus

while the iris is fully open using the lens focus ring. Make sure the most important

picture details are in optimum focus (use a service monitor). If it is not possible to

bring the picture into focus, please adjust the back focus of the camera as described

above.

If you intend to use I.R. illumination at a later stage, you must use an I.R. pass filter

together with the grey filter during focus adjustment to ensure that only I.R. light will

get through to the camera chip and the focus adjustment is done according to this

spectrum, only. Attention: I.R. light can only be used in combination with mono

cameras, not colour cameras!

Troubleshooting

Error Cause

No picture - No operating voltage (check red LED)

- Coaxial connection interrupted (check video cable)

The picture is noisy - Insufficient light

- The lens drive of the used lens (DC / AI) is not

properly adjusted to the camera (level too low)

The picture is too bright - The lens drive of the used lens (DC / AI) is not

properly adjusted to the camera (level too high)

- Too much peak light; change camera location or

activate backlight function of the camera

The picture is not sharp - Focus not adjusted properly

- Back focus not adjusted properly

- When used outdoors: heater defective; front pane of

camera housing gets steamy

The picture is distorted - Different GND potentials between camera and

monitor; use opto coupler (e.g. VPT from videotronic)

- Bad connections

Ghost image - Wrong 75 Wtermination

- Shield of video cable interrupted

Synchronisation of cameras

does not work properly

- No or bad linelock connection between camera (12

V/DC version) and power adapter

- Mains plug twisted; turn the mains plug by 180° to

change the linelock phase

Please contact your authorised dealer with an exact failure description if none of the

above remedy measures fixes your problem.
