To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose the unit

to rain or moisture.

The symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of

important operating and maintenance (servicing)

instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

The symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated

"dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient

magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

Warning -- This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A

digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide

reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a

commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency

energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause

harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area

is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the

interference at their own expense.

Caution -- Any changes or modifications in construction of this device which are not expressly

approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the

equipment.

WARNING

1. Installation of the camera must be performed by qualified service personnel in

accordance with all local and national electrical and mechanical codes.

2. Do not attempt to disassemble the camera.

In order to prevent electric shock, do not remove screws or cover. There are no user-

serviceable parts inside.

Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

3. Handle the camera with care.

The camera could be damaged by improper handling or storage.

4. Do not expose the camera to rain or moisture or try to operate it in wet areas.

Take immediate action if the camera becomes wet. Turn the power off and refer servicing

to qualified service personnel. Moisture can damage the camera and also create a danger

of electric shock.

5. Do not use strong or abrasive detergents when cleaning the camera body.

Use a dry cloth to clean the camera when dirty. In a case when the dirt is hard to remove,

use a mild detergent and wipe gently.

6. Never point the camera toward the sun.

Whether the camera is used outdoors or not, never point it toward the sun. Use caution

when operating the camera in the vicinity of spot lights or other bright lights and light-

reflecting objects.

7. Do not operate the camera beyond its temperature, humidity or power source ratings.

Do not use the camera in an extreme environment where high temperature or high

humidity exists. Use the camera under conditions where temperatures are between

14°~122° F (-10 to +50°C), and humidity is below 85%. For the correct power supply, refer

to the specification sheet.

8. If using 24 VAC power adapter, only use a AC 24V UL Listed Class 2 power transformer.

PRECAUTIONS

Caution:

To prevent fire or shock hazard, the UL listed wire VW-1, style 1007 should be used for

24 VAC input terminals.

1. Iris lens connector plug for DC or VIDEO drive – 1pc

2. Dust protective cap - 1pc

3. Manual – 1pc

PACKING LIST

① Video output connector (BNC)

1.0 V p-p/75Ωcomposite video signal is provided at this connector.

② Power input connector (screw terminal)

This terminal accepts 24 VAC power source.

Recommended Power Supply: Minimum 300 mA or 7.2 W.

Caution:

1. Only use AC 24V UL listed Class 2 power transformer.

2. To prevent fire or shock hazard, UL listed wire VW-1, style 1007, should

be used for the cable for AC 24V input terminal.

CONNECTORS AND CONTROLS

③ Autoiris lens connector for DC or VIDEO drive lens

Use of a DC drive lens:

It supplies the control signals to the DC drive autoiris lens.

When using a DC drive lens, set DC and VIDEO drive select switch (switch ↓) to DC

drive and MODE SELECT SWITCH 4 (ALC/ELC) to ALC MODE.

Use of a VIDEO drive lens:

It supplies the control signals to the VIDEO drive autoiris lens.

VIDEO Drive Lens Cable Pin Connections

POWER SUPPLY (9 VDC, 40 mA)

VIDEO OUTPUT (0.7 V p-p without sync)

GROUND

When using a VIDEO drive lens, set DC and VIDEO drive select switch (switch ↓) to

VIDEO drive and MODE SELECT SWITCH 4 (ALC/ELC) to ALC MODE.

④ VIDEO and DC drive select switch

This switch allows the selection of DC drive lens or VIDEO drive lens.

⑤ Power Indicator LED

This LED turns ON only when power is supplied properly and the DC-DC converter (or

the regulator) inside the camera works properly.

⑥, 7 V-Phase Adjustment pushbutton

This camera is designed to keep the initial data value of V-phase in EEPROM.

NOTE : This camera offers V-phase adjustment over a range of ±180°. If two or more

cameras are connected to a switcher and the picture on the monitor rolls while

switching from camera A to B, adjusting the vertical phase (V-phase) of the cameras

will probably eliminate the rolling. If this adjustment is necessary, it should only be

performed by a qualified technician. Before making any adjustment, confirm that

cameras A and B are connected to the power supply with the same polarity.

To make an adjustment, follow the steps below.

1. While observing the video output signals from both cameras on an oscilloscope,

press camera A's V-phase control pushbutton (on back of camera) until vertical sync

from both cameras are in phase.

2. If camera A's adjustment range is insufficient, adjust camera B's V-phase control

pushbutton in the opposite direction to camera A until they are in phase.

3. If these adjustments do not bring vertical sync from both cameras in phase, recheck

the polarity of the power supply connections.

Camera A's VIDEO OUT

Camera B's VIDEO OUT

Should be in phase

8 AWB HOLD pushbutton

Use of the AWB HOLD pushbutton:

1. When a subject is lighted by many kinds of light.

2. When you use a special lamp, such as a sodium lamp or mercury vapor lamp.

How to use:

1. Select AWB of mode select switch ∝Pole 5 (AWB/ATW) (AWB is OFF).

2. Display a full screen of white paper or white subject on the monitor.

3. Adjust the screen color to be white pushing AWB HOLD pushbutton.

9ALC level adjustment potentiometer for DC drive lens

This potentiometer is used only if the camera is fitted with a DC drive autoiris lens. It is

used to control the amount of light striking the CCD image sensor.

lMODE select switch

1. INT/LL switch

This camera can operate independently, using its internal crystal-controlled sync

generator, or it may be synchronized using line-locking.

To select one or the other of these sync modes, set the DIP switch on the rear panel to

either INT or LL. Pole 1 is set to ON for LL and OFF for INT.

If line-locking is selected, all the cameras in the system must be adjusted to begin the

video field scan at the same time. This is described in 9and l. Note that when

switching synchronization modes, power must be cycled or there can be loss of video.

First power down, change INT/LL switch and then power up.

LENS-IRIS level

2. FLON switch (FLICKERLESS ON / OFF)

This function is only used in JAPAN.

When the DIP switch on the rear panel is set to ON, the shutter speed is fixed at a rate of

1/100 (120) (sec).

3. BLC (backlight compensation) ON/OFF switch

If the subject you wish to view is too dim because of a bright background, set the BLC

switch to ON to compensate for the bright background.

With BLC ON, the background brightness may saturate in some cases. This function may

not operate properly if the object is too small compared to the area of the background. This

function can be used with either the linear shutter (EE or ELC mode) or an autoiris lens (AI

lens or ALC mode).

WITH BLC OFF WITH BLC ON

4. ALC/ELC select switch

This switch is used to select EE (electronic exposure) or ELC (electronic light control) mode

or AI (autoiris lens) or ALC (automatic light control) mode. Pole 4 is set to ON for ELC and

OFF for ALC.

In the EE mode, a continuously variable electronic shutter is employed to automatically

control the exposure time of the CCD image sensor according to the incoming light

level. With this mode selected, a fixed or manual iris lens can be used instead of an

autoiris lens. In the AI mode, the CCD shutter speed is fixed to 1/60 (1/50) sec, and the

incoming light level is controlled by the autoiris lens.

To use a video-drive type or the DC-drive type of autoiris lens, set this switch to the

ALC position.
