Operating Precautions  
To save energy, when it is not being used  
turn the system’s power off.  
This camera has been designed for indoor  
use. When you use it outdoors, be sure  
to use a housing or the like.  
Do not install or use the camera in the  
following places.  
Observe the following when carrying out  
camera maintenance.  
A new DSP (Digital Signal Processor)  
features a Extended Dynamic Range  
(ExDR) and enables to shoot both bright  
and dark locations.  
Before starting an important recording,  
be sure to perform a test recording in  
order to confirm that a normal  
recording is possible.  
Turn the power OFF before proceeding  
to carry out maintenance.  
If it is contaminated seriously, clean the  
contaminated part with a cloth (or a  
tissue) which has been soaked in a  
solution of water and a neutral detergent.  
The unit is to be powered by a DC 12 V  
or an AC 24 V power supply.  
We do not accept liability for the loss of  
a recording in the case of it becoming  
impossible to record due to a problem  
in the video camera, VCR or video tape.  
We do not accept liability for any  
damage to the camera in cases where  
it is dropped because of bad installation  
due to failure to observe the installation  
instructions correctly. Please be careful  
when installing the camera.  
The use of a new CCD with a SENSE UP  
(X32) function realized the minimum  
luminous flux density for subject of 0.6 lx  
(F1.2, 50%, AGC 20dB) and 0.019 lx (at  
SENSE UP (X32)). Furthermore, we  
realized 0.02 lx (F1.2, 50% AGC 20dB)  
thanks to the function of B/W mode.  
• In a place exposed to rain or moisture.  
• In a place with vapor or oil soot, for  
example in a kitchen.  
• When the ambient temperature rises  
above or falls below the acceptable  
range (from –10°C to 50°C).  
• Near a source of radiation, X-rays,  
strong radio waves or magnetism.  
• In a place subject to vibration.  
The AC 24V power supply should conform  
to the following: Isolated power supply  
only  
Caution for operating the video iris lens.  
If the video iris lens is set to an extremely  
low level, a malfunction – such as the  
hunting phenomenon where the iris opens  
and closes in voluntary – can occur.  
In such a case, first set the “LEVEL”  
potentiometer on the lens to the H position  
(iris open), and then adjust it to an optimum  
level. (page 20)  
The cable stopper on the terminal block  
can come off sometimes. Therefore, be  
sure to take enough time and fix the cable  
securely.  
When a highly bright subject is shot,  
sometimes undulations can be observed  
on the vertical lines of the subject.  
However, this phenomenon is peculiar to  
the unit and is not a sign of malfunction.  
The beat may sometimes appear on the  
screen if gain is raised when the line lock  
is in use, but the phenomenon takes place  
due to the fluctuation of power frequency  
and is not a malfunction.  
You may hear some noise when the  
screen is switched between the color and  
the black and white mode, because the  
optical filter moves. Also, black vertical  
bands will appear on the screen.  
A motion detector function detects the  
motion inside an image and emits alarm  
signals.  
The motion detector is not a feature  
which prevents theft, fire, etc. Even if  
an accident should occur resulting in  
damage, we do not accept any liability.  
• In a place with excessive dirt.  
If this camera and the cables connected  
to this camera are used where there are  
strong electromagnetic waves or where  
there is magnetism present, for example  
near a radio or TV transmitter, power  
transformer or an electric motor, the picture  
may produce noise and the colours may  
be affected.  
This camera incorporates an AGC circuit.  
As a result, when it is used under low light  
conditions, the camera sensitivity is  
automatically boosted and the picture may  
look uneven. However, this is not a  
malfunction.  
The equipped Y/C terminals and RS-  
422A/RS-485 terminals allow intended  
compatibility with diversified systems.  
Day/Night surveillance  
When the light is low, the camera pictures  
can be switched automatically to black  
and white pictures.  
Electronic zoom  
The 10x electronic zoom allows  
monitoring in far greater detail.  
While the AGC is activated, if transceiver  
which causes strong electromagnetic  
wave is at close distance, picture might  
suffer from beat.  
So please use the camera more than three  
meters from such transceivers.  
When this camera is used in the ATW  
mode, the recorded colours may be slightly  
different from the actual colours due to the  
operational principles of the auto-tracking  
white balance circuit. However, this is not  
a malfunction.  
If a high-intensity object (such as a lamp)  
is shot, the image on the screen may have  
vertical lines (smear) or blur (blooming)  
at its periphery.This is a characteristic of  
the CCD, and is not a defect.

CONNECTION/INSTALLATION  
Installing the ferrite core  
To retain electromagnetic compatibility, use the ferrite cores provided when connecting to  
the lens.  
MEMO  
• If thin cables are used (i.e. with a high resistance), a significant voltage drop will occur when  
the unit is at its maximum power consumption. Either use a thick cable to restrict the voltage  
drop at the camera side to below 10%, or place the power supply near to the camera. If  
voltage drop occurs during operation, the performance will be unstable.  
• Attach the cable conductors so that they do not come into contact with the drop prevention  
wires.

• Do not allow input from both a DC 12 V and AC 24 V power supply at the same time.  
• When using a DC 12 V power supply, ensure that the polarities of the cable are correct.  
• The AC 24 V power supply should conform to the following: Isolated power supply only

Genlock connection  
These cables should be connected only when  
it is required to control the camera using the  
RS-442A or RS-485 signals. The use of 0.65  
4-conductor twisted pair cables is recom-  
mended. With these cables, the maximum ex-  
tension distance is 1,200 m.  
With some systems, when the external sync  
signal is a composite video or black burst sig-  
nal genlocking by applying an external sync  
input requires the horizontal phase (H  
PHASE) and colour phase (SC COARSE) to  
be adjusted.  
Notes:  
Install the ferrite cores within 50 mm of the camera-side connectors. (Fasten the ferrite  
core with the wire clamp provided.)

CONNECTION/INSTALLATION  
Lens adjustment  
Back focus adjustment  
Connect the camera according to the connection method, turn it on, display an image on the  
monitor, and check the image.The camera has been factory-adjusted to the best position, but  
it may need to be adjusted according to the object conditions or combination of lenses. If the  
image is unnatural, adjust it as follows: (Also read the instruction manual of the lens.)  
Back focus adjustment  
Be sure to make back-focus adjustments when changing the lens mounting method or using  
a different lens. If required, adjust it as follows:  
To make accurate back focus adjustments, use the electronic shutter and the ND filter,  
and carry out the following adjustments in a state where the lens iris is released. (The ND  
filter acts to reduce the amount of incident light entering the lens evenly over the entire  
wavelength band.)

The use of an electronic shutter function enables shooting with  
proper brightness, as more brightness results in higher shutter  
speed.  
The ExDR function allows even the shooting of a subject having  
different luminous flux density by composing a picture shot at 1/

the item M.ExDR.SPEED on the SHUTTER (ExDR)  
screen sets the composing high shutter speed. It is  
possible to set only when the items BLC and SENSE

This item makes up a sensitivity should be heightened automatical-  
ly when a subject becomes dark.  
In case of the X32 AUTO, the sensitivity is automatically heightened  
up to 32 times continuously as compared with standard.  
As the sensitivity becomes higher, the shutter speed becomes lower,  
resulting in unnatural motion.  
* The indicated position on the screen should be used as  
a rough guide.  
EDIT 1 to EDIT 2: When the SET button is pressed, the  
user light metering areas are displayed. Select one of the  
two types.  
If SHUTTER/ExDR is set to MANUAL or the M.ExDR,  
“- - -” will appear, disabling the SENSE UP function.

MEMO  
• When the magnification of SENSE UP is enhanced, the screen  
can become coarse or whitish, or whitish flaws can emerge  
sometimes, but this is not abnormal.  
• When the item SENSE UP is set other than to OFF, a flicker can  
occur under a fluorescent lamp, mercury lamp, etc. However, this  
occurs by principle of SENSE UP, and therefore this is not a  
malfunction.

MEMO  
• If AUTO is selected as the B&W item, the B&W/COLOUR  
setting can be switched as appropriate according to the  
brightness of the object, but illumination and screen  
conditions may make this impossible. Moreover, when  
you use infrared illumination, if the subject excessively  
reflects, a B/W screen can switch to a color screen. To  
make absolutely certain of B&W/COLOUR switching,  
set to AUX and input the control signal to the AUX  
terminal.  
• If AUX is selected as the B&W item, the AUXTERMINAL  
item is automatically set to B&W IN. If this changes to  
anything other than AUX, the AUX TERMINAL item  
reverts to the value set before the change was made.

White spot compensation  
CCDs have the general characteristic that white spots appear on the screen when the CCD is  
operated at high temperatures or when they are used with a slow shutter speed.  
This unit has a built-in white spot compensation function to reduce these white spots.  
(The number and the size of the white spots changes according to the use temperature, the  
shutter speed, etc. Furthermore, there is a limit on the number of white spots that can be  
compensated.)

INTRODUCTION  
Features  
Operating Precautions  
A new DSP (Digital Signal Processor)  
features a Extended Dynamic Range  
(ExDR) and enables to shoot both bright  
and dark locations.  
To save energy, when it is not being used  
turn the system’s power off.  
This camera has been designed for indoor  
use. When you use it outdoors, be sure  
to use a housing or the like.  
If a high-intensity object (such as a lamp)  
is shot, the image on the screen may have  
vertical lines (smear) or blur (blooming)  
at its periphery.This is a characteristic of  
the CCD, and is not a defect.  
Before starting an important recording,  
be sure to perform a test recording in  
order to confirm that a normal  
recording is possible.  
We do not accept liability for the loss of  
a recording in the case of it becoming  
impossible to record due to a problem  
in the video camera, VCR or video tape.  
We do not accept liability for any  
damage to the camera in cases where  
it is dropped because of bad installation  
due to failure to observe the installation  
instructions correctly. Please be careful  
when installing the camera.  
The use of a new CCD with a SENSE UP  
(X32) function realized the minimum  
luminous flux density for subject of 0.6 lx  
(F1.2, 50%, AGC 20dB) and 0.019 lx (at  
slow shutter).  
Do not install or use the camera in the  
following places.  
Observe the following when carrying out  
camera maintenance.  
• In a place exposed to rain or moisture.  
• In a place with vapor or oil soot, for  
example in a kitchen.  
• When the ambient temperature rises  
above or falls below the acceptable  
range (from –10°C to 50°C).  
• Near a source of radiation, X-rays,  
strong radio waves or magnetism.  
• In a place subject to vibration.  
Turn the power OFF before proceeding  
to carry out maintenance.  
If it is contaminated seriously, clean the  
contaminated part with a cloth (or a  
tissue) which has been soaked in a  
solution of water and a neutral detergent.  
The unit is to be powered by a DC 12 V or  
an AC 24 V power supply. (TK-C1480BE)  
The AC 24V power supply should conform  
to the following:Isolated power supply only  
TK-C1481BEG Connect the power cable  
to the commercial power supply of 230V.  
Caution for operating the video iris lens.  
If the video iris lens is set to an extremely  
low level, a malfunction – such as the  
hunting phenomenon where the iris opens  
and closes involuntary – can occur.  
In such a case, first set the “LEVEL”  
potentiometer on the lens to the H position  
(iris open), and then adjust it to an optimum  
level.  
A motion detector function detects the  
motion inside an image and emits alarm  
signals.  
The motion detector is not a feature  
which prevents theft, fire, etc. Even if  
an accident should occur resulting in  
damage, we do not accept any liability.  
The equipped Y/C terminals and RS-  
422A/RS-485 terminals allow intended  
compatibility with diversified systems.  
• In a place with excessive dirt.  
If this camera and the cables connected  
to this camera are used where there are  
strong electromagnetic waves or where  
there is magnetism present, for example  
near a radio or TV transmitter, power  
transformer or an electric motor, the picture  
may produce noise and the colours may  
be affected.  
This camera incorporates an AGC circuit.  
As a result, when it is used under low light  
conditions, the camera sensitivity is  
automatically boosted and the picture may  
look uneven. However, this is not a  
malfunction.  
Electronic zoom  
The 10x electronic zoom allows  
monitoring in far greater detail.  
The cable stopper on the terminal block  
can come off sometimes. Therefore, be  
sure to take enough time and fix the cable  
securely.  
While the AGC is activated, if a transceiver  
which causes strong electromagnetic wave  
is at close distance, the picture might suffer  
from beat.  
When a highly bright subject is shot,  
sometimes undulations can be observed  
on the vertical lines of the subject.  
However, this phenomenon is peculiar to  
the unit and is not a sign of malfunction.  
The beat may sometimes appear on the  
screen if gain is raised when the line lock  
is in use, but the phenomenon takes place  
due to the fluctuation of power frequency  
and is not a malfunction.  
So please use the camera more than three  
meters from such transceivers.  
When this camera is used in the ATW  
mode, the recorded colours may be slightly  
different from the actual colours due to the  
operational principles of the auto-tracking  
white balance circuit. However, this is not  
a malfunction.

CONNECTION/INSTALLATION  
Installing the ferrite core  
To retain electromagnetic compatibility, use the ferrite cores provided when connecting to the  
MEMO  
lens.  
• If thin cables are used (i.e. with a high resistance), a significant voltage drop will occur when  
the unit is at its maximum power consumption. Either use a thick cable to restrict the voltage  
drop at the camera side to below 10%, or place the power supply near to the camera. If  
voltage drop occurs during operation, the performance will be unstable.  
• Attach the cable conductors so that they do not come into contact with the drop prevention  
wires.  
Video-iris lens  
(or galvanometnc-iris lens)  
• Do not allow input from both a DC 12 V and AC 24 V power supply at the same time.  
• When using a DC 12 V power supply, ensure that the polarities of the cable are correct.  
• The AC 24 V power supply should conform to the following:

Genlock connection  
The following table shows the connection  
distances and connection cables provided  
that 2-conductor VVF cables (vinyl-insulated  
vinyl sheath cables) are used.  
These cables should be connected only when  
it is required to control the camera using the  
RS-442A or RS-485 signals. The use of 0.65  
4-conductor twisted pair cables is recom-  
mended. With these cables, the maximum ex-  
tension distance is 1,200 m.  
With some systems, when the external sync  
signal is a composite video or black burst sig-  
nal genlocking by applying an external sync  
input requires the horizontal phase (H

be adjusted.

becomes low.  
When the item AGC MODE or the item SENSE UP is set  
to OFF, - - -” will appear, disabling any setting.  
MOTION: Priority is given to motion.  
This is suitable to a subject with quick motion,  
since the AGC (automatic gain control) functions  
with priority when the subject becomes dark.  
PICTURE: Priority is given to image.

MEMO  
• In the case of a subject with a large difference in the luminous flux  
density, sometimes images do not change even if ExDR LEVEL is  
varied. However, this occurrence is a peculiarity of the unit and is  
not a malfunction.  
If the item SHUTTER/ExDR is set to the M.ExDR or the  
A.ExDR, “- - -” will appear, and the BLC does not function.  
M.ExDR  
SPEED  
This sets the composing high shutter speed when ExDR is set to  
M.ExDR. Set the shutter speed in order that a subject with a high  
luminous flux density (outdoor, etc.) may come out most clearly. This
