REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.  
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within  
an equilateral triangle, 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.  
The exclamation point within an equilateral  
triangle is intended to alert the user to the  
presence of important operating and maintenance  
(servicing) instructions in the literature  
accompanying the appliance.

HOW TO USE  
1. Adjust the iris and focus of the lens so that optimum image  
CS-mount  
may be obtained.  
*Usable lenses  
Lens  
4mm or less  
CS-mount lenses, whose length "L" (in the illustration)  
from the bearing surface of the mount is 4mm or less if  
protruded, should be used.

*Using the zoom lens (adjustment of the back focus)  
The camera is set at the standard back focus position when  
shipped from factory. Depending on types of zoom lenses,  
however, slight readjustment may be necessary.  
Adjust the lens back-focus by turning the focusing dial in

Focusing dial  
either direction as per the illustration, referring to the following instructions.

2
Place an object at any fixed distance and set the focus ring of the zoom lens accordingly.  
Set the zoom lens to full TELE position and obtain the best focus position by turning the  
focus ring or the zoom lens.  
3
Set the zoom lens to full WIDE position and obtain the best focus position by turning the  
focusing dial located on the side of the camera.  
Repeat procedures 2 and 3 until focus remains constant throughout the zooming range.  
4
Note: When weight of the lens is more than 1kg (2.2lbs), the camera should be supported by the  
lens rather than relying on camera mounting screw.  
Adjust the back-focus only when necessary.  
* Using an auto iris lens  
When a DC driven type auto iris lens is used, set the AUTO IRIS switch at DC, and connect the  
plug of the lens (for iris terminal) to the IRIS terminal on the right side of the camera.  
When a video feedback type auto iris lens is used, set the AUTO IRIS switch at VIDEO, and  
connect the plug of the lens (for iris terminal) to the IRIS terminal on the right side of the  
camera. (Refer to Lens manual for the level adjustment.)

*When a video feedback type auto iris lens (peak/average selectable type) is used at peak  
mode, BLC may not function well. In such a case, select the average mode.  
2. Before your use of the camera at AES (Automatic Electronic Shutter) mode.  
*When using an auto-iris lens, set the AES switch at OFF.  
(The AES switch is set at OFF when shipped from factory.)  
*The AES mode may increase smears on monitors, which is caused by characteristics of CCD  
and is not defect.  
Set the AES switch at OFF in case smears appear excessively.

set the switch to the LL side.  
When two or more cameras are switched by the video switcher to a monitor TV, the vertical  
sync. phase can be locked with the power frequency, and a stable vertical sync. is obtained  
without being disturbed at the time of switching.  
Caution:  
1.The camera is synchronized to the power frequency of 60Hz 0.5Hz covering a normal  
fluctuation of the power frequency.  
The camera may not compensate for large fluctuation caused by power generated by an  
engine generator, etc.  
2.It takes about 10 seconds or more to obtain a stable synchronization after the power is

turned on. This is necessary to stabilize the camera against the power noise.  
4 White balance selector  
Manual or Automatic white balance modes are selectable. With the setting at AUTO position,  
the camera automatically adjusts to the color temperature and adjusts the white balance. The  
camera is factory-set at AUTO position. For manual adjustment, set to MANU position and set  
the white balance switches as follows.  
White balance (WB): According to the combination of the switches 1 and 2, the following  
adjustments are available:

Note: In electronic shutter mode;  
*Sufficient brightness is required.  
*The picture will flicker when shooting under the illumination produced by fluorescent lamp.

Vertical sync. phase adjustment  
Vertical sync. phase adjusting is set at the position fully that the delay time of vertical sync.

Use the push button  
if the picture image on a monitor TV may flow when using the  
camera in combination with other camera(s) controlled by the Line-Lock synchronization.  
In this case, get a proper image by shifting the phase of vertical sync. signal of the camera  
against that of the other. If a proper image cannot be obtained even after this adjustment,  
reset the potentiometer to its original position, and use the function control potentiometer  
8
of the other camera to shift the phase of vertical sync. signal of other camera.  
Caution: Before making adjustment, make sure that cameras have their power supplies  
connected with the same polarity. (not 180° apart)  
Manual white balance selector  
When the white balance selector is set to MANU (shift change) in 4 above, the white  
balance can be adjusted by using the PUSH switch. This mode will prove effective under  
shooting conditions with little variation in color temperture.  
*When the white balance selector is set to MANU (shift change), the vertical sync. phase can  
not be adjusted.

PRECAUTIONS FOR USE AND INSTALLATION  
*Never aim the camera at the sun.  
*Install your camera where no video noise  
appears.  
Never aim or point the camera at the sun even  
if you are not shooting.  
*Do not shoot intense light.  
When camera cables have been laid near  
electric wires or television receivers, a noise  
may interfere the image.  
Strong light such as a spot light on the image  
plane will cause blooming or smear. When  
strong light comes into the image plane,  
If noise occurs, relocate cables or reinstall  
equipment.  
vertical stripes may appear on it. However, *Check the ambient temperature and humidity.  
this does not mean that the camera is defect.  
*Take precautions when handling a camera.  
Do not drop your camera, or give it a strong  
shook or vibration. This may cause camera to  
malfunction.  
Avoid using camera in areas where  
temperature is consistently hotter or colder  
than the specified range (See Specifications  
chart below) or poor image quality or  
damaged parts may occur. Precautions should  
also be taken to avoid areas of high humidity.  
*Do not touch internal parts.  
Be sure not to touch the internal parts. This *Should you notice any trouble.  
may cause to electrical shock.  
*Do not let the camera get wet.  
Install the camera at the place where it will  
not get wet.  
If any trouble occurs while you are using the  
camera, turn off the camera and contact your  
dealer. Failure to do so may cause damage to  
the camera.  
Should it gets wet, turn off the power *The socket-outlet should be installed near the
