Introduction  
Operating Precautions  
Storage and Location of Use  
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.  
In a place exposed to rain or moisture.  
In a place with vapor or oil, for example in a kitchen.  
When the ambient temperature rises above or falls below the acceptable  
range (from -10 I to 50 I)  
In a place at which corrosive gases are emitted.  
Near a source of radiation, X-rays, strong radio waves or magnetism.  
In a place subject to vibration.  
In a place with excessive dirt.  
Using this unit or cables connected to this unit at places at which strong  
radio waves and magnetism are emitted (e.g. near a radio, TV, transformer  
or motor) may give rise to noises in the image and changes in its color.  
Maintenance  
Turn off the power before performing maintenance.  
Clean the camera with a soft cloth. Wiping it with thinner or benzene may  
melt the surface or cause it to fog. For tough stains, wipe using a cloth that  
is dipped into a neutral detergent diluted with water, followed by wiping with  
a dry cloth.  
Energy Conservation  
When the camera is not in use for a long time, turn off the power of the  
system for safety and energy conservation reasons.  
10  
 
Others  
This camera comes with a built-in AGC circuit. The sensitivity increases  
automatically at a dark place and the screen may appear grainy. This is not  
a malfunction.  
While the AGC is activated, if a transceiver which causes strong  
electromagnetic wave is used near the camera, the picture may suffer from  
beat.  
Please use the camera more than five meters from such transceivers.  
You may hear some noise during power on and when the screen is  
switched between the color and the black and white mode, because of the  
movement of the optical filter switching motor. Also, the image will be  
somewhat distorted.  
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.  
When this camera is used in the White Balance ATW (automatic tracking)  
mode, the color tone may differ slightly from the actual color due to the  
principle of the automatic tracking white balance circuit. This is not a  
malfunction.  
If a high brightness object (such as a lamp) is shot, the image on the  
screen may have white vertical tailings. This is a characteristic of the CCD  
known as the smear phenomenon and is not a malfunction.  
When a high brightness object is shot, sometimes undulations can be  
observed on the vertical lines of the object. However, this phenomenon is  
peculiar to the camera and is not a malfunction.  
Caution for operating the VIDEO IRIS lens  
If the LEVEL dial of the VIDEO IRIS lens is set to a low level (L position), a  
malfunction - such as the hunting phenomenon where the iris opens and  
closes involuntarily - can occur. In such a case, first set the LEVEL dial on  
the lens to the H position, and then adjust it to an optimum level while  
checking the video signal.  
The cable stopper on the terminal block can come off sometimes.  
Therefore, be sure to take enough time and fix the cable securely.  
This camera achieves optical performance by using specified lens (1/3  
inch size) conformed to CCD size. However, some general lens may not  
meet this specification (effective image circle is small or optic displacement  
is big). When such lens are used, negative effects such as shading may  
occur.

Precautions regarding fall prevention  
Special attention is required when installing the camera to the wall or  
ceiling. You should not engage in the installation work yourself. Ask a  
professional to do the job, since the fall of the camera can result in  
injuries and accidents.  
When installing the camera on a fixer, pan/tilt unit and the like, make  
sure to install it firmly using a rotation-preventive hole to prevent fall.  
To prevent fall, connect the camera to a section with sufficient strength  
(ceiling slab or channel) using a fall prevention wire.  
Pay attention to the length, strength, routing and material (insulation  
properties) of the fall prevention wire used.  
Use the black screw (M3 x 6 mm) on the back of the camera for the  
installation of the fall prevention wire. Using other screws of different  
sizes may damage the inside.

Setup  
Adjusting the back focus  
This camera is adjusted to a optimum wide range for CS-mount lens before  
shipment but readjustment is required when using zoom lens or C-mount lens  
or when the lens focus ring is out of focus. Use the following methods to adjust  
the back focus.

With a fixed-focus lens  
If the focus cannot be adjusted correctly with the lens focus ring, adjust the  
back focus as follows.  
1. Loosen the back focus fastening screw by turning it anti-clockwise  
with a + screwdriver.  
2. Shooting an object or a picture with fine patterns that is away from the  
object  
3. Turn the lens focus ring to  
.  
4. Turn the back focus adjustment ring to focus at the best point.  
5. Tighten the back focus fastening screw by turning it clockwise.  
With a zoom lens  
If the image is out of focus when zooming (telephoto - wide angle), adjust the  
camera as follows.  
1. Loosen the back focus fastening screw by turning it anti-clockwise  
with a + screwdriver.  
2. Shooting an object or a picture with fine patterns that is away from the  
object  
3. Zoom to the maximum telephoto position and turn the lens focus ring  
to adjust the focus.  
4. Zoom to the maximum wide angle position and turn the back focus  
adjustment ring to adjust the focus.  
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 two or three times.  
6. Tighten the back focus fastening screw by turning it clockwise.  
Note:  
In the case of B&W/Color mode, the lens performance may cause the  
image to be out of focus when the illumination of the object is near-infrared  
light. In such a case, use a lens that is compatible with near-infrared light.  
Memo:  
Focus setting may differ on the color and on the black and white screen.  
Make adjustments so that the focus will come to the optimum on both  
screens.  
27  
Setup  
Adjusting the lens  
After the connection is complete, turn on the camera, display an image on the  
monitor and check the video image.  
In the case of an automatic iris control lens, the camera has been factory-  
adjusted to the best position, but it may need to be adjusted according to the  
condition of the object or the lens combination. If the image is unnatural, adjust it.  
Also read the instruction manual of the lens.  
With a VIDEO automatic iris lens (Automatic iris control lens with  
built-in EE amplifier)  
Set the switch at the side of the camera to AVIDEOB and adjust the LEVEL dial  
on the lens.

image looks grainy.  
Depending on the lens used, if the LEVEL dial is turned excessively to L,  
the hunting phenomenon (floppy screen) where the iris opens and closes  
involuntarily may occur. In such a case, first set the LEVEL dial to the H  
position, and then readjust the LEVEL dial while checking the video signal.  
To adjust the focus accurately, open the lens iris. Below is how to open the  
lens iris for automatic iris lens.  
Press the [SELECTOR] switch on the back panel up (J) for 1 second.  
[FOCUS ADJUST MODE] is displayed on the monitor screen.  
When the focus adjustment is completed, press either [SELECTOR]  
switch (J, K, H, K), [MENU] or [SET] button.  
[FOCUS ADJUST MODE] display disappears and the lens iris returns  
to original state.  
Connect the monitor TV to the VIDEO OUT terminal on the back panel and  
make adjustments.

Memo:  
When near-infrared illumination is used, a B&W screen may switch to a  
color screen if the object reflects light excessively. To perform switching  
with higher accuracy, we recommend that you use the settings mentioned  
in AControl by B&W/Color switching signal from externalB (A Pg. 54).  
In the case of B&W/Color mode, the lens performance may cause the  
image to be out of focus when the illumination of the object is near-infrared  
light. In this case, use a lens that is compatible with near-infrared light.
