In such case, contact us or our dealer/distributor from which you purchased the camera for repair service. If any malfunctioning sign is observed, discontinue the use immediately. Do NOT try to use the camera when it is malfunctioning. (Ex. No images on the monitor) In the event of malfunction, turn the power switch of the system OFF immediately, and remove the camera cable from the camera connector. In such case, contact us or our dealer/distributor from which you purchased the camera for repair service. If any foreign object gets into the camera, discontinue the use immediately. In the event that liquids, small particles, or any other foreign objects get into the camera, do NOT try to continue to use the camera. To do so invites a fire or an electric shock hazard. In that case, turn the power switch of the camera OFF immediately, and remove the camera cable from the camera connector. After that, contact us or our dealer/distributor from which you purchased the camera for repair service/technical advice.

3 Do NOT disassemble the camera. Do NOT attempt to pull apart; repair, or modify the camera on your own. To do so leads to a fire or an electric shock accident. Contact us or the dealer/distributor from which you purchased the camera for repair/modifacation. Do NOT supply any power than specified. The camera is designed to work only under specified voltage. Do NOT attempt to drive the camera with the power other than DC12V. Operating the camera under power other than DC12V invites a fire or a electric shock hazard.. Do NOT use the camera in a high-humidity environment. Do NOT place the camera near a humidifier, or in other high-humidity environment. To do so may cause a fire or an electric shock accident. CAUTION If the camera is operated in the electromagnetic field, there may be cases where noises (vertical, horizontal, or oblique stripes) may appear to a video output. In that case, take preventive measures on the electromagnetic-wave generating source so that the camera do not receive the interference by the electromagneticwave. Take extra precautions against electromagnetic-wave-interference if the camera is used with a servomotor, inverter, or other electromagnetic-wavegenerating equipment. Avoid giving a strong shock against the camera. If your camera is used in the system where its camera connector is subjected to strong repetitive shocks, the camera connector is possible to break down. If you intend to use your camera in such a situation, make sure to use an optional-connector-fixing-hardware to connect the connector-plug to the camera body. When the camera is not in use, put a lens or a lens-cap onto the cam head so that the image pickup plane of CCD is protected from dust, foreign object, or other flaw-causing object. If the glass plane (image pickup plane) gets dirty, clean it with a cotton swab. When it needs to be cleaned with a cleaner, be sure NOT to use any organic solvent other than ethyl alcohol.. As a countermeasure against condensation, when the camera is moved from a warm place to a cold place, take appropriate precautions to prevent condensation from forming on the camera. Do not pull strongly the camera cable nor swing it. The stress from pulling or swinging may cause damage in the coating of the cable, or breaks in the inside wires. Avoid short-circuiting its signal output. Otherwise, the camera might be damaged. If too much amount of light, (= the incoming light amount of 100 times or greater in comparison with standard light)enters CCD image pickup plane, video output might not be obtained. In such a case, take measures to reduce the amount of incoming light. Do NOT expose the camera to intensive light (sunlight, etc.) to prevent its inner CCD from gelling damaged. When mounting a lens, take extra caution so that the lens is not tilled, nor does flaw exist at the lens-mount-screw part. Also check to confirm that no dirt nor other foreign object is put inside. Improper mounting might cause the parts to become locked.

5 1. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Model CS is an integrated (one-body) type B/W CCD camera employing a 1/3"VGA-compatible CCD which reads out all pixels data in 1/30 sec. 2. FEATURES (1) Ultra-compact & light weight camera head CS features its ultra-compact and light-weight camera head. This camera-head will free you from your integration-space-problem. In addition, it has an excellent shock & vibration resistance. (2) All pixel s data Read Out The CCD of CS reads out all pixel s data in approximately 1/30 sec. (3) High vertical resolution As all pixel s data are read out even in random trigger shutter mode (in 1/30 sec.), images with no deterioration in vertical resolution are gained. (4) Square grid pattern CCD Pixel s in CCD are aligned in square grid pattern. This makes it easier to perform computation correctly for image processing use. (5) External Sync. The camera is switched over to external synchronization operation automatically when external HD/VD signals are input. (6) Random trigger shutter function Random trigger shutter, which scans light-exposure in synchronization with external trigger signals, is build in. This function enables the camera to capture images at any given timing. 3. CONFIGURATION (1) Camera head 1 (2) Accessory Operation Manual 1 4.
