CONTROLS AND SWITCHES Refer to the figure below for the various adjustments, controls and functions selectable from the 6pin DIP-switch switches. LL / INT This switch is used to select the synchronization mode of the camera. When the camera is connected to an AC supply, the Line-lock (LL) mode can be used. This locks the camera's frame rate to the mains frequency so that each camera in the system can be triggered at the same point on the supply's AC-cycle. See also Line Lock Phase Adjustment Potentiometer. The default setting is INT. AGC and TURBO The Automatic Gain Control feature can improve picture quality when the level of scene illumination is low. Select TURBO for most applications. Setting to AGC will remove noise from the image, which will also limit the sensitivity of the camera. BLC / ON Switch to ON to enable the BackLight Compensation. This feature can be used to eliminate the effect of an area of strong background lighting in a scene. If strong background lighting, such as a window, exists in a scene, the camera will try to compensate for it by reducing the overall exposure. This would mean that the areas surrounding the window would become too dark. The default setting is off (BLC). BLC ON will only function with a manual iris lens when the Electronic Iris feature is switched on. For direct drive and video drive lenses, BLC ON will still function even though the Electronic Iris feature is switched off. 6

Auto / Manual Lens Type Selection ( Not available for Wide Dynamic Camera ) When set to AUTO the camera will automatically detect which type of lens is attached and configure itself accordingly. Plugging a DC lens into the side connector will enable DD lens drive. Connecting a Video Iris lens to the connector on the rear will select Video Iris drive. No connection will default to AES mode. AUTO is the default setting. WD ON / Off AI / AES Mode Selection This switch operates when Auto / Man is set to MAN mode. Setting to AES forces Electronic Iris mode, compensates for excessive light levels by automatically adjusting the shutter speed of the camera. AI will force DD or Video Iris mode, depending which type of lens is connected. CK / ON Chroma Killer. When set to on and AGC is in TURBO mode, chroma information is suppressed within the image in low light. The resulting monochrome image produces a higher resolution image by removing chroma noise contained in the image. This also permits more efficient recording with a DVR. LINE LOCK PHASE ADJUSTMENT POTENTIOMETER When the camera is in line-lock mode it is possible to adjust the point on the AC cycle at which the camera triggers. This facility is provided so that cameras that are connected to different mains phases may still be synchronized. The line lock phase adjustment potentiometer allows the line lock phase trigger point to be adjusted by :1:120. Rotating the potentiometer clockwise advances the trigger point and turning it anticlockwise retards the trigger point. The factory default setting is the zero crossing point. If all cameras in a system are on the same mains phase then no line lock phase adjustment should be made-see also Synchronization Selection (LL/INT). ALC LEVEL ADJUSTMENT POTENTIOMETER The DD lens level is controlled by this potentiometer. The video output signal is converted into a DC voltage by circuitry within the camera. The potentiometer sets a reference voltage against which this derived DC voltage is compared. If the DC voltage is less than the reference level, the lens iris opening is increased. If the DC voltage is greater than the reference level, the lens iris opening is decreased. This control loop attempts to continually match the DC voltage derived from the video signal, to the reference voltage set by the potentiometer. This feature allows the installer to set the required video output amplitude (e.g. 1Vpp) that the lens should strive to maintain. 7

POWER LED ON/OFF In normal operation, the LED on the rear panel of the camera is illuminated when power is connected to the camera. COMPOSITE VIDEO OUTPUT BNC CONNECTOR Connect a video coaxial cable terminated with a 75 Ohm BNC connector to the BNC socket marked VIDEO OUT. POWER SUPPLY Cameras are available in AC mains, and AC and DC low voltage types. The voltage required to operate the camera is clearly marked on the rear panel of the camera. Low voltage cameras must be powered from a UL listed class 2 power supply. The typical power consumption of a camera is less than 5 Watts. Mains power supply: Cameras that are intended to operate directly from the mains supply are fitted with a detachable power supply cord. The operating voltage is 100~250VAC Low Voltage power supply: These cameras are fitted with an automatic switching power supply that will operate between 11-28 VDC and 20-29 VAC. Connections are indicated above the terminals on the rear panel of the camera. The power supply must be a UL listed class 2 type. LENS SELECTION Suitable lens types are C and CS mount in fixed iris, manual iris, auto iris or direct drive versions. Cameras are factory set for CS mount lenses. If using a C mount lens, rotate the back focus adjustment mechanism fully clockwise (when viewed from the front of the camera) before fitting the lens, see Back Focus Adjustment. BACK FOCUS ADJUSTMENT Back Focus Adjustment Lock Screw. There is a back focus adjustment accessible at front of the camera housing, that is used to adjust the back focal length or coarse picture focus. The range of adjustment allows both C and CS mount lenses to be used without the need for a spacer ring. To use the back focus mechanism: Figure 1 1. Unlock the back focus mechanism using the Back Focus adjustment lock screw (figure 1). 2. Rotate the back focus adjustment ring as required. When viewed from the front of the camera, clockwise adjustment moves the CCD sensor away from the back of the lens; counter clockwise adjustment moves the CCD sensor towards the back of the lens 3. Lock the back focus mechanism. 8

Installing Fixed IRIS lenses & Manual Iris lenses 1. Turn the back focus adjustment ring fully clockwise (when viewed from the front -see Back Focus Adjustment), if using a C-mount lens. 2. Fit the lens to the camera. 3. Ensure the Electronic Iris (EI) and Automatic Gain Control (AGC) features are both turned ON (AUTO or MAN & AES and TURBO). 4. If the lens has an IRIS, open this fully. 5. If the lens has a focusing ring fitted, set it to infinity (00) and then adjust the back focus. 6. If the lens has an IRIS, close accordingly if a greater depth of field is required. Installing Direct (OR D.C.) Drive lenses 1. Turn the back focus adjustment ring fully clockwise (when viewed from the front) if fitting a C-mount lens. 2. Fit the lens to the camera and connect it according to the diagram below. Pin 4 Pin 2 PIN # DC Drive Pin 1 Damp - Pin 2 Damp + Pin 3 Drive + Pin 3 Pin 1 Pin 4 Drive - WARNING The maximum load for this type of lens must not exceed 25mA. 3. Set the lens type selector switch to AUTO (or MAN and AI). 4. Set the AGC switch to AGC. 5. If the lens has a focusing ring fitted, set it to infinity (00) and then adjust the back focus. 6. With typical scene illumination, set the ALC Level adjustment potentiometer for the correct exposure. This can be achieved either visually or more accurately by using an oscilloscope or level meter to set the output of the camera to 1 V peak-peak. 7. Ensure the Automatic Gain Control feature is turned to TURBO. Installing Video Drive Lenses 1. Turn the back focus adjustment ring fully clockwise (when viewed from the front) if fitting a C-mount lens. 2. Fit the lens to the camera and connect it according to the diagram below. GND +12V VIDEO VIDEO LEVEL WARNING The maximum load for this type of lens must not exceed 50mA. 9

3. Set the lens type selector switch to AUTO (or MAN and AI). 4. Set the AGC switch to AGC. 5. If the lens has a focusing ring fitted, set it to infinity (00) and then adjust the back focus. 6. With typical scene illumination, set the Lens Level adjustment potentiometer on the lens for the correct exposure. This can be achieved either visually or more accurately by using an oscilloscope or level meter to set the output of the camera to 1 V peak-peak. If the scene lighting conditions are extremely uneven, it may be necessary to adjust the lens's Peak Average potentiometer. Refer to the lens instructions. 7. Ensure the Automatic Gain Control feature is switched to TURBO. CAMERA MOUNTING Mounting points are provided on the top and bottom of the camera and are used to mount the camera on a bracket or tripod. They are designed to accept standard photographic mounting bolts (1/4" BSW or 20 UNC). The mounting bracket must be capable of supporting the weight of the camera and its lens. In cases where the lens is substantially heavier than the camera, it is better to use the mounting point on the lens itself. NOTE: Ensure that any fixings used to mount the bracket are adequate to support the load of the camera and bracket on the surface to which the bracket is fixed. 10
