6.3 Power supply
Before starting installation, ensure that the mains voltage and the rated voltage on the camera are
identical.
TVHD40000
(1) Video signal (BNC)
(2) Power supply
12 VDC (5.5 x 2.1 mm)
The camera is equipped with a 12 VDC power supply. Please observe the polarity when connecting
it. It should be connected by means of a mains adapter (circular connector, 5.5 mm x 2.1 mm).
6.4 Connection the video cable
In order to transmit the video signal from the HD-SDI camera to an HD-SDI converter/monitor or
HD-SDI recorder, you have to connect a type RG6 or RG59 coaxial cable with a BNC plug (male) to
the "Video-OUT" connection. The cable length to the next device may not exceed 80 metres (RG59)
/ 150 metres (RG6). You can use appropriate HD-SDI repeaters to increase the range.
6.5 Aligning the camera
To align the camera, use the spanner provided to loosen the fixing nut on the base plate of the
camera mount. To do this, turn the fixing screw in anti-clockwise direction.
You can now align the camera along 3 axes.
When aligning the camera, make sure to fasten the
fixing nut using the wrench provided.
