Dear customer,
The following safety information and hazard notes are not only intended to protect your health, but
also to protect the device from damage. Please read the following points carefully:
xThere are no components inside the product that require servicing by the operator. Opening or
dismantling the product invalidates the CE certification and guarantee claims / warranty.
xThe product can be damaged if it is dropped, even from a low height.
Avoid the following adverse conditions during operation:
xMoisture or excess humidity
xExtreme heat or cold
xDirect sunlight
xDust or flammable gases, vapors, or solvents
xStrong vibrations
xStrong magnetic fields (e.g. next to machines or loudspeakers)
xThe camera must not be directed toward the sun when the aperture is open.
This can destroy the sensor.
xThe camera must not be installed on unstable surfaces
General safety information:
xDo not leave packaging material lying around. Plastic bags, sheeting, polystyrene packaging, etc.,
can pose a danger to children if played with.
xThe surveillance camera contains small parts which could be swallowed, and should be kept out of
reach of children for safety reasons.
xDo not insert any objects into the device through the openings.
xOnly use replacement devices and accessories that are approved by the manufacturer. Do not
connect any non-compatible products.
xPlease pay attention to the safety information and operating instructions for the other connected
devices.
xCheck the device for damage before commissioning. Do not put the device into operation if you detect
any damage.
xAdhere to the operating voltage limits specified in the technical data. Higher voltages could destroy
the device and pose a health risk (electric shock).
When installing the device in an existing video surveillance system, ensure that all devices are
disconnected from the mains power supply and low-voltage circuit.
If in doubt, have a specialist technician carry out assembly, installation and connection of the
device. Improper or unprofessional work on the power supply system or domestic installation
puts both you and other persons at risk.
Connect the installations so that the power supply circuit and low-voltage circuit always run
separately from each other. They should not be connected at any point or be able to become
connected as a result of a malfunction.

5.2 Unpacking the device
Handle the device with extreme care when unpacking it.
If the original packaging has been damaged, inspect the device. If the device shows signs
of damage, then return it in the original packaging and contact the delivery service.
6. Installation
6.1 Power supply
Before starting installation, ensure that the power supply system voltage and the rated voltage of
the camera are identical.
TVHD50000 TVHD50500
(1) TVHD50000 is equipped with a 12 V DC/24 V AC power supply. If you use a DC power
supply, the polarity is not important.
In order to connect a plug-in power supply unit (DC connection 5.5 mm x 2.1 mm) to the
camera, the adapter included with the camera must first be installed. The pins are inserted
and the cable ends are inserted into the clamps.
(2) TVHD50500 is equipped with a 110 - 240 V AC power supply (pre-installed cable).

6.2 Mounting a lens
The camera is intended for use with CS-mount lenses. A C-mount lens can be
mounted using the lens adapter ring included.
Before mounting a C-mount lens, ensure that the adapter ring is in place on the
camera.
Otherwise, the CMOS image sensor can be damaged.
For lenses with a DC aperture, the connection for the lens cable is located on the
right side of the camera. The camera automatically detects the lens type. For optimal
image quality, a lens with a DC light adjustment aperture is recommended.
The back focus setting on the camera can also be used to precisely set the focus. A
fixing screw for the back focus ring is located on the side of the camera.
6.3 Installing the video cable
In order to transmit the video signal from the HD-SDI camera to an HD-SDI converter, monitor or
recorder, an RG6 coaxial cable of type RG59 with BNC plug (male) must be connected to the
“Video OUT” connection. The cable length to the next device may not exceed 80 meters (RG59) or
150 meters (RG6). To increase the range, you can install suitable signal HD-SDI repeaters.
6.4 Installing the camera
For installation, the included base can be attached to the upper or lower side of the camera. The
plate is then aligned to the pre-defined screw openings and fastened with the screws provided.
IMPORTANT!
The camera must be disconnected from the power supply during installation.
CAUTION!
The camera must not be directed toward the sun when the aperture is open as this
can destroy the CCD element.
