Ultra High Resolution Color Camera
Excellent Sensitivity
The built-in high sensitivity COLOR CCD
enable a clear image even in 0.15Luxor lower
illumination.
Ultra High Resolution
By adopting a diagonal 6mm(1/3") 410,000 (NTSC)
pixel, 470,000(PAL) pixel SONY CCD,
the camera produces clear picture quality with a
horizontal resolution of 600 TV lines for color.
Motion Detection
Since the camera detects motion without any
additional external sensor, you can monitor
activity more efficient.
DIS (Digital Image Stabilizer)
The DIS function compensates for any camera
movement, to produce more stable pictures.
DNR3 (Super Noise Reduction)
The high-performance W-V DSP chip effectively
removes low-light gain noise and afterimage to
provide clear images even in dark environments.
SSDR (Super Dynamic Range)
For images with high contrast between bright
and dark spots from difficult lighting conditions
such as backlighting, this camera selectively
illuminates darker spots while retaining the
same light level for brighter spots to even out the
overall brightness.
■Features Warning ■
The camera requires periodic inspection.
Contact an authorised technician to carry out the inspection.
Stop using your camera when you find it malfunctioning.
If the camera emits smoke or is unusually hot for a long period,
a fire may be caused.

Day & Night
The camera identifies whether it is day or night
and automatically switches to the appropriate
mode, depending on its environment. By day,
the camera switches to color mode in order to
maintain optimal color. At night, it switches to
B/W mode so as to obtain better picture definition.

Using a C/CS mount lens
Before installing a lens, identify whether the lens to be installed is a C-Mount
or CS-Mount. This camera is set for a CS-Mount Lens by default. To install a
C-Mount Lens, a simple modification is required.
•When Using a CS Mount Lens
Remove the protective cover from the front of this product and turn the
CS-Mount Lens clockwise to install it. Focus the camera using the
CS-Mount Lens and Back Focus controls.
•Use a lens threaded as shown in the following figure. If the dimensions
of the thread are incorrect the camera could be damaged, or the lens
may not get installed firmly enough.
•
If the lens is too heavy the camera becomes unbalanced, which may
cause problems. Use a lens weighing less than 450g.
•When adjusting the Automatic Level Control (ALC) of an Auto Iris Lens,
use Av mode if available. If Pk mode is used the picture brightness
may change continuously.

Since power specifications differ depending on the model, make sure to check
your model name and specifications before connecting power.
You can connect power as shown in the following figure.
•
Check the standard power requirement before connecting to power.
Connecting to Power
For AC / DC power
When the resistance value of copper wire is at [20˚C(68˚F)]
•As shown in the table above, voltage decreases as the wire gets longer.
Therefore use of an excessively long adaptor output line for connection to
the camera may affect the performance of the camera.
※Standard voltage for camera operation : DC 12V±10%, AC 24V±10%

•When you use a DC lens, set the shutter mode to A.FLK if color rolling occurs.
•When the SHUTTER is set to MANUAL or A.FLK mode, SENS-UP will be disabled.
•When the SHUTTER is set to ESC after selecting the Internal Synchronization
Type, the picture may become unstable if the camera faces a bright fluorescent
light. Therefore, take care when choosing the installation position.
● SHUTTER : You can select either auto or manual shutter.
- A.FLK : Select this when you experience picture flicker, which can
happen when there is a clash with the frequency of the installed lighting.
- ESC : Select this to control the shutter speed automatically. If ESC is
selected, the shutter speed is automatically controlled depending
on the ambient illumination of the subject.
-
MANUAL : You can control shutter speed manually. (1/60 ~ 1/120,000)
● AGC(AUTO GAIN CONTROL) : The higher the gain level, the brighter
the screen - but the higher the noise.
- OFF : Deactivates the AGC function.
- LOW : Allows automatic gain control from 5.3dB to 32dB.
- HIGH : Allows automatic gain control from 5.3dB to 37dB.
● SENS-UP : When it is night or dark, the camera automatically detects
the light level and maintains a clear picture if this mode is activated.
- OFF : Deactivates the SENS-UP function.
- AUTO : Activates the SENS-UP function.
Note
•
If you press the SET button in 'AUTO' mode, You can adjust brightness
by increasing or decreasing the shutter speed. (X2~X512)
•Note that the higher the zoom level, the brighter the screen, but the
more likely it is that an after-image will appear.
