Connecting to a Power Supply
Getting Started
Cameras are available in two types, AC mains and
AC/DC low voltage. Your camera type is clearly labeled
on the rear panel.
Mains Power Supply: This camera operates directly
from the mains supply come with a detachable power
supply cord. The operating voltage is 100~250VAC
Low Voltage Power Supply: This camera operates
between 11~28 VDC and 20-29VAC. Connections are
indicated above the terminals on the rear panel of the
NOTE: The typical power consumption of a camera
is less than 5 Watts.
The power LED on the rear panel is lit when the camera
is connected to a power source.
Connecting to a TV / Video
Connect a video coaxial cable terminated with a 75 Ohm
BNC connector to the BNC socket labeled VIDEO OUT.
Connect the other end of the cable to the VIDEO IN
socket of your video or television equipment.
Mounting Your Camera
Your camera can be mounted from the top or bottom,
either on a bracket or tripod. The mounting points accept
standard photographic mounting bolts (1/4" BSW or 20
UNC).
The mounting bracket must be capable of supporting
the camera and the lens.
Should the lens be substantially heavier than the camera,
it is recommended to use the mounting point on the lens
itself.
NOTE: Ensure the bracket hardware and mounting
surface can support the load of the camera and
bracket.
Installing Lenses
Before installing a lens, you must first remove the lens
cover from the camera.

Installing a Direct (DC) Drive Lens
1. If using a C-mount lens, turn the back focus adjustment
fully counter-clockwise with the lens facing towards you
(see Setting the Focus).
2. Fit and connect the lens to the camera according to the
following pin assignments.
3. Set the lens type selector switch to AUTO (or MAN
and AI/AES set to AI).
4. Set the AGC switch to AGC.
5. If a focus ring is fitted to the lens, set it to infinity (∞)
and then adjust the back focus.
6. With typical scene illumination, set the ALC Level
adjustment potentiometer to the correct exposure.
This can be achieved manually or by using and
oscilloscope or level meter to set the output of the
camera to 1 V peak-peak.
7. Ensure the Automatic Gain Control switch is set to
TURBO.
CAUTION: The maximum load for this type of lens
must not exceed 25mA.

Setting the Focus
The picture focus is adjusted using the back focus
adjustment mechanism which is located on the front of the
camera,above and below the lens mount. The range of
adjustment allows both C and CS mount lenses to be used
without a spacer ring.
Use the following procedure to adjust the focus:
1. Unscrew the back focus adjustment lock screw.
2. Turn the focus adjustment counter-clockwise (if facing
the lens) to move the CCD sensor away from the back
of the lens, or clockwise to move the CCD sensor
towards the back of the lens.
3. Tighten the lock screw to fix the focus adjustment in
place.
Installing Fixed and Manual Lenses
1. If using a C-mount lens, turn the back focus adjustment
fully counter-clockwise with the lens facing towards you
(see Setting the Focus).
2. Screw the lens on to the camera.
3. Ensure the electronic iris is enabled: AUTO/MAN set to
AUTO or AUTO/MAN set to MAN AI-AES set to AES
4. Ensure that the AGC control is set to TURBO
5. If the lens has an iris, open this fully.
6. If the lens has a focusing ring fitted, set it to infinity (∞)
and then adjust the back focus.
6. If the lens has an iris, close according to the required
depth of field.
Installing a Video Drive Lens
CAUTION: The maximum load for this type of lens
must not exceed 50mA.

adjustment potentiometer to the correct exposure.
This can be achieved manually or by using an
oscilloscope or level meter to set the output of the
camera to 1 V peak-peak.
If lighting conditions are very uneven, it may be
necessary to adjust the lens Peak/Average
potentiometer.
6. Ensure the Automatic Gain Control switch is set to
TURBO.
VIDEO LENS
Controls and Switches
LL / INT
Selects the camera's synchronization mode. When the
camera is connected to an AC power supply, the Line
Lock (LL) mode can be used.
AGC / TURBO
The Automatic Gain Control feature can improve picture
quality in low lighting conditions. Select TURBO for most
applications. Setting to AGC will remove 'noise' from the
image, but it will also limit the camera's sensitivity.
BLC / ON
The Backlight Compensation feature eliminates the effect
of strong background lighting, maintaining the correct
exposure. Switch to ON to activate. When switched to
BLC, the feature is off.
AUTO / MAN
The AUTO feature automatically detects the type of lens
attached to the camera. Plugging a DC lens into the side
connector will enable DD lens mode. Connecting a video
lens to the rear connectors wil enable Video Drive lens
mode. If no lens connections are made the the camera
will assume a manual or fixed ir
The MAN setting is provided as a manual overide in the
case that a lens is incorrectly detected. If MAN is selected
the AI/AES switch must as also be set for the appropriate
lens type - see below.
AI/ AES
This feature is only active when AUTO/MAN is set to
MAN.
Selecting AI enables DD or Video Drive mode, depending
on the type of lens connected.
Selecting AES enables Electronic Iris mode, which
compensates for excessive light levels by automatically
adjusting the camera shutter speed. This mode should
only be used with fixed or manual iris lenses.
CK / ON
The CK (Chroma Killer) mode can be activated when
AGC is in TURBO mode, and suppresses chroma
information within the image in low light, producing a
monochrome image. Switch to ON to activate.

V-Phase
When the camera is connected to analogue display
equipment that is connected to a different mains supply
phase, picture roll may be experienced.
The V-Phase potentiometer can used to reduce this
effect by varying the field sync trigger point.
This feature is only active when the camera is connected
to an AC supply and the LL/INT switchis set to LL. The
control will give 0~270º of adjustment
