PRODUCT FEATURES
• High-resolution surveillance camera with a new built-in 1/3-type CCD. It delivers clear images at
a horizontal resolution of 700 TVL by using a new high-resolution CCD and image processing
technology.
• 12 V DC/24 V AC auto switching power supply.
(ZC-YX270P, ZC-NX270P, ZC-YXW270P, ZC-NXW270P)
• The new Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) processing technology offers the high dynamic range of
approximately 82dB, ensuring sharp images even if the pictures are shot in mixed indoor/outdoor
scenes with backlight.
• New Easy Focus function helps adjust the lens focus by edge enhancement focus level bar, and
screen view zoom-up / down.
• The Color Bar Output function enables the checking and adjustment of cable signal levels and
monitoring of the image quality.
• The Defog function provides high-quality images with automatically enhanced contrast in an
environment with poor visibility, such as fog, mist, rain, and snow.
• The 3D-Digital Noise Reduction (3D-DNR) function realizes low noise and high sensitivity.
• The OSD settings can be dynamically switched using the Profile Switching function. With these
functions, two preset profiles can be switched with each other when a Mode Selection terminal has
been controlled or Day/Night switching has been made. A combination of profiles can be selected
according to surveillance conditions.
• Day/Night function provides a high-sensitivity black and white image in low light conditions (e.g., night
time) by automatically switching the camera to black and white mode. The camera is automatically
switched to color mode in brighter light conditions (e.g., day time).
• This product offers additional functions such as Stabilizer, Privacy Mask, and Motion Detection
functions.
• Long-distance transmission is possible using UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) cable.
(Use a receiver produced by NVT) (ZC-YX270PU, ZC-YXW270PU)

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The installation should be made by a qualified service person and should conform to all local
codes.
For this device provided no power switch, the installation shall be carried out in accordance
with the rules of the country or the region in which the equipment is to be installed.
This symbol indicates that there is a possibility of death or damage to operator or others.
(1) Use only 24V AC power supply marked class 2 or +12V DC regulated power supply marked class 2.
(ZC-YX270P, ZC-NX270P, ZC-YXW270P, ZC-NXW270P)
(2) Use only with a 230 V AC power supply.
(ZC-YX270PE, ZC-NX270PE, ZC-YXW270PE, ZC-NXW270PE)
(3) Be sure to connect each lead to the appropriate terminal. Wrong connection may cause malfunction and/or
damage to the video camera.
(4) Never attempt to disassemble or modify the camera.
(5) If an abnormality should occur, immediately turn off the power and consult your dealer.
(6) To prevent fire or electric shock, do not expose this product to rain or moisture.
(7) Never remove the cover. This may cause fire or electric shock.
This symbol indicates that there is a possibility of injury or damage to equipment.
(1) Do not attempt to aim the camera at the sun or other extremely bright objects that cause smear to appear
irrespective of whether the camera is operating or not. This can damage the CCD (Charge Coupled
Device).
(2) Do not place the camera in the following locations.
1 Locations subject to extremely high or low temperatures.
(Operating temperature range: -10°C to +50°C {14°F to 122°F})
(Storage temperature range: -20°C to +60°C {-4°F to 140°F})
2 Locations subject to high levels of humidity and dust.
(Operating humidity range: max 85% {No condensation})
(Storage humidity range: max 95% {No condensation})
3 Locations where there are large amounts of water vapor and steam.
(3) Ensure the location selected is sufficiently strong enough to support the weight of the camera and is free
from vibration.
(4) When this camera is installed near equipment that emits a strong electromagnetic field, some irregularity
such as noise on the monitor screen may happen.
(5) Do not allow the camera to be subjected to strong impacts or shocks. The camera could be damaged by
improper handling or storage.
(6) When plugging the power cord into an electric outlet, be sure to leave enough space around the outlet so
that it will easy to unplug the power cord.
(ZC-YX270PE, ZC-NX270PE, ZC-YXW270PE, ZC-NXW270PE)
The CE Marking is a Directive Conformity mark of the European Union (EU).

8 B/W Fix terminal/Mode Selection terminal
This terminal can be used as a B/W Fix
terminal and also as a Mode Selection
terminal that enables the dynamic switching
of OSD settings. The mode selection setting
needs to be adjusted beforehand on the
OSD setting screen. The picture mode can
be fixed at B/W by shorting the two contacts
on the B/W Fix terminal. (See the back side
of the camera on page 3.) Fixing the picture
mode at B/W can prevent the picture from
having a phenomenon in which continuous
switching occurs between the color mode
and B/W mode under infrared illumination.
The Mode Selection terminal allows switching
between Profile 1/Profile 2 selected on the
OSD screen.
When using infrared illumination, make sure
to adjust the focal point of the lens in color
mode.
If excessive infrared illumination causes the
phenomenon above, set the picture mode at
B/W using the BW Fix terminal.
