Product description
This color video camera is the next generation in wide
dynamic range cameras. It uses the latest in UTC
Xposure image analysis technology.
The sensor architecture provides unequaled wide
dynamic range performance and improves how the
camera deals with low-light conditions.
Another revolutionary feature of the UltraView XP4 is
dual-temperature calibration. The UVC-XP4-HR is
calibrated at the factory, so the camera knows how to
adjust gain, white balance, and other settings based on
its environment. The camera is able to get the best
possible images in any situation and at any
temperatures within its operating specifications.
User guidelines
Use the following guidelines:
• Program as many camera settings as possible
before mounting the camera. Take appropriate
safety precautions while completing programming
after installation.
• Always use a 12 VDC or 24 VAC UL listed Class 2
power supply to power the camera.
Do not use the camera outside the temperature
range specifications: -10 to +50 °C (14 to 122 °F).
• If the light source where the camera is installed
experiences rapid, wide- variations in lighting, the
camera may not operate as intended.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electronic
shock, do not expose the camera to rain or moisture and
do not remove the cover or back.
Package contents
Check the package and contents for visible damage. If
any components are damaged or missing, do not
attempt to use the unit; contact the supplier immediately.
If the unit is returned, it must be shipped back in its
original packaging.

camera and the video in connector on a test or local
monitor.
2. Connect a coaxial cable terminated with BNC
connectors between the VIDEO OUT connector of
the camera and the video in connector on a monitor,
multiplexer, switcher, or other standard video
device.
Attach the lens
Refer to the instructions that came with the lens you
purchased for complete installation instructions of that
lens. The camera automatically detects the type of lens
used.
Note: For optimal performance, use an autoiris lens.
To install most lenses, see 1. If you are using a C-
mount lens, screw on the provided C-mount adapter.
2. Screw your customer-supplied lens onto the
camera.
3. If you are using an autoiris lens, insert the autoiris
lens plug into the autoiris lens connector.
Figure 1 below and do the following:
1. If you are using a C-mount lens, screw on the
provided C-mount adapter.
2. Screw your customer-supplied lens onto the
camera.
3. If you are using an autoiris lens, insert the autoiris
lens plug into the autoiris lens connector.

Connect power
Caution: Use direct plug-in UL listed power supplies
marked Class 2 or LPS (limited power source) of the
required output rating as listed on the unit.
1. With a screwdriver, loosen the GND and
~AC24V/DC12V terminal screws on the terminal
block.
2. Connect a universal 12 VDC, 24 VAC power supply
to the terminal block.
Note: The terminal block is not polarity- sensitive.
Either power lead can be connected to either
terminal connector. There is no need for an isolated
ground wire. The two power terminals can accept
any polarity and any combination of power that
equals 12 VDC or 24 VDC.
3. Retighten the terminal screws until snug, ensuring
that the power leads are secure.
4. Supply power to the unit by plugging the power
supply into a proper source.
Note: The power LED illuminates to show that the
camera is receiving power. If it does not illuminate,
check the terminal block connections and the power
source
Mount the camera
To mount the camera, attach the camera to the
mounting surface using the appropriate fasteners.
Connect the monitor
Program the cameras by attaching a standard video
monitor to the system.
To connect the monitor, do the following:
1. Plug the monitor output cable to the video monitor
output connector.
2. Connect the BNC cable to the video monitor.

priority to rendering the highlights in the
scene.
Indoor
This preset supports 16 bits of dynamic range

the scene. It is primarily used for typical indoor
scenes and when you want to see backlit
objects clearly in front of bright backgrounds
(as in a building lobby, for example).
Outdoor
This preset offers the highest dynamic range
of 17 bits and gives priority to rendering the
highlights in the scene. This mode produces
flatter images than modes with lower dynamic
range.
