JVC’s TK-C1460U is the 24-hour surveillance camera with a truly IR shooting capability. It captures
perfect color pictures in all lighting conditions—when brilliant sunlight lights up subjects and casts
dark shadows that cannot be penetrated by a conventional camera, or when the lights fades to a mere
0.025 lux and subjects are barely visible to the naked eye. Then, in total darkness, the rugged and
reliable TK-C1460U automatically switches over to B&W shooting mode and snaps on, to provide
around-the-clock surveillance capability. Zoom lens and motion detector complete the ideal security
package, which can be configured for individual applications or integrated into a multi-camera system.
1/3-inch Interline Transfer (IT) CCD with
Super LoLux 0.4 lux at color (High
Quality)
JVC’s new-generation 1/3-inch IT CCD
(768 (H) x 494 (V), supported by JVC’s
exclusive Super LoLux technology, the
TK-C1460U can shoot in low ambient
light to 0.4 lux (F1.2, 25%, AGC 20dB)
and at 0.0125 lux (32X slow shutter)
minimum illumination.
Infrared Shooting
The TK-C1460U has an IR shooting
capability. When it is switched to B&W
on the camera can shoot in complete
darkness and gather crisp black and
white images. The infrared illumination
mode can be set either through the
camera’s menu or remotely.
Caution: Attach a lens with an IR capability when
using the IR lamp.
Auto/Manual Color/B&W Switching
When darkness falls, the TK-C1460U
automatically switches from color to
B&W shooting modes. So users can
capture clear images 24 hours a day.
Switching can be selected by three
different signal levels for Auto or Manual
by external trigger.
Extended Dynamic Range
The camera’s innovative Digital Signal
Processor (DSP) features Extended
Dynamic Range (ExDR), which lets users
capture images at a location with both
dark and bright areas. Bright portions in
the shooting area are shot with a high-
speed shutter exposure, while dark
portions are shot with normal exposure.
Both images are read and synthesized to
create a single image that includes
distinguishable bright and dark portions.
So no detail is lost.
RS-422A/RS-485 Terminals
RS-422A/RS-485 Terminals ensure
multi-system remote control
compatibility.
Motion Detector
A built-in programmable motion detector
can detect movement inside the area
covered by the camera and send out an
alarm signal.
Full Genlock
INT/EXT (Full Genlock) expands possible
applications using BB or VBS (BNC)
sync input connectors.
White Balance
White balance modes—ATW and AWC
(manual with paint)—ensure optimum
white balance under a wide range of
color temperatures.

Switching Color B&W [Auto/Manual Selectable]
TK-C1460U is provided with three switching modes (two-automatic and one-manual mode)
between color and B&W for 24-hour unattended surveillance.
Three switching modes are available for various installation conditions
such as different lighting conditions.
Camera ID
The TK-C1460U features a built-in
camera ID system for use when building
a multi-camera surveillance system.
Automatic Electronic Shutter (AES)
The powerful AES of the TK-C1460U
increases possible applications with
shutter speeds ranging from
1/60~1/10,000 second, ensuring correct
exposure under any lighting conditions.
In auto mode the camera adjusts shutter
speed according to ambient light.
Manual setting ensures blur-free
shooting of fast-moving objects.
Video Out/Y/C Output Connectors
The TK-C1460U comes with connectors
for composite video out signals, BB or
VBS (BNC) sync input, VBS (BNC
output, as well as Y/C (S-terminal, 4-pin)
output.
Simple Menu-driven Operation
A simple menu-driven operation lets
users set parameters including IRIS level,
ENHANCE level, AGC level, ATW/AWC,
H.PHASE/SC phase, AGC ON/OFF, and
L.L. phase.
Backlight Compensation
The Backlight Compensation function
assures clear reproduction of foreground
subjects with a sense of depth against
strong back-light. Four fixed and two
editable, metered areas are available.
Accepts C/CS Mount IR-Compatible
Lenses
The TK-C1460U is C/CS-mount lens
compatible, which allows a wide array of
infrared-compatible lens to be mounted.
AC 24V/DC 12V Power Supply
The TK-C1460U can be powered by AC
24 V( 50 Hz/60 Hz)/DC 12 V (550 mA)
sources.
Notes: It is recommended to adjust the backfocus setting for proper operation, when an infrared compatible lens is used in darkness with infrared illumination.
It is recommended to use manual switching from B&W infrared to color shooting when there is a sudden change in lighting conditions; for example,
momentary direct exposure to a car’s headlamps. It is also recommended to use an external trigger when using the B&W mode.
Due to optical hysteresis, the conditions from color to B&W and from B&W to color are different.
For AUX terminal, B&W if AUX input is closed, color if open.
