Do not keep the camera under the following conditions.
・ In wet, moist, high humidity or dusty place
・ Under direct sunlight
・ In extreme high or low temperature place
・ Near an object that releases a strong magnetic or electric filed
・ Place with strong vibrations
 Apply the power that satisfies the specified in specifications for the camera.
 The defective pixels may appear due to the sensor characteristics.

camera due to PC configuration or performance.
(*3) The cooling function on camera does not operate due to it’s not enough power supply when using with
USB bus power only.
Please supply external power through power/IO connector.
(*4) The camera does not operate only external power through power/IO connector.
It is necessary to provide USB bus power to camera.
* When the strong light is incident on extensive area of the image sensor of camera, the image could be become
dark due to characteristics of image sensor on this camera.
Please adjust incident light with adjusting lens iris or other way to avoid strong light is not incident on the image
sensor of camera.

(*1) When the temperature sensor of camera (DeviceTemperatureSelector = Sensor) exceeding +15 deg. C, white spots
and/or noise are increasing. Recommend using camera under less than +37 deg. C environmental temperature or camera
housing temperature (top plate) shall not exceed +50 deg. C.
Please ensure the camera is installed with the appropriate heat dissipation. If camera has a mounted lens and a tripod with
an aluminum plate, this could decrease the camera housing temperature for heat dissipation. When the internal
temperature sensor (DeviceTemperatureSelector = Sensor) on the camera shows less than +34 deg. C, the camera
housing temperature (top plate) will be less than +70 deg. C.
Taking these steps will maintain heat rating of electronic components of camera.
