1. Scope of Application
This is to describe VPC-HD10, analog color HD (720P) board camera assembly.
All specifications contained herein are subject to change without prior notice.
Reproduction in whole or in part is prohibited.
2. Handling Precautions
The camera assembly must not be used for any nuclear equipments or aerospace equipments with which
mechanical failure or malfunction could result in serious bodily injury or loss of human life. Our warranty
does not apply to damages or defects caused by irregular and/or abnormal use of the product.
Please observe all warnings and cautions stated below.
Our warranty does not apply to damages or malfunctions caused by neglecting these precautions.
zDo not directly touch the board camera while camera is in operation. The board camera can be very hot
and you may burn yourself.
zDo not apply excessive voltage. (Use only the specified voltage.) Unstable or improper power supply
voltage may cause damages or malfunction of the camera.
zDo not directly touch the optical surface. CMOS image sensor is fragile.
zDo not use or store the camera assembly in the dusty or humid places.
zDo not apply excessive force or static electricity that could damage the camera assembly.
zIn some cases, hunting may occur when using electric iris, depending on the object to shoot.
zIn some cases, color may change under fluorescent lamp when using electric iris.
zDo not shoot direct images that are extremely bright (e.g., light source, sun, etc). When the camera is
not in use, please put the protection cap on.
zFollow the instructions in Chapter 7, “External Connector Pin Assignment” for connecting the camera.
Improper connection may cause damages not only to the camera but also to the connected devices.
In case of abnormal operation, contact the distributor from whom you purchased the product.

8. Camera Operating Instructions
There are 3 different operating methods, operating with OSD menu, operating without OSD menu, and operating
via PC with dedicated remote control cable connected to the remote control terminals. Depending on its
operating methods, selectable camera settings are different. Please refer to the selectable settings by each
operational method as below.
8.1. Switch Operation without OSD Menu
Operational Functions
EZOOM, PAN, TILT, and Video Format Selection
EZOOM Operation
EZOOM can be operated with [UP] KEY and [DOWN] KEY.
With [DOWN] KEY, it goes to TELE side, and with [UP] KEY, it goes to WIDE side.
Except when EZOOM is x1.00, it goes to EZOOM→PAN→TILT→EZOOM every time when
[BACK] KEY is pushed. PAN and TILT values can be set as well.
* When EZOOM is x1.00, PAN and TILT will automatically go back to the center of the image.
Display Format Selection
Video format can be changed as follows, pushing [ENTER] KEY while pushing [BACK] KEY.
720p/60 Y/PbPr →720p/59.94 Y/PbPr →720p/50 Y/Pb/Pr →
720p/60 RGB →720p/59.94 RGB →720p/50 RGB →720p/60 Y/Pb/Pr
* The selected settings with operations explained the above can not be saved as they are.
To save those settings, EXIT→SAVE shall be done by OSD displayed operation.
* Initial setting is 720p/59.94 Y/Pb/Pr.
8.2. PC Operation via RS232C
Camera can be controlled via a PC using camera control software, with dedicated remote control cable (RE-300)
connected to the remote control terminal.
8.3. Switch Operation with OSD Menu
[ENTER] KEY: To enter into the menu with pushing this button for long.
In the menu, this button works to go to the next menu, and works as [→] KEY.
[BACK] KEY: In the menu, this button works to go back to the prior menu, and works as [←] KEY.
[UP] KEY: To select items in the menu.
When operating volume type menu, this button makes the value to ＋direction.
[DOWN] KEY: To select items in the menu.
When operating volume type menu, this button makes the value to −direction.
