SA l965 magnitude to constitute a risk of elec-
trie shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an
equilateral triangle is intended to alert
the user to the presence of important
operating and maintenance (servicing)
instructions in the literature accompa¬
nying the appliance.
Warning:

PREFACE
FEATURES
Panasonic’s WV-BP100 series cameras introduce a new
level of high picture quality through the use of a 1/3
inch interline transfer CCD having 512 horizontal pixels
(picture elements). High performance-to-cost ratio is
achieved through the use of newly developed Sync IC's
and ability to shoot indoor scenes with a fixed iris lens
by use of Electronic Light Control (ELC) function.
Minimum illumination of 0.03 footcandle (0.3 lux) at
FI.4 and Signal-to-noise ratio of 46 dB by employing
a 1/3 inch interline transfer CCD image sensor with
512(H) X 492 (V) pixels.
380 lines of horizontal resolution,
Either optional standard C-mount or Special
C-mount (CS-mount) auto iris control lens can be
used with.
Selectable auto iris control signal for the lens either
a video signal or DC control signal.
Line-locked Sync or switchable Multiplexed Vertical
Drive (VD2) automatically.
Ability to shoot indoor scenes with fixed iris lens by
use of Electronic Light Control (ELC) function.

PRECAUTIONS
Do not attempt to disassemble the camera.
To prevent electric shock, do not remove screws or
cover. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
Handle the camera with care.
Do not abuse the camera. Avoid striking or shaking
it. The camera could be damaged by improper
handling or storage.
Do not expose the camera to rain or moisture, or
try to operate it in wet areas.
Do take immediate action if ever the camera do
becomes wet. Turn power off and refer servicing to
qualified service personnel. Moisture can damage
the camera and also create the danger of electric
shock.
• Never face the camera toward the sun.
Whether the camera is in use or not, never face it
toward the sun. Do use caution when operating the
camera in the vicinity of spot lights or other bright
lights and light reflecting objects.
• Do not operate the camera beyond its
temperature, humidity or power source ratings.
Do not use the camera in an extreme environment
where high temperature or high humidity exist. Use
the camera under conditions where temperatures
are within -22°F - 122°F (-30°C - +50°C), and
humidity is below 90%. The input power source is
120V AC 60 Hz for WV-BP100 or 24V AC 60 Hz for
WV-BP104.
Caution:
To prevent fire or shock hazard, the UL listed wire
VW-1, style 1007 should be used for the cable for
AC 24V Input Terminal.

(1) Auto Iris Lens Connector
This 4-pin female connector supplies the power and
either video signal or DC control signal to the auto
iris lens.
A 4-pin male connector, which can be mated with
the camera’s female connector, is supplied as a
standard accessory (Part No. YFE4191J100).
This male connector can be installed on lenses
which have incompatible type connector.
See page 13 for installation details.
.(2) Camera Mounting Screw Hole
- This threaded hole (1/4" - 20) is used to mount the
camera onto a mounting bracket or tripod.
(3) F lange-back Adjusting Ring
This ring is used to adjust the back focal length
or picture focus by rotating this ring to clockwise
for C-mount lens or counterclockwise for special
C-mount (CS-mount) lens.
Cautions:
1. Always set this ring to fully clockwise before
mounting the lens.
2. Do not turn this ring too much to
counterclockwise when the C-mount lens is
mounted as this could damage the inner glass
and CCD image sensor.
(4) Lens (Option)
See pages 9, 10, 11 and 12 for details on lens
selection.
(5) Lens Selection Switch (AUTO IRIS, DC/VIDEO)
This switch is used to select the supplied auto iris
control signal to the lens from the Auto iris lens
Connector (1).
DC:
Choose this position when the auto iris
control lens requiring DC control signal
’such as WV-LA2.8, WV-LA4R5G3, WV-LA6B2,
WV-LA9C3, WV-LA12B2, WV-LA18, WV-LA36,
WV-LA4510, WV-LA608, WV-LA1208,
WV-LZ81/6A, WV-LZ81/10, WV-LZ83/6, is
mounted on the camera.
VIDEO :
Choose this position when the auto iris
control lens requiring video signal such as
WV-LA8B, WV-LA16B, WV-LA25B, WV-LA50B,
is mounted on the camera.

(6) Electronic Light Control ON/OFF Switch
(ELC ON/OFF)
OFF :
Choose this position used with an auto iris lens.
ON :
Choose this position used with a fixed or
manual iris lens.
See page 6 for more details.
(7) Video Output Connector (VIDEO)
A 1.0 Vp-p/75 ohms composite video signal is
provided at this connector.
(8) AC Power Cord
(9) AC 24V In Terminal (AC 24V IN)
This terminal accepts 24V AC power source (19.5V -
28V). Be sure to connect grounding lead to the GND
terminal.
Cautions :
1. Connect this to a 24V AC class 2 power supply
only.
2. To prevent fire or shock hazard, the UL listed
wire VW-1, style 1007 should be used for the
cable for AC 24V Input Terminal.
ELC (Electronic Light Control)
In this mode a continuously variable electronic shutter is
employed to automatically control exposure times in the
CCD Image Sensor, according to the incoming light level.
With this mode selected, fixed or manual iris lens can be
used instead of an ALC type lens.
Cautions :
1. Under bright conditions such as outdoors, use an
ALC type lens as the ELC control range is not wide
enough under these conditions.
2. Under certain unique lighting conditions, the
following may appear:
• Strong smear and/or blooming on high light objects
such as spot lights or windows.
• Noticeable flicker on the picture.
Should these phenomena occur, use an ALC lens
3. When using in the ELC mode with a fixed iris lens,
the depth of field of the image may be less than
that obtained by using an ALC lens. Depth of field
varies inversely with the iris opening. Thus, using
this camera in the ELC mode with the fixed iris lens
fully opened will result in less depth of field than if
an ALC lens was used. (And distant objects in the
picture might not be in focus).

■ WV-BP104
1. A power supply of 24V AC 60 Hz is required.
2. Connect the power cable to the 24V AC In Terminal
(9) on the rear pane! of the camera.
24V AC

GO Hz .
Video Cable
1. It is recommended to use a video monitor whose
resolution is at least equal to the camera’s,
2, Terminate the camera output with 75-ohm resistor
at the furthest end of its cable run.
• It is recommended to use 75-ohm coaxial cable.
• Always set the last monitor’s termination switch
to 75 ohms, and set the termination switches
of intermediate monitors to high impedance (Hi-Z)
position.

• The maximum extensible coaxial cable length
between the camera and the monitor is shown
in the table 1. Since cable quality varies among
manufactures, verify video quality before final
installation if maximum lengths are to be used.

3. Wiring precautions:
• Do not bend coaxial cable into a curve whose radius
is smaller than 10 times the cables diameter.
• Never staple the cable-not even with circular
staples. Mismatching will occur.
• Never crush or pinch the cable.
All of these will change the impedance of the cable
and cause poor picture quality.
