5.2.7 Tests prior to switching on voltage
Attention!
Prior to commissioning, all tests as indicated by the national regula-
tions have to be executed. In addition, it is mandatory that the proper
functioning of the operating device in accordance with this user man-
ual and all other applicable regulation has been executed.
Attention!
Incorrect installation and operation of the camera may lead to a loss of
warranty!
5.3 Step 3: Adjusting the picture
Adjustment and optimization of the camera picture such as angle of view, zoom, focus,
back light compensation, or IR cut filter are exclusively carried out electronically via the
camera’s control interface. Mechanical settings at the camera’s block module (Sony
FCB-IX11AP) are neither necessary nor allowed!
For example, control functions can either be operated manually by the means of a Con-
trol Board which has a serial interface (RS-422) and which supports the VISCA protocol
(Sony FCB-IX11AP) or interactively via the web interface of a video server (figure 5.8) or
the FCB Control Panel (figure 5.7). The transmission rate of the sending and the receiv-
ing end has to be synchronous (figure 5.6).

Information!
If not determined differently, the default setting of the ExCam®mini-
Zoom is wide angle. This means that after the camera has been dis-
connected from the power supply and has been rebooted, it is set to
wide angle mode and standard focus (asuto functions are disabled).
In case that the ExCam miniZoom is supposed to resume certain set-
tings after the reboot, it is possible to configure „PRESETS“ via the
FCB Control Panel, the video server or the VISCA Control Board.

5.3.1 Work preparation
Attention!
Please carry out any preoperational work carefully and in accordance
with the applicable regulations.
Note: Depending on the zone classification (DIN EN 60079-10), it might
be necessary to obtain a work permit/clearance! When adjusting the
camera settings potentially explosive atmosphere must be avoided by
any means!
5.3.2 Opening the pressure-resistant housing
Opening the pressure resistance housing is not permitted. Any maintenance or repair
work must only be carried out by the manufacturer. In case of noncompliance, ATEX cer-
tification is voided and any claim under guarantee expires.

Doc.-ID: 131106-PT03BA-SS-ExCam miniZoom_en_rev.01, Seite 19 von 24
6 Maintenance / Servicing / Alterations
The national regulations concerning the maintenance and servicing of electrical devices
within hazardous areas are to be observed.
The required maintenance intervals are specific to the individual devices. The operating
company has to determine these intervals depending on the application parameters. Dur-
ing maintenance, focus has to be put on checking parts concerning the ignition protection
category such as the integrity of the housing, the sealings and the cable glands. If
maintenance measures are necessary they have to be initiated and/or executed.
7 Repairs and Maintenance
Repairs must only be carried out with original parts of SAMCON Prozessleittechnik
GmbH. Damaged pressure-resistant housings have to be replaced completely. If in
doubt, return the applicable part to SAMCON Prozessleittechnik GmbH.
Repairs concerning the explosion protection must only be carried out by SAMCON
Prozessleittechnik GmbH or a qualified electrical technician authorized by SAMCON
Prozessleittechnik GmbH in accordance with nationally applied regulations. Rebuilding of
or alterations to the devices are not permitted.
8 Disposal / Recycling
When disposing of the device, nationally applicable regulations must be observed.
This document is subject to alterations and additions.
