PRECAUTIONS
■
■■
■In case of problem
Do not use the camera if smoke or a strange odour comes
from the unit, or if it seems not to function correctly. Disconnect
the power cord immediately, and consult your dealer (or a
Sanyo Authorized Service Centre).
■
■■
■Do not open or modify
Do not open the cabinet, as it may be dangerous and cause
damage to the unit. For internal settings and repairs, consult
your dealer (or a Sanyo Authorized Service Centre).
■
■■
■Do not put objects inside the unit
Make sure that no metal objects or flammable substance get
inside the camera. If used with a foreign object inside, it could
cause a fire, short-circuits or damages.
If water or a liquid gets inside the camera, disconnect the
power cord immediately, and consult your dealer (or a Sanyo
Authorized Service Centre). Be careful to protect the camera
from rain, sea water, etc.
■
■■
■Be careful when handling the unit
To prevent damages, do not drop the camera or subject it to
strong shock or vibration.
■
■■
■Install away from electric or magnetic fields
If installed close to a TV, radio transmitter, magnet, electric
motor, transformer, audio speakers the magnetic field they
generate will distort the image.
■
■■
■Protect from humidity and dust
To prevent damages to the camera, do not install it where
there is greasy smoke or steam, where the dampness may get
too high, or where there is a lot of dust.
■
■■
■Protect from high temperatures
Do not install close to stoves, or other heat generating devices,
such as spotlights, etc., or where it could be subject to direct
sunlight, as that could cause deformation, discoloration or
other damages.
Be careful when installing close to the ceiling, in a kitchen or
boiler room, as the temperature may raise to high levels.
Install where the temperature range will stay between –10°C
and 50°C. (no condensation)
■
■■
■Cleaning
• Dirt can be removed from the cabinet by wiping it with a soft
cloth. To remove stains, wipe with a soft cloth moistened
with a soft detergent solution and wrung dry, then wipe dry
with dry soft cloth.
• Do not use benzine, thinner or other chemical product on
the cabinet, as that may cause deformation and paint
peeling. Before using a chemical cloth, make sure to read
all accompanying instructions. Make sure that no plastic or
rubber material comes in contact with the cabinet for a long
period of time, as that may cause damage or paint peeling.

Please use a DC type auto-iris lens (sold separately).
1Remove the lens mount cap from the camera.
2Install the auto-iris lens.
CS mount type lens
Carefully align the lens mount with the camera opening, then turn the lens slowly to install it.
C mount type lens
To allow for flange-back adjustment, install the C-mount adaptor (option) on the lens mount,
then carefully align the lens mount with the camera opening and turn the lens slowly to install
it.
3Connect the lens plug to the lens iris output connector (LENS) on the side of the
camera.
When using lenses from other makers, the plug shape may not correspond to the terminal on
the camera. In such a case, remove the original plug and using a soldering iron, connect the
supplied lens iris plug according to the diagram. (Refer to page 6.)
Check the lens mount
Do not use a lens if the length “L” is more than 5mm. That may damage
the camera and prevent proper installation.

■Flange-back adjustment
If the pick-up surface is not correctly positioned with relation to the lens focal point, the picture
will be out of focus (in particular when using auto-iris power zoom lenses, sold separately). If that
is the case, adjust the flange-back position as described below.
1Using a + screwdriver, loosen the flange-back lock screw (M2:+).
2Set the zoom lens to the maximum telephoto position, set the focus using the focus ring on
the lens.
3Set the zoom lens to the maximum wide angle position, set the focus using the flange-back
adjustment dial.
4Repeat steps 2 and 3, until the image stays in focus when changing from a telephoto shot to
a wide angle shot. When the setting is complete, tighten the flange-back lock screw.

CONNECTIONS
Basic connection for monitoring or recording
The peripheral devices (VCR, monitor, lens, etc.), AC
adaptor and cables are sold separately.
1Make the video signal connection between the camera
and the monitor or time lapse VCR.
2Connect the power supply.
• If using a commercially-available 24 V AC adapter,
always be sure to connect the ground wire (18AWG or
higher) to the ground terminal. (Figure 1)
• If using a 12 V DC power supply, make the connections
as shown in Figure 2.
Note:
• In order to avoid any problems with the camera and the
power supply, take sufficient care to ensure that the
polarities are correct when connecting the power supply.
3Insert the plug of this power cord into a wall outlet.
The POWER indicator (A) will light. Adjust the picture on
the monitor using the Brightness and Contrast controls etc.

■Coaxial cable type and maximum length
• Cable type RG-59U (3C-2V), 250 m maximum.
• Cable type RG-6U (5C-2V), 500 m maximum.
• Cable type RG-11U (7C-2V), 600 m maximum.

1
This should normally be set to the down (AI) position.
Use a manual or fixed iris lens and set the lens aperture to the
shortest F stop. Set the switch 1to the up (EI) position.
Note:
Please refer to the specifications for dynamic range of the
electronic iris.
CAUTION:
• The electronic iris is suitable for normal indoor use. When
the switch 1is set to the up (EI) position, do not use an
auto-iris lens.
• If used under fluorescent light, the image may flicker. In
such a case, change to incandescent lighting or set the
switch 1to the down (AI) position and use an auto-iris
lens.
• When shooting bright subjects, pay attention to the light
angle in order to avoid or minimize the smear phenomenon
effect.
When using an auto-iris lens (for indoor/
outdoor use)
Set the switch 1to the down (AI) position.
CAUTION:
If conditions are outside the electronic iris operation range or
more than the maximum illumination, it will cause saturation of
the CCD. In that case, use a manual iris lens.

This camera has two different backlight
correction functions: multi-spot
photometry (MULTI) and center focus
photometry (CENT). The normal setting
(switch 3and 4) is the down position,
but you can change the switch 3or 4
setting in accordance with the backlight
conditions.
Note:
• When using the backlight compensation function, set the
switch 3or 4to the up position. When not using the
function, set the switch 3and 4to the down (OFF)
position.
• When MULTI mode is set, scenes with no backlighting may
appear extremely dark and the object may appear over-
exposed. If this happens, move the switch 4to the up
(CENT) position.
(MULTI mode: 64 sections)
(CENT mode)
• MULTI mode: Use this position when applying backlight
compensation to the whole of the screen.
• CENT mode: Use this position when applying backlight
compensation to only the central portion of
the screen.

When using a camera switcher to connect 2 cameras or more
to one monitor, there may be a vertical roll of the images when
switched. In such a case, set as described below.
1Set the switch 6to the up (LL) position.
2
Switch the display on the monitor from camera 1 to camera 2.
Adjust the Line PHASE volume on camera 2 until the
vertical roll of the image stops.
If more than two cameras are used, please repeat this
procedure for all the cameras.
CAUTION:
If the vertical roll cannot be corrected by setting the Line
PHASE volume on camera 2, try setting the Line PHASE
volume on camera 1. If it still cannot be corrected, please
check that the polarity of the power cords of all connected
devices is correct.
