PRECAUTIONS
In ca e 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 object in ide 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.
In tall away from electric or magnetic field
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 du t
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 temperature
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.

Check the len mount
Do not use a lens if the length “L” is more than 5 mm. That may damage the camera and prevent
proper installation.
In tallation of a DC type auto-iri len ( old eparately)
A 1/3 inch CS mount type lens without EE amplifier circuit that only uses a DC power source. This camera can
receive (the A.I. LENS switch to the DC type) a CS mount type lens without the need of an adaptor.
If the lens plug shape or wiring does not correspond, please install the supplied plug as indicated in the pin
layout table.
CAUTION:
When using an auto-iris lens, the supplied clamping core must be installed on the lens wire (see Fig. 1), in
order to prevent electromagnetic interference to the other devices connected.

SETTINGS
The illustration shows the factory default settings for the switches in the camera setup section. Depending on
the camera installation location and conditions of use, it may be necessary to select other settings, without
having to make adjustments. The selected settings can be confirmed using the on-screen menu.
If adjustments are required, they can be entered using on-screen adjustment sub-menus (see
ADJUSTMENTS, page 16).
High peed electronic hutter (ES) etting
Normally, the three speed setting switches (1, 2 and 3) for the high speed electronic shutter are all set to the
OFF position. This sets the electronic shutter speed to 1/50 sec. The three switches in the camera setup
section can be set as indicated in table A to select one of the 8 speeds available.
Note :
•When using the high speed electronic shutter, the BLC switch must be set to the OFF position.
•Using the high speed electronic shutter indoors with low lighting, will give darker pictures. In such a case,
add some lights to make sure the lighting is sufficient. If the lighting is very bright, pay attention to the
light angle in order to avoid or minimize the smear phenomenon effect.
•If IRIS is set to EI (electronic iris mode), then the high speed electronic shutter speed will not correspond
to the set speed.

SETTINGS
•PRESET 2 (Basic setting, see Fig. 2)
The windows are regrouped in 2 sections (W1 and 4; and W0, 2 and 3) and the lens iris is set
automatically so that the backlight correction is optimum for the section composed of windows W 1
and 2. This setting is recommended when the subject will be centred in the image.
•MANUAL 1 (or MANUAL 2) (Fig. 1, 3)
The size and position of window W4, and the windows (W0 - 4) distribution (WINDOW WEIGHTING)
can be set manually to control a bigger area of the screen (e.g. when the subject will be moving in the
screen area) and stored under one of the two manual settings.
OFF: Fixed backlight compensation
Note :
•The backlight compensation will operate when using an auto-iris lens (DC or VIDEO type).
•If in the “MENU FOR ADJUSTMENT”, AGC is set to OFF, the backlight compensation will not operate.
Iri level etting
The iris is set using the IRIS AI (Auto-Iris)/EI (Electronic Iris) switch (10) in the camera setup section.
AI: Initial setting. When using a DC type auto-iris lens, the iris level settings can then be entered in the
adjustment sub-menu (see page 18).
EI: Electronic iris mode setting.
Note: If the AGC switch is set to OFF, setting the IRIS switch to EI will not set the electronic iris mode.
