transformer, audio speakers the magnetic field they generate will
distort the image.
rotect 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.
rotect 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

SETTINGS
Electronic shutter settings and electronic iris
settings
When all of these switches are down, electronic shutter (1/50 sec or
auto iris setting) is enabled. The electronic shutter can be set to one
of 7 speeds as shown in Table A.
Furthermore, when all switches are up, electronic iris setting is
enabled.
Notes on the electronic shutter:
•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.
•Use a manual or fixed iris lens and set the lens aperture to the
shortest F stop. Set the switch (1 – 3) to the up position.
•The electronic iris is suitable for normal indoor use. When the
switch (1 – 3) is set to the up 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 (1 – 3) to
the down position and use an auto-iris lens.
•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.
