Instruction Manual 4
FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
There are 4 control switches that are used for setting the special features.
The switches are for Line Lock, Auto Electronics Shutter, Back Light Compensation,
Auto White Balance and Lens Type Choice.
1. Internal Line Lock (INT/LL)
The Line Lock is designed to stabilize the color picture. Always switch
it to the down side to have this function on. Line Lock sync is only available
when using an AC Power source. It is unavailable with 12 volt DC power.
2. Auto Electronics Shutter (AES)
When using a DC Drive or Video Drive Auto Iris Lens, turn off the AES.
When a Fixed iris or Manual Iris Lens is used, turn the AES on to
adjust the shutter speed automatically.
3. Back Light Compensation (BLC)
Under AES mode, this function can adjust the auto exposure to make
the object clear when it is too dark or the back light is too bright.
4. Automatic Gain Control (AGC)
AGC can automatically amplify the video signal to compensate for low
light environments.

CONNECTIONS
1. Keep the camera's power OFF during installation.
2. Make sure that the input voltage is correct before installation.
The camera may be damaged if the voltage is incorrect.
3. Terminate the camera output to 75ohms. Use 75-ohm coaxial cable
(RG-59/U, RG-6/U, RG-11/U). Always set the last monitor termination
switch to 75 ohms, and set the termination switches of intermediate
monitors to HIGH (HI-Z).
4. The table below shows the maximum recommended cable length.

Troubleshooting
Problem What to Check
- No picture appears on the
monitor
Is the system power on?
Is the cable connected properly?
Has the lens cap been removed?
Is the monitor properly adjusted?
- The picture is not clear Is the lens mount ring correct?
Is the lens clean?
Is the lens properly focused?
Is the monitor terminated properly?
◎Note:
