1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
•Be sure to read the instructions in this section carefully before use.
•Make sure to observe the instructions in this manual as the conventions of safety symbols and messages
regarded as very important precautions are included.
•We also recommend you keep this instruction manual handy for future reference.
Safety Symbol and Message Conventions
Safety symbols and messages described below are used in this manual to prevent bodily injury and property
damage which could result from mishandling. Before operating your product, read this manual first so you are
thoroughly aware of the potential safety hazards as well as understand the safety symbols and messages.
■When Installing the Unit
•Install the unit only in a location that can
structurally support the weight of the unit and the
mounting bracket. Doing otherwise may result in
the unit falling down and causing personal injury
and/or property damage.
•Ensure all screws are tightened. The unit may fall
off if insufficiently secured, resulting in possible
personal injury.
•To prevent lightning strikes, install the unit at least
five meters away from a lightning rod, and yet
within the protective range (angle of 45 degrees) of
the lightning conductor. Lightning strikes may
cause a fire, electric shock or personal injury.
■When Installing the Unit
•To prevent fires, electric shock, personal injury or
damage to property, refer all repairs to the dealer
from whom the unit was purchased. Installation
also requires extensive technical knowledge and
experience.
•Avoid installing the unit in locations exposed to sea
breezes or corrosive gas. Mounts may become
corroded, eventually causing the unit to fall off,
which could result in personal injury.
•Take care when handling the sharp edges of the
metal case, as injuries to the hand could result.
•Have the unit periodically inspected by the dealer.
If screws or other metal parts become excessively
rusty, the unit could fall off, potentially causing
personal injury.
•Keep the combustibles and wires as far as possible
from a heater (C-CH100FH only) because fires or
electric shock could result.
•To avoid burns, do not touch a heater (C-CH100FH
only).
■When the Unit is in Use
•Do not stand or sit on, nor hang down from the unit
as this may cause it to fall down or drop, resulting
in personal injury and/or property damage.
•Use the dedicated power supply unit CC-5941B for
the unit. Note that the use of other adaptor may
cause a fire.
•To prevent potential harm to fingers when closing
the housing cover, do not operate both stays
simultaneously. Instead, be sure to operate the
stays individually.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if mishandled, could
result in death or serious personal injury.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if mishandled, could
result in moderate or minor personal injury, and/or property damage.

2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
TOA's C-CH100 and C-CH100FH are rainproof outdoor camera housings to protect video cameras and their
lenses from a direct sunlight, rain and wind. The C-CH100FH comes with a heater and fan.
3. HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
•Avoid applying extremely strong force to the unit when opening or closing the camera housing cover.
Frequent application of force may cause damage to a stay function.
•Use suitable nuts and bolts for the construction and material of the wall when mounting the unit to the wall.
(Nuts and bolts for wall mounting are not supplied with the unit.)
•To clean the unit, wipe with a soft cloth dipped in a neutral cleanser. Never use benzine, thinner or other
volatile liquids. The unit's case may be deformed or its finish discolored.
•This housing meets the rain-proof requirements of the IEC529 IP33 Standard, and is designed to be
resistant to rain hitting it at angles from 90 degrees vertical to 60 degrees above horizontal. Avoid installing
the housing in locations that may be exposed to splashing water or jet streams hitting it from below. Also
take care to install the housing within a tilt angle range of from 60 degrees above horizontal to 70 degrees
below, as rainwater could collect in the housing, causing image fogging and possible camera damage.

Caution Take care when handling the sharp edges of the metal case, as injuries to the
hand could result.
To prevent potential harm to fingers when closing the cover, do not operate both
stays simultaneously. Instead, be sure to operate the stays individually.
6.1. Standard Installation Procedure
6.1.1. Opening the cover
1. Undo the two cover latches ③.
2. Raise the cover ②.
3. Move the sliding cover stays ⑧outward until they click into their locking positions.
6.1.2. Closing the cover
1. Press the lock release button ⑦at the top of each stay and slide the stays individually.
2. Secure the cover in place with the safety latches.

6.2. Hanging Installation Procedure
6.2.1. Opening the cover
1. While holding the bottom of the camera housing base ①with one hand, undo the cover latches ③and
slowly lower the base to its full stop.
Note: Failure to hold the base when undoing the latches could result in the base falling suddenly and
possibly damaging the camera.
2. Move the sliding cover stays ⑧outward until they click into their locking positions.
6.2.2. Closing the cover
1. While pressing the lock release buttons ⑦individually, raise the camera housing base.
2. Secure the cover in place with the safety latches ③.
7. CABLE ENTRY
1. Two cord entry bushings ⑪and ⑫are located at the bottom of the base ①. Select either bushing that
matches with the cable diameter to use.
2. Remove the bushing cap first, and then a waterproof/dustproof rubber sheet from the bushing.
3. Run the cable through the bushing.
4. Turn the bushing cap to adjust the bushing diameter so that there is no gap between bushing and cable. If
the gap is created, wrap the self-adhesive butyl rubber tape round the cable entry area in order to prevent
raindrops from getting into the unit.
5. Ensure that the cable is secured by lightly pulling it.

Keep wires as far as possible from a heater
(C-CH100FH only) because fires or electric
shock could result.
To avoid burns, do not touch a heater
(C-CH100FH only).
Be sure to use an optional 24 VAC adapter (CC-5941B) for 24 VAC power.
Failure to do this could cause fires.

8.1. When not Using a Pan/Tilt Drive
Connect the power input terminal block inside the housing's rear panel as follows.
8.1.1. C-CH100FH
The 24 VAC terminal functions as a terminal to relay the 24 VAC camera's power. Switching on the power
after connecting the 24 VAC cable supplies the power to a fan and a heater.

8.2.1. Modifying the housing cable
Remove the solderless terminal and mount the 4-pin connector supplied with the zoom lens. When a wire
does not snugly fit into the connector terminal hole, extend the wire that mates with the terminal hole. Connect
wire No. 7 to pin No. 1, wire No. 9 to pin No. 3, and wire No. 10 to pin No. 4.
Insulate unused solderless terminals with heat-contracted tube or tape.

9. SAFETY WIRE INSTALLATION
A safety wire can be installed to prevent the unit from falling off. When installing, connect a wire hook to the
suspension wire entry hole ⑤(5 mm in diameter).
Note: Check to confirm the length, diameter, and hook strength of the safety wire before installing since the
impact of the unit's fall onto the floor is quite great.
