LENS ADJUSTMENT
Before sending the camera out for repair, check the items below.
If the problem persists after checking these items, contact
your service center.
■If no image appears
Is the coaxial cable attached securely?
Are the power and voltage normal?
Has the iris of the lens inside the camera been
adjusted correctly (with the level volume) ?
Is there adequate illumination?
■If the image is unclear
Is the lens in focus?
Is the lens dirty?
Dirt or fingerprints on the lens can adversely affect the
images. Gently wipe any dirt or fingerprints off the lens
with a soft cloth or lens cleaning paper and cleaning

④Setting Monitor Synchronization (24 VAC adaptor users)
The camera offers V-phase adjustment over 360°. Vertical
sync disturbance may occur when a switcher is used to switch
between multiple cameras connected to one monitor.
To prevent vertical sync disturbance, adjust ④*.
CAUTION: When using the 12 VDC adaptor, sync setting is
set to internal sync.
⑤Adjusting Level Volume
If the entire image is too dark or bright, or the bakclight
compensation is not correct even after ①is set to "ON",
you need to adjust the level volume.

⑦Power connector
Connect with AC/DC power, board attached inside.
*Before making any adjustment, confirm that the cameras are
connected to the power supply with the same polarity.
To make an adjustment: While observing the video outputs
from the cameras on an oscilloscope, press the first
camera's V-phase pushbutton. Until vertical sync from
all cameras are in phase. If the first camera's adjustment phase
is insufficient, adjust the second camera's V-phase
contol in the oppposite direction until they are in phase.

E

The VC-600 and VC-610 can be either mounted to a surface (like
a ceiling or wall) or installed into the ceiling, with or without an
electrical box.
1 Use the philips screwdriver to remove the screw (C).
2 Separate upper case (A) from bottom case (D).
3 For surface mount installations, align the extension
ring (G) with the mounting surface; mark the mounting
screw holes and then drill the four holes. For in-ceiling
installations not mounting to a 4x4 electrical box,
mark the holes in the camera assembly (D) and then
drill the holes. For in-ceiling installations, (G) is not
used.
4 For in-ceiling installations, cut a hole (diameter:
2.9in./73mm) in the ceiling for outing the cables.
5 Route the power cable(s) and video cable(s) to the
installation location.
6 Align the four screw holes in the extension ring (G)
with the screw holes in the ceiling, and then secure
by tightening four screws (F). Secure the camera
assembly (D) in place with screws (F) supplied with
the unit. For in-ceiling installations, align the holes in
(D) with the holes drilled in the ceiling and secure the
camera assembly with the hardware provided. If
installing to an electrical box, secure (D) with the
screws provided.
7 Pass the power cable (I) and video cable (H) from the
camera unit through the cable hole in the ceiling.
8 Carry out the settings and adjustments to the camera.
9 Adjust the dome liner (E) so that the dome camera's
lens is visible from the camera window and then
use a philips screwdriver to attach the dome cover.
10 Connect upper case (A) and bottom case (D).
11 Tighten the screw (C).
INSTALLATION WITH ADAPTER PLATE
1. Install Adapter Plate to existing electrical box in ceiling using 2 8-32 screws.
2. Remove the extension ring from the housing. It is not needed for this
installation.
3. Perform steps 2 and 5-11 from above procedure.
