INTRODUCTION Features A DSP (Digital Signal Processor) features a Extended Dynamic Range (ExDR) and enables to shoot both bright and dark locations. The use of a CCD with a SENSE UP (X32) function realized the minimum luminous flux density for subject of 0.9 lx (F1.2, 50%, AGC 20dB) and 0.03 lx (at SENSE UP (X32)). Furthermore, we realized 0.03 lx (F1.2, 50% AGC 20dB) thanks to the function of B/W mode. A motion detector function detects the motion inside an image and emits alarm signals.

To change the mounting method, loosen the back-focus locking screw (M 2.6) using a Phillips head screwdriver, turn the back-focus adjusting ring with your fingers or the screwdriver and change the mounting method.
CONNECTION/INSTALLATION Installing the ferrite core To retain electromagnetic compatibility, use the ferrite cores provided when connecting to the lens. Video-iris lens (or galvanometnc-iris lens) Wind once IRIS VIDEO DC Ferrite core Wire clamp Notes: • Install the ferrite cores within 50 mm of the camera-side connectors. (Fasten the ferrite core with the wire clamp provided.) • If the LENS cable is short, please connect the cable to the camera without winding the cable around the ferrite core.
MEMO • If thin cables are used (i.e. with a high resistance), a significant voltage drop will occur when the unit is at its maximum power consumption. Either use a thick cable to restrict the voltage drop at the camera side to below 10%, or place the power supply near to the camera. If voltage drop occurs during operation, the performance will be unstable. • Attach the cable conductors so that they do not come into contact with the drop prevention wires.
CONNECTION/INSTALLATION Mounting the camera When mounting the camera on a fixer, pan/ tilt, etc., use the camera mounting screw hole located on the camera-mounting bracket.
q IRIS VIDEO DC w Installation of camera • Mounting from the bottom This camera is originally designed to be mounted from the bottom, as shown q. The hole is standard photographic panhead screw size (1/4-20 UNC). Example the Fixing unit or Pan/Tilt unit. • Mounting from the top Remove the CAMERA MOUNTING BRACKET from the bottom of the camera by removing two fixing screws as shown w. Attach the CAMERA MOUNTING BRACKET to the top, then mount the camera on the Fixing Unit as shown e.
CONNECTION/INSTALLATION Lens adjustment Connect the camera according to the connection method, turn it on, display an image on the monitor, and check the image. The camera has been factory-adjusted to the best position, but it may need to be adjusted according to the object conditions or combination of lenses. If the image is unnatural, adjust it as follows: (Also read the instruction manual of the lens.
Back focus adjustment Back focus adjustment Be sure to make back-focus adjustments when changing the lens mounting method or using a different lens. If required, adjust it as follows: ● To make accurate back focus adjustments, use the electronic shutter and the ND filter, and carry out the following adjustments in a state where the lens iris is released. (The ND filter acts to reduce the amount of incident light entering the lens evenly over the entire wavelength band.
CONNECTION/INSTALLATION Auto white balance control adjustment Each light source has its own colour temperature. Therefore, when the main light source lighting an object is changed, the white balance should be adjusted again by pressing the AWC button.
