CONTENTS OF PACKAGE Installation of the camera must be performed by qualified service personnel in accordance with all local and national electrical and mechanical codes. Carefully remove the color camera and its accessories from the carton and verify that they were not damaged in shipment. The contents of the package includes: Color CCD camera Mini-DIN connector (for video-or dc-type auto-iris lens)
VIDEO AUTO IRIS INSTALLATION & ADJUSTMENT The camera supports video-type auto iris lenses which adjust to changing light levels. Perform the following steps to install and adjust a video-type auto iris lens. If necessary, solder the lens control wires to the connector supplied with the camera.
For ALC adjustments: To slow the reaction of the lens to changing light, set the range to the AVG setting to average the video level from the camera. Use when there are bright spots in the picture such as lights or glare from the sun.
Page 31
NAME WIRE COLOR Damp Coil - Blue Damp Coil + Drive Coil + White Drive Coil - Green Attach the DC-type auto iris lens to the lens mount on the front of the camera. Plug the connector into the auto iris jack on the back of the camera. The connector is polarized and can only be inserted into the jack one way.
BACK FOCUS ADJUSTMENT For best results, perform back focus adjustments at night or while using a #6 or #8 welder's glass in front of the lens. The focus of the camera will change slightly if the camera iris was adjusted on a light scene, then changes to a dark scene.
ZOOM LENS BACK FOCUS ADJUSTMENT The objective of back focusing a zoom lens is similar to that of a fixed focal length camera except the back focus is also adjusted to maintain the focus when "zooming" the lens in and out on a scene. Choose an object at the farthest range set for viewing with a zoom lens.
