Page 7: Description
When in doubt, please consult your local representative or ROS for assistance. The ROS CE-X, 36:1 camera is illustrated by the installation drawings in the appendix. The camera housing is constructed of hard-anodized aluminum and is designed to be operated in natural but hostile environments. - Page 8 The Universal Interface circuit board includes circuits that condition the input power, protecting the camera electronics from overload voltage or accidental application of power with reversed polarity. In addition, circuits on this board generate the camera control commands sent to the zoom camera module in order to achieve control of Focus position, Zoom position, and Exposure Settings.

ROS can furnish basic software for enabling computer control through and RS485 (or RS-485) communications link. The serial RS485 code for camera commands can also be furnished by ROS for users that prefer to develop their own customized software. 51-17568 REV B... -
Page 13: Other Configurations
2.8.3 Other Configurations CE-X, 36:1 Cameras can be furnished with other interconnections in order to meet customer’s requirements. Typically, the CE-X, 36:1 cameras are controlled using bipolar signals (+/- 12V to 1 pin) as indicated under 2.8.1 above. Cameras can also be configured for control with unipolar or differential input signals instead of bipolar. - Page 14 accomplish these changes. The internal electronics assembly must be temporarily removed from the housing and changes made. The Mode Selection Board is clearly accessible so that the switches can be operated easily. There are two separate DIP switch assemblies on the board labeled S1 and S2. S1 has 8 and S2 has 6 individual switches.

Page 17: Camera Operation
3 CAMERA OPERATION 3.1 GENERAL Operation of the CE-X, 36:1 Camera is straightforward, but there are some differences, which may not be familiar to personnel accustomed to operating older closed circuit TV system. INSTALLATION For ease of mounting, the CE-X, 36:1 camera has a mounting saddle, integral to its housing, with two 1/4-20 UNC tapped holes on 2.00 inch mounting centers. -
Page 18: Zoom Control
To restore automatic Exposure Control simultaneously operate the Zoom towards WIDE and the Exposure switch towards DECR. 3.4 ZOOM CONTROL The zoom lens operates whenever a Zoom switch on a remote control unit is operated towards either the Tele or Wide positions. The zoom function continues as long as the switch is depressed, until the lens zoom limit is reached. -

The serial code for camera commands can also be furnished by ROS for users who prefer to develop their own customized software. -
Page 20: Adjust Lla In Bipolar/Unipolar/Differential Mode
The GOOD QUALITY RG-59 cables for this camera must be selected with good performance in video transmission. Please consult ROS if additional assistance in selecting optimum cables is desired. For cases where the camera is going to be operated over extended lengths of coaxial or twisted pair cabling, long-line amplifier driver circuits are included within the camera. -

RS-232 commands. When the camera is operated in this configuration, some RS-232 commands can be sent in order to query and adjust the LLA setting. Please Contact ROS for more details. 3.10 OVERLAY CONTROL The camera overlay can be turned off or displayed at different positions on the screen. This is performed by simultaneously actuating Zoom Tele and Focus Far. - Page 22 the camera overlay off. If actuated again when in OFF mode, the overlay appears in the upper left position, and the cycle starts over. Each new setting is saved in the flash memory of the microcontroller interface and the overlay position is retained through power cycles. Upon power up the camera overlay will display the current mode of operation (e.g.

Page 23: Theory Of Operation
4 THEORY OF OPERATION 4.1 UNIVERSAL INTERFACE BOARD ASSEMBLY The schematic diagram of the Universal Interface Board Assembly (Drawing 51-11098) is included in the appendix to this manual. The schematic illustrates the Power Conditioning circuits as well as circuits required to decode Focus, Zoom and Exposure commands. This drawing also illustrates the elements that make up the Long Line Amplifier driver circuits. -

incoming control signals. The outputs of the inverters are logic levels and are sent to a microcontroller. The microcontroller decodes the logic signals and sends RS- 232 messages to the camera module to enable the selected control function.. The microcontroller messages to the camera are conditioned by the MAX332 (U5) and then sent to the camera through J7 pins 5 and 6. -
Page 25: Microcontroller
Many times a quick call to the ROS Technical Support Department will help in restoring operation with minimum effort. Most failures in the field turn out to be cabling problems, and the camera is typically the least likely cause. -
Page 26: Camera Disassembly
This is normally Pin 2 on the standard connector, and exits the ROS controller on the middle pin of the BNC connector on the rear panel. Normal resistance should only be a few ohms unless the system cable is extremely long. -
Page 27: Camera Troubleshooting
11 VDC < Input Voltage < 30 VDC Variations in voltage from those tabulated above may be helpful in analyzing a fault. If camera operation is less than satisfactory at this point, ROS's Technical Services Department should be contacted for assistance. -
Page 28: Maintenance
6 MAINTENANCE Maintenance of the camera is typically limited to cleaning, and maintenance of the O-ring seals on the window and rear end plate. The acrylic window should only be cleaned with a commercial lens cleaner or with a mild soap and water. Use only a soft cloth or lens tissue to avoid scratching the surfaces. -
