Digital CMOS Camera C16240-20UP / C16240-20UP01 Instruction manual_Ver.1.3
AC adapter
When unplugging the power supply cord, do not pull on the cord. Remove the
plug from the outlet to avoid causing electric shock or fire.
When unplugging the power supply cord, do not pull on the cord, but remove the
plug from the camera to avoid breakdown of the AC adapter or the camera.
Connecting and disconnecting cables
Always turn off the power supply of the peripheral device before connecting and
disconnecting cables.
Mounting the camera
When mounting the camera to a tripod or other fixture, use the base plate. Be
careful that the mounting screw does not enter more than 8 mm from the surface
of the base plate. Screwing it in further can impair normal operation.
Mounting the C-mount Lens (C16240-20UP)
Be careful not to screw the lens more than 7 mm into the C-mount of the camera.
Doing so can scratch the protective glass. (Some wide-angle lenses in particular
can have a thread of 7 mm or more.)
When using F-mount (C16240-20UP01)
An F-mount adapter can be subject to light leaks due to the mating flange
mechanism. When used with a high sensitivity, long exposure camera, such the
ORCA-Fire, it may be possible to detect photons originating from the F-mount
light leakage. In this case, it is recommended to create a dark condition for the
camera such as a dark room, dark box or wrap the F-mount flange area with a
dark cloth. Be careful maintain the clearance distances in the venting areas of
the camera for proper cooling air flow.
Shipping precautions
When transporting the camera by truck, ship, airplane, etc., wrap it securely in
packaging material or something similar.
Strong impact
Do not subject the camera to strong shocks (such as dropping it). Doing so can
damage the camera.
Operating environment
This camera is designed and tested for use in an industrial environment. If this
camera is used in residential areas, EMI (electro-magnetic interference) may
occur. This camera must not be used in residential areas.
Disposal
When disposing of the camera, take appropriate measures in compliance with
applicable regulations regarding waste disposal and correctly dispose of it
yourself, or entrust disposal to a licensed industrial waste disposal company. In
any case, be sure to comply with the regulations in your country, state, region or
province to ensure the camera is disposed of legally and correctly.
