subject to direct sunlight.
Sunlight shinning directly onto the WAT-902DM series lens
can cause damage to the CCD.
Select a stable place for installation of the WAT-902DM
series.
Use a support of durable strength around an installation
position on a ceiling or wall when a camera stand or tripod is
used.
Do not move the WAT-902DM series with the cables
connected.
Before moving the WAT-902DM series, always remove the
video cable and power cable from the rear of the camera first.
Avoid using the WAT-902DM series near any strong
electromagnetic field.
After installing into main equipment, if the WAT-902DM series
is exposed to electromagnetic waves causing the monitored
image to become distorted, we recommend the camera be
shielded by appropriate protective casing.

If any of the following problems occur when using the WAT-902DM
series,
An optimal picture cannot be obtained, after checking that all the cables
and connections are correctly in place
Smoke or any unusual odor emerges from the WAT-902DM series.
An object becomes embedded or a quantity of liquid seeps into the
camera housing
More than the recommended voltage or/and amperage has been applied
to the WAT-902DM series by mistake
Anything unusual occurring to any equipment connected to the WAT-
902DM series.
Disconnect the camera immediately according to the following
procedures:
①Switch off the main power supply to the camera.

Set-up and Operation
1) Ensure that the power to the WAT-902DM series and the peripheral
equipment is turned off before making any connections.
2) Remove the lens mount cap from the WAT-902DM series and attach the
CS-mount lens. Use the optional C-mount adaptor (30CMA-R) when a
C-mount lens is used.
3) Connect the iris cable to ⑤AUTO-IRIS SOCKET on the WAT-902DM
series when an auto-iris lens is being used.
4) Connect ⑥VIDEO OUT on the WAT-902DM series with the monitor,
using a coaxial cable with 75Ω impedance, such as an RG-58/U or an
RG-6/U. Select a monitor with the same television system as the
WAT-902DM series: EIA or CCIR. A monitor with more than 600TV lines
is recommended.
5) Insert the power plug of the power adaptor into ⑨POWER IN on the
back panel of the WAT-902DM series. Confirm that the power adaptor is
not connected to the power supply before insertion of the power plug into
⑨POWER IN.
6) Turn on the power to the WAT-902DM series, monitor and all other allied
equipment. When a picture cannot be obtained on the monitor, or a
problem occurs, check and follow the procedure mentioned in the
【Problems and Trouble Shooting】section.
7) After following the procedure below and the picture is still out of focus,
open the iris fully and loosen ③FOCUSING ADJUSTMENT SCREWS
and move the lens forwards until a clear picture is obtained.
Adjust the focus and iris to the best position

on the lens.
Video Auto-iris Lens
Adjust the focus on the lens.
Adjust the iris level on the camera, then

adjust the focus on the lens. See below.
Iris Level Adjustment (for DC auto-iris lenses only)
Adjust ④IRIS LEVEL VOLUME placed on the side
of the unit until an acceptable light level is attained.
No change will occur if a video iris lens or manual
iris lens is fitted.
8) Select any required shutter speed mode by the ⑦AE MODE CONTROL
